The focus lies on explosive power and perfect technique. And it keeps working.
Why can't other schools get the same result? It's a big mystery for me. It is almost unbelievable that a country with only 16 million inhabitants has such a big share of top fighters.

About genetics, I'm no racist, but Dutch people are statistically bigger than most. Give Badr and Remi a country full of 6 foot 6 inch guys to train with and that helps quite a lot.
