hey folks, just wanted to buy a round of drinks for my cyber mma buddies, my son competed in his first bjj tournament on sunday and finished in first place, going undefeated in a 8 person group.
if there is any young people on this forum or any parents considering signing up their children and have any questions feel free to ask.

Actually, now that you mention it, I was considering putting my 8 year old son into something.....not neccesarily for competition, but more for defending himself, teach dicipline etc.....not sure what to put him in though.....there are so many different clubs around....tae kwon do, karate, judo, etc.....any recomendations?????
BTW.....congratulations on your son's victory!

Why don't you shut up and just take the boxing match with Ortiz already, instead of walking around like your sh*t don't stink, with a snarl on your face as if you're hot sh*t when really you're nothing but f*cking cold piss! You thieving c*nt!
Oh, and congratulations on your son's victory. Obviously he already has more balls than you!

BTW.....congratulations on your son's victory! | for an 8 year old. depending on your money sitaution and availability, i would put him in judo or bjj, karate and tkd are good but at that age i found the focus was more on patterns and forms, that shit cant help on the streets, but to keep a young kids interest is hard, they distract easy, with judo or bjj it's something thats requires a partner, you can do individual exercises, but for the most part it takes two to tango, which a child will find more fun.
hope it helps. i think every kid should know some form of self defense, it's a messed up world.

congrats Tapper
and i too think Judo or BJJ is a good idea, along with getting him started in wrestling if you can find a junior level wrestling org in your area.
i did the kung fu thing young, and it helped me focus, but was in general a waste of time outside of that.
