You are certainly entitled to your opinion. My point is simply this: trainging in martial arts is good for you. I do not get hung up on "this style is better than that style". Having trained for more than 22 years years, I have seen many styles, trained in many styles and have learned something from all of them. I try to keep an open mind at all times. To say any particular one is the best is an invalid statement.

It's the same on song and dance BJJ is better than Karate is better than Muay Thai is better than Shoot Fighting and so on and so on. Those that make statements about "The best style" have not expanded their skill set to see what other things they can learn.

Overall, you do what works best for you. That's All!
