Can you confirm: trying to find a sparring partner in a crowded gym is like cruising for straight guys - consider: furtive eye contact, hierarchy uncertainty, sweaty, tight clothing

We’d start off with exercise and then do rapid-fire sparring rounds once we were good and exhausted, so it was a bunch of tired, sweaty guys grabbing whoever was nearby in the knowledge we’d just grab someone else in three minutes, more of a circuit party really

I think due to the strain of fitting all those fights in our LA historic storefront they were kinda linear like fencing, though we’d also have more showpiece 1v1 at a time fights, so we got a sense of how to use space and distance
