What was it like the first time you ever did mma?

Question

Like the training and fighting. Any regrets or anything? Did/do you love the sport?

Answer 1

I like the individual training, but personally I didn't like the physical contact. Felt weird.  

So, I quit. Not because I was scared.  Just the physical stuff creeps me out.  *1-0 record is enough.

But, the training, the individual training I keep up.

Boxing on the other hand was better,because of the physical distance.

I quit that because I was slower then most of my opponents and I didn't like getting hit.  And because the rules are the way they are in boxing, it was best that I quit.

Answer 2

I LOVED THE SPORT

Answer 3

I was residing in Hawai'i at the time. I went to a stable that shall remain unnamed for the purposes of this post, but they either liked to weed out newbs or they really didn't like military personnel. They really gave it to us. Instructed us to shrimp from one end of the gym to the other for what seemed to be an hour. I had mat burns on both my shoulders blades [I was doing them incorrectly] and I was wearing a RASH GUARD! I don't remember the rest of the "class", but I am pretty sure it consisted of other similar drills. The other guy who accompanied me never went again; I continued going. Years later, many stables visited and left ....

I still do it. I'm glad they made me shrimp all that time there. Now I can shrimp for a extended period of time with no problems!
