Like I said, it isn't much good on the street. I don't think it's shit; it has its uses. But it is literally the least practical street style, I think.

None. But I've trained with dozens (I used to train at Tiger Muay Thai in Phuket for about a year; it has both MMA and Muay Thai available).
If you want to see the numbers, watch Fight Science documentry. It's a pretty flawed documentry, as it does not take weight into account when they measure the striking power of different martial artists. Lucky, but, all the MMA fighters in Fight Science 2 were larger than
all of the specialized strikers used in the previous episode, and guess what; they all had way lower numbers in all their strikes.
Do you really think you have a point to argue? Is an MMA fighter really going to have equal strike power if he only trains half as much? Possible, but not likely.

Which part? The UFC part or the street part?
For UFC, your opponent will be similar weight as you and 1 on 1; these are the ideal situations for a grappler.
On the street, however, this is unlikely to happen. The moment your opponent is bigger than you or you're outnumbered, BJJ is almost useless.
So best stick to a single striking style and become proficient for the street unless you seriously intend on taking part in UFC sport.

Both common sense and experience:
Pro BJJ guys are rare, and most guys who have learned a style to a professional level shy away from street fights because they can get banned from sporting events for doing it. So, seriously, you think you need to learn how to counter Bas Rutten? Right...
As for the fight stats; that's how it happens. If you've been in over 10 fights yourself, you should be able to prove it with your own stats.
Are you going to offer an opinion? I see you're all about challenging others, but've nothing to say for yourself.
