    My all time favorite, has to be the "shadow boxing" warm up. nothing like getting the hips and shoulders loose for striking when you are in a grappling comp.........

    I hate to see the other guy's hand go up!
    The reason is 99% of these guys don't have a clue what they are doing. It can be dangerous for your opponent and for you. You could snap their arm or snap your own neck. I've see a few beginners get hurt pretty bad before. It's funny cause they want to get a flying arm bar cause it looks cool, but have no concept of ANY guard pass.

    This was the case at my last comp over two years ago. Amateur mma which mean't no head shots. Anyway, after hitting me in the face 4 times, he finally got a warning from the ref. My opponent, the ref, the judges were all from the same gym.

    I haven't competed since...

    +1....+2 if I'm allowed. There's a video on here somewhere of a guy getting a beautiful old school into side control and the ref gave him no points because he said it was an "invisible guard." I would have been PISSED about not getting the 2 points for the pass and 3 points for side control.

    The guy reffing your match is watching the match right next to you

    Waiting around all damn day for your division to start

    Coaches flipping out and screaming at the refs
