Every cloud seems to have a silver lining. Because of the lively debate going on about KCD we had visits from 3 gentlemen on Tuesday night class who were from MMA backgrounds. Wow do they grow them big. The senior member was about 6'2" 225 pounds and all muscle. The other was 6'5" and approx 290 pounds of muscle and the other was approx. 6'1 and approx. 250 pounds and muscular with a slight bit of cushioning. We had a discussion about various methods of fighting and worked out some scenarios. Much knowledge was exchanged and all were happy. On Thursday night class a gentleman came to visit from a MMA background. He had quite a few questions. He also was of large stature. About 6'1" 230 pounds with a body builders physique. He seemed to have 20 inch arms. He attacked at varying speeds with high and low attacks combining striking and shooting methods. It was very educational for myself and some of the other class members who were able to observe. He conducted himself well and I and Major Al were able to teach and be taught very effective methods of fighting on the ground as well as standing. He promised to return with some of his friends for future workouts.
I have to thank all of the folks who were involved with the posts.
It has brought much attention to our school and has allowed for great exchanges.
For all who have genuine questions and some desire for discourse that is based on logic and reason I will try to cover as much as possible in as cordial a manner as possible both on this forum and in person.
Thank you all in advance for your cooperation. JP
Does anyone know who these MMA people were? I'd love to hear what they have to say.
Regards,
Matt
