More Important-Throwing/Wrestling (Shuai) or Submission (Na)
A question for all you Chinese grapplers or grapplers in general. What do you feel is more important, throw or submit. Yes, I know both are important, I want to know which you feel is more beneficial to be better at. Please don't turn this into a Kung Fu has no grappling or Chin Na is not the same as BJJ, most all of usrecongnize that yes, Chin Na does not compare to BJJ or Judo Newaza in regards to submission. Just looking for opinions. Personally I feel for street self defense throws and wrestling are of more importance. However, for MMA competition I believe submission work to be more important. Thoughts?
