I'm just curious as to which form of karate members feel translates best into mixed martial arts.
I know a lot of fighters who train in shotokan karate and say that it helps them alot with their mma. My old instructor trained in Kenpo Karate prior to MMA and said it helped a lot. Others prefer kyokushin, etc. (I've even seen this guy whoop some ass at an amateur tournament I went to.....his main discipline....kung fu)
Although there are not many schools in my area that offer true karate classes, I would like to know which one is the best for mma and maybe theres an off chance that there is a school nearby
