WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN A MARTIAL ARTS GYM:
•Physically conditioned, fit participants
•Trainer with certified professional record and a training history with at least one athlete who competes successfully
•Sparring, "aliveness" in training
•At least one participant competes at amateur or professional level
•Physical conditioning part of training

WHAT TO BE WARY OF:
•Fat, physically subpar students and instructor
•Graduation fees (e.g. "pay $200 and advance to next belt extra quick!")
•No proven athletes training there
•No sparring, moves shown are choreographed (e.g. "the attacker does this, then I do this, then you do this...")
•Cult-like atmosphere
•No physical conditioning

You know, in MMA circles where People want to learn and develop this is considered a Dick move.

You probably did that to somebody way weaker than you, then they figured out that what you need... is a lesson. You being such a bully and shit. They probably went on a forum, hired a real mixed martial artist and now you're gonna feel what it is like to be a victim.

I find Your entire story unusual. We get People who want to learn, but not many Challengers. We get judokacks who have decided to man up and Train a Complete system. I think these People hired a Professional fighter for Your ass man.

Somebody who would give you a little taste of Your own medicine, somebody who thinks bullies like you suck. And now he is gonna pick you apart. Ever considered that? Think about that a little, doesn't feel so good now does it? Start feeling a little insecure and a lump in Your throat. You said it yourself, the guy was shredded. You didn't even do anything, but he chose you anyways. For some reason he singled you out. The snare is tightening around Your neck Anon, can you feel it?

After being such a cunt, you're gonna finally face the same suffering you've put on others. He is just gonna kick the shit out of you. Not so fun then is it, not so fun when you're the victim.

Even if you beat me it won't change the fact that Goju Karate, heart of a Whole, is shiiieet compared to MMA.

The UFC is offering you big Money to disprove that. Just walk right in. But you won't because you know in Your heart that MMA is superior to Goju as a lone martial art. You're out of Your League.

My advice is to simply stop being a cuck and man up, Train MMA if martial art is Your passion, and forget the Whole kata interpretive Dance industry.

But I also know that you probably wont, because you cucked yourself so hard and strong to get that cuckbelt around Your Waist. Now you're such an obediant submissive little cuck that you will stay in Place and do as you're told.

I saw the beginners, I watched the masterclasses. Rest assured, the judocucks don't learn boxing. The cuck-fu guys don't do bjj. The taekwuckdo guys don't do judo.

They do as they are told to do, all to earn a black piece of cloth and Call themselves masters, wich they are not. If they meet the paper to their rock, or the rock to their scissors, these People are fucked. They've gotten cucked out of very important aspects of fighting.

They do, and I'll readily criticize boxing for all its flaws and lacking areas, but rules and limitations make for specialized development and boxing is where footwork and punching technique are most developed. If you want to polish up your footwork or learn the best punching, you train with a boxing coach and then maybe modify what you have for application outside of boxing.
>>
>>1699879
Tell that to Stefan Struve m8, he's about the same size but he completely fails to utilize his physical advantages in the way Schilt, a polished full contact karateka and kickboxer, did. Semmy's currently the greatest heavyweight kickboxer of all time and Struve is just the tall awkward guy that hasn't gone anywhere in the UFC.

No seriously though, his physical peformance might improve but Struve does not seem to know how to fight in ways to maximize his natural advantages. It's kind of infuriation how the guy with I think the longest reach in the UFC can't manage to play keepaway with 5ft10 Mark Hunt and finds himself at slugout range.

You know? Something I never get is why boxing is so powerful and efficient for what's intended for (beating the living crap out of your opponent), but TWD is, for the most part, shit? Both are sports with rules, sparring and specialization in one particular attack (punching vs kicking), but in a fight the boxer is more likely to win than the other guy.

>>1701746
Because Taekwondo's scoring criteria are fucked and basically encourage a game of tag with overextending jumping and/or spinning kicks, many of them little more than a footslap since very light contact will often score just as well as a kick with actual power you'd use in a fight, with hands well down rather than protecting your important bits and in an environment where you can't get trapped and forced to defend yourself for a screwup in positioning or a misstimed attack.

