Hello everyone.
I had my first mma fight roughly a month ago. There is going to be another fight night sometime in August, and I was hoping to participate. However, my coach shut down his gym for the summer because it's a slow season for him and he can't make rent.
A few of my gym mates may possibly be training on their own, and I considered asking a few of my friends to form an ad-hoc camp of sorts and try to contact and set up a fight myself. I also train on my own every day, nothing that could constitute preparing for a fight, just trying to stay consistent.
I love fighting (MMA or not), and desperately want to fight again ASAP. However, I should probably focus on getting a job through the summer. So my question is:
Should I try to set up my own fight and train on my own, or take a layoff, just train by myself for fun, and work on getting a job?
Hmm... The answer seems a bit more obvious once it's written out
