Here is a peek at the cover…
I stated before that I was going to write a book about fighting called, You Can’t Beat Me!
I decided to change my original plan and break it up into two books. Volume 1 will be available on 11 March in eBook format and will cover the basics of fighting: Why people fight, strategies, ranges,and how to handle disputes (physical/verbal).
Volume 1 is going to apply to absolutely everyone. Business people, Martial Artists, Spouses, etc. Volume 2 will is still on the drawing boards and will cover self-defense and Martial Arts moves, workouts, and fighting drills to improve our fighting abilities.
According to a question posted on Yahoo Answers…
Who will win UFC 94 – BJ Penn or Georges St. Pierre (GSP)? The fans tell all…
GSP gets 9 votes and BJ receives 7. Fans are pulling for GSP. Do you agree with their answers?
Answers are:
– I say it’s going to be a real close fight but I’m going with youth and not just a real flexible dude w/BJJ, GSP has dominated people from the last fight when he still won, victory is victory, but BJ Penn is real good and much credit to trying to capture 2 belts!
– BJ Penn
– GSP for sure as long as he can keep the fight standing up. On the ground is a tossup cause even though BJ’s BJJ is good GSP’s wrestling is good and he’s got more lbs. in muscle than BJ considering he has to cut to make welterweight and he’s way too lean to make lightweight. He just might be able to overpower ‘The Prodigy” on the ground as long as he does not allow for even the slightest mistakes for Penn will most definitely be looking to capitalize on even the smallest of things.
– I think that GSP will win because his wrestling is so good and, he will no doubt push the pace against BJ Penn, Penn is very good but if you look at his last 3 fights they’ve all been against guys who were at least 3 inches shorter than him (Pulver, Stevenson, & Sherk) and had a 3 inch reach disadvantage which resulted in him throwing a lot of jabs to set up other combos, but because GSP has a 3 inch reach advantage along with using kicks, I think he will be able to keep BJ at bay long enough to get some takedowns and punish him on the ground, plus 4 or 5 rounds w/ GSP is going to be tiring for anyone especially Penn. I see the fight resulting in GSP winning by decision again, because I don’t think that he will TKO or submit BJ. I think GSP’s wrestling will be the difference.
– This is an easy question. Penn is going to win this with ease. People may not agree…… here are some things you may want to consider, First thing is in the first GSP Penn fight Penn was very dominate with GSP being 100%. Reason Penn lost was due to gassing out. Stamina was not up to par. With Penn being as focused as he now he can’t lose. I heard a video of Penn stating that he was looking to kill G in the ring not kidding. Will he do that, of course not? But with that mentality it will be hard for him to lose. GSP and Penn are my two favorite fighters don’t get me wrong I’m not a hater. With being said GSP is training with Olympic wrestlers from Beijing so his wrestling is the best in the UFC. BJ is slacking on the ground with BJJ. stand just about equal BJJ may edge. Bottom line we are in for a great fight enjoy and Penn will stop GSP with no problem. mark my words.
– I would say GSP he is conditioned more, just look at his figure. BJ Penn is not so much even at 155. BJ Penn does not use kicks. GSP has a karate background so he has no problem sending a few kicks to the head. BJ BJJ is good but GSP stand up is good. So GSP has a advantage from the start, so BJ would have to take him down.
But any fighter can win anytime, because they make mistakes, but I’m rooting for GSP
– St. Pierre will win. Although Penn’s skills have improved, St. Pierre is all around the more conditioned athlete. He out-wrestled two decorated wrestlers, and he will not get caught in a stupid submission. He’s learned by his mistakes in the past, and he’ll be able to out-last Penn.
– GSP IS GONNA WHOOP THAT ***!! It’s going to be like GSP/Serra 2
– Georges St. Pierre is going to win
– GSP Will win no doubt
– I think Penn is going to take the belt at UFC 94.
– I’m going for Penn on this one even though GSP is on his game, I just don’t think he will beat Penn again
– Toss up both good fighters I will go with Penn he is so relaxed when fighting and GSP is great but a lil’ stiffer
– GSP via 5 round decision. I’m going to go 49-46 on the score cards.
– BJ Penn all day he’s going to knockout GSP ugly *** out
– I love BJ Penn!!! He will win by a submission!!!
There is a video on the Internet titled, “The Battle at Kruger.” In this video there is a herd of water buffalo in the African wild approaching a pond for some refreshment. Off to the side there is a pride of lions crouching and waiting to make their move on the herd. The herd migrates closer and closer to the lions until all of a sudden one buffalo spots the lions. He turns and runs and the herd follows.
The lions pursue the herd and find a straggler. There is a baby buffalo that falls behind and becomes the focus of the lions’ aggression. The lions tackle this little guy into the water. They get him under control and begin to drag him out of the water when a crocodile latches on to his leg. It is now a tug of war between the lions and the crocodile.
The lions finally pull him free and onto the shore. Meanwhile the herd of buffalo discovers the little guy is missing and returns to help. The herd surrounds the lions and they begin to remove the lions one by one. Finally, the baby buffalo is freed and the lions are chased off.
Don’t worry I didn’t ruin the video, if you decide to view it you will still be amazed. The reason I told you all of this is that this video exemplifies the strategies of a fight. There are three and they are offence, defense and to remain neutral. We are familiar with what these three words mean already but this chapter will relate them to a fight and give you the knowledge to determine what strategy is best for the moment.
