Note: Above is my personal positional strategy and includes an element of personal preferance. It lists my primary objective(s) from each position. For example, from the Fighting Stance (Free Motion Phase) my main objective is to either close to a clinch or shoot for a takedown. I may also strike, but scoring a knockout isn't my main focus. Instead, I tend to use strikes to counter, or to set up other attacks (clinches and takedowns).

Some of my old favorites made the list (Ruas, Taktarov, Frye), plus a few more familiar names (Gracie, Couture).

I still have my old Panther instructional tapes with Ruas, Frye, Taktarov, Kerr, Rutten and a few others.

Whoa, that was a sweet explosive move to an armbar
good to see someone win with submission from the bottom, not happending often at higherlevel mma these days.

Re: Thoughts on MMA
Hi dudes, I just wanted to ask you something...
Is it me or everyone is standing now?
I rarely have the oportunity to watch something like MMA and when I watched it a few years ago I hated it because they were laying down all the time and touching themselves and now when I saw some semi-finals they were just standing?! And not like in K-1! It was like I was watching boxing...

I apologize to everyone I've enraged. I'll try to correct myself.
