i wish there were more places to train sambo, i've searched everywhere and only found like 2 or 3 schools in the US, there is one actually here in florida but it's hours away, i think if it hit bigger here it would be awesome, it would be an excellent base for many fighters

Sambo is underrated. Everybody hypes Jiu Jitsu because they did their best to become marketable but I think Sambo is a better base, you learn takedowns and it is less dependend on the guard.

I train in both sports BTW;
