Dog boxing, out of position fighting, very interesting. Although one never thinks about it, if you’re concentrating to recover to a position of comfort or familiarity, you’re not concentrating on winning. In effect your mind is “out of the fight”. So having a 360° comfort zone in a fight allows you to always be concentrating on winning. Nice!

Humor can sometimes resolve the aggression. A sense of humor is always a good sense.
