when I say fight I mean like kicking and punching and wrestling. Shoveling is not original, and its just a bitch. People who use shovels display a lack of skill and cannot be considered a worthy opponent.
Aikido is a defensive fight, like most of them. The objective of aikido is just to DQ your opponent or put him out of the dojo. Also, playing versus shovelers is cool, you raise your skills, trying to counter them.
