Grappling has an advantage over striking in a ring. Fact.
World class BJJ fighters can go full out with their styles in a ring. Fact.
World class strikers can't. People would die.

grapplers hold back too...they do submission moves rather than break and kill moves.
i recall seeing one fighter get a guy to submit in 30 seconds or something (frank something).. he had to hold back because he couldve snapped his arm just as quick.

I've fought matches where I could have broken people's bones if they didn't tap. That's up to them if they don't want to recognize a checkmate. That's not the sort of holding back I mean. Example, without thinking, if I were to strike you I'd probably hit you dead in the throat with a kick you wont see coming. I have to downshift out of my training so I don't hurt my opponent. BJJ doesn't train you to pop spines with a choke. Your muscle memory doesn't progress into breaks but into check mate locks. You automatically stop before lethality. It's the opposite with striking. I trained real tkd and I trained MMA(JapaneseJJ/BJJ/judo/muay thai ect. MMA is more a sport and as such is becoming perfected against itself in practice against itself. But I have a hard time explaining to MMA fans(which are quite well educated about fighting and styles)that there is a level of martial artist in the world that would straight kill four of your favorite MMA heroes at one time, in real life. It's hard to imagine, but it's paint ball against live fire.

thats if you can hit a moving target who can defend himself in the neck.
if youre fighting a guy like me that isnt a fighter then its different.
if youre fighting a guy trained to see what youre doing and defend himself them you have to be particularly lucky for him to expose his neck or chin.

Well, there are fighters, ill, and there are warriors. We enjoy watching people fight, not wage war on one another and its easy to get caught up in the theatrics of fighting.
