So true get in there first and keep it coming...There are two rules in engagement..Avoid getting hit and hit him at will so that he cannot escape. To do this you always must be alert in Condition red. You cannot be leaning on walls with your arms crossed..things go down in seconds...you cant be slumped on a chair when sitting..always be erect but relaxed. trust me I am so well trained when I go to the movies..I sit by the exit just in case of fire..in a crowded theatre..something happens..Im out of there Right now some can call my mom a ***** I'll just smile...coz I know..Im tired with 2 hrs sleep..I didnt train for months for a fight..Im hungry as hell..I cant fight this is real life..martial art
Why are Kimbo and Brock better to watch than anyone else? Kimbo is a bum who will get his **** pounded in as soon as he fights a real mma fighter. And no TANK is not a real mma fighter. Brock is a wrestler.. which is exactly what you seem to hate. If you can't respect a fighter like BJ Penn.. then you just dont like fighters. [yt]wliSOI37w2E[/yt]
Some matches can be but then so can most BOXING matches. It is ignorance when your only rebuttal against MMA is that it "sucks" and is boring to watch without adding anything specific or sensible to the debate.
Heres to me the best book written about real life Martial Art and what it really means..some of the things here youve probably read from me..because I typed the first draft of this while my Sensei was dictating it. It is a great book and will give you an understanding about fighting and what Martial arts really is http://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbnInquiry.asp?z=y&isbn=1420800051&itm=37 this thing is safe but "this book can save your life"...we were going to title it like that Karasuma Kantaro is a pen name
Its sad really. Makes it look like boxing fans have an inferiority complex around MMA when in truth it is the few that ruin it for the majority.
You sound exactly like my dad, saftey first. I feel now adays most of the younger guys and a little younger are mostly pussies, all they know how do is try and punk somebody, but when that doesnt work there lost. I just thank god after all the dumb fights I had, the worst a got was a concusion and some bad bruises that took weeks to heal. I still firmly believe fighting can answer to some problems you have with someone, but afterwards there could be even more problems you might have to deal with later.
Sadly, its true. I have waaay too many friends that let people walk all over them because they are afraid to fight. Nice guys, in fact great guys, but I swear they wouldn't fight if their life depended on it. I can't even get them to throw a fake punch
Dude try to get the book I just gave teh Link to Cardstars Heres a free preview.. http://www.authorhouse.com/BookStore/ItemDetail~bookid~26580.aspx This guy was my Sensei for over 10 years...very underground guy..based in the upper west side, NYC..not sure if he still trains but man pure genius after reading this..you wont be fighting and if you do...you'll be well armed up there(pointing to temple)
Your right, I have a few friends like that myself. I dont think fightings the answer all the time, but every man or boy had a time in there life were they had a chance where had to fight or backout and look like a ***** infront of your friends and the girls that you like, unless you were Mike Tyson as a 13 yearold kid or something. I think every guy should get in a fight at least once, it's a feeling thats indescribable to a person thats never been in one.
mma doesn't suck. you obviously suck if you only like brock lesnar, ha. both mma/ufc and boxing are great. i like boxing more, but there are plenty of things to enjoy about ufc. please don't use this form to pout because your roided up wwe 'champ' got his ass tore up.
Man shut the **** up, it was a foul, those are the rules the athletic commision decided on, nothing any MMA organization can do about it in the states. Lesnar was going to get submitted regardless of what happened. You can't even go 30 seconds in a boxing match without the ref stopping the action and seperating the two fighters.
Of course you don't see guys tapping in street fights, but have you never seen somebody choked the **** out? I have, thats for sure. Plus what you've personally seen is pretty ****ing irrelevant, you aren't watching a pro like Mir, you're watching a bunch of drunk nobodies. Tank would lose just as quick anywhere, he didn't even hit Mir.
