I'd love to learn more about it, i've got a pretty good reach but no power.. and there's no boxing school within an hour where I live.
thanks man. im lucky to have one in my school or else i probably wouldn't go all the way to D.C. to do it. Ill wear an HMT logo into one of my fights if the school allows it, but the amatuer athletic commission probably wont like that too much haha

Same with me, I feel useless in mount. I think mount is most effective in a real match/fight for just pounding the ---- out of their face. I'm way more comfortable to have them in guard, but I think this is probably a bad habit for a real fight because you're still fairly open to catch a fist or elbow to the face even if you have good position and are careful. Its too easy to put a lot of force in a downward strike... gravity pwnz joo. One of my favorite submissions is when the opponent has you in a half guard-- you have to be quick, but you can pivot on the leg that he has wrapped and fall onto his leg for a leg bar (for lack of better vocab), but my go to from guard is always the triangle (i am of course stereotypically long-legged :P )

Ditto. I actually have some pretty bad scar tissue from fighting on my forehead that doesnt allow me to fight anymore. Any solid shots and well swells like crazy. I spend the next week draining fluid out of it. Good times.

you are right, but newbz do not demand the posting of ****. If you see the need for ****, it is YOUR civic duty as a newbie member of this forum to post said ****. Post away, boylover
