Missing the point.
maybe it's me.... i'll definately get told so in any case.
It isn't the art that sucks.
It isn't the school that sucks.
It isnt the sensei that sucks.
If anything sucks, it's you. You are uncommited, uncoordinated, and untrainable. If you do not put forth the effort to learn, the effort to train, and the desire to become a true student, you will not succeed.
I'm tired of reading this BB and seeing 'wing chun/bujinko/TKD/etc sucks and BJJ and MT are 't3h d34d|y' ... ' your art is only as good as you train to be.
Here's my vote that a dedicated vingtsunner can whup a lazy BJJer.
I understand that i'm a newbie to this group, and am subject to severe criticism for this thread, but i stand by my sentiments.

So how does someone who trains hard in BJJ and MT compare to this dedicated vingtsunner?

What was that analogy I used? That a good art won't make up for a bad fighter, but a bad art won't make a good fighter? There's shitty BJJ practitioners, but that doesn't mean Yellow Bamboo has any value to it whatsoever.

What does this have to do with 'Techniques and Tactics' ?

Why are they fighting? Who wants to win more? Who has more experience? Who is in the better health? Which one can stand the most pain? Which one has fought the other style before?
It's never as simple as style vs. style. You can't judge it by videoclips.

well, it has to do with the opposite of techniques and tactics... 
i wanted the opinion of those who visit this particular forum. If it should reside elsewhere, feel free to move it.

That's not necessarily true. Of course a lot of things depend on the individual and if that individual tries really hard, they could do really great things. But if all the individual is taught is crap, then they can do that really well, but it's still crap. Does this make sense? o_o

Can you judge it by long term trends in MMA competition and firsthand testimony?
