I will buy that arguement. I am not attacking BJJ as I myself train BJJ. My point is that if go toe-to-toe with a Wrestler I know I will have a serious challenge as wreslting is also all about groundwork and submissions. Wrestlers will not make the amateur mistakes that stand up martial artists will. In BJJ you learn to either defeat people who do not know BJJ or how to counter other BJJ moves. What you will not learn is how to counter wrestling, therefore you must be more prepared.
