Anyone recently been in mixed martial arts competition?

I have been taking mixed martial arts for about a month and was thinking about competing in the future, when I feel I'm ready. Can anyone tell me their experience in their first competition, what happened, and what should I expect? I'm an avid follower of UFC and Pride fighting.

Anyone recently been in mixed martial arts competition?
People who fight in the UFC are experienced and often feel each other out.





In the local shows most don't have any experience. They just go out there and flurry as hard as they can. Be prepaierd for someone to rush you and train for that.





That's what happened in my first fight. I lost. Not because he was better but because he took me by suprise.





Take your time. Train until your trainner says you are ready. 6-12 months.





Start in ameture shows. You can get experience there and it won't count on your record. I went to pro's straight and now wish I had started in ameture.
