Got humbled by a manlet at his MMA gym, anyone else?
>be me, 6'2 260lbs
>been lifting for 8 months, finally seeing gains
>coworker is 5'7 maybe 150lbs soaking wet
>always wearing tapout shirts, cringe af
>one day he says "wanna spar sometime bro?"
>lmao this manlet serious?
>tell him "sure, but I'm much stronger than you" he just smiles
>fast forward to weekend
>show up to his MMA gym
>immediately regret everything
>he throws one leg kick
>my shin feels like it exploded
>try to grab him, he slips out like I'm not even there
>eat a punch, then another
>vision goes blurry
>wake up on the mat
>he's helping me up, not even breathing hard
>mfw I thought bench press = fighting ability
>mfw strength means nothing without technique
Why did no one tell me this would happen /fit/? How many of you have been reality checked like this?

if this story is real (its not) then that nigga must have hated you. trained fighters dont just invite randoms to hard sparring unless they want to give them brain damage

True. Usually guys who train won't do headshots unless they know you're serious and actually train. Leg kicks (taps) and body shots are different.
If homie came out and blasted a low kick then something upstairs he's a prick or anon is a prick. One of the two.. or both
>>76759156
sounds like you never sparred ever. First time I sparred i went up against some 130lb dude. I weight 188lbs, first punch he threw was a cross straight to my nose. My eyes watered and all the snot in my nose shot out.
People really dont understand what sparring is until they actually do it, you arent playing paddy cake out there

This story is complete bs because A if he wanted to "spar " with you and knocked you out or making you blurry hes honestly just an insecure piece of trash who wanted to feel good about himself hitting and untrained and unsuspecting fighter , and B i know this didnt happen anyway , i just wanted to poke holes in your story.

Sparring is not paddy cake but you objectively shouldnt be getting "knocked out" or seeing double from getting hit.

Unless you are a 200kg WSM competitor your 100kg bench for 1 rep means nothing against someone trained
After my first MT session my shins were so bruised I'm questioning whether I'm about that life
That was with shin pads

Invite him to a lift out at your gym.
