Has anybody noticed that Anthony Rojas’ throws look so weak, but he manages these really long combos? I think it’s cool.

Yikes, imagine if he threw a power throw and let it sleep. Tries to throw it down before he goes to bed, hangs it from something, wakes up in the morning and it’s still sleeping, he gets up, binds it, and resumes practice. 😃
