I don't study any real form of martial arts. A buddy of mine teaches me some things from a couple different styles and I like to try'n mix'em into my self-titled "Chimera" fighting style. Basically,I just do whatever I can to take them down.

...So,yeah,I'm a crappy fighter who relies on his size. Cool

Being short is an advantage in Ninjitsu, where the key is being lower than your opponent.

I'm more of a grappler myself,mainly because I have no real muscles. But I've been told my kicks are somewhat average.

Again, being muscular is no real advantage in Ninjitsu. Bodyweight and positioning re aimportant.

I'm too big for Ninjitsu. I'm about 6'4".

Body size doesn't mean much in martial arts does it? Isn't really about balance and center of gravity?

I don't do martial arts but I do box. I'm average but I do teach my friends the basics of boxing (in highschool we were the nerds).

One of my friends was about to be bullied and he broke the guys nose! Oh that made my day!

I also kind of know brazilizn ju-jitsu and greco-roman wrestling because one of my friends is in the school team and the other is 1st Dan in ju-jitsu and we spar and teach each other techniques.

Out of my entire group of friends I'm the only striker. and the least musceled so I learned pressure points on the body and memorized where all the organs are to take advantage of that.

One of my friends told me it looked like a new kind of martial art cause I don't move like a boxer anymore. . . whatever that means.

Heh, I used to have a junior black belt in Taekwondo, but I've stopped for more than 3years already. It just felt so boring and repetitive, so I quit.

I'm now interested in learning boxing, after playing Tekken and getting my ass handed to me by all the pro Steve Foxes out there...
