I agree a lot with what danger said there. Wrestling is a MUST in MMA, BJJ is also a must have, if you trian those two well, your already a force to be wreckoned with, but Karate is also a good art. GSP's main discipline is karate and I don't think anyone will say he's not a very dominant striker. I personally feel that striking is harder to pick up than wrestling or BJJ. So I wouldn't back out of what ever striking you can get. I'm most partial to Muay Thai but thats also because thats what I stricly train and only Muay Thai. It really is in my oppinion the best there is for a stand up martial arts, but I wouldn't discredit Karate at all.
