Bully Beatdown – Music Television’s MMA Teaching Show

Growing up as a small child in Ketchikan, Alaska, there is not a lot to do. So one of many favorite issues for individuals to do (particularly when you’re greater) is to pick on the little guy for entertainment. Now it might probably come from family, buddies, and at school. I certain went through the entire above, I used to be probably about one hundred lbs soaking wet, and graduated at a paltry a hundred and ten lbs (if I used to be fortunate). So I bought the bullying from everywhere. House, faculty, work, you title it, the bully found me. So I grew up with an appreciation for what it means to be a bullying victim. Bully Beatdown is the last word present for ex nerds like myself. This is how it works, the bully is obtainable 10 Gs to accept a battle with an MMA professional. They get a potential $5,000 for surviving the 1st round and $1,000 less for every time they get submitted (grappling solely). Then they get $5,000 for surviving the 2nd round (kickboxing solely), they get nothing within the 2nd if they can not survive it. (I’ve yet to see a bully survive the 2nd round). All the cash that the bully loses goes to the sufferer(s) of the bully. Sounds awesome right? But, I do know what you’re thinking, I understand how this works, but what does this show educate me about fighting/the right way to deal with bullies. It’s a must to look deep into the show to grasp, and look beneath the ft and fists which are thrown. Let me explain. Here’s what you possibly can be taught from Bully Beatdown. 1. Somewhat training goes a great distance, none of the fights I’ve seen have had excessive technical ability involved beyond starting stuff, except Michael Westbrook does a submission combo in his combat with the bully, however does not do it once more in the episode as a result of he did not have to. Your primary bully has zero fighting skill and can be overwhelmed by somebody who knows what they’re doing. Even straight boxing gives you an edge on a bully, if you know how to slip and counter successfully (even in opposition to an enormous man, in case your timing is down pat). And if you know about Frank Shamrock’s button principle, you’ll be able to even do better in a combat towards a bigger opponent. So get some technical combating talent like: boxing, grappling (BJJ, or submission wrestling), and also kickboxing. Do that and you’ll make a bully sorry he messed with you. The opposite factor to notice is that intimidation is a serious part of successful a fight; you barely have to throw a punch in case you have the edge in intimidation. That is how it works for the bullies, half the time, if you happen to wore your gyms affiliation shirt, you’d in all probability intimidate the bully into not attacking. You’d capable of avoid the struggle by stepping into their head earlier than they thought of the probabilities of winning. Even the truth that they could lose can be a deterrent, because bullies love simple marks and you, at this level would not seem such an obvious mark. What can you study from Bully Beatdown? An entire lot and you’ll get hidden suggestions from it about the right way to struggle and the best way to win fights earlier than they begin. Bear in mind to: wear your college affiliation shirt, and to truly learn something. You’ll be physically fitter, have extra self confidence, and you’ll really have the ability to put down a bully if in case you have to.
