i didn't say alot of people hate rolling with me, i said some like to some hate to. like i said i am a little unorthodox. i don't think i have a bad attitude at all, the skinny and thick individuals i refer to are guys my weight of varying builds... and i am more talking about snake pits than just rolling, if i get paired up with a guy smaller than me i will generally just let him work for what he wants to and give him different defensive looks... i'm not going to learn anything from bullying 120 lb kid, however i love rolling with bigger guys because its a greater challenge, it does challenge me to use better technique because its a lot harder to move that extra weight. but like i said i am not ruling out the possibility that i might be looking at things the wrong way, we all make mistakes.
the guys who hate to roll with me don't hate me, alot of us hang out outside of class, its more the ah shit i'm gonna get worked kinda hate... admittedly no one is very advanced at my gym so we are all kinda learning together, i have yet to roll against a real competitor.
