2/19/2008 - My old karate teacher
Posted in Unspecified

The one who turned into a jerk....I guess he decided to put his money where his mouth is and enter an amateur mma fight. It was a brief career and I speaking as someone who was truly traumatized by this man, couldn't be happier. I did a search on his opponent and found a clip of him fighting with both arms out flailing. Oh dear. I felt that the fight promoter, his long time friend, must have done him a real favor. And why not? Encourage him to keep his school and maintain a stable of fighters for his guys to beat.

 

And, the ever confident Shawn Terrance did not even promote the fight on his website. Imagine my thrill when I read that he lost. By what means did he lose?  VERBAL SUBMISSION!!  I've never even seen that as a method of losing! Gee, I wonder what his exact words were? "No more!"  "Uncle"...the possibilities are endless.

His story, I can't remember the exact words, but it's something to the effect of, "I hurt my knee in the first round. Let me tell you, it's really hard to fight with an injured knee. The ring doctor said that I should be back kicking in no time."

From this paraphrased statement, I conclude:
1) He's still using excuses. He got hit. Trying to make it sound passive doesn't fool anyone. Of course, if it weren't for his silly knee problem, he would have fought like a superstar.

2) For medical care, he's relying on the spur of the moment opinion of someone he saw for a few seconds, someone who is mainly there in case someone suffers a serious head injury.

 

Have fun teaching classes on one leg!
