Honeslty,

how many fights ahve you been in?

 

[Lord_Suston]

Not at all, but we're talking about 2 different things. I know that in a boxing ring those small guys would knock me out, but as I've said boxing is not fighting in the true sense of the word. It is one dimensional, if that's all they can do, they can be great in the boxing ring, but not necessarily in a street fight where anything goes.

Here is a fundamental problem, you think you can wrestle, but your skill is no greater than an average person, stated by you; no wreslting experience. So you are on par with proboxers there, but hoestly you might have slight advantage since you weightlift. But remeber a boxer can punch you in your famous signature move "the headlock". Explain how you would get in, would you come straigth in and guard your face and block you own vision? would you throw some haymakes and just take their first few punches?? Either option seems suicidal at best.

About a year nad a half ago I wreslted one of my friends, play D-1 football about 300lbs or so, I ended up choking him out with ease and I haven't wreslted in years. What makes you think none of these guys have never wrestled??

Fact is, no matter what you say, you will never convince me that I might not be able to succeed. I know myself and what I'm capable of. Neither will I convince you, so I'm done with this discussion. Hurl all the insults you want to.

Your insecuties override the fact that WE are trying to open your eyes to the reality that surruonds you.

In a way you can say that we are guardians.

What is insecure about thinking that you can take on a man much smaller and physcially weaker than you are, and defeat him in a anything goes match? I already said they would kill me in a boxing ring. I really believe this or I wouldn't say it. I could be wrong as I've already said, but I read on the net that boxers have lost in street fights.

 

[Lord_Suston]

no use in argueing, just try taking on a pro next time your out, when you get better from the coma, write about it

This thread is waaaay too serious. But I will say this; I've fought MMA against guys way smaller than me who were far more skilled (2nd degree BB), and could always maul them to the ground without taking too much significant punishment to do so. Sure, you eat a shot on the top of the head when you shoot, or take a nasty low kick in the leg, but it's not enought to stop you from scoring the single or double leg takedown, or getting in close enought to grab and clinch. 220lbs with ground skills is gonna mess up a 154lb boxer with no ground skills more often than not. But, that being said, I've beaten a few PARTICULAR smaller opponents with more striking skill than myself and gotten them to tap to chokes and neck cranks. I wouldn't ever make a blanket statement and say that I could do the same to ANY smaller guy that is a pure striker. I can say that I like my chances, but that's about it.

If you were secure in yourself you would challenge yourself and take on opponents that are much larger and have more fighting experience than you.

That's not secure, that is stupid.

That my friend is the difference between you and I.

I walk the path of warriors

You walk the road that is paved
