No sense of a sprawl of defense to basic jiu-jitsu stuff at all was my understanding.
Well, That's cool. As far as i am concerned however, I never judge a style itself based on one school. Where I trained it we all had to spar and roll. at least to progress past level one. Since my Krav instructor was also teaching BJJ, we got quite a bit of cross training in ground work. Sorry that your experience was negative.

i didnt get to catch the name of the guy. but he was on the Elliot in the Morning Show talking about his new book an his Job
working in Israel with thier Special Ops an Security forces. when they came to the subject of Krav Maga. he mentioned that majority of the schools in the States are Watered down and Fake
like some people here mentioned earlier. but on the good side Krav Maga has come along way with more Organizational structure.

Yeah, there is alot of ego and attitude between the US Krav people and Israel Krav guys at least that's what It seems like to me. The fact is. Krav Maga evolved mostly here in the U.S. In the earlier days, it seemed like it was mostly just sloppy jujutsu with some street combatives thrown in. Alot had improved over the years. Although yes, there are always going to be some who give the art a bad name.
That's no different than the fact that since MMA and grappling has become popular on TV, Every other MA school around suddenly offers a Submission wrestling/bjj/grappling program sometimes by people who have almost no idea what they are talking about.

Lots of watered down schools selling ranks giving the style a bad name outside of it country of origin. I can respect that. Pretty similar to Tae Kwon Do in that case.

yeah i agree. i dont too much like how some MA schools jump on the bandwagon with offering Sub-wrestlin/bjj/mma on the side cause alot of times its un-qualified guys or instructors who took a few lessons an in return they
teach crappy techniques to students giving them a false sense of instruction. cause in the end..... a Qualified person from one of those camps is gonna weed you out an/or teach u a harsh lesson.
they should get a legit qualification. for example my Grandmaster in Korea , even though he has a Judo background he knew he needed more in-depth program for ground fighting so he went an signed up for Combatives an went through the course just like the rest of us humbly an got his qualifications.

But the difference, again, between something like BJJ and Krav Maga is that competition brings out someone's capabilities. If you're unsure of your instructors credentials, you can ask him how he has done in competition or how well his instructors have done in competition.

That's very good and well, but since KM is not designed for competition, I think you are trying to compare apples to oranges.
Most violent martial art?
