I can't say enough how much of an eye opener it is to roll with a good grappler. It should totally change your perception of fighting and what it involves.

Check out Mastering JuJitsu by Renzo Gracie for a look at fighting strategies and concepts, it's not full of techniques but describes aims and strategies in away that should open your mind. It's the philosphies of MMA abnd BJJ.

Nah, definitely man. What I have learned has worked immenesly well for me, fortunately. But I obviously appreciate the difference between a bit of crude self defense/save yer arse and someone who is a skilled grappler that will have you pwned before you know it lol.

Sounds good, I'll have a swatch out for it over the weekend man.

I always come back from BJJ training banged up. Not too bad last night though just a cut eye lid to add to my brusied jaw from Tuesday.

That's just part of the game though, really. That's something I've learned from my years in Muay Thai, ye need to take the knocks now and again, and to never apologise for doing the same

Never apologize? Oan about?

[Old Man]

"Sorry mate, didn't mean to fuck yer throat"
*kick to the face* "don't apologise to ME, fucker".
Omm
