2) This other one is also a major factor. I truly believe in my master/coach, if I go there and someone submits me of course I ask the question: how did you do that? And of course I'd be grateful to see and learn how. And what if the guy is a BJJ coach. Who has a bigger name right now?
So a year later I go out to fight some bigger fights and I get the same submission who gets the credit for it?
it sounds like you are wanting to be the first pure cma guy - or at least the first pure e chaun guy - to enter mma. Is that true? If so, why?
So, I'm choosing to fight here and there to get some testing. I can show up to a Throwdown and fight some guys who have training and test a bit but nothing is official and I doubt anyone will see anything other than "boxing" and "lucky shots."
footage of the events are taken and posted... this means that people will be able to download and "study" you, no?
i'm nobody...i'm nobody. i'm a tramp, a bum, a hobo... a boxcar and a jug of wine... but i'm a straight razor if you get to close to me.
