HEY WHEN YOU GET ON THE MAT WITH SOMEBODY NEW YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT HIS M-O IS GOING TO BE. HOPEFULLY YOU HAVE SET UP MINIMAL RULES, NO LIMITS ON PUNCHING, ESPECIALLY IN THE FACE AND NUTS, ETC. 

 

MOST OF US LIKE TO KEEP THE RULES TO A MINIMUM. WE CAN EASILY BE SUPRISED BY SOME DIRTY TACTIC WE DIDNT EXPECT. THATS MY POINT HERE. WE NEED TO BE PREPARED FOR ANYTHNG LIKE A FIST TO THE NUTS, FINGERS IN THE ASS OR GETTING SLEEPERED OUT UNEXPECTEDLY. 

 

WITH ALL MY OPPONENTS, I ALWYS JUMP THEM DURING A BREAK WHEN THEY ARE GETTING A DRINK OR JUST CATCHING THEIR BREATH AND TAKE IT ALL THE WAY TO A TAP, PIN OR A FUCK. THEN I TELL THEM TO EXPECT THIS FROM ME AT ANY TIME RESTING OR NOT. THEN I ALSO ADD THAT I EXPECT TO BE JUMPED BY SUPRISE AT LEAST ONCE EVERY TIME WE MEET. 

 

THIS FORCES US BOTH TO BE READY FOR ANYTHING AND TEACHES A GUY TO THINK ON HIS FEET AND COME UP WITH A DEFENSE TO COUNTER ANYTHING THAT MAY CROP UP. SO IF YOUR PRACTICING WITH A PAL TRY THIS AS A STANDING RULE AND LOOK FOR SOMETHING DIRTY TO PULL THAT WILL BE A SUPRISE. 

 

THE OLD STANDBY, THE NUT GRAB HAS EVERY KIND OF VARIATION, A TWIST, A SLUG, A KNEE, ETC. THIS IS OLD STUFF TRY THINKING SOMETHING UP OTHER THAN WHAT EVERYBODY EXPECTS. 

 

MY POINT HERE IS TO BE READY FOR ANYTHING ABSOLUTELY ANYTHING! SO MANY GUYS CANT STAND TO LOSE AND WILL DO ANYTHING TO DISTRACT YOU WHILE YOU ARE PUTTING A HOLD ON THEM.