They focus on kicks but don't even learn to use their longest weapon against the shortest possible target in a stable and safe manner (kicking the leg, which is tremendously useful and important) and they don't work to learn to defend themselves in shorter ranges in competition nor do they have to deal with a good deal of the shit someone can do to you when you're standing on one leg and off balance, to the point where their understanding of clinch fighting is even worse than boxing's. Just the general idea of focusing on using your leg to attack can be awful since it becomes that much easier to get dumped on your head or ass.

To Taekwondo's credit, that form of sparring does help build a solid degree of distancing and timing (since an opponent's poking foot can lose you the match), they learn a solid variety of deceptively fast kicks rather than the full power leg swing favored in Muay Thai, they work full contact within their setup and they don't force a pause and reset on scoring, something that's done in World Karate Federation kumite and just encourages developing shitty defensive habits.

No, any serious MMA striker adds a bit of boxing to their training.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KGX5wYp_adA

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g32r2x6FW5s

Pretty much every MMA fighter takes up a modified boxing stance (kickboxing stance desu) has basic boxing footwork and ringmanship. Some of the better strikers use knowledge on creating punching angles with trunk and head movement. There are tons of variations on punches in boxing that work for different strategies or to take advantage of length like so.

I'm not sure. As I said, most MA have some form of punching, so while not as developed and specific as boxing, training kicking and grappling mades up for the lack on specialization.

I won't deny boxing can and will wreck anyone with a good punch, I just think that's not the main contrinbution. However, I admit the entirety of footworking from boxing is much more important than I thought.

Of course training in other areas means you have a better toolbox but if you want to learn quality punching you train boxing, because again when all you're allowed to do is punch then you develop superior punching technique. Dudes like the Diaz brothers or Junior dos Santos have made perfectly respectable careers for themselves in MMA by being punching specialists, or you have Zack Mwekassa over in Glory Kickboxing making a good name for himself despite starting out as a pure boxer.
>>
>>1701746
First, obviously, boxing is full contact
Second, boxing has limitations on concepts but gives freedom outside of them, this gives liberty to invent and advance. Sport oriented arts instead select a number of allowed things and everything else is a penalty, effectively penalizing the developing of the art

Boxing is not a martial art. If I can run around the ring, hug you and tap you a couple of times I win. In fact I would be Floyd Mayweather.

Let's call Boxing a screwdriver. They have a screwdriver in their toolbox, they have a nice and fancy, shiny and polished screwdriver. But that doesn't make up their whole toolbox. They gave a whole damn toolbox full of other good shit like hammers, saws, wrenches, and even some less common tools in there. They have a full job to do in MMA, and no matter how good you are with a screwdriver, it's just better to use the hammer when you've got nails to drive, and the saw when you've got shot to cut. Sure, you can drive nails with a screw driver, you can take wood apart with a screwdriver, but it wasn't made for that, and the right tools gets the job done better.

BJJ or Judo?
No Gracie bullshit allowed

>Watch as people vote for BJJ

Really, what's with this meme? I don't mean BJJ is a bad art, or not useful or something. What I don't get is why /asp/ have such raging boner for BJJ.

The japanese jujutsu (JJJ?) includes a lot of striking techniques, along with throws, locks and even some training with weapons. And I'm not talking about exotic shit that you wouldn't carry around without the police questioning you (nunchucks), but stuff like tanto (a kitchen knife) or jo or short staff (a broom handle will do fine); meanwhile bjj is only about throws and locks and ground fighting.

What's up with that?

Comparatively speaking, jujitsu seems much more complete than bjj. Is because specialization? I still don't get it. Boxing is also a very specialized and efficient martial art, yet is no where as popular as bjj in these boards. And then we have capoeira or tkd (I know, tkd sucks, but I have seen quite often capoeira in mma matches) and the later is a fucking joke among regular /asp/ies, while the later is rarely if ever mentioned.

So, really, what's the deal with bjj?

It's fun as fuck to throw people against the planet, but it has higher risk of injury.

It's lower fun to roll around on the ground, trying to get a submission, but higher risk of not getting injured.
>>
>>1707262
I'm not sure what you're trying to argue here other than talking about being well rounded when the point has been that if you want to polish up your punches, footwork etc then boxing will benefit you because it's entirely focused on that.
>>
>>1707510
Because JJJ was supplanted ages ago by Judo because of its focus on developing a pruned and demonstrably effective skillset by way of competitive sparring, something BJJ typically also places a premium upon. JJJ, meanwhile, sticks primarily to tradition which makes it a terribly interesting study and perhaps more complete but also serves to stifle its curriculum and prevent development. It's also hard to find credible, legitimate schools.

