March 17, 201412 yr After the UFC event on Saturday, I came across this article:http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1994748-johny-hendricks-vs-robbie-lawler-how-safe-sparring-may-change-contact-sportsI have always thought that keeping contact (to the head, especially) on the lighter side is much safer and more beneficial than going all-out. It's interesting to see that idea gaining some traction.

March 18, 201412 yr Nice article. It does make a lot of sense. I think people are getting smarter about their training, and when the contact levels go up, its important to be smart about training.Thanks for sharing this. https://www.haysgym.com http://www.sunyis.com/ https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com
