I'm curious, exactly what "technique" do you think you are going to use in a "real fight" that is going to be superior to MMA? That myth was blown out of the water in the first few UFC's, where there were no rules and BJJ was proven to be the superior fighting style. Biting, eye gouging, and all of that other silly stuff was proven time and time again to not work, and there is no secret technique you are going to pull off in a no rules street fight that is going to help you against a trained MMA fighter, short of pulling out a weapon. You think you're going to kick an MMA fighter in the balls and that is your secret technique?

Things like soccer kicks, knees to a downed opponent's head, and most of all the headbutt are the most devastating fighting techniques that are generally banned from MMA (with the exception of some promotions in Brazil and Japan), and in a street fight an MMA fighter is going to use all 3 of those against you...
