"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

He should stay within his original style under Cuz. Those fundamentals with wisdom will be a problem for opponents. His mindset needs to shift.
Well. I'm a firm believer in review, review, review.
I wonder if he took notes or drew diagrams he could be rereading. Looking at old pictures and home movies. Visualising happy memories of lessons and the family life he had with Cuz
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Those same vids we watched can be his foundation. Those techniques made him world champ.

He has a mental roladex that the younger cats cant have. The body is amazing. If you push it it will overcompensate and get stronger.
Yes, I know. I experience it working manual labour. Its akin to sports. I was thinking of starting a thread here asking who works physically in their job all day every day but I don't know that many are even working in pandemic. Might be misconstrued. I'm just curious how people can do afterwork sports and have regular lovelife with a fulltime labour job.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

So before Tyson worked for Don King, I learned that he had wiped out all his fighters. It wasn't intentional, just how it happened. So perhaps this fueled Don's desire to make money off of him, then rob him in the end and make he wish he was dead. Don King was a gangster.

At 40:40 into this footage Holmes complained about Tyson throwing elbows, headbuts and hitting after the bell. So he said he didn't see a gentleman in there, he saw a beast. So if he wants to be a beast he's gonna have to go in there with a beast. At that time Holmes was saying he would "humble" Tyson, Holmes may have been one Don Kings men.
that's the movie on Tyson

What about The Toad?

Tyson says it killed his ego, or at least changed it fundamentally. He certainly seems more mellow and humble in interviews. I can’t help but wonder if this, plus age, has seriously softened his killer instinct.

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Dynamite:

That training HEAT.
so weird to have people stand around and watch you train without coaching or encouraging you
I enjoy watching this because I believe this is high skill and I admire it. I think he could continue to win fights just like in the past as his training was so thorough.
That is a good youtube channel to have these videos.

He's hot, and he didn't have fans and medias around him in these training sessions. If I was in his shoes I'd be limiting that sort of attention and not do any talking. Focus on the training that has to be done. Eat, sleep, live it.
