I'd much rather come in with a strong wrestling/bjj background that stand up. It's those guys that dominate and can work on their striking.

true, and after watching mma for some time you really begin to appreciate the ground game as much as, maybe even more than striking.
you really musnt make comments like 'anyone can take a guy down'. i'd like to see someone with no mma training taking down a ufc or pride fighter today.
