Thanks for those Joe. I'll be viewing them as soon as my Net speed goes back up again. (I have fairly fast Net speed for a few days a month due to my plan).



BTW: The question of possible long term damage is still something I'm iffy on. Does getting choked out a lot do long term damage? And I mean long term damage as opposed to waking up with my eyebrows shaved?
This is one of the more common arguments that occurs in the sport: Just how bad is it?

Most people will tell you it's not really that bad, it's the reduction of blood to the brain (not a complete cut off obviously) which causes unconsciousness. If held for a long time it could have adverse reactions but that length of time is dependent of many factors of course.

Compared to getting KO'ed it's quite harmless!
