Been studying one form or another of martial arts most of my life. Most of the training has been informal training from skilled and formally trained fighters. I've personally been in hundreds of real "street" fights due to being incarcerated a few times when I was younger and growing up in a bad neighborhood. I always feel like I learn the most sparring and am looking for a partner near me for some light to moderate sparring in MMA and BJJ and general self defense training. I've been out of practice for about 4 years now. I'd prefer a partner either more skilled than me or significantly larger. Humble me and teach me some stuff.
I bounce between welterweight and middleweight. I'm not consistently either.
