As a martial arts practitioner, we are taught to respect other people's choice of martial arts etc. While many thought Karate has very high wind up time and obvious moves, they can be worked around, just that comprimises in strength etc will have to be made.

The principle of MMA combines different strengths and moves of different martial arts, I don't see how poeple not get creative with something + Karate. all i know is my brother went to an MMA gym run by Enoch the Animal for a while, and saw someone get a pretty hefty lecture on trying to use karate.

besides, when making the style function without giving nothing but massive potentially fatal openings reduces the effective strength of the moves, the style is not a good style.
