no. im not gonna do that. because i got nothing to prove. i never claimed to be a badass master. i do kung fu for health. you on the other hand claim to be badass and cant even make it out of amateur after 20 fukin years.

if you dont like kfc you are a traitor to america.

This is a forum for ideas. Following one teacher to learn one was is one way. Learning multiple ideas from multiple people and applying what works best for you in a given situation is another way… one way produces champions.

And bawang is correct. You set up people who assume you are going to spar at a certain level then BLAST THEM to try and get the upper hand. that means you lack some real skills.
i repeat…you effin bore me. you’re not some god. fool.[/QUOTE]
Those “set up fights” were challenges made to me… in fact, in the video you’ll see the same guy twice, on two different occasions. Do you think he fell for the same trick that you propose, twice?
He wanted a second shot before I moved to Puerto Rico.
Those fights aside.
I have sanctioned amateur MMA fights in NJ 0-2
I have 2 sanctioned San Da. One in NY. One in NJ – 02
I have 3 kickboxing matches sanctioned by PR 1-1-1
I have 3 semi-pro MMA events sanctioned by PR 2-1-0
My BJJ competitive record is 5 golds out of the last six tournaments. 1 Silver.
I am an average competitive hobbyist. I am no way near the high level of competition in an 1 style. I’m 37 years old now, getting married in 3 months. Nursing a shoulder injury that still needs fixing.
I have done my fighting. I continue to train and compete… what you study, how you study, what you do or do not do with it is your business. I sleep well at night. I’m comfortable stepping onto a mat, into a ring or cage anywhere in the world. I’ve done it enough that I’m familiar and as relatively comfortable as you could be fighting strangers. There’s not many anywhere, especially here, that can say that.
And, as always, I’m still willing to stop talking and compare. In the end, that’s what it’s about. What can you do to me. What can I do to you.
a record of 1-1-1. you are not even fit to be a tomato can.
Fighting is a hobby, something to do in the summer when the waves go flat.
What’s your record? Are you developing a fighting career?
Ps
1-1-1
That’s better than the US record vs Korea, Vietnam and Iraq
What is “semi-pro”?
Either your ammy or pro. What does the “semi” give you?

That is when you get paid crap for a fight and DON’T get ranked or the fight is recorded in any professional organization.

So you get paid to basically do an exhibition fight?

The venue was pro: pro gloves, no shin guards. Elbows were legal. Punches and elbows legal on the ground. Most of the guys were former kick boxers moving into MMA. They made supplemental income from fighting.
I make my living by writing. I took the fight because my coach asked, “You want to fight in whatever month.?”
“I say yes.”
Make like $500.

In a nutshell, yeah, or in the case of the early days of MMA and VT, you get paid to fight in a bar or strip club or indian reserve to put on a show for bikers and the like.
Been there and done that.
<---- thinks its interesting that every time a discussion develops on TCMA’s value in relation to evidence it can produce a relatively competitive modern fighter… the discussion turns into personal attacks against me.
That’s usually a sign of having weak evidence. Can’t attack the argument – Kung Fu HASN’T produced a relatively modern competitor (with a thousand year head start) – so you attach the person making the argument.
Just give me a couple names of some TCMA UFC or Pride fighters = argument over.

Sh1t, bro, that still happens.
There was a promotion not too far from me that put a cage up in the parking lot of a motel.
We just stay away from those fights.

Yeah, for some of us that was the only way to do it ( test ourselves).
Still I am glad I did because it was a good testing venue ( not great) and it exposed me to the “colourful” side of the fight game.
So much better now for guys in MMA and MT, better in all regards.

Actually, we’re 2-0 with Iraq. We did everything we could do for them, and then some. If they can’t make do with all we’ve given them, they were doomed from the start.
