Joey Marmorato's ARMA Prize Playing highlights (2011) Joey played a new record of 93 total bouts with 72 wins in a mere 41 minutes with 21 total losses (with about 7 of them draws).
@halfassedfart That is simply not the case. You don't have to hit with full-force impact to fight at full intensity. While some of these bouts are not at full intensity, that is largely for energy conservation. If the fighter can control the fight and hit the opponent for a clean, killing hit without exerting full energy, then that is what he should do. If you can't see the speed, agility, and power in many of these fights, I don't know what to tell you. Find an ARMA group. You'll understand.
@halfassedfart well not exactly. you DO hit hard and swing fast. but no more than would be necessary to truly cut organic flesh (you need not swing too hard). as the guy who got knocked on my ass at 4:15, and almost had a pinky severed by the man in question before, I can tell that he DOES hit very hard, but he pulls his blows at just the right time. Also of note, he had broken two fingers by the time this prizing was over. Totally didnt notice till the end either. Thats really about it.
Judging from what looks to be a Brian Hunt sparring helm, and the fact that Aaron (the only other ARMAteer who I know has one) is judging, I'd say... Jeremiah?

@IaMaPh1991 That means you aren't going at anything close to full intensity. :/
