In my expirence a lot of people i've who study MMA tend to be more violent and agressive the more tradtional martial artist. I am not meaning ot offend anyone, i like martial arts, but i am wondering if mma schools are setting bad examples, or if it is just a select few punks who just don't know how to behave with there new found techniques?

I have met a couple of great MMA teahcers, but never met an MMA student, who didn't seem to have anger issues. So MMA fighters, talk to me here?

I'm no MMA fighter, but I'd just like to point out that, to me, it's more of a question about the people and not the style.

How a person acts differs among individuals. You can always find individuals who are extremely competitive, violent, timid, arrogant, passive, and so-on and so-on. This applies to the martial arts, regardless of styles.

Where I train there is quite a few MMA fighters, professional and not, and in my expierence they are all very nice people that would avoid fights whenever possible, for the most part.

I think that its really about the person not the marital mart.
