CMA are sometimes referred to as "quick fight"
meaning things should be over rather quickly.
none of the teachers that I have met over the yrs, would one be able to
really "spar" with in the sense of being able to break off the encounter, regroup
and then start again. Either they engaged and it was over or not, "not very likely
",
they disengaged. The mind set is different, its not about being equal
They did let others attack them or try things on them
and one was able to feel what happened. I would not call it sparring as is
normally portrayed
when the US Military attacks, they try to use overwhelming force, speed and
and strategy allowing no possibility of a counter if possible. Which is kind of funny at times
when reading about people talking about fairness or rules in war.
.
in many of the post the commentators always seem to refer to "if someone faced this guy or that guy" ect
with both having equal skills, if the skills are equal its really about the person, the CMA idea always has been about
the skill, hence the development of different styles and methods in an attempt to give the "person" an advantage using a different
"style or method"
Things like "cardio" while important may not be as the skill itself is for what are called "quick fights".
If one intends to enter a ring, and fight there, then conditioning probably has an equale to or greater factor then
then the skill itself.
