Austin's MMA thread

:fire I love this smilie.

Well I'll start off by saying Howdy cuz I'm from Texas we do that. I just started my MMA training. I'm not training to do cage fighting its more a street fight style. I'm learning BJJ, Muay Thia, Jeet Kune Do, Indonesian Silat and Kali philipino stick fighting. I've done Tae Kwon Do before and this is so different. Everything is different the blocks to even the way you punch. I enjoy this so much better its nice to learn to properly defend myself and the style flows much better. TKD was to rigid and concerned with only scoring points or looking good.

You might ask whats the difference in cage vs street. We train against weapons like knifes, guns and sticks. Cage has lots of rules when compared to street.

I'm soon to be 27 in April I'm 6'1 currently 195lbs 17% body fat. I'll try to get some before/after pics of me. I'm in the before stage right now.

If you have any comments, questions or above average bitching then hit me up.
