[QUOTE=STB’A;2279551]in the first video he’s wearing a tactical style knife sheath. couple that with the military BDUs all used in an instructional video when gym clothes would suffice tell me he is trying WAY to hard to look like an outside the wire operator.
also, in the disarms video, the long haired blond guy is wearing a t shirt with the tony’s logo on the back along with military uniforms. he alternates between wearing the over shirt and just the t shirt. this screams LARPery that a real operator wouldn’t have in his school.
i question him ever being in the military, but don’t dismiss the possibility. however, i do completely disregard the idea that he ever was in special operations/forces. maybe cassius or blacksmith can chime in on him.[/QUOTE]
Its called a Demo! He’s the real deal. I practiced under Grand Master Tony Mayo about 15 years ago. Before you knock him, try a class and than come back to this thread. I love how people just like saying things without actually knowing anything about him.
[QUOTE=Mikenike;2469284]Let me say something on Grand Master Tony Mayo. He is probably the closest thing to the real deal as your gonna get. I practiced under him for quite some time in N.Y and I know how REAL he is. Why don’t you go and try one of his classes before you talk bad about someone? I practiced with GM Mayo in 1995 and to this day i still have the upmost respect for him. He’s a true Martial Artist!![/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=Mikenike;2469286]First, I was actually part of Grand Master Tony Mayo’s exam in N.Y about 15 years ago. He’s the REAL DEAL! Before you knock him, go try a class and I’m sure you will come back to this thread and delete your past post.[/QUOTE]

This thread hasn’t been touched in over a year. It is very poor form to necro an old thread and add absolutely nothing to it.
Why are you no longer training with him?
How long did you train with him?
How do you know he is “the real deal”?
Did you read ANY of the forum rules?