BJJ is popular because grappling has, historically, been king and ever since the early days of modern mixed martial arts we've come to realize this once more so grappling training is at a premium. It's practical and effective, has an active competitive scene where you can polish your skills/have fun and it also carries much lesser risk of injury than, say, Judo.

JJJ doesn't spar with aliveness against fully resisting partners. That is the only way to learn to apply techniques effectively in combat. That's why the only MA's asp recommends have full contact sparring.

The martial arts places near me are:

>Kyokushin Karate
>Tai Chi (also functions as a yoga & pilates place)

Which one should I go to?

>>1708053
Start with Sanshou/Sanda. Tai Chi is a long journey, so if you're not going to train it that much, you better start now. supplement with Kyokushin Karate or Western Boxing, or Aikido or Greco-Roman Wrestling. You can come back to the ones you didn't chose, later on.
Then, you can do Gracie Brazillian Jiu Jitsu if you want to, but BJJ in general is overrated.

Free Krav Maga is good Krav Maga, just make sure to be skeptical about everything, every single thing, not just Krav Maga, literally everything.
Be skeptical about everything.

If you have the resources, feel more than free to train two of them within the same week, for a period of time.
Resources includes physical fitness. You don't want to overwork your body, that's fucking stupid.

Make sure you be a good athlete.

Warm up your muscles and joints, then do light dynamic stretching, and then dynamic stretching once you're warmed up, get into the meat of your workout, cool down, and then do static stretching. Don't push yourself too far.
Make sure to stay hydrated.
Make sure to get a good meal, but not too big of a meal, a few hours before your workour, so you have energy, and therefore can train longer.

Always get a good night of sleep.

Drugs are bad.

Academy teaches self defense and barra teaches sport. A blue belt in academy will do okay in a street fight because they are used to striking, but suck in a bjj tournament because they won't even know the rules, and vice versa.

Based MMA guy here. I wanna weigh in on this issue! You have two great options here. For stand up you've got Sanshou/Sanda, and for ground you've got Gracie BJJ. That is enough for MMA. Here is what it is gonna give you:

>Sanda/Sanchou

Of they are legit, most of Your time should be spent on Learning punching, kicking, takedowns, throws and takedown defense. This mean that you get a good flow between Your stand-up and grappling, because you learn to see where the moves fit in between.

>Gracie BJJ
It's great, don't listen to the naysayers. Just tell Your instructor that you wanna learn BJJ and carry the flag og BJJ in the MMA one day. Because they will invest in you as time goes on, but you have to tell why you're there. A friend of mine did this, he is in a Group at his BJJ Club, they're basically just a cool gang of friends, trying to learn striking for MMA. So if you don't cut yourself short With muh "I just wanna learn BJJ" bullshit, you're probably gonne get everything from them. If not there are probably others there who love the UFC and wanna be in Your gang of cool friends trying to learn striking for MMA.

So I say, do BJJ and if you have the time you can try Sanshou/Sanda, but BJJ is usually the gold mine. The BJJ People are passionate about MMA, that fixes a lot of problems.

Thing is...

You have got to know what you mean when you say MMA. People who talk about MMA usually means a bunch of shit-tier martial arts, barely scratching the surface, put in a pot to be enough to survive. Like the boring stew of western boxing, thai kicks, wrestling takedowns and bjj submissions that every plain mma fighter uses.

Say what you want about Michael Venom Page, but that guy is actually experimenting, he is doing some solid stretching of what People would believe to be possible. You have New exciting clinch techniques coming out of Thailand right now, spreading over the internet, and thai fighters entering the UFC using these.

I think that there will always be a huge gray goo of fighters who, in hopes of playing it safe, stick With the old bread. But this MMA thing is probably the best thing that has happened to martial arts globaly since Bruce Lee.

Bruce Lee made it popular, MMA made it legit. That is why it is so important to always tell posters from inferior bullshido systems that are Limited Beyond belief how incredibly cucked they are.

