TOTA Fighters?

Any of you guys/gals train any sort of combat sport?

Do you do it out of passion for the art/sport? or just do it for fitness?

Used to do tae kwon do.

Now, just ass kick fu.

I'd like to get into MMA, but lacking a coach and sparring partner in KW area unfortunately.

Yep.

wicked, congrats..what tournament? what does he train?

i used to bounce in a bar in oshawa that sold 99 cent beers...you won't find any better pugilistic training than that

after a break of more than a decade from martial arts, I've decided to get back into it...right now more for fitness than anything else: kickboxing

My father used to teach karate, and stopped when I was about five, but taught me a lot throughout my teenage years. It taught me a great deal of focus, being able to almost always determine my opponent's next move, and look at myself from their perspective, forcing myself to move smarter and faster to elude their defense.

Man, I love fighting (not beating people, just the art). I just hated getting in trouble, looking like an idiot, and the risks of getting a broken nose or stabbed/shot calmed me down alot.

All that said, I haven't lost a fight in 15 years, and that time I was jumped by 4 guys I never met who told me I said their car was ugly. This was while I was calling my mom from a gas station next to a McDonalds at 10pm on a Friday night to tell her I would be an hour late. These guys pull up, and I'm like, "shit, I'd better get off the phone." All of this happened about 3-4 feet around a corner that would have been in perfect sight of my friends who were eating right by the window at Mickey D's.

It's like a ghost inside me. Anytime someone needs a beating (which is rare, because I avoid fighting at all costs), this rages inside me and gets my adrenaline flowing. Then I chill back, focus, and take care of business. It's crazy though, because I black out when I fight.

There was one last summer where a girl walked by me in a club and elbowed me in the stomach because I was apparently in her holy path. I told her "not to fuckin elbow me," and her boyfriend (close to as big as me, maybe 10 lbs heavier) got pretty pissed off. He said, "what the fuck did you say?" I said, "I was talking to your girl." He told me not to talk to his girl, and I told him that "she shouldn't fuckin elbow me."

I remember him pushing me, then my friends said I pushed him back into a door. He swung a couple times and missed, and I cracked him 6 or 7 times in the face, the last one hitting his head back against the door.

The bouncers saw all of it, laughed, and threw him out. They knew me and know I'm not all about that, and took me in the office to chill for a few, then let me back out to hang. I went down by the front door to see the owner, and guy was there, as he had been tossed. He's like, "what happened in there?? You gave me a fat lip" I said, "your girl elbowed me, and you pushed me and threw a couple punches, and paid for it." Then I bought him a shot.

I'm not proud of it, but it sure is satifying seeing yourself perform with such focus and precision.

I was on the national Shotokan Karate team, we had tournaments in Barbados, Japan and all across Canada. It was a HUGE part of my life

Nobody screws with wrestlers. Once I get you on the ground, there is not much to do on your part.

In a fight Dave could kick Batman's ass.

And then I ask him if he would like to try my Wu-Tang style

I got in two fights in my entire life.

Once in grade two.... my buddy started talking smack about my brand of track pants, and i snapped. I ended up actually taking off his track pants, and made him go bare ass in a half frozen puddle. The sheet of ice on the surface actually cut his butt cheeks.

In the following year, my brother was getting teased by the 'cool kids' for being fat. That day, i was pissed cause my mom forgot to pack me a fruit roll-up, so i took out my rage on those fucks. Drop kicks, bitch smacks, and all kinds of verbal diarrhea, those kids never fucked with my brother again.

.... and my mom swore to include fruit roll-ups in my lunch from that day forward....

The Wu is comin thru, the outcome is critical
Fuckin wit my style, is sort of like a Miracle
on 34th Street, in the Square of Herald
I gamed Ella, the bitch caught a Fitz like Gerald - ine Ferraro, who's full of sorrow
Cuz the hoe didn't win but the sun will still come out tomorrow
and shine shine shine like gold mine
Here comes the drunk monk, with a quart of Ballentine
Pass the bone, kid pass the bone
Let's get on this mission like Indiana Jones, the GZA
One who just represent the Wu-Tang click
With the game and soul, of an old school flick
Like the Mack and Dolemite, who both did bids
Claudine went to Cooley High and had mad kids
so stop, the life you save may be your motherfuckin own
I'll hang your ass with this microphone
Make way for the merge of traffic
Wu-Tang's comin thru with Full Metal Jackets
God squad that's mad hard to serve
Come frontin hard, then Bernhard Goetz what he deserves

Clan in da front, let your feet stomp
Niggaz on the left, brag shit to death
Now hoods on the right, wild for the night
Punks in the back, c'mon and attract

4 years in kick-boxing.

now "Fight Club" in friends basement once a week.

oh god flashbacks

Never really been properly trained but me and a few buddies do some MMA w/ Pride Rules at our houses once and a while.
Fun, painful and great exercise since we do a lot of ground techniques. Muscle pain the next day is awesome, though!

What are the rules?

Obviously you've never fought someone with BJJ.
Wrestlers also can't finish good. Not a very good submission.

the rules are that "there are no rules"

Obviously, you've never watched ultimate fighting. The winners are usually wrestlers or brazilian jiu jitsu specialists, not karate or taekwando.
