@@skylineleathercompany on point!

Great question. I’ll do a video on this. 1. I don’t want to get beat up - just let them know that especially aa a beginner that it’s very safe and if you go to a good gym people are looking out for your safety. Also, compared with striking arts, you are less likely to get beat up, but learning how to relax in discomfort is a learned skill they will teach you. 2. Just buy a gun - owning a gun doesn’t teach you how to respond to critical situations and you are likely to freeze because you haven’t learned how. Also, with martial arts you can still buy a gun and be less likely to resort to it. Also doesn’t give you the social group or personal enrichment, and it’s more fun than lifting weights 3. I’ve never had a legitimate feeling of sexuality in BJJ. Not with female partners and not with men. You can ask them if you were to train with a woman, let’s say in closed guard, would you grab her boobs and dry hump her? Well why would it be different if I trained with a gay man. Also, maybe you need to address your insecurities. I am comfortable in my sexuality so it’s literally never been a concern

I think people who who carry should be a blue belt bjj level grappler at a minimum to keep someone from being able to wrestle your gun away. Plus you get cool deformed ears 😅

lol, truth

But yeah, you can’t give people enriched lives through martial arts if you don’t sign them up. As a business owner, head coach, and student I wear different hats. One of them does sales and marketing. One of them helps my students get the most out of their training. One of them continues my own journey. Regardless of which pov I discuss with them, I have 2 options with snarky people. I can create a further disconnect or I can bring them into the fold.

lol

The conversation is over at this point

I ordered a used billboard tarp. They repaint them and clean them up for use. It’s a lot thicker than a standard tarp.

@@josenix5334 do you mean duke rufous? He’s on the list.

@ Nono hahahaha, Mauricio ruffy the fighting nerd. He’s style is so smooth and amanzing

Oh I gotcha, lol. Yeah I’ll add him to the list

@@danila4322 it sounds like a shameless plug, and I guess it is, but it’s a pretty long answer and genuinely I break it all down in depth in my book. www.amazon.com/Nemean-Fight-System-2nd/dp/B0D22HKRQG

@ did just that 😁 with how helpful your videos are I believe it’s deserved 🙏🏻

@@cody.prodzzzz946 he’s already done :)

@@edwinverzosa7655 probably won’t get time to do PFAs and idk, but I’m starting to watch Carlos prates

@ Carlos prates did beat li jingliang and Neil magny. He can be a threat, if he can fight Gilbert burns, wonderboy, his stock will rise in the 170 lb division. Also don’t forget his stint in lfa. My guy you need to watch out for is in the 145 division. Movsar evloev. Just put a aljamain sterling through grappling hell last ufc and also Arnold Allen. I think we will see him as a contender.

@ I’ll check him out. I haven’t been following him but those are strong guys to beat

A lot of similarities. I think for a while dekkers trained at bas rutten’s gym

For sure. He was a huge influencer of most kickboxing and Muay Thai fighters who came up in the 90s

@@ZenDragonKZbinChannel I’ll check it out

@@MrX-wd8cm thank you!

Glad you enjoyed it!

Fair analysis, thx!

Thanks! This was a fun breakdown and I get a lot of use out of the probing step

@@DevilDogMartialArts- cool, by the way, do you see him being able to impose his game against Ian Garry? Or Garry's footwork and counter strikes might be enough to stop shavkat's pressure and clinch game?

Thanks! Be sure to check out the other videos for more good stuff

Thanks for saying so!

@@Nomad_Fight_Life great!

Thank you for saying so! Dude put on a hell of a fight last weekend

Thank you, glad you enjoyed it!

Good question. I would advise him to slow down and be more patient in his striking

True. The best trainers focus on developing systems and principles based training

Right now I’m getting ready to do a bunch of non mma strikers, particularly Ramon dekkers, buakaw, Andy hug, super foot, and rodtang

Good luck in your training and please share back how it goes and what you learn along the way

Thank you for saying so! I appreciate it truly. It helps motivate me to keep making content knowing it helps people out

@@kobyferdinand-okpala4995 yea but not for a bit. I want to spend some time on some Muay Thai and kickboxing fighters for a bit. So November is going to be Saenchai

Thank you so much for saying so! Be sure to check out my other system breakdowns if you liked this one

😊

Thank you so much!

He’s on the list. I’m getting ready to do seanchai this month and I want to do some other kickboxing and Muay Thai legends first in the coming months

I haven’t watched yet. 2pm cards don’t work for me and I have too much going on. I was annoyed this was an Abu Dhabi card because I wanted to get the ppv. So I’ll wait till it’s free on ESPN

If I could have any attribute, it'd be reach. What an advantage

Thanks! I appreciate it. I have the Hangman on the list but it'll be a minute before I get to him because right now I'm doing Saenchai, then guys like Buakaw, Andy Hugg, Superfoot, and some other big strikers before I come back to doing some UFC fighters.

I’ll put it on the list, thx!

@@DevilDogMartialArts- Appreciate it!👍

I agree. I think he let him go because he doesn’t want a bunch of divisions dominated by wrestlers because fans don’t by those ppvs as much and I think he was mad about the Kape situation. I think he’ll be back in a year or two though They all are. But I want to deviate off for a little bit and cover guys like saenchai, buakaw, Andy hug, and superfoot for a bit before I return to UFC guys

@@DevilDogMartialArts-you also forgot the rufus fighting system

@@edwinverzosa7655 I’m not a huge fan of duke roufous. I have nothing against him but there’s nothing there that makes me want to break him down

I’ve done some stuff on that before but sure thing

@@not_kiri20 thanks!

Good question. I’ll try to do a video on it

@@DevilDogMartialArts- thanks alot appreciate it

Thanks. Hopefully I’ll be able to drop videos from time to time

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it

@@edwinverzosa7655 I’m excited for jones v stipe. I’d like to see jones fight pereira but it sounds like either way it’s his last fight

@@DevilDogMartialArts- same thing goes for stipe also. Stipe may contemplate retirement after 309. Might as well promote aspinall as the heavyweight champion

@edwinverzosa7655 yeah neither of them are interested in continuing after this fight because there’s nothing really left for them to do. Pereira will probably take out aspinall just because he can
