ok guys, i took your advice and watched a couple 'how-to' vids on youtube to defend against the take down. yesterday i stopped by the local MMA club, to get some info about joining. at the end of our info sesh i ask for a sparring demo and like MMA fighters they are they didn't say NO. So i get into the octagon and the instructor says "don't hold back!" at that point i knew he was going for an easy take down just to prove his point. so when he went in for the take down i SPRAWLED and followed up with KNEE to the HEAD. i effin KO'd him!
he was not impressed. but i said i was going to come back next week to sign up!:sport-smi
