MMA in Blog


Mixed Martial Art arent common words in our life and yet in blogging world. And surely many people still don't know what MMA is?

For me MMA means match or fight between athlete or martial artist from different style. Also each artist generally known not only one type of fighting style, he/she may known to specialize at some martial art, BJJ and Karate, or Judo and Sambo, etc.

I prefer to use term artist or athlete than fighter, because of the word Art (for artist) and legal tournament in almost of my download able videos. Although people seen MMA as brutal event or sport, its not as danger as boxing I think. I don't even know any MMA athlete got killed in MMA match. But I know boxer who died after match.

I have seen some blog with MMA theme. And some of them are better than mine. They try to give detail information about Martial Art style. In my blog I just post some good videos to download, people don't need to have deep knowledge about martial art to watch it. Just seen it as entertainment and will be better if they got insight from what they've watched.

Chess and Martial Art


Yesterday, one of my friend look at my blog and asked why I create the MA blog, because as she know, my hobby is chess. Yes and thats ok with my chess hobby along with MA. Im an ex chess teacher for about 3 years. I taught chess for children at age 5 until teenage. I never got my master title, but my students doing great at competition. The last championship that assisting by me, my student got bronze medal (South East Asia level).

Well there are same principles between chess and martial art. Do some wrong moves then your opponent will eliminate you. Also we must think precisely for attack and defense, even in martial art we're not thinking as long as in chess game, we still must put in strategy in game.

Practice makes perfect, chess and martial art needs practice. And also need sparring between you and "opponent". In chess we know also term combination, including pinning, discovery, and others. Combination also made in martial art, you can hit and lock, hit and take down, etc.

And as i know Lennox Lewis (boxer) also study chess to apply it in boxing match. So there are nothing odd about learning chess and martial art.

Government of Indonesia has blocked some of big site due to Fitna Movie. My ISP blocked 7 site, including youtube, rapidshare, multiply (i dont know why multiply), metacafe, liveleak, themoviefitna and myspace.

Well whatever the government do, i will strive to improve my blog

Fight or Flight?


Fight or Flight, some said that was part of our basic instinct. When we encounter a problem, we can choose to engage or runaway. I think we can choose wisely when to fight and when to avoid or run. Runaway doesnt mean you're coward. Sometimes we must run because we're outnumbered or in disadvantage condition ( for the safety of people near us, family or girlfriend ).

Below there is a video you can download for free. In that video, you can watch a boxer who can dodge quickly opponent's strike ( he dodge it nicely ), but then he try to run from his opponent, and unfortunately the match ended bad for him, although commentator said it was entertaining match.

Spin Kick


Rarely happened in Martial Art's competition. Its a beautiful style but not very effective to perform. In downloadable video below, you can see how the spin kick performed in real martial art tournament. The artist gave his opponent feint mid kick and suddenly with good pace, he executed the spin kick. Really nice!

What the...!?


What the...!? if you watch the downloadable clips between Lautaro and his opponent. Well, Lautaro himself..isnt as popular as other MMA fighter like Cro Cop, Fedor, Gracie, Liddle or Mir. Lautaro win this match with a perfect punch (or lucky?), i dont know either Lautaro is a good fighter or he is lucky to get that type of opponent (who kindly gave his face to be punched?!)

The video worth to download, and i think you should watch te replay...because you dont know what happen exactly when you watch it at first time.
