Enjoy. Feel free to share and modify as suits your needs.

[pateticorecords]

whao... I am kinda' impressed with the break-down you have given. Where do we sign up? hahaha

[MasterKiller]

Or you could just fight MMA.

[sanjuro_ronin]

Or you could just fight MMA.

Or in any of the various "sub disciplines" that are already organized.

[YouKnowWho]

Or you could just fight MMA.

I believe the best order should be that you compete in:

- golden gloves boxng to test your punching skill.
- kickboxing tournament to test your kicking and punching skill.
- SC, Judo, wrestling tournament to test your throwing skill.
- BJJ tournament to test your ground game skill.
- Sanda/Shanshou tournament to test your kicking, punching, throwing skill.
- MMA tournamnet ro test everything.

You have to develop your striking skill and grappling skill separately before you can do your integration. To jump right into MMA too soon may not be the proper training order.

Nah, you don't.

We always make people compete in a couple of BJJ tournaments before they fight MMA just to get used to the speed and "full contact" aspect against someone who doesn't care if they hurt you.

But fighting isn't rocket science. Kick. Punch. Throw. Wrestle. It's not that complicated.

Not everyone SHOULD fight, obviously. But for the ones with the talent and desire, you don't have to spend 10 years prepping.

I agree to an extent.
If you truly want to test and develop your skills then, arguably, the best way is to fight the best in each specialization.
Your wrestling will be tested in MMA BUT not to the extent that it would be in competitive wrestling, same goes for your striking, grappling, etc.

MMA is the prefect vehicle to "put it all together" BUT the jury is still out (IMO) if it is the perfect venue to DEVELOP those skills.