Somebody has to state the obvious to the judokacks, they can't strike for shit. Neither can wrestlers and most BJJ. Boxing sucks, they lost to judo way back in the day. Taekwondo is one of the suckiest martial arts, we teach it to kids so that nobody can get hurt. This is the harsh truth and you need to chug it. If you practise these sports you've not amounted to anything, you're just a weeb With an invisible katana.
>>
>>1717525
>he is doing some solid stretching of what People would believe to be possible.
That's just because people are stupid.

People can fucking believe whatever the fuck they want, and fucking stupid bullshit.
But in the end, there are nothing but the mother fucking facts, and that shit is fucking complicated compared to a lot of belief bullshit.
>>
>>1717525
>But this MMA thing is probably the best thing that has happened to martial arts globaly
Agreed

>Say what you want about Michael Venom Page, but that guy is actually experimenting, he is doing some solid stretching of what People would believe to be possible.
Experimenting is extremely important and I see as much potential in MVP as anyone else, but he hasn't fought anybody that mattered and who'd serve as proper proof that what he's doing really works. And even when someone does do step outside the boundaries of what's typically done we can still get something like the Machida Era, where he was untouchable until one fight later he wasn't, and it wasn't any sort of great new development that did him in, it was not running in face-first and kicking his legs.

>the boring stew of western boxing, thai kicks, wrestling takedowns and bjj submissions that every plain mma fighter uses.
Kind of the point of MMA, you're allowed to take (most) anything and bring it to the cage and see who's the better fighter and what works and what doesn't. All those things have worked and continue to work and therefore remain used as a strong base from which to work.
>>
>>1708053
Don't let the etiquettes on the front confuse you, anon. Just because they put the drawing of a tiger and the words muay thai in the front, it doesn't mean they are a good place to train muay thai, or anything else for that matter.

Read the op links and beware the mcdojos.

I would suggest you to take the free class they should give you. If you find is a legit place and you enjoy it for whatever reason, go ahead and pay for the month. Otherwise, don't bother.
>>

>>1717685
>All those things have worked and continue to work and therefore remain used as a strong base from which to work.

Yeah, but it has gotten to a halt because of it. Because everyone has the same idea, get good basics, rely on good basics. Thus, it becomes stale. That is why I'm looking so foreward to the Thailand People getting into MMA, because they are really good clinchers and could perhaps add another layer to the mix. I belive that MMA is four Things: Striking, clinching, wrestling and rolling. And they follow each other in that order. If you can't grapple you strike, if you can grapple and strike you clinch, but at some point the risk of losing Balance is so great that you have to go into Your stand-up grappling, the wrestling, then someone will get to the ground, then you get the rolling.

So the thai fighters will bring their clinch, and the weakness of the western clinch will be exposed. Then MMA guys get clinch and clinch defense. Wich isn't as polished as the BJJ or boxing in MMA. Also, the kick evasion in MMA isn't really all that, and I think MT guys could add some of that too. Because that is what they do.
>>
>>1720633
I Guess my biggest gripe about the current MMA situation is that the fighters are only as good as the current zeitgeist allows them to be, nobody wants to do the Research and Experiment to do something different. Wich was what we had when we pitted styles against each other.

I do both judo and bjj, and I dgaf about what people think about the rules because I'm there to win, and I don't let stupid shit stand in the way of that. Tell me how I win, and that is what I will train for.

However, I prefer judo competition better, because there is no bullshit scoring, either you win or you lose and who gives a fuck if your knee was on someone's belly for 3 seconds. Also, no ties in judo.

Tai Chi and Aikido are useless as fuck.

Kyokushin will make you conditioned as fuck. You can take a lot of punishment as well inflict damage, but be sure they practice face punching. Too many Kyokushin schools gear for tournaments.

Sanda is the only legit CA I can respect besides Shuai Jiao. It lacks neck-wrestling and clinching that Muay Thai offers, but it has good punches and kicks with throws and takedowns.

You're rarely gonna find a McDojo for BJJ. Just see if they actually roll during training and check up their lineage to verify with a reputable BJJ organization.

Greco-Roman is always a must.

Boxing. This will be hands-down the cheapest and best option.

