Thanks for the reply Brad! Last questions, how did you prepare for a fight mentally? Did you have any rituals or habits you'd do to calm your nerves? I'm making my MMA ammy debut soon and have been training for years and I'm nervous as hell even though it's a couple of months away. Thanks for...
Hey Brad,
Quick question regarding your success in MMA. What is the biggest advice you have for someone who is pursing MMA as a career? Thanks in advance!!
I've been there man... I really wish I could help you out bud, just know that you're not alone. Learn to love yourself man, and find a hobby that you love that you can focus on. You got anyone you can talk to at the gym?
I've always loved MMA. Even when I did it at a young age. I'm sure it's the sport but that's an interesting perspective. However, even if I wanted to go back to school, my last semester ruined my scholarships and I'd have to pay for it myself without my parent's help. I definitely value...
Like I said, I have money right now, that can last for a couple of months since my good friend doesn't mind me staying with em. But, I will eventually get a job that won't impede on my training. I'm not too worried about that right now
And to address how some of you might think my money situation would put me in a bad place mentally. I'll give yall some background story.
I was a student at a big university with the support of an affluent family. I went to a academically rigorous high school and they made me quit my one love...
I'm realistic guys. I'm not completely delusional. I just knew, ever since I started at 13, that I loved this sport. Thank you everyone for the advice though. I'm going to give it my all within the next couple of years, and see how it goes. If it doesn't end well, then shit. I tried... But I'm a...
My coaches see a lot of potential in me, even when I started training a while ago at a different gym, they pushed me to compete but my parents didnt allow it. My head coach today believes that I'll destroy my weight class in amateur and he was a pro mma fighter with years of experience. Yes, I...
And I can be one of those few man. As for right now, I have friends that let me stay over with them. As for injuries, I dont care. It's like asking if I'd rather live in a cage, safe for 80 years or be free but die at 40... Of course, I'm planning to get a job soon but is pursuing a fighting...
Easiest trick in my book is to give em a couple of right kicks to the body, when I fakethe third and they try and catch it, superman to the wide open face or skip into a high head kick.
Also I love to use teeps, I tend to just teep the body a lot, then I'd fake a teep into a hop left hook...
What are your thoughts on a person who dropped everything to pursue fighting? Literally everything. Unsupportive frinds, unsupportive family, school and etc,. someone who's committing everything he has to the sport. I'm fighting my first fight in July but ive been training on and off since he...
