‘Internet Karate Kid’s Brash Attitude for Coach Ends Horribly Wrong As He Becomes the Very Definition of ’F**k Around and Find Out’ Meme in MMA Training

MMA is relatively new when compared to practices like Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Muay Thai, or even boxing, for that matter. However, this young sport has gained traction all around the world rather rapidly and is on par with other martial arts in terms of popularity already. So much so that people are self-teaching the sport to themselves. Which is good, in and of itself. But to coach an MMA instructor is not very wise.

Being aspirational and conceited never goes in favor of anyone. The pompous student faced the same fate in his pursuit of coaching the instructor.

Challenged an MMA instructor and regretted it immediately

A clip on YouTube shows a young, brash pupil trying to teach an MMA instructor about the sport. The video starts with the young student explaining the workings of blocking a kick and how he can defend himself from any kind of kick. “Any kick. Any kick, it wouldn’t matter,” said the student. He continued with confidence, “I’m just gonna get that leg, and I’m gonna stop you.” The instructor seemed visibly patient throughout the gimmick and tried to make sense of the situation.

The coach offered to go easy at first when the student challenged the coach to demonstrate his skill. The learner, however, didn’t like the way it sounded and adamantly persisted in sparring, but didn’t pick the right words. “You’ve been disrespectful the whole time… You’ve been putting me down this whole time since I’ve been here,” said the student. And that ticked the coach off completely.

The coach responded, saying, “That’s how you feel, my man? You sure you wanna put some gloves on now? Sure you wanna spar?”. The coach strikes at the brazen student who was perched on a throne of lies and gave him a taste of the ground soon after. Hence, the saying stands true here, “History has never been kind to people who play God” or coach, for that matter.

The rise of MMA

An official MMA match wasn’t even a thing up until the early 90s. The very first official MMA fight was in 1993 at UFC 1 in Denver, Colorado. And the sport has received wide acceptance among fans all over the world. With time, mixed martial arts have become one of the most sought-after sports. Today, a big MMA fight, a UFC PPV bout, rakes in numbers as high as a major boxing fight. And names like Conor McGregor and many others have inspired many young people to learn MMA for its riveting nature.

As captivating and recent as the sport is, it still requires the same amount of dedication and training. It is a combat sport, after all. And there is definitely a graph on the learning process. And given its complexity, one has to be patient with the process. There are a ton of online tools available for people to learn about and through sports, which is great.

The craft of your chosen area may be learned very well through self-teaching. However, no skill can be mastered overnight, especially in combat sports.
