RE: My brief time as a amateur MMA fighter

I bet you experienced being kicked in the balls too

Well of course. This is never on purpose but it certainly puts a stop to the fight quick.

If you have managed to stay in shape in your 30's you better get on it soon because yes, very few have what it takes to continue into their 40's. They are too breakable :)

Where I live there is a group of people that only fight in a certain age range and honestly, everyone is so nice in that group because no one has any fighting career aspirations at that point. It's just a little difficult to participate because most people in their 40's have jobs that they probably can't just turn up all bashed up to - although it probably would make for a good coffee break chat.

I have a lot of losses too, but I was never knocked out.

Good job!
