A low-res photo of someone from 8yrs ago is hardly something you can pass judgement on. I think that some people are confusing the flaring of a jacket with an obese body shape.
I think if Terence applies the same energy to his MA as he has to his professional career and chess playing (2nd ranked in St. Louis (I Google-stalked him!)) then I think the results should be pretty obvious. This is not a guy who is satisfied with mediocrity, either in himself or others.

He has turned down every offer to come and share his knowledge with others in person. If he considered accepting he would try to put an mma pro between him and his detractors.Originally Posted by CFT

A few things to consider:
(1) Terence, being a lawyer, enjoys debate. That's one of the reasons why he's here and why he goes into EVERY thread and argues points.
(2) If you don't like him being here and nitpicking at your responses, just ignore him. People that like to debate and hear themselves talk only continue to be a nuisance when they're getting fed the responses they anticipated.
(3) "Proof". Most of what Terence says can easily be validated in terms of fighting in general. There are things however even seasoned fighters will have varying viewpoints on, but the universal truths are always there.
(4) "Immaturity". For those looking for validation, it doesn't really matter if he can prove it physically if it's already known to be true. He's an older guy, a professional in his field, and still continues to train as best he can.
Guys...he's a lawyer...did you expect anything less behavior-wise?

"I don't know if anyone is known with the art of "sitting on your couch" here, but in my eyes it is also to be a martial art.
It is the art of avoiding dangerous situations. It helps you to avoid a dangerous situation by not actually being there. So lets say there is a dangerous situation going on somewhere other than your couch. You are safely seated on your couch so you have in a nutshell "difused" the situation."

During the Gulf War, Saddam had a plan to beat us. He was going to kidnap all the lawyers in America and release 100 a day until we surrendered.
A lawyer died and was standing in front of St. Peter at the Pearly Gates. St. Peter said, "you can't come in here... you have to go to the other place". But the lawyer was really good and pleaded his case to the point where St. Peter said, "OK... here's what I'll do. You will spend the same amount of time in hell as you did on earth, and then you can spend the rest of eternity up here." The lawyer figured this wasn't too bad of a deal, so he said "OK". St. Peter said, "Great... I'll see you in 350 years.". The lawyer said, "But, how is that possible... I'm only 65 years old!". St Peter said, "We go by billing hours".
The trouble with lawyer jokes is lawyers don't think they're funny, and nobody else thinks they're jokes.

No harm if it doesn't impair his position......
And that is exactly why he will not post it.............................
Because having seen his own mediocrity displayed it would necessitate an automatic auto-destruct response in order to eliminate said mediocrity.. (Nomad syndrome lol)
