I've seen one gym in Taipei that offers "MMA classes." I get the impression that they're offering a lesser experience compared to taking dedicated striking and grappling courses individually. Then again, learning the combined disciples at the same time and using them both whilst sparring has its benefits of course.
My advice is to take it slowly, learn, and be prepared to fail a lot in your first month of classes. Also, if you're out of shape you're in for a world of pain. I was close to throwing up on my first few Muay Thai classes.
I'm really glad I don't go to American gyms.

lol industrian, it was sarcasm, just not blatant enough like scooter I guess.
Hahahaha classic. Jokes for 4 people are the best.
Roger Gracie close to signing with Blackhouse, may drop to 185
Nay, it shows more than weakness. It shows you have submitted to your opponent and you are now their bitch. No one will ever look at you the same, your dog will disown you.
NEVER TAP
BECAUSE JESUS WOULDN'T

Didn't work for Brock.
I'm watching the Legend Fighting Championship 7 undercard from YouTube last night. The first few fights have been good if anyone's bored. The announcer is something else.
Check this out. Dat stare.

Thanks, dude. That's awesome. Sucks that I can't order it (since I don't have cable/PPV, and I don't live in an online-available region). Oh well. :-\

I know you're joking man
, but I've heard stories of idiots in American gyms just trying to fuck people up deliberately. Didn't Evilore get injured from a guy not releasing a hold in one of his BJJ classes?He's going to be a skeleton. God help him if Paul Harris gets a hold on one of his legs.
This is ... bad. Then again I guess it's wrong of me to expect explosive action from a MMA event in Beirut.

Rd 1 was interesting and then the rest sucked. I'm gonna go get a massage.
Hint: Even I'm not watching. I'm in for Legend FC tonight, though!

I dunno, I kinda feel like that's all gyms?
The explosion of UFC has increased fanbase across all demographics, including dickheads. We have them in Canada too. I only had one bad experience as a white belt rolling with a skinhead purple belt. He was an asshole. After his first try-hard sub I was just like "fuck this shit" and tapped instantaneously everytime he got close to anything. I'm not getting my arm broken to avoid looking like a pussy.
He got pretty annoyed but holding a white belt in a sub after a tap would have gotten the shit kicked out of him by an instructor, and he knew that. They don't stand for that nonsense.

Tell them you have experience in the Harold Howard System. They'll be terrified of you afterwards.
Also, wtf did the world decide to collective vomit all of its Bad MMA this weekend? Fuck all that man
Honestly, with the exception of the main event, this event was entertaining.

No worse then when Danny "the Syndrome" Downs diarrhead in the middle of the UFC octagon.

You guys have long crossed BadMMA and are in the depths of hell you shall never recover from. It's went from BadMMA of "hey that guy had some wins in PRIDE or UFC" to "hmm that guy once was on a WEC prelim" and now to depths of "oh shit, that guy is a badass sheep herder in Lebanon."
Godspeed.
Godspeed.
