Could this ever become a martial art in it`s own right. Perhaps Thai for "stand up". A bit of Judo/Trad Ju-Jitsu for take downs. And BJJ for the ground work. Most of us practice for self defence and fitness reasons, but the effectiveness of what we practice in a real life situation may leave some codes a bit prone to certain attacks. "Bee"
