Why did you join if you're gonna act like that?
they only want me cause i was an NCO or probably due to some legal stuff that happen when i was in due to my billet

In short, comic nerds are badass!My bottem line is that I respect anyone who trains hard regardless of what they train under.
Even though Universal Studios of self defense is a general laughing stock for tough guys, I appreciate the people that work their asses off in that organization, I've seen TKD specialists successfully land spinning back heels to people in legit fights.
Anybody who is on the same path I am for constant sself improvement and the neverending quest for perfection is okay in my book. thumbsup
Except for those "Tapout T at the mini golf" guys.

yeh, i get the competition thing. i actually turned them down till i was 21 years old. i started doing them to help my master and his school and make a good example for my students who kept asking me to enter events..actually my very 1st MA fight ever was with a Korean Kick Boxer, i wasnt aware my teacher and his friend from korea had set it up to test their student and training style. he volunteered me since i was best student/fighter of his. i was 16, i nearly got my spine snapped by a kick that i was never allowed to use in sparring or even events.
i took it to the kid though but that kid could kick like a mule closest kick i ever felt like that was when i was an adult sparring with a marine gym rat vet who always gave 110 % b/c he didnt believe in giving less.. ❌
i also fought an Olympic Hopeful b/c the parents wanted to see how ready their kid was. The kid was like grease lightning good for point scoring but i was still better. my mom would force me never to enter tournaments let alone push me intothe olympics.
i hate when i see tubs of lards or even fit hicks walking around with MMA shirts... or taking backyard MMA or a crappy gym from a muscle pound idiot who only knows a few key moves and fought a handful of times in a cage and feel they are instructors.. one of my friends goes to one of them, i try not to laugh when i watch him train and his instructor knows jack.. i even have gotten in to teach my friend and correct his moves while explaining the purpose and how to flow from one move to the next.
it's funny when the instructor is like 23 years old and he ask where i learned or taught and i tell them i am 30 even though i look 20 and was marine mcmap instructor, AAA varsity wrestler, 10 year tkd black belt instructor with minor training in jujitsu and korean kick boxing.

Eh, I get it.I was in traditional Kung Fu for a decade and a half. Very old style, very old sensibilities.
I don't care much for the money, but I'm a competitor and I hated practicing something endlessly without any reference for how practical my skill was. I do it because it's my own personal test physically, and spiritually.
I don't consider MMA necessarily a destruction of MA, but an evolution of it.
I think there's a time for martial arts, but only as a self defensive measure... when it comes to competition, that's another story, fighters have been fighting against one another from different schools since the inception of "traditional Martial Arts".Though I do agree with the sentiment that most fighters use butchered techniques because they never practice to perfect them stylistically speaking.
And I suppose it's humorously hypocritical that I discriminate against guys who wear Tapout shirts to the bowling alley and such.
Lol I remember what my friend Zach told me about his McMap training "killkill!" lol.
I've been reading this thread (all 17 pages). And it's amazing that IF is considered to be more skilled in MA.
Wolverine clearly beat IF in a test of MA skill (no claws or IF tech).
1. Wolverine landed the first blow.
2. Wolverine was only hit two times in the entire fight,
3. Wolverine pulled off 5 attacks and made a mockery of IF using an attack he saw him using before and blocked it.
Yeah.. Logan is more skilled and experienced. Logan'd win this 8/10. Wolverine brings too much to the table for IF to handle.

Alright, you convinced me with this.
Iron Fist 10/10.

I can't convince a fanboy. If you really believe Danny wins 10/10, you're definitely a fanboy.
10/10...? Oh please.
Wolverine would kill him in any real battle without holding back. IF has absolutely no defense against Wolverine' claws. He can't dip and dodge forever.
Danny really doesn't have what it takes to put Wolverine down in fight where he's at 100 % and HF isn't taxed.
