Martial monk is contentious for no reason whatsoever other than people WANTING it to be broken because they think monk is terrible.

This variant simply swaps one or more of a class's features for one or more class features of another class. A class feature gained works just as it did for its original class, including the level at which it is gained and any other effects, except as noted below.

Lose: -1 skill point per level (and -4 skill points at 1st level); no Knowledge skills as class skills.

Gain: Fighter bonus feat list to choose monk bonus feats (at 1st, 2nd, and 6th level); Intimidate is class skill.

Multiclass Options: This monk can multiclass between fighter and monk with no penalty.
It's obviously giving the monk the bonus feat feature of a fighter. But RAW could technically go either way even if the intent behind it is 100% unambiguous.
