Why did this happen

Obviously, we don’t want stuff like this to happen, but being a combat sport it occurs sometimes. • Whether it’s grappling, MMA or pure striking I’ve seen accidental cuts happen in all. But if memory serves correctly, this is the first time I’ve personally cut someone open like this. • In chatting to the guys and coaches it’s just that it hit the perfect spot and you can’t really do much about that. • It was such a light tap but the part of my foot that hit to the part of his eye / eyelid it made contact with will just split it. • Good placement for fights, not the greatest for training, but we learn either way 🙏 • Ideally we mitigate the risk by doing lighter contact, or no contact, however in these more fighter oriented open mats we do more contact is expected. • Thankfully it’s almost fully healed during the week and he was back training straight away ❤️ • I’ll be honest it’s a bit embarrassing to post this as I don’t like hurting anyone, especially my team mates. But big rig and I chatted about it and he was cool with me sharing so I know it’s for the best to share to help improve the game for everyone 🫶 • We live and we learn no matter what! • For anyone out there wanting to minimise the risk of this happening; Vaseline on the eyebrows/forehead before these kind of spars would be our main way. • As unfortunately most shinguards won’t cover the toes (and it’s weird if they do hahaha) • Remember this is a thinking man’s game 🧠 • Embrace that and it’ll be all gravy babyyyyyyyy • • • • . • #masculinity #explorepage #onlinecoach #businessgrowth #mma #onlinecoachadvice #fighttraining #fightnight #businessmentoring #millionairemindset #motivation #highvalueman #serveJesus #motivationalquotes #thefightgame #ufc#thefightbusiness #philosophy #business #Christianity #taekwondo #taekwondoheavyweight #martialarts #fight #fightlife #fightIQ #sparring #sparringtips #thinkingmansgame 🧠
