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.

A couple of stories…

Here are a couple of links to some interviews that came out in the media. They both turned out to be more of a human interest piece than a pre-fight interview as you may be used to reading. They asked about that stuff that happened a while back so I told the story again. I guess I wasn’t expecting the interest in that or those questions but I hope it translates into people being interested in my fights and possibly in me as a person. I’m lucky enough to have a generally pleasing fighting style win or lose so if they tune in after reading these things that will be rewarding. Here are the links:

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…
