Severe Matburn

I agree wif TJS, from what u've said, Greco-Roman wrestling would be ideal. Amazin throws like judo only without the Gi. I would recommend Sambo, but we might have too much ground-work for you. Still we do both wrestling and judo takedowns so we have have strong takedowns but my gym tends to focus on the ground, however if you go to a gym that teached olympic style Sambo, you would have wat you want.

Definately do it, itz only half an hour and it'll be worth it.

It IS grappling, but if your referring to wat everyone means when they are talkin about grappling they are likely talking about groundfighter or at least takedowns, not juss clinching.

I think they would work. I kinda prefer wrestling takedowns somewhat but I'd love to pull off a good hip throw. Itz juss that I'm more proficient at takedowns

Actually Sambo has tons of "live practice" i do sambo btw. and karate woman, that Sambo instructor that ur talkin about is mah coach. And we are juss the bjj juss do do more takedowns sometimes, other times we juss werk alot on the ground and we don't really use the gi like bjj does.

damn sho-ju...i'd like step up and be like uh...yeah, i think i'll pull guard. But yeah, I have ear protection and I don't use it. It is so horrible and itz alot harder to get outa chokes and such with it on. I haven't gotten cauliflower ear yet and i'll prolly only start usin protection when i first get them

I've used it before, but itz only worked on weak, generally untrained guys. Other than that I've tried it on others but it doesn't tap them out, juss pretty much annoy them. I've had it done on me, even sum1 bigger than me and it was definately nothin i would ever tap to. But using it would prolly keep ur opponent from passing your guard for a lil bit. But it takes too much energy and you cannot sustain a strong grip for long.

How do you think this would turn out? Like say, Arnis double stick vs. Kobudo staff or Arnis knife vs. Kobudo sais etc

I used to bounce in sparring...then i learned how to punch, LMAO, sorry couldn't help it

lol, vash ur great. Don't y'all juss love the kick ur opponent in the face approach to life? Be careful with it, coz if they get past ur legz ur toast buddy. But be my guest and the ur legz fly.

I think if the WC guy waz good, he'd prolly wipe the floor wif the tkd guy. But i dunno bout the karateka, i've seen a karate vs. WC fight b4 and the karate guy demolished the WC guy but i suppose that waz juss one fight

Just do what you can man, no training is better than nothing.

Mah last fight waz about a month ago wif anoder grappler and he did sum sort of scissor leg takedown, only he did it to mah knee and it damaged the tendon, so i waz on crutches fer like 2 weekz, i'm still goin to physiotherapy

I really rather not strike with a boxer, but a Thai boxer would be even worse in my opinion.

I wanna be an MMA fighter too. I'm already part of an MMA gym and I can both strike and grapple but I haven't had any MMA bouts. I'm also 5'8", 150lbs but i've tapped out much bigger, stronger guys on a fairly regular basis. Fer other small people who wanna fight I would juss advise that you get a really tight guard game.
