Tough choices, though I think Team Quest has the best talent. Henderson is probably the best LW in the world, and is in the top 10 MW in the world. Lindland is at least top three MW, if not the #1. Burkman has the skills to possibly make a run at the WW title in the years to come. I personally can't stand Haynes, but the guy is a fighter.

I like the Brazilian Top Team the best as a personal favorite. If I were to choose a training camp to attend and couldn't get into BTT, I would go for Miletich secondly. (Although I'm partial to warmer weather and Iowa can get cold at times.) You forgot about Team Punishment. I think the cardio would be good, but I don't know if I could put up with all the trash talk. Oops my bad. I see where you have added Tito.

They're all good for different things. I dont think there is a clear #1, but MFS, BTT, Chute Boxe were up there for a while until Wanderlei lost, and Franklin, Hughes and Sylvia lost.
Right now Team Quest is on a tear and BTT is sucking and same with Chute. Greg Jackson's team despite Diego losing is doing good too.

Team Quest is the best. Also you left off Sokoudjou the newest star.
Paraestra Tokyo is an up anc coming team with Aoki as the headliner.
Cesar Gracie has a large team.

I would go with either Team Quest or MFS, they are both great

I believe that the arts you from is the best because thats the art you are acostum to. If you master your art you master your self so any other would seem easy to you. I am Shotokan and i believe my art is the best, because thats all i know.
