IMHO, that's not so much a "combat" grip as it is a "competition" grip. I prefer to hold the pistol exactly the same whether I'm shooting it one-handed or with a support hand, and whether I'm shooting a semi-auto or a revolver. There's no way that thumbs-forward grip works with one hand, so (again, IMHO) it's useless as a "combat" grip because in combat you may well be shooting with one hand. So I use what some people call a "revolver" grip, even when shooting semi-auto's instead of revolvers.
Use what works for you. The important thing is to be able to hit what you're aiming at. Life's too short to be arguing about where your thumbs go when shooting.
