do you use face protection? iam thinking about geting one but not sure if the one with clear plastic or cage would be batter. I will use it for my mma sparing.
getting hit is part of the game man. Sounds like you aren't cut out to be a fighter honestly.
have to disagree with you every professional fighter I know uses gear when they spar hard. No reason to risk cuts and broken noses etc in a sparring session especially if you have a real fight coming up.getting hit is part of the game man. Sounds like you aren't cut out to be a fighter honestly.
well the traditional open face ones may not but the new ones with the guard that goes across the nose can certainlly help I'm thinking of picking one up. BTW is that Avi you? looks like you are a fighter? MMA? just wondering always nice to meet other fighters. I've been doing this for a pretty long time now had my first fight back in 09. that Avi is a pic of me working the guard under the watchful eye of Cesar G.Headgear wont stop broken noses. More for cut reduction, general damage reduction. Should know how to spar enough to not need it, but whatever. Head gear is a great idea, im not sure about a face shield. If you are learning mma, you shouldent need to know about knife/gun defence. The best defense is usually running as fast as you can/not getting in a situation with a gun or knife pointed at you in the first place. MMA is a sport, not a street combat system
Idiotic reply. Why bother to wear gloves, wraps, mouthpiece, cup, then. Sounds like you aren't cut out to be a fighter if you're going to use protective gear.
For mma sparring I would not use a face shield as restrict your view and can interfere with breathing. Some of the cheaper ones can catch overhead lights also impeding vision. I like fairtex because their products stand up to abuse. They offer full face headgear that covers your nose and pretty much stops boxing gloves from contacting your face. I opt for headgear that does not cover the nose as it restricts sight and breathing less.
I agree with you. However he is askign about face shields and if you are talking about face shields then I do disagree with you.have to disagree with you every professional fighter I know uses gear when they spar hard.

cauliflour ear is from grappling.is it just me or is everyone in North America an MMA fighter?
cauliflour ear sounds real unappealing to me.
wear the head guard, it will save whats left of your pretty face.
well his avi looks like it's in a ring probably after a fight and I'm sure he is very proud of competing. Fighters train hard to push themselves. It's like any other sport. Chewed ears usually come from years of wrestling even when wearing headgear you get it. It's not intentional it's a byproduct of the sport and I don't think most people do it to try and look cool.why would anyone want to look like kristophers AVI?for some reason dudes today think it makes them cool or tough to get the sht beat out of them.... and to have a chewed up set of ears and a caven in nose.
pfffffoh buddy I certainly get it! I used to train with Garry Goodrich In Southern Ontario where him and I are from, he owns his own mma club there, but I used to go to the same boxing club with him and learn as much as I could from the guy, for me personally I just think there are better ways to compete and push yourself. Just personal opinion, i could care a less about others, and if you respond to this cut out your fckn attitude.
YOU GET IT! PFFF
What attitude? i don't think i said anything with an attitude or offensive? If you think there are better ways to compete than that's fine for you. Some people like football, basketball, golf whatever. I am not saying fighting is the only way but it's what some people choose so no reason to get down on them about their choiceoh buddy I certainly get it!

you mean he punched her and dropped her or do you mean screwed her and never called her back? Whatever the case is I would love to hear the story behind itand yes garry is kind of a crappy fighter, and he nailed my aunt and dropped her, lol.
Yes.is everyone in North America an MMA fighter?
And your reply "getting hit is part of the game man. Sounds like you aren't cut out to be a fighter honestly." obviously alluded to this.actually I think your reply was idiotic as he was askign about face shields with clear plastic or a cage not gloves, wraps, mouthpieces and cups. I have never scene anyone spar with a face shield.
Of course if he is using knives then that is a different story and I am not familiar with that. I have done this kind of training with fake plastic knives but if you guys are using real knives then I don't know what to tell ya.
alluded to what? what is the issue here? What point are you arguing?And your reply "getting hit is part of the game man. Sounds like you aren't cut out to be a fighter honestly." obviously alluded to this.
I get it even in wrestling gear sometimes, I have had the surgery a few times. Sucks, but it is part of the game. Unfortunately I can't ever keep it because I am going into a professional Job line.is it just me or is everyone in North America an MMA fighter?

Rival is my choiceI used to hate headgear, but years of sparring takes a toll on the brain and the last thing I want is to sound like Evander Holyfield. Anything by Twins, Revgear, or Rival is solid. Pricey, but worth it.
