| if YOU were a fighter.. what would be ur division and style?
If you were a figher... what division would you be fighting in, whether its ur natural weight or if u prefer to cut down or bulk up. Don't say something ridiculous like if u were 200 lbs, dont' say i would wanna fight at 155... something close to ur weight.
and also what would be ur style... would u like using ur wrestling/judo/sambo to get the fight to the ground and gnp ur way to victory.... like to stand up and use muay thai/boxing... like to be on the ground for submissions?
me personally, i would cut down to 145 and fight featherweight and i would use my judo to get guys to the ground but eventually going for a sub to finish them instead of gnp. I'd probably go for a RNC, kimura or americana usually

Jeremy Horn once referred to his fighting style as "sloth-like."
I would try to imitate that.

I'd probably go for a RNC, kimura or americana usually | right now i'm 5'10" and weigh in at 212 or so. i'm definately cappable of getting to 185 w/ just a little effort so i'm gonna go middleweight. my problem w/ style is i love to strike but my kicks aren't where i would like them so i'd stand for a min and see how it goes then go to the ground. my gnp is good and my subs are coming along.
so id be a middleweight who would more than likely gnp you. dont call me okami either.

Light Heavy, and maybe for strength advantage i'd drop to 185, as a former nationally ranked wrestler i'd be all about the takedown, gnp, but i've trained in bjj as well so I could avoide subs and utilize them if i needed to. By the way I actually set up my takedowns unlike some of these guys now. What's going on with some of these dudes. lol. 10 years younger i'd be all about it. and if i didn't make 6 figures and have to look pretty. blah.

I would have to say 145 i am 5'8 182 right now and out of shape pretty bad. I wish it would bee 155 but watching Sherk "the middleweght" i cant compete.
I would train extensively in pure boxing, would like to become a world class boxer and add to that, BJJ would be next (my friend trains with JJ Machado so thats where i would go) and next would be muay thai and of course wrestling.

Lightweight at 163.
Better striker than grappler, Muay Thai.

Heavyweight, maybe light heavyweight. I'm as tall as Corey Hill but I could never see myself going down past light heavy
My style would be kickboxing with some wrestling and BJJ. Or just sambo.

Well I would most likely fight at 155 .. im about 5'10 180... Wrestling is my strong point... I train with urijah faber at UF... My standup is very good and I have a blue belt in BJJ... I want to have similar style to GSP, but a little more fast paced to match up with the quickness of tyson griffin.. Well rounded.. Well Rounded.. all that I think about... I would work the standup and feel them out, if that isn't going my way.. take them down and submit them.. I would prefer a submission to ground and pound... some people might think im weird for that...
