control - wrestling
striking - boxing/muay thai/karate
submissions - sambo/judo/bjj
takedowns and throws - wrestling/judo/greco
I think this would make up the true complete fighter. I remember Marc Liamon on teh first season of tuf saying something negative about Judo and I couldn't believe it. Here we have a very respected martial artist talking trash about Judo when he probably pulls gaurd and wraps his legs around his opponents like a monkey to take them down.
