btu i love grappling, and honestly alot of grappling tournaments are run casually and you dont really get nervous just anxious ya know

LOL, funny you should say that.
My kickboxing instructor and I who have really good striking? We went to the Gracie Tournaments in Santa Cruz the last two years. We bascially lost badly, but held our own I guess.
But when we watch as spectators? We are in awe just how well some guys are grappling. We sit and with our jaws dropped say to each other
"Man these guys can defend themselves".
Even though we know if we smacked one of them they'd have problems. Lol. But it's a respect thing. I just love really really good grapplers.
Probably because I suck at it.
LOL
