>when putting wraps, you should avoid wasting it wrapping around your palm as you only want to protect your outer hand
Why? The purpose of putting on wraps is to tighten you hand as much as possible so you won't bust any of the 28 bones you have in your hand when you punch. Most of these small bones are located in your palm area. Yeah you should obviously protect the knuckles, wrist and thumb, but also your fucking palms.
🧵 Yet another W for PFL

>Gegard Mousasi is not happy with the PFL.
>“I think they bought Bellator but they don’t have the financial means to pay the fighters,” Mousasi said. “Whoever is not necessary, they will just not let them fight. Especially fighters that make a lot of money. Because Bellator fighters make more.
>At the end of 2023, PFL acquired Bellator MMA in a landmark deal, which PFL executives promised would lead to a new era of MMA. Unfortunately, that new era has not extended to Mousasi, who has gotten off to a rough start with PFL, primarily over the lack of fights and even communication coming from the promotion. And after recently attending a PFL event in Paris where Mousasi still made no headway in booking a fight, the former Bellator middleweight champion has reached his limit.
>“Yeah, [I feel disrespected] because they don’t even want to pick up the phone and talk to us,” Mousasi continued. “It’s not even funny anymore. It’s the worst organization so far. I’ve fought in a lot of organizations, this is the worst one.”

what are some possible reasons my bike doesn't go as fast as it used to? the gears don't shift smoothly anymore and it feels like the chain is worn down but I don't know enough about bikes to assess it myself. my bike was built in 2007 so it's not new, but what are some common issues with a bike this old? I want to get it repaired so I can ride it again.
🧵 BJJ vs Sambo

I always was saying that despite common myths jitsres have great single and double leg takedowns and judo and sambo guys overestimate their abilities to le "strike people with earth". I felt this myself when I did BJJ and sparred with judokas.
And finally some russian jitsers went to sambo competitions without any preparation and here is results

Jitsers are absolute fucking beasts when it comes to single leg takedowns and samboists rarely can do a decent throw, more often their throws look like some shitty roll overs.
🧵 Would Judo or MMA be for a fat fuck?
Anonymous at Tue, 21 May 2024 06:47:07 UTC No. 198396
I want to do some sort of martial art but there are only judo places and an MMA place nearby, the MMA place focuses on BJJ, kickboxing and catch wrestling, they are part of the Zé Radiola team and some jap jiu jitsu org so I don't think it's a mcdojo at least, no clue how to check if a judo place is a mcdojo or not tho.
I'm mainly worried about tearing an acl due to my fatness.

Realistic conditioning that people from MMA, Kickboxing and Muay thai do to get stronger and take shots without dying
What is one on one text book conditioning for fighting, I am weak af and can't take shots easily at all
🧵 Assuming Jake Paul VS Mike Tyson is fixed...
Anonymous at Fri, 17 May 2024 19:55:15 UTC No. 198064
THEN why are bets allowed on this fight?
How can a fight be notoriously fixed with money matters behind? It's would be illegal, they would get sued.
So i believe it's not fixed... I want to believe.. it's not fixed.

Is Judo the best single martial art in terms of self defense?
When it comes to street fights, almost everyone can agree that being on the ground is bad considering the possibility of things like glass being on the ground and someone else coming up and kicking you in the head. Therefore wouldn't the best martial art for street fights be one where the whole goal is to slam your opponent into the ground without falling yourself? Especially because while a person would expect punches and kicks from their opponent, something like a hip throw would likely catch them by surprise

Before anyone here says anything about the potential match up between Merab and Suga Sean at UFC 306 just remember that Merab beat Yan (bantamweight goat) with ease while Suga won by a commonly disputed decision
