I am an ex-pro fighter.... I remember when I was playing soccer for my uni on a weekend, and one of the opposition players was trying to pick a fight on the field.... so I stopped and asked him; 'what do you do for a living'... after a few words he said he was a brick layer.... so I said I have never laid a brick in my life, how would we go if we were in competition to lay bricks.... he sniggered and said anytime, anywhere.... I just smiled and said - 'I fight for a living.. I'm a professional Muay Thai fighter' .... nothing more needed to be said.
Great topic. Basically, Don't judge a book by its cover. Most untrained and inexperienced people Don't know or understand that Real Trained fighters don't look like movie stars or athletic models. As a 50 year old man, with a plain unimpressive physique, I am entertained when young athletic students roll with me and get tapped .... because they do not know I have been training in BJJ and MMA for 25 years... LOL Don't judge books.....
