Check out MMARated.com. I was featured on the main page and have a spiffy interview up in the “features” section.

Anyway, have fun with that.

The UFC featured me in a pre-fight article on their webpage. Click to link directly:

And I wouldn’t live up to my nickname if I didn’t say that the article contains some ear stinging passages. Maybe I’ll call him back and see if I can’t get a few sentences checked… hahaha.

Honestly, much of what we discussed is paraphrased in the article with some artistic license being used for spice. No harm no foul though. I’m glad the piece is up. Special attention to a couple of corrections…

“I don’t consider myself a ‘grammar-titian’ or anything like that,” he says. “But if you don’t want to use the language correctly, don’t.”

There are 2 mistakes here. The first is the word “grammatician” which is misquoted. The second is that he left off the rest of the quote which totally inverts the meaning of the sentence. It should read, “If you don’t want to use the language correctly, don’t… But don’t expect me not to poke fun at you.”

It wasn’t a permissive or dismissive sentence as it appears in the text.

Also, Renzo (not Royce) Gracie was the one who said the bit about the best fighter winning if God didn’t interfere. I believe it was at the end of “The Smashing Machine” documentary where they did a piece on Renzo.

Anyway, thanks for the exposure and the article Chuck, I appreciate being cast in a good light.
