I could give two shits what you two are arguing about. Thats what I love about MMA, you get to see what happens when you put a great Muay Thai guy up against a BJJ practitioner, or whatever.

In MMA who wants to be strictly any school anymore? Everyone seems to be moving to a more rounded approach. Just being a strictly stand up guy will get your ass taken to the ground and submitted, just being a ground artist will get you kicked in the face. Im stating the obvious. Ill shut up.
Jeff Monson is a beast, and it's great to see him come back to ATT's main academy in South Florida to train for his fights. Really nice guy.

No, you are making excellent points! YOu won't find single styles much anymore, which was exciting back in the day.

As for the argument, Camo just needs reality in his life. MMA training is striking (Muay Thai, Boxing), Wrestling (Greco, CACC, Freestyle), and Submission (BJJ). Those styles listed are the dominant ones trained by the majority of MMA fighters.
