This friend is pretty bright but he doesn't follow MMA at all and thinks that Aikido is the be all, end all of hand to hand combat. Basically he thinks that no one is successful with Aikido in MMA because certain strikes in Aikido would be illegal in MMA. Like throat/groin strikes, etc.
We've spared before, I only used my Muai Thai (we were fighting on concrete) and I destroyed him. 2 mins into it, all the Aikido stances and moves where totally gone.
He still doesn't believe me though. So anyone out there can help me convince my friend that he's wasting his time in a big way?
Anyone with some serious advice?
