TV and a town 10 hours away

Monday, November 16th, 2009

Haven’t kept up too much lately, just been busy.Sorry for the lack of updates.

I’ve been invited to participate in a round table discussion about the last UFC (105) today. It will be televised and more than likely aired this evening so that is a great opportunity for exposure and networking. If you are in the U.S. it’s unlikely you will see it but check out Premiere Combate if you are here in Brazil.

Also, plans are steadily moving forward for our move back “home” to a smaller town about 10 hours away by car. We have been considering the move for awhile and it seems the time is finally here. We are tentatively moving mid-December. There are some great untapped opportunities in my town which make starting something there an attractive proposition. We’ll see how things go but it sounds pretty promising.

That’s all for now.  Take care all and have a great time training…

Projects

Monday, October 12th, 2009

I’ve been kicking around an idea for a weekly technique video or maybe a DVD or both. I’m not sure exactly how to do it though. Better computer guys than myself may be able to assist me and I will definitely consult them. I guess I’m just throwing that out there. I haven’t really seen that sort of feature on anyone’s website. If you have, point me to it so I can see how it’s done.

Other than that, I’m waiting for word on fight opportunities. I hope something comes along soon so I don’t have to spend another 6 months waiting to fight again…

I’ll keep you updated.

Training, cutting, weighing, eating, fighting, eating.

Monday, September 14th, 2009

That’s my schedule.

The practices were hard and the sacrifices were made. Now it’s time for a little more work before the fun. I need to cut a bit more weight tonight during a workout and maybe a little extra for a pre-cut so I can drink some water before bedtime. It’s no fun trying to sleep dehydrated. Then it’s just a matter of waking up for the real weight cut tomorrow then sitting around waiting until I can get weighed-in and EAT. I have been dreaming about all the different things I want a bite of after weigh-ins.

Get ready for the show. This is going to be a great card. There are lots of important fights on it even if they aren’t the biggest names. The fights being important to the fighters makes the fights better than when the fights are just between popular fighters. There is a lot on the line for a bunch of guys on this card. I’m guessing this card will be one to remember.

Flight on Friday

Wednesday, September 9th, 2009

Friday’s are fantastic flying days. Flying on Friday’s is funner cause flights are fuller. Flying with friend’s on full flights feels funner yet.

I can’t wait to go.

Attention professional keyboarders:

Friday, September 4th, 2009

As I was keyboarding on the UG (a mixed martial arts forum) I joined a discussion about the fights that took place in Vancouver, B.C. on August 24-25, 2007 under the now defunct Bodog banner. I was enlightened to the fact that these fights, which I thought to be lost, have been airing on certain obscure channels in the US and Canada.

I would like to issue a reward based challenge here, as I did in that discussion, to all you keyboard guru’s and hackers who have connections or skills or both. I would like a copy of the event (both days). If you can’t find the entire event then at least the day I fought (August 24th). If you can’t do that then at least my fight against Ray Steinbeiss. Ray doesn’t have it either, at least he didn’t last time I talked to him. Obviously you will get more from me if you give more…

Whoever hooks it up will get some neat-o stuff. Probably some UFC stuff and some free gear. If money is your deal, something can be arranged.

Let me know keyboarders…
