Mixed Martial Arts

Do you like to watch UFC, Pride or K-9? It has always been my favorite TV show, it’s just so interesting to watch! The match are just unpredictable and.. well, it’s just closer to reality than the regular martial art fighting! I’m so interested in MMA fighting that I want to learn MMA myself.. I decided to learn the king of MMA, the Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.. You can find more information about BJJ everywhere on the internet and watch the fight.. I won’t talk about them since there’s just sooo much to talk when we are talking the correlation between BJJ with MMA..

It’s been months since I learned BJJ.. everything is fun, im really enjoying myself with the art, the teaching, the dojo, the teachers.. except with the uniform.. my uniform (gi) is just so uncomfortable! it’s so heavy yet it got torn easily and it’s just.. not comfortable.. (In BJJ, the gi is also considered as one of our “weapon” It’s a very vital weapon that can decide the result of the match) I have searched everywhere on the store in my town and all I found is the standard gi that I currently use.. More problem comes when I decided to enter an MMA tournament in my town, the tournament needs me to wear some MMA gears for protections like fight gloves, hand wraps, mouth guards, etc.. And I really just can’t find it any store on my town! Well, maybe martial art is just not as popular as football.. I can find many football gear specialist here yet I haven’t seen any store specializing in martial art gears here.. :(

Thank God one of my teacher there told me where to find martial art gears on the internet.. There I can find all those MMA gear that I need, and I’m just surprised when I take a look at the MMA gloves section.. it’s just great! the design is just so cool and.. how do I say it?.. all the items there looks so.. "Professional".. I think my favorite MMA fighter also wears the same item! Well, if you are also a martial artist like me, why don’t you come and take a look? You might get surprised with their collections :)
