Any MMA fighters (amateur or pro)? - Off-topic

I see one other post. I started training in September of last year, shortly before I turned 30. I've had one fight, which I lost via decision (that I disagree with). I have another coming up here in August that I'm starting to prepare for now.
I'm personally more of a grappler/jiu jitsu guy; I just enjoy the ground game a lot more than I do standup.

STREET FIGHTER COUNT? <--- they should let that be recognized as a professional sport.

I used to do boxing for 14 years and i got involved a bit with judo and greco-roman wrestling but I quit the last 2 years. I want to start doing something again and I'm considering go for mma

mfknboss - I spose you could, though I personally don't see *all* of the sport in there.
mprou - That's a pretty good base, overall.

Well the bare knuckle aka prize fighting was a professional sport for 100 yrs until the queensburry rules came into effect..prior to those rules in all of bare knuckle 100 yr history there was not 1 fatality..now "with" gloves there are 3-4 fatalities in the ring per year. The last bare knuckle heavyweight fight went 75 rounds dont get me wrong mma is bad ass..and GSP is a beast..but i am a HUGE fan of bare knuckle

i move a small band of rebels close to the hill, you scramble your helicopters which attack the wrong people.. something to do with the communication devices you were using not being compatible (probably made by apple?). the friendly fire incident leaves your troops in utter chaos allowing my small band of rebels to walk in and take the hill like candy from a baby.

You, my good sir, is most certainly wrong. I have long carved out my Kingship of XDA's off-topic with my rapier wit, broadsword trolling, hammering command of English, scalpel-like sarcasm, vice-hard poetry, brass-knuckle-duster-worthy teasing of Husam's virginity, arrow-straight love of Transformers pr0n and, most of all, my nuclear bomb power of the "Off-Topic Endless Loop" (patent pending).
As King, I have a most noble heritage and it is my right, and possibly my left too, to be THE KING!

Apple's most successful(and irritating) product: meet the iSmug

Hi all,
i have been using this forum for some months after I got my amazing android phone. I am happy there is finally competition for good phones that are not iphones. I do not like apple's way of doing business and definitely the smugness of most people who get an iphone and think their coolness has gone off charts.
You know what I mean? People who have a need to show off their iproducts in public? I am so happy i have an android. Android people are so much fun to talk to and cool to discuss wasy to improve their phone.
Apple's best product has been the ismug What do you think? do you know what i am talking about?
Message to the moderator: i hope this is the right forum(if not please move it)
that is so true! i personally appreciate the quality of apple products, however i believe that apple products are incredibly overpriced, and their biggest advantage is their biggest downfall: Apples iron grip on their software
Lemme tell you a short story.
I am on a trip to Athens the other day and,as everyone in a large city,I used the subway to go to my destination.Entering the train,I found a seat next to a guy who looked like being 20-25 years old.He didn't seem geeky at all in fact.I sat next to him,but then he did something he shouldn't have.He pulled an iPhone 4 out of his pocket!Oh sh!t.There was also a girl sitting right in front of us,in a seat looking towards us.She told him "Nice phone you have there"(She had an old Sony Ericsson btw).He found a chance to show off then.And then,after I had lost my temper,I pulled my Galaxy S 2 out of my pocket and started playing with it.He looks at it,his eyes go wider than usual and awe was obvious in his expression.The girl(a beauty in fact) turns to my side and says "Your phone is nicer than the iPhone".Then I started to show off.The games,the screen,the effects,everything was better.That iSmug next to me turned white and got off at the next stop.The girl and I had a...nice time after that btw.
And what's the moral of the story?Android ftw!
Tolis that is an amazing story.
i think the only way to strike back at the apple cult is to make fun of their smugness
ps hi from thessaloniki
ps 2 Galaxy S ii is great
Most of the people think iProducts are COOL. It has now become a factor of an individual's "coolness".
Then someone pulls out their android phone and they're like, "Is that samsung?", "Bleh".
I am bored of listening: you have a Samsung? It looks like an iclone...;
Haha, Tht was funny and intersting at the same time

Why ppl not understand all fruit company topics will must go to off topic

Never been keen on glocks or sigs, and only certain 1911s.
A guy I know nearly killed his ex wife with his 92 at a firing range in Israel.
I've only ever been to military ranges (you have to be well spaced from the guy shooting to your left if there is no barrier) and always presumed most civilian ranges would be like you see in the movies (ie booths) but their range just had a long table.
She was shooting a little revolver to is right when an empty case ejected from his gun and went down the back of her neck. As she jumped from the burning metal she squeezed her trigger and sent a bullet skimming across her hair line!
The police did investigate to see if it was some elaborate plan to get rid of her - how much of a genius would you have to be to pull that one off?
When they got divorced, she got the Beretta

Crazy thing is when I turned 9 my step dad tried teaching me gun safety with a pellet rifle. I remember thinking not to tell him and let him be the dad he wants to be. I'd gone deer hunting and shot lots of animals before that. Squirrel, raccoon, fox, you know all the varmit animals and deer. He tried showing me how powerful the air pellet gun was by shooting a news paper. I'd shot countless animals before at point blank to put em down fully. I KNEW what real guns did. But he had a fun time that day being a dad and I'm glad for it.
