SdK mom and I went to my brothers first MMA fight in Omaha last week. He won by TKO 40 seconds into the second round. It won fight of the night.
Anywho, I'm thinking about training for some MMA fights. If I feel I'm ready, I'll enter the octagon. But I am more looking forward to the training.
Does anyone on here have experience with MMA training or know of any trainers in the area? My brother fights out of Hastings, so I can't train there.
-
pretty much everyone on this site does MMA.
-
MMA is gross.
-
Why can't you train at the same place as your brother? You hate each other too much?

I agree for the most part. I showered twice when I got home.

Oh, I have no idea where Hastings is. I thought that was the name of the gym.

If you're only in it for the workout, have you looked into Crossfit? I could share some tips.

if youre only in it for the ringworm, i know a 4 year old that can hook you up.

I don't follow ufc or particularly care for the fans. But I did enjoy watching my brother train, step into the 'gon, and dominate. I'm also probably the tallest guy with little man syndrome.

Being tall is a disadvantage in the combat arts.

I'm 5'11. I'm not tall. Just not short. Wingspan is 6'3. I think that will help.

If we're going to do this, I need to know that you are all in. One does not simply waltz into the life of an MMA fighter.

Not sure if serious. But yes.

Combative Sports Center, SDK. A guy I wrestled with in college trains for human cockfighting there. That semi-pro that went by Caveman trained out of there too. It's supposed to be pretty good. I don't know personally, though. The place I trained out of in Topeka closed, or else I'd tell you to go there.

I can't watch MMA/UFC. (Is there a difference?)
Too likely to see someone die.

You should definitely do this. Not just train, but actually square off with some dude in the 'gon.

One is the "sport", the other is the promoter.
You're also more likely to see someone die boxing than you are competing in MMA.

Just opened it and read the first paragraph. Because fights end in a certain manner they are assuming?
8 of 10 fights I saw last week ended in tap outs. The other two ended because the ref stopped the fight to prevent injury.
-
I also don't want to see broken limbs or kicks to the face or stuff like that.

you're gonna need a No Fear cutoff shirt before we go any further.

It is pretty brutal to watch at times I agree. The last fight ended 30 seconds in when a kick snapped a guys ankle.

Hahahaha hahaha yes!

There is no time to build the suspense that makes sports great, imo. Also, too violent

That other guy looks like they just found some random frat bro and made him fight in his boxer briefs.

it's actually pretty hipster'ish area and venue. I think it was probably just the fact that MMA was there when you were that made it seem gross. chvrches just played there.

Must be new data. When I was still training there was some study they were touting that showed support for boxing being more harmful to people's brains.
I also didn't know crap about research methods at the time, so I don't know.

I would think grabbing a quick bronze while they detail your car is a great idea. I am going to invent that

in high school, I met the guy that sings that jingle (and many other radio jingles in the NE Kansas area). I made him sing the "soar with the eagles" jingle, it didn't sound just like on the radio, but it was pretty close.

I didn't understand the swordplay. Toys? Don't real swords cut through dudes? And it appears they're not heavy at all and don't hurt that much when you hit someone with them. I'd just throw the sword and shield at the other guy's head to distract him and free up my hands and then move in for the choke.
I also don't really get fencing, but I assume it's basically tag with sticks, so I can kind of follow what they're trying to do.
-
they are blunt edged swords, i guess you just smack the other person and rack up #mayweather points?

maybe this will get more play here:
it is really important that you guys watch this

I was waiting with bated breath...until I realized they were fighting with bated blades.
-

Yes, that makes sense if it's understood that the fights are always going to go to the scorecards, which would be based on who'd have won if those swords did damage. I don't see this sport succeeding if there's no KOs.

They should make it where the sword would cause a shock to the body part that got hit...the strength of the shock would be based on how hard it was hit...and if it got hit hard enough that it would have been cut off with a real sword then the shock is so strong it immobilizes the appendage...but then at the end no permanent damage.
