Today, I entered my first professional fight as a mixed martial artist. It's been my dream to become a UFC champion one day. All I do is train and watch UFC fights all day. I was out cold in a matter of seconds. FML

You need to do a training montage. Perhaps "Eye of the tiger" would be a good song choice to go with it.

Practice more instead of watching UFC, you'll get better. :)

Don't worry man. It takes a lot of guts to actually go up against an opponent and hang in there for however long the round lasts.

Do the opposite of what 15 tells you

Actually, there's merit in 15's comment. If OP is only doing hard training or training too much, he'll only wear himself out or possibly damage his body.

Train softer does not mean train less. It means train more sensitively. The best and most deadly martial arts emphasize sensitivity and relaxation. If you are tense you must first relax before you can respond. Train softer and you will become more effective.

Calyx - Two words aren't enough to convey that sentiment efficiently. Should've said all that the first time.

Fighters take less brain damage in MMA than say boxing.

That's like saying fire isn't as hot as the sun. It'll still burn you.

Michael Jordan didn't make the basketball team in high school...so moral of the story, work hard and you can conquer :)

Nice thought, but he didn't make the varsity as a sophomore. He was a star his junior and senior years. Failing to make a basketball team is merely humiliating, but failing at UFC means traumatic brain injuries that may end up causing permanent dain bramage.

OP don't sweat a loss on the first fight. Think of it as gaining experience to be able to last a couple minutes in the next fight.

Hey, at least you're not dead or paralyzed -- you're just 0-1. Train more seriously and turn off the TV, or next time, you might not be so lucky.

He said that's all he's been doing. You can't train all day everyday. Plus, it's good to mix in studying how the professionals do it to get better.

25 Or OP could get up start training more and end up living the dream

Lie about your weight, so you can beat the shit out of mini-people.

Bribery and stealth. Wearing 5 or 6 layers of Spanx will also help the deception.
