Which when do you do that?

You only do that when you're blocking things or, you know, maybe, you know, when you're sliding an arm under to get a choke or something like that.

You know, you have so much, so many feints and so many stance switches.

Definitely.

It's such a smart style, man.

I love watching you fight because it's like, it's so, you can see that the fighter, if they don't, and by the way, they're probably not used to training with somebody like you because there's not a lot of guys like you.
