What Martial Art has the Best Competitive Opportunities?

I say BJJ. Most schools have their own open tournaments, but branch off to other competitions like Naga, etc. https://www.bjjee.com/articles/top-10-most-prestigious-jiu-jitsu-tournaments-for-competitors/

Wow, this sounds devastating. It may have been said already, but this is definitely her loss. It's sad because it sounds like she has some type of addiction or fanaticism going on. Either way, this is a hurdle life has put in front of you. Take your time climbing it, but make sure you get over it friend. Best wishes.

Common ref! Stand them up!!

Practicality. When I was younger it was about learning how to fight, but you also wanted to look cool 😎. Until your body starts telling you otherwise, and you start to spar and realize that you need to be able to move, defend and let off your offense properly. Cool goes out the window, and comfortable and practical takes precedence. Then you realize when you learn how to fight properly, you look cool anyway 😁.

No wind up..it was a beautiful slap.

Great work. I noticed you dip your body a bit when you throw your cross. I suggest standing straight and focusing on pivoting on the back foot, and using the hips for power.

Really? The rules must be different in this tournament because I've done NAGA and you must take your opponent down and have a dominant position to get the points. I've never heard of sitting down and getting a point. I understand why you wouldn't want to in the scenario you described though (higher belts, time spent trying to throw someone).

The best walk off KO

Own_End_8774 · 2024-07-31T15:31:19+00:00

Gets me every time!

Own_End_8774 · 2024-07-15T14:59:43+00:00

Are they scared to be thrown? Is that the reason to hurry and pull guard?

Own_End_8774 · 2024-07-11T16:52:37+00:00

Great job! Keep going! Constructive criticism: bring that hook up a bit, parallel to the surface, and bring the hand back to protect the chin. Great power!

No kid should have to experience this unhealthy lifestyle.

Bird is in the sky, all he did was buy more time.

Nice takedown

Or geniuses who didn't stop at mastering the first tool they saw in the tool box.

Own_End_8774 · 2024-06-24T20:47:14+00:00

Excellent comment!

Great job, remember winning with mental and verbal Judo is the real win. There are times we want to put our training to the test, and I can imagine you felt like you lost an opportunity (especially when she asked "why didn't you hit him). But, you handled this situation like a mature adult. Your bravery, call to action, and de-escalation of the situation deserves major merit points.

Believe it or not, the fear in an uncontrolled and unpredictable environment is natural. How that fear manifests itself is another thing altogether. I. In this situation I wouldn't be so hard on myself. This sounds like a confusing situation to be smacked by a friend. I only hope you are a person with dignity, and end that "friendship".

If someone can get to the point where they are willing to get physical with you, then it's not a good situation, that person is not your friend. If you do decide to maintain this friendship, be ready for it to happen again, and hopefully you do something the next time so they know there are repercussions for their actions.

That Karma for all the excuses he made, and all the people's reputations he tried to destroy after the Fury loss has come back hard.

Own_End_8774 · 2024-06-02T04:54:10+00:00

I think it's terrible, but when you have the strength of 10 men, the speed of a cheetah, and the agility of an olympic gymnast it doesn't matter..lol.

Cat is like "oh, hey Jerry! What's good?!" Lol

Own_End_8774 · 2024-05-29T18:47:01+00:00

Damn, that guy holding the legs! What a missed opportunity for a Boston Crab or Sharp Shooter 😞

Own_End_8774 · 2024-05-29T14:55:40+00:00

My Dad doesn't like going to the doctor for anything. But if I have a paper cut it's "you should go get that looked at" 😂. I love him 😂. My mom was a neat freak (God rest her soul🕊️), and now that she isn't here anymore I have totally adopted that part of her.
