Well.. might as well, right?

Like the post says… might as well, right?

I mean, who knew that I would ever start fresh as a noob again?

Oh well… it is what it is. I mean, hell if I were a Duck then there’s no reason in calling me a fucking Grizzly Bear, now is there?

Cheers.

PS: Quack quack!

I don’t really get what you are trying to say there so I will just skip it and start with welcome to Bullshido.

I see in your profile you train at SMTA? I was thinking about doing MT and went and watched a class once but Saekson was out, so Chidi Njokuani ran the class - how would you describe Saekson’s kind of instruction?

Sorry for such a late, late reply.

Saekson’s instruction is excellent! He’s very close with all of his students.
The only bad thing IMO are his prices… just a little bit pricey for MY taste… but anything of good quality should sell at a higher price, right?

Thanks for the warm welcome!

Welcome.

Hey man… do you cross train or anything? i used to train at Star Jiu Jitsu… always saw Jason House in there training MMA. You should stick around and join the throwdown group for Big-D and/or Austin.

Yes, sir!
I actually trained in JuJitsu when I was a kid growing up.
You know that Aries guy?
Hah, well I know him personally. He seriously copy and pasted my life to his own.

I was the one who trained in Japan when I was a kid, had a father that was UDT… you know the story.

So anyways…
I currently hold a bb in JuJitsu (NOT BJJ).
I’ve actually cross-trained in BJJ and currently am holding a purple belt (thanks to Carlos Machado at Machado Jiu Jitsu), trained under Renzo and Royce Gracie in Gracie and BJJ in Miami, FL for awhile.
The US Army actually influenced me into getting good ground work in BJJ, due to the fact that sure, many fights get taken to the ground and it’s ALWAYS great to know how to gain the advantage on the ground.
I’d hate to look like a fish out of water when facing an opponent that could smear me on the ground.
My only disliking about BJJ is the fact that in real street scenarios… the ground freakin hurts sometimes no matter how strong or tough you are.
Grinding on gravel, ect…

That’s why i’ve cross-trained in Judo and San Shou! Judo and San Shou are both great arts for me, due to the fact that I can SLAM my opponents on that gravel. For me, San Shou/Sanda has proven to be VERY effective against those boys training at the local McDojo teaching fake versions of MT. REAL MT includes constantly conditioning your legs for kicking and destroying your opponents mobility (which is why we condition our legs by our instructor striking them with kendo sticks). My biggest problem with strictly MT is this: It’s a battle of who’s tougher than who, rather than who has better technique.

I’ve cross-trained in American Kickboxing, but I didn’t like it all that much…at all. Too much bullshit, but I guess it could have been because my instructor was a lame. This guy was out of Tucson, AZ.

I’ve cross-trained in Sambo and really liked it.

I’ve also cross-trained in Kenpo and Krav Maga. I love Kenpo, and am still quite unsure of Krav… I see alot of, “Now hold still while I do this” kind of nonsense.

What i’m ultimately looking for, is SOMETHING where you see them both equally putting forth the effort.
I’m not going to just sit there and let some guy kick my ass, and I don’t expect ANY of my opponents to do so either whether they WILL or NOT.

So I suppose the reason i’ve cross-trained is because I’m still looking for that perfect fit for me.

I do find that training only for the ring can be harmful for street encounters, but if you’re fighting someone with less caliber than you’re bound to win anyways.

Maybe someone could help.

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone!

So, I thought you were leaving?

I never left in the first place!! Dude, you ought to get a life. I’m not doing anything for you to insult me.

Actually, your old account insulted quite a few people.

What in the hell are you talking about?
Honestly this really is the only account that “I” have. I mean, this has been my alias since online gaming. What more do you want from me?

You have quite an insulting demeanor. I haven’t even done anything wrong.

lol I’m guessing you’re not even going to apologize; are you?

Forget it, man. I’m watchin the game.

lol go Cowboys!! WOOHOO!!! :smiley:

No. You break the rules, insult people, and I need to apologize?

Wow.

Forget it, man. I’m watchin the game.

lol go Cowboys!! WOOHOO!!! :smiley:

Tell AriesKai I said hello.

How in the hell did I insult someone?

If I did, then i DO apologize, because it’s the RIGHT THING TO DO; but otherwise, you’re obviously trying to get under my skin. Ain’t gonna work buddy.

AriesKai? I know him. That alias was actually stolen from me, from my steam account.
It’s my steam account name, created by my zodiac and my middle name.

I mean, come on guy. Jesus.

I think you’re the one that owes an apology here.

lol you’re really pathetic. what are you like, 15?

seriously, get rid of that vagina of yours, grow some nuts and quit talking shit.
haha i can’t believe that kid actually got under your skin THAT BAD.

so he’s spoofing your IP too?.. the mods can see your IP dude. may wanna have the puter checked out.

lol! I just asked him if he was looking at my IP or something.
yeah, the kid was on my computer.
dude, so what? i’m not him, we’re two different people.

it’s not like i’m sitting here talking shit to the two of you or anything. not my style. besides… nothing beats machine-gun-fu :smiley:

Anyways. The kid is officially banned from my house…motel room hehe. I’ve known him for maybe a couple of weeks.

Haha I can’t believe how, as you get angrier, your posting styles merge.

Oh i’m not angry or anything… maybe alittle frustrated that you keep accusing me of being some 17 year old punk that gets on my computer and lies about his entire life… but not angry.

Maybe we act somewhat the same as we get angry/aggro but i mean come on… doesn’t really mean anything…

I’ll tell you this…
If it were me and I got ‘that’ angry… I wouldn’t have come back at all.
There are plenty of forums. I could just make my own blog and invite all my friends, make it something big… make my own website eventually…
just think about it.
I like this forum, because I feel that I can learn something here.

Tellin ya guy, i’m not the kid that was on before. Take it, or don’t.
As for my DD214… tell me what to do to send it, and i’ll do it.

What i’d like to do is forget any of it ever happened. It’s actually very, very embarrassing.
Think we can do that, people?

I find it hard to believe that a 17 year old kid could spout off all the shit that AriesKai spouted off, like he was an authority, and then subsequently disappear after being questioned about it… THen, you show up afterwards on the same forum website, from the same computer, with a whole new game to play.

That’s almost like a Forum cliche.:bssign:

Thank you:

I do enjoy the eveolution of the story.

I mean, it doesn’t really matter to me what you believe. Obviously I can’t change your mind. What i’m telling you is truth, yet, you continue to accuse ME of being a liar.

Come on guys, get a grip.

I feel that i’m jus wasting my time in this. Confirm that little notion there and i’ll be off for the night.

laters.
