ive been thinking about taking judo or bjj here in my city but i know i dont have the patience to stick with it or tolerance for other people. i dont want to disrespect martial arts that i have respect for.

Yup, train all aspects of mma

Yep, I train MMA.  BJJ, muay thai, boxing.  I've trained in a variety of styles over the past 12 years, but for about the last three years or so, I've been training with Team ROC in MMA.  I've got my amateur MMA debut coming up on May 21.

I've been boxing for about 8 years; plus, I'm a purple belt in Karate and I've been training Krav Maga over the past 9 months.

Thanks man.  I'm pretty nervous about the fight, but hoping I can just default to my training and come out on top.  My opponent has changed in the past couple of days, from a wrestler to a guy from a well trained MMA school in the area.  Not really sure how to prepare for him now, so I guess I'll just have to go in blind since we're both 0-0.

@Garcia what do you think of Krav Maga's application to MMA? I've been wanting to ask someone who knew for a while.

I train BJJ. Recreation only - no tournaments, no fights.

@Jeremy It gives you great cardio and helps you being even more aware about what's going on around you; besides that, there's a lot of striking and grappling, wich is always useful. I train Krav Maga twice a week, two hours a day and I've seen results quite fast, so I totally recommend it.

I also train.  I practice muay thai, boxing, bjj, and traditional jiu-jitsu.  I also roll with the wrestling team at my college.  I see some application of things I've learned from krav maga and escrima as well.  Unfortunately, I can't dedicate the time to it that I would like as I have a wife and three kids, work full time and am going to med school.  So I also have no fights, but I enjoy the work ethic and the way it makes me feel.  I also enjoy that it has made me a better rock climber and outdoorsman.
