Bilbo's Three Weekend Wishes.

[Youngblood]

Lyle, I am not ripping on you for liking one form of defence over another. It isn't really about street fighting, IMHO. I don't box to street fight. I suspect many MMA and martial arts people don't do what they do to fight in the street either. If someone is doing that, boxer or MMA...well they are likely a jerk no matter what is their thing. It is our sport of choice.

I do take offence on how you stereotypically catagorize ALL MMA fans and ALL MMA fighters into one group, one type of person. I would hope that you being an intelligent person could somehow get beyond that sort of bias. It is bias.

I like you Lyle, and I enjoy debating and reading debates you are involved in. This deal here I do find bothersome. As I've said. I know many ex-MMA fighters. Some of them are very good friends now to me. And they are some of the quietest, respectful and nicest people I have ever known.