There actually are strikes in judo, since it's a form of japanese ju-justu. They are called Atemi.
Atama, the bjj gis brand actually can be translated as headbutt in japanese.
Judo is not inferior per se but the limitation to its curriculum are damaging, i.e. banned leg locks, leg grab strikes and so on...
MVP is good, but he still only has faced D-class fighters. He's worth the hype, but against some better fighters at his weight, the outcome would not be that favoralbe to him.

Once upon a time, there was a young monk.
This monk studied and practiced martial arts, and enjoyed it so.
The monk was hiking through a forest, and eventually found a mountain.
Upon reaching the top of the mountain, he found a bracelet.
He put it on.
The bracelet made it so he could only do 80% as well as he could without the bracelet on, but the bracelet would bring him pleasure, despite the lasting permanent effects it has on his mind.
The monk continued to study and practice with the bracelet on, and noticed how it made him weak, even though he still performed a lot higher than his fellow monks.
He would even do well despite how the bracelet caused him to sit still doing nothing productive while it left him in pleasure.
Many rises and falls of the moon had past, and the monk had contemplated and meditated on the subject of the bracelet and his life.
The monk came to the conclusion that he valued mastery and knowledge of martial arts more highly than he did pleasure.
The monk realized that he would forever be further away from his goals with martial arts because of the bracelet.
Though he struggled, the monk was able to cast the bracelet into a volcano so that it may corrupt him no longer.
The monk then shed a bittersweet tear, the monk knew that he could continue strongly on the martial arts journey he had decided for his life, though he also knew that he would forever be less of a man than he would've been if he were to never have discovered the bracelet.
The monk stored his story in the archives so that all monks after him may be enlightened, and not make similar mistakes to those that he had made.

The more intelligent you are, the less time it takes to learn and get good at something, and the less dedication it takes to learn and get good at something.
The more dedicated you are, the less time it takes to learn and get good at something, and the less intelligence it takes to get good at something.
The more time you spend, the less intelligence it takes to learn and get good at something, and the less dedication it takes to learn and get good at something.

But there's also another thing that factors into getting good.
Knowledge. Knowledge of how to train. Some ways of training and learning, for some people, are more efficient than others.
>>
>>1723060
The monk then fought in many battles. He became a champion.
The people would cry, "CHAMPION! CHAMPION!" everywhere he went.
As he defeated his opponents he had a harder time beating them.
"More training! More spirit pills!" He cried. He knew that now that he has his full strength he should be unbeatable.
His next fight was with a very capable martial artist. He won, but was injured badly. The people still cried; "CHAMPION! CHAMPION!"
He had fame, money, sex, everything. And yet he knew he was close to losing. Everyone knew his weaknesses. His injuries have piled up.
The Monk in desperation began to use a forbidden pill. For great strength the monk sacrificed some of his life.
They still chanted "CHAMPION!"
The monk's health began to fade.
"CHAMPION!"
The monk could no longer enjoy his meals.
"CHAMPION!"
He could no longer please women or himself.
"CHAMPION!"
The monk is left crippled.
The monk appeared far older than he was when he retired.
The young monks gathered around him. They praised his fights. Sought to be just like the monk.
One young monk asked "How does it feel to be the great champion and have everything?"
The monk, looking back, remembering the lengths he went to just for victory, and seeing his health decay and his relationship erode, realized that the only victory is living well.
He shed a tear, just realizing his folly, and died.

Nah sensible people saw it as a thinly veiled gimme. The sad thing is that Cyborg was actually a step up in competition, and mad respect to the man for taking a skull fracture like it ain't no thang, but he's been past it, has retired twice and as a brawler type is exactly the kind of fighter that'd run face-first into MVP's counters even at his best. It was mostly wishful thinking because Page getting clobbered by Santos would've turned him into an absolute meme.
>>
>>1720633
>>1720636
I think it's the other way around, now that everyone more or less knows and has good fundamentals across the board when compared to the early days there's a greater arms race to see who can come up with something effective and unexpected to give them an advantage. The canon of what does and doesn't work changes constantly, and I feel you must not remember the early days of MMA very well because back then, soon as people figured out how to defend submissions, the meta was even more about being an overbearingly big wrestler who could groundfuck people than it is today.

