I dont mean to sound like an A-Hole, but here goes.........I more and more recently question others understanding of whether or not THEY realize the difference between Martial arts and what should be only be understood as Martial Sport. Wishing there was a way to better educate the Masses before they join a school as to better fulfill THEIR needs because there is a HUGE difference, especially outside of the Dojang(Martial Arts School). If you compete, score points, utilize time limits, or MINIMIZE or RESTRICT the Martial Arts techniques allowed during a Fight, your most likely a Martial Sport. When I step into the ring, Im facing myself first and foremost, as well as the skill set of the other fighter, I use them as a measuring tool to test myself, I use ALL techniques taught to me in a realistic fashion, no matter how long it takes, to test myself against my opponent, and when we are done or our fight is stopped, we have a mutual understanding and respect for who WON this time :)
