Dunefield,
Of all people you would question me about martial arts?
Yes I know Sambo is ground fighting. Sambo is a derived from Judo.
However, Sambo as we know it today, was far different than what it was in 1993.
Loosing a match because your back touches the ground is not ground fighting my friend. That's where the Gracies love to fight.
Combat Sambo as it is now, with it's rulesets are a direct effect from what the early UFC's and grappling matches we have today.
