Re: Mixed Martial Arts anyone
Awesome, that’s great news, brother. Many of us have busy lives so no need to apologize. I’m not familiar with OneFC though – how similar to UFC is that? It’s one of my biggest hopes that martial arts becomes competitive and common throughout Pakistan. I’m glad that the British-Pakistani boxer Amir Khan’s been able to positively influence many young Pakistanis to step up and gain an interest in boxing, but we need more. MMA is extremely competitive but most of all, martial arts is a great discipline for the mind.
Just out of curiosity, what does it take to become “certified” in what you described as “close protection”? Does it mean you have a license of some type? Just curious. How long have you trained in boxing, Muay Thai, and BJJ? What do you think of Taekwondo so far? In my opinion, Taekwondo only becomes effective once you begin competing in tournaments.
I received a brown belt in Taekwondo when I was younger and then took some courses as a recap in college, spent 2 1/2 - 3 years boxing, and now I study Ninjutsu/Ninpo which focuses primarily on Ninpo Taijutsu and Jiu Jutsu, though there’s also an emphasis placed on using and disarming weapons like swords, knives, kusarigama, 6 ft. bo staff, 3 ft jo staff, shuriken, hand/foot spikes, naginata, and a couple more which I can’t seem to remember. Boxing, Taekwondo and Ninpo/Ninjutsu don’t seem to go well together though so I can’t say I know “MMA”.
