To be more confident? I mean, you just... You need reassurance from people you trust. You know what I mean? Like the guy, the blue belt at your gym that's hitting on the females in the gym, telling them they're doing a great job. You know what I mean? It's not going to be that. You're not going to have that much reassurance.

But obviously, the more you respect someone's ability to teach or their ability to perform when they tell you you're doing something right. That's going to add a hell of a lot of confidence. I think it's always better to be overconfident than underconfident in any sort of combat area. In any sport, I would say. More fights have been lost due to underconfidence than overconfidence.

You think that's the case?

You think that's the case?

But it is still, a lot of the time it's like, so obviously there are some, like there are some lucky shots, but like, like say Masvidal, He knew that if he applied pressure, he knew the way Askren would lean. So he knew sort of his habits, right? I mean, that was definitely a mistake on Askren's end. You know what I mean? He was a great approach by Masvidal as well.

You know, like he's sprinting towards him at a period of the fight where usually it's pretty tame. Usually a feeling out process, usually a hand touch. So he's breaking sort of the rhythm there. So... I think there was a bit of planning in what looked like a brilliant, accidental, lucky strike. But it was well placed. Yeah, I think that was calculated. They knew what Askren's reaction would be.

Oh, I mean, you know what? Like it's sort of based on what competition is popular at the time. So what I mean by that is ADCC would allow heel hooks. And there was a guy that called, who's my power Harris, who was notorious for throwing on heel hooks and not letting go when people tap and just breaking their legs.

So that created an urgency, even in myself when I thought I might be in his weight division to now learn leg locks, because obviously you don't want to be, you don't want to lose. You don't want to be embarrassed by having a sort of a hole in your game there. And in that particular circumstance, I was quite concerned he was going to just get it, rip it, and not let go.

He got banned from the UFC, I'm pretty sure, for doing that. This guy's notorious for just being a caveman and just ripping shit. But jujitsu is sort of like you're looking for holes in the sport to take advantage of it. So once I started training that heel hook game, then a tournament appeared called EBI, which became like sort of a,
