I went to a KM/Combatives school where I lived in Canada for an intro class. When free sparring took place, I owned everyone. All their skill went out the window when a larger person got inside, took them to the ground and submitted them.
If KM was so good, why isn't it being used in the ring or cage for MMA?
The standard answer is, we don't do sportfighting, and it's too deadly for the cage.
BS, imho.

Wow you mean you were able to submit people that were there for an introductory class? With all of their 2 hours of experience I'm surprised
Did you submit the instructor? That would impress me.
Krav Maga is much much older than MMA and could care less about the octagon. Your butterfly guard isn't going to keep me from grabbing your hair and slamming your head into the pavement, or jamming my thumb in your eye, or biting your ear off.
I'm not interested in being the UFC champion, I'm interested in surviving if I'm attacked in an alley by 2 thugs with lead pipes. You go ahead and put the first guy into an armbar while the 2nd guy bashes your head in.
Maybe you'll get him to tap out before your brains start leaking onto the pavement.
