Apparently, you've never met and chatted with him at the gym. :tongue:
I was actually fortunate enough to talk to him in the past.

Well, again, I'd refer you to the other thread that I listed about in post 20, and have a look, and especially in post 33 of that thread. :wink: His interviews all sound like he's a spiritual Zen master, but then at the gym, to call his antics "fratboy insecurity" would be an understatement. My trainer, who is the sweetest, most honest guy that I've even met, and never says anything bad about anyone, even told me, "He's, well, he's, uh, 'interesting', I'll say that for him. He's probably just someone that I'd steer you clear of is all." He is a master at martial arts, but it's still weird to try to get another trainer to spar with you, when you're BOTH in the MIDDLE OF SESSIONS, telling his client, "No, no, you gotta watch this, watch this, I'll take 'em, watch, ok, c'mon, let's go...", while the client is standing there, looking lost, and really just wanting to work out.I was actually fortunate enough to talk to him in the past.

I really have nothing against the guy, and actually think he's sexy as hell, but he's much loonier in person than the always soulful interviews that I've encountered about him, and definitely not above certain displays of "fratboy" behaviour, is all that I'm saying.
As I said, I'm really not trying to slam the guy. But I'm instead offering my first-hand experience to counter what rainbow is calling fake. madboy said that Marcus seemedIsn't all that "fratboy behavior" just an effort to overcome insecurity? Just shows that you can have damn near everything everyone else wants and still have your own insecurities. I think we're all al little loony inside our own heads! Cut him some slack! How long did it take you to grow into the person you are? Are you finished? If not, then allow others to hit bumps along their paths too, without your judgement, or worse, second-hand judgement!
, rainbow then goes intomadboy75 said:... a bit cocky...
Again, I'm not bashing Marcus, I'm just supporting that what madboy is reporting, doesn't sound at all fake to me, based on what I've personally encountered. What I'm saying is that rainbow's version of Marcus seems a bit pedestal-like, when in fact Marcus does seem a bit insecure, and is in fact human and struggling along just like the rest of us mere mortals. Your reading a claim of perfection, on my part, into any of what I wrote, is an erroneous extrapolation.rainbowpolaris said:Do you have any proof that he actually said those things? Marcus Patrick always came off as a down to earth type of person. I just can't see him bragging like some insecure frat boy with something to prove. This sounds fake.
