STR33T GUY Posted December 13, 2004 Posted December 13, 2004 My interest in the martial arts is for self-defense. A little bit about me; I’m male, 43, married and blue collar. My MA background is amateur boxing and kick boxing, high school wrestling and jujitsu (green belt). I’ve been in three street fights in the last ten years, a 3 on 1 and two 1 on1. I’m not training at the moment, as I have moved and I am still looking for a good club. Cheers A minute of experience on the street is worth a year of training in the dojo.If you can’t sprawl and brawl, you can’t street fight.
