Challenge to Maximus

I agree. It always comes back to people being technical at their sport when you break it down.
Athleticism is good but who cares if you can't kick the ball where it's meant to go.
Unless you are Bo Jackson or Herschel Walker you are not making an NFL roster without first training for alactic outputs. You are telling people who aren't even athletes that just going out and training technique is enough which is flat out wrong. I had scholarships oppurtunities at several colleges as I have told you all by only focusing on technique in my late teens early 20s which I turned down because it wasn't what I wanted. Had known that just playing sport wasn't enough I would have got better opportunities. I am saving others that want help not make the same mistakes I did in my athletic training.

You aren't making an NFL roster unless you show the ability to perform in your sport to a high enough level to be worth a look.

So you got scholarships by doing the thing you are saying not to do, but that's wrong because you turned it down?
I will save people from making the same mistake, just take the scholarships ...

It isn't about getting scholarships it is about being a better athlete not just good enough to get money. Your line of thinking is complete insanity and it sounds like a joke.

So instead of taking a scholarship to a school to play the sport you want and get better in their program, you should not take the scholarship and just go lift weights instead for free?

Most college S and C programs in the early 2000s were very bad. Not only strength train appropriately but explosive training and proper conditioning protocols. That isn't why didnt take the scholarships anyways I talk about this in another thread.
 
2026 ? Why so far out ?
 
They can meet in the middle. The middle is London, Kiribati. The biggest major city in the middle is surprisingly Honolulu.
I don't think Max likes to fight. Eric is motivated. Max likes to train, he isn't into it. By 2026 we forgot this. Is it even good.
 
Respectfully. WTF are you guys doing? lol
I know haha. We have gone from fighting on Karate Combat for some reason, to fighting in a persons backyard because I think that you need to be able to play your sport to be good at it.

Atleast I am apparently getting a free trip out of it. Everyone knows it won;t happen and we will just say it was because of the other person. Sherdog gonna Sherdog.

2026 ? He said anytime any place and that he could beat a Pro MMA featherweight turning up to his doorstep.

I was going to arrange him a set of armour and everything and we could have fought in this if he came to Australia:

So again like I said, you achieved good enough results at your sport to get supported to play it and chose not to.
That was achieved by being technically good at your sport as you just said.

You are missing the point. A bigger stronger faster version of myself is the better athlete. Who do I want to fight or play against a smaller weaker but a diminished return technical athlete or a bigger stronger faster version of myself. Being a better athlete opens up more opportunity to win in any sport at any position. If you don’t maximize you genetics you won’t go as far as your potential will allow.

I have never said that wasn't the case. Again nobody is arguing against that, especially not me. You have said that technical skill isn't needed at all. Going as far as claiming simply taking 5 mins to 1 hour to learn to throw a punch or be shown the sport is all that is needed.

I even made sure to clarify the above was your position multiple times.

It doesn't matter how big,fast or strong you are if you can't do the sport.
 
@ROcknrollracing what would / will your strategy be against Max ? How long do you think does the fight go, outcome prediciton ? What aspects of his game do you think are the most dangerous ?

@maximus__ do you think you can hang with da streetz and Erics explosiveness ? Do you got enough skills to react to his blitz, he likely is trying to finish you from the get go ? If you both were in Australia would you accept the challenge and throw down ? What do you think is dangerous about him ?

That's why we are doing armoured combat. I will take the initial blitz on my shield and armour. Once he fatigues I will use my superior skills in my chosen ruleset to disarm him and then finish him via armour being really hard to fight in.

The only way he can beat me is by learning the technical skills of fighting in armour. Therefore I win the argument of technique vs strength.

ok so you don´t wanna fight ? You are making a joke out of it. I mean it´s his call out to you. I am merely part of the audience.
 
I am a mean instigator. Thing is you both don´t want it.

Eric : let´s fight in 2026

Max : Let´s go knight mediveal rule set

To be fair fighting doesn´t solve anything, it´s just for fun. Max didn´t say he was a better fighter than Eric, he just said skill trumps general athletic ability. I agree with Max. Even if Eric won a fight, we still don´t agree with his ranking of skill.
