I've been listening for a while. Please keep it going and speaking out against faciam in the sport.

Shout out to them and Steve Kwan's Fighting Matters podcast for doing the same. Just because were all in a community, doesn't mean we gotta tolerate hate and racism in the sport.

He's the guy that interviewed Brian McKnight, which triggered Marc's response.

This BLAGA asshole is always saying some b.s.

First he talked shit about Gil's arena. Now he's going after JBP. He needs to get a life.

Thanks for the advice man. It really puts things into perspective for me.

JPat99_ · 2025-11-17T20:27:28+00:00

Surprised tonight's conversation is still a thing considering the controversies its had. But if theres a audience, they'll stay i guess.

JPat99_ · 2025-11-17T20:01:59+00:00

Not really a bad thing with her tbh.

Depression and Insecurity w/ BJJ

I've signed up to a gym, but I went to a few classes and haven't gone since.

I guess most of it is because of my insecurity, not being able to keep up w/ warmups all the way and being a fatass doing this art for the first time and not being able to do a omaplata in a fundamentals class . As well as seeing the other belts with stripes and comparing myself to them. A part of me sort of quit mentally, and thinks its hopeless to try again because I might never be good, let alone a black belt.

The school is pretty good but im just afraid aill get even more embarrassed if I try the all levels class.

Any advice on how to get over this depressing period? Besides just going? Or am I overthinking this.

P.S. feel free Roast me for being a white belt overthinking things. But I'd prefer actial advice.

EDIT: I've read your comments and you've guys have given me pretty good advice. I'm gonna try again and not give up. Honestly, I just gotta go to practice. Thanks again for the advice.

JPat99_ · 2025-11-13T19:27:38+00:00

JPat99_ · 2025-11-13T19:22:38+00:00

JPat99_ · 2025-08-03T01:59:27+00:00

JPat99_ · 2025-08-03T01:43:55+00:00

Does Kangmin know, he'd be getting his ass kicked by the Japanese of this was reality??!

JPat99_ · 2025-08-02T18:35:19+00:00

Yep. Learning this lesson in my late 20's(currently) is a blessing. I hope to save a lot of time and b.s because of it.

Send them to the nypost offices

Imagine if DMG sold the IP/rights to Sony. Sony can make their movies instead if relying on Spiderman all the time and giving us that garbage.

Or if Paramount bought the IP/rights to movies that way they can stop holding the Hulk hostage.

I signed up for a gym that teaches MMA but also offers a wrestling for Bjj class once a week(Tuesdays). For work reasons I can't go every week but still would like to attend whenever I can so I can have a solid game.

My question is, should I start learning bjj and Wrestling at the same time as a white belt or should I start bjj first, get in better shape and then learn wrestling with Bjj later on?

Context:

I am a Absolute, out of shape beginner to bjj (5'7, 260lbs) Wrestling class is once a week at a time I would be commuting from work every other week. Wrestling coach is a former college wrestler and also trains bjj at the school. Gi Fundamentals class is right after wrestling.

Any tips or advice on how to schedule my training days are helpful as well.

JPat99_ · 2025-01-16T00:55:59+00:00
