When I asked my teacher how he felt about Bruce Lee, he said, "I don't know. I have never met his teacher in any tournaments." IMO, there are 3 different kind of MA guys. Those who:
- don't go to any tournaments.
- go to tournaments but just watch and don't fight.
- go to tournament and fight.
You should be proud of yourself that you belong to the top 33% of the CMA population. As fas as advice, I can only give you one and that's "run your opponent down" (the highest level of CMA training IMO).
Here is one example: http://johnswang.com/Sanshou_6.wmv
i used a lot of that leg reaping last time. my goal this time was to try and do more striking and kicking. lol.
i need to find some really big and mean sparring partners. i had never gone up against a guy like this before (size + aggression), which was a big shocker. plus i hadn't been in the ring since last year. no matter how hard you train it's just not the same as actually being in the ring.
