I've been watching the UFC challenge/reallity TV thing. Man, I love it. I've never liked a show so much. I'd really like to be in the UFC. I've been training with the Toughman Compition in mind for about 2 years. But I think I'm going to start training for UFC now. I'm going to take up yoga and see if I can't find out some Ju Jits Sue or something like it. I've done boxing for 6 years now, wrestalling for 3, and I have a Red belt in Ti-Kwan-Do. I think I should finish up my Ti-Kwan-Do and get the black too. Thoughts and opinions?

I like pride fighting. ![]() [right][snapback]255464[/snapback][/right] I'm not generalizing the sport... I'm just saying you know... most of those guys won't cut it. I know real fighting... got plenty of scars and injuries also... ;] As for muay thai, which is literally "Thai Fighting/Boxing"... it's a very straight foreward and rigid form with ONE objective: destroy your opponent with singular powerful blows. A bit to ordinary for me... but as one who observes the forms, the tactics, the flaws, muay thai is easily counter-able. It's just too bloody slow, and a fighter who's good with spacing will destroy a muay thai stylists... QUOTE Maybe career is too strong of a word. I'm in college to be a Psychologist, so I'm not making money at that. I have fought for money, but it's not a job. And I have raced for money, but it's not a job either. I'm sure there is a word for what they are, maybe hobbies. Career is too strong of a word for just about everyone in our age group (17-28)... I fancy myself a perceptive person and also studied psychology. Before you can really do anything... know yourself. There are wants, needs, cans, and cannots... Self evaluation is only but a few seconds before "why" and "why not." This post has been edited by Kwanza26: Mar 10, 2005 - 2:43 AM -------------------- "It's ok to be naked girl... I'm an artist!"
