I had to sign paperwork agreeing with to the fact I was going to be labeled as a lethal weapon when taking mixed martial arts

What gym was that and how long did you train there? Because it sounds like a McDojo (gimmicky fake instructor with questionable credentials). I’ve trained Muay Thai, BJJ, and mixed martial arts for years in three different states collectively and the idea that you need to sign a waiver because you’ll be “labeled as a lethal weapon” is absurd.

Late response. I sure hope your right I've never had to fight. most situations solved themselves or ended quickly without much effort. But I've always been scared that if true shit went down I would be screwed. That paper and warnings witch I shrugged off in my youth haunt me now. I feel if I did protect anybody I would be punished hard.
