Why Fighters Don't Wear Makeup

Last night at class we worked on clinch, particularly different types of knees you can use. This resulted in me developing giant bruises covering my knees from practicing on the punching bag. So, there's my wound for the week.

Then, my instructor and I sparred at it for a while. Because clinch involves a lot of grabbing the other person's head and crushing it up against your body, and because my instructor was wearing a white shirt, he ended up looking like he had just come out of a coal mine. I think I'm probably the only person ever who wears that much eye makeup to martial arts class.