Right now you have all sorts of things coming into play. The UFC welterweight division is probably the single most talented one and while a wrestler with big punches won the title, because some things will always be effective no matter what, you have a guy with a strong traditional karate/points fighting background as the main challenger and a guy who's championing almost pure jiujitsu right behind him. Conor McGregor talking about the benefits of Taekwondo, guys like the Diaz brothers and Junior dos Santos as effective MMA "boxers", Alistair Overeem has a murderous clinch and so did Anderson Silva at his best, Dominick Cruz and TJ Dillashaw's fascinating footwork and stance switching, etc etc honestly I think the sport has never been better overall.

>Only your feet should touch the ground.
This reflects in old muay thai were basically you should use only your lower limbs to strike to make points. This is only a part of the answer since mt is related to krabi krabong

On this subject, under traditional muay thai rules it's illegal for a fighter to place his hands on the mat. Apparently, one of the reasons why MT great Saenchai likes fighting outside of Thailand so much is his love of the cartwheel kick, which he can't freely use in his homeland.

Immediately flip over if you can and move lower, avoid their legs because they're going to try your neck. Reverse with your shoulders TWICE and go back to THEIR neck. Reverse under and lock.

To add- I'm not going to tell you the most lethal way that women can deliver on your body. This is just a simple idea to deal with opponents in the dojo. Not that it would matter against a practiced female opponent. Males in a dojo don't understand harm. It's beaten out of you.

> We all know sparring is the alpha omega of any martial art.
No it's not.
Judo techniques are the same as bjj techniques in gi, which are similar to no-gi ones .
Those judo technique overlap greatly with the wrestling techniques, either greco-roman or freestyle.
>It is a melting pot,
No it's not. It's agiven set of rules.
> they are doing all the styles at the same time.
No they're not, under the Nevada athletic comission and the New York one, neither soccer kicks nor stomps are not allowed. Since they make rules for MMA in the us of a, that's under this set of rules that you train. If you were a pro, you would know that, but you're just a wanker with too much testosteron and not enough brain to train. This is why you brag here, because you don't risk anything.
IRL you got rolled out by that wrestler that new a little boxing and grabbed your second low kick to over hand you...
You can say it to us, we know you tapped to a shoulder of justice. Don't be mad, it happens.

The rules of mma doesn't limit your style. There are lesser known no holds barred places you can fight if that is your thing. Muay Thai low kick is as soccer as it gets. If you miss the headbutt you can go to Russia. Stomping is totally legal here, we drilled it some days ago from the clinch to make room for knees. Do you even mma son?

What cuck gym are you at?

Hahahaha

Seriously ass bitch, find something better to do with your time other than writing walls of text. Maybe try training.

>Muay Thai low kick is as soccer as it gets.
You don't train, now, for sure.
Where I am mma is actually not regulated, so you make the rules as you set the fight up.
>The rules of mma doesn't limit your style.
Styles exist only in the mind of those who want to follow them. What exist are techniques, their structure between them, and the methodology to teach them. Everything else is optional.
So stop boasting about mma, you live in the states as you mentionned it a few thread earlier, so you fall under the nac rules, amateur or pro.
You know why I like low intellect/ highbragging/no training troll like you in /mag/
Thanks to you, newbies actually can discover schools or gyms that they would have ignored if they hadn't read about.

There is nothing stopping anyone from any art to enter a no holds barred match.

We drill our stomps and headbutting. We have people who have fought in Myanmar here, we learn the best headbutting. If you wanna do a proper soccer kick you need to get friends and do soccer. It isn't a huge technical hole in your game, like not being allowed to grab legs (judo) and kick (boxing). We have tremendous dexterity at mma. Mma people win the no holds barred fights all the time. Everything I have said is true.

Mma shits on boxing and judo. The combination is awful, just enough to get in the ring and lose badly. I shit on those sports, judokuck is the worst in the clinch, they have no idea of what they are doing. Allow elbows from the clinch and they are dead.

Reading your comment I can barely even see what you are disagreeing with. There are styles you moron, anyone can tell a taekwondo kick from a muay Thai kick. People don't follow a style, they are cucked into it.

Even young boys want to learn real fighting, but their mothers lure them into taekwondo to keep them from getting harmed. Cucked.
