    How much do you like your toe?
    thats pretty hard core man
    but wouldn't it be better if he kept his toe in the long run? I mean it's not like his career is going to end in a year... or is it?

    So we went from: train harder, to cancer, to Taekkyon, and IIRC comics came up (as always). What's next?

    I did a kickfest at Mean in teh bean V, with Strikestanian, it was embarrassing...but I had an injured thumb, so it was that, or nothing as fun. I post for shame
    Spoiler:


    The worst bit was, Marvin Perry, who is, by any measure a great kickboxer, looking on in the background. He probably had to scrub the suckage of the mat, after I left.

    if you are good at takedowns, you should go for that instead

    Whether it actually translates to being a well rounded martial art is questionable, but the comps look like a lot of fun.
    pretty close,
    A win is awarded when you land a kick to the head OR throw your opponent down
    In TKB kicks to the midsection is NOT allawed (I don't know why, one of the stupidest rules in TKB), maybe because Kyullyun puts alot of emphasis on low kicks.

    Is it a well rounded martial art? Definatly NOT. The absence of handstrikes and groundwork is painful. I had my ass kicked on my first MMA sparring sessions. But is it valid? I think so. After a few lessons, I was able to fight most of the people in the gym quite decently. I had my kicks and standing wrestling from Taekkyon, so I just had to fill in my missing parts (I still suck at boxing and groundwork though).

    Yup, looked like a perfectly respectable past-time to me.

    Sorry, but when the wiki page for an MA states clearly that hurting your opponent is against the rules, it needs to go fuck itself. You either accept that what you do is a performance piece, with no transferrable skills, or again, you can go fuck yourself.

    Oh come on, it's still a sport where people try to throw each other and kick each other in the goddamn head, without those dumb dipped foam headgear with face cages. We're not talking about XMA here.

    My brain is softwired into the internet, and the process is relativity painless except when I come to Bullshido.

    And I do that on purpose.

    It's like cybervirtualsadomasochism.

    I stopped ready this thread when it got seriously fucking retarded.(whi ch happened way early).
    I'm one of those guys who posts evey other day about copping yet another shitty injury,& about being a burn't out old bastard.
    I do my best not to come across like a whiny lttle ninja 'cause I love what I do & my x-rays are like merit badges,every one was earn't the hard way & I'm damn proud of them.

    Omega,your student is a goddamn inspiration.
    I'm about to go in for my third knee op since march ( this time a full rebuild ) & I'm gonna save your o.p to remind me just how fucking good life is when I'm going through the next six months of rehab,then another 3 months as the class grappling dummy before I get back to a level where I can start enjoying my art.

    Regardless of all the Bullshit that this thread spewed out,I've gotta say THANX.
    Call me conceited,but It could have been written for me alone.

    Oh yeah,I'm on some pretty cool meds,so all the touchy feely shite,,,HA

    I for one find it massively fucking ironic that he even had the balls to post in a thread created by Omega about the serious lack of hard training.

    Most sports or even ballet dancing would have some transferrable skills.
