Don't feel bad at all about being so tense for your first match. I'm sure your coaches expected it to happen. I know you already noticed but I wanted to say that I think part of why your hand drops when you punch seems to be due to bad technique when you punch. Whenever you are training or hitting a bag always try to keep it in the back of your head that when you throw one hand the other one is to keep the guy from hitting you. Also, I don't think you need more muscle to generate more power in your punches, just practice technique. If you happen to get into a similar situation again where you are down and can't up kick, perhaps just ready yourself to attack from guard. I don't know how big Koreans are on wrestling but I would recommend finding a wrestling club or perhaps someone at your mma gym to roll with a bit. It will give you one of the best work outs you can possibly get and you'll learn a lot more about grappling and even foot work.

Good luck with your next match and sorry my post is so jumbled. Late night posts FTL.

We train wrestling at a minimum twice a week, and they have some very good wrestlers training there at times (for a while one of the best lighter weight wrestlers in korea was training there regularly, he was a god damn monster, so fun to watch him move and so strong. .. he lost his first amateur mma match because he got a dq for slamming someone I think... but from what I heard it was a really nitty enforcement of that rule since the guy was barely off the ground).

I want more muscle because my goal is to be welterweight sized (with a day before weigh in), and I want more explosion in my legs and more strength when clinching.


You can't bring them off the ground? What exactly is the rule? Seems odd that you couldn't slam someone at all when they award points for slams in amateur Greco Roman matches. I mean I remember seeing and being part of my fair share of some really hard slams when I was doing Greco Roman.

No, you cant slam someone to get out of holds. You can throw someone obviously, but if someone has a triangle or armbar you cant slam your way out. From what I was told (I wasnt there), he powered out of an armbar and it ended up being ruled a slam somehow.

No need to point him out, we can clearly guess lol.


Haha, seems everyone recognized him as being a badass. The best guy in that pic is probably the guy in the red hoodie tho, he's really good (like a level above everyone else aside from the coaches).

Nice! Idk if you could both hit a similar weight, but I'd pay money to see you vs. elky.

I've honestly got no clue how big he is...

You know he had a match vs Liquid`Raszi right? (Raszi won by headkick KO)

Next event is June 21st I believe. I'm not sure I can make it, I'm moving to a new apartment in either June or July, so we'll see which month that ends up happening in and how busy I'll actually be. Otherwise I think August will be next.

Yeah, I saw it. Raszi had great leg kicks. Elky fought well considering, but it seemed like Raszi was sandbagging before the fight which made it even more awesome because I thought Elky was going to destroy him with better cardio.
