That's borderline child abuse. Why not spend his life landlocked then teach him to swim by throwing him off a boat into the ocean?

homeschooling isn't a bad idea if you know what you're doing and they have certain places where your kid can meet up with other homeschooled kids and they can socialize from there

unfortunately way too many people only homeschool their kids because they're religious nutjobs who think the american education system is ran by satanic communists

Some stick out in my mind and were fun to watch, like a sumo getting his teeth knocked out by a savateur at UFC 1, but I prefer boxing/mma where randos aren't just thrown to the lions. Technique is fun to see too!

A lot of old "past times" could get downright nasty. Just going with stuff that was popular in the British Isles there were things like "backswording,"stick fighting, types of wrestling, pugilism, old forms of soccer and more. poo poo could go off the rails pretty fast, even if done in a sportive context (although "backswording" in the 18th century was usually done with sticks - trainers for actual backswords) And a lot of them actually persisted, in various forms, into the Victorian era or early 20th century.

Some good period descriptions on that page by the way.

My favorite part is at about 2:15 in the video where she just shoves her opponent against the cage and just lands a savage elbow when she bounces off.

Also her entire career was basically the plot of Rocky III. Good fighter but all her matches were with palookas to build her brand.

Joanna is amazing. Funny, cute and nice outside the ring and on social media, and an ice cold killer in the ring. She is to striking what Ronda was to grappling before she was destroyed. Someone on the forums called her a "human woodchipper", and that is a good description of her fighting style. Every time you go into an exchange with her, you will come out worse than she does.

Yah that mom got destroyed but she took 3 solid rights before getting knocked down (and of course the brutal right she ate while on her knees). Not too shabby imo
