It amazes me that so many people think that they are "special" or "unique". Usually they believe this because their mommy or daddy said they were during their childhood. News flash people.... no one is fucking special or unique. You are just you.... did that sound profound... I sure as hell hope not! I don't know how many "aspiring" fighters I talk to on a weekly basis... but I do know that at least every other one thinks that they have a "special" something that sets them a part from everyone else. Well that belief in that special something doesn't keep someone from knocking them the fuck out. Nothing in this world takes the place of purposeful, consistant training. And boxing and wrestling with your buddies in a garage does not count as training. Have enough respect for the sport of MMA to at least train at a real MMA gym that has an actual coach that has fought before and produces fighters that are successful in the cage. The fact that people actually believe that they can fight in this sport with little to no training is appalling to say the least. It shows complete lack of respect for the sport and to those who actually train and coach day in and day out for years.

If you meet people that fit the above description... tell them to grow a pair and train for real.
