How many "raised from scratch MMA fighters" have you fought?

What do you base that opinion on?

The chances of being in a 1 on 1 evenly weighed street fight is much smaller, and even if you are, you could just use striking then.

Also, you don't need to worry about how to counter a professional BJJ master on the street. The chances of getting into a fight with someone trained in that style competantly on the street when you wern't looking for it is 1 in a billion or something.
