MMA May - The Flying Dutchman

Thanks jmt, I'm glad to be back :blush:

Well since I've been gone my back problems have gotten much better and I should be in the gym within the month, I'm trying to set up some training with Cody McKenzie since he's training at the Gracie gym in Stockton now, seeing if he'll come out to pleasant hill. I did do a class with Gil Melendez where we just worked technique since im not 100 percent but that was a trip, when you hear Nate shouting out to Gil about how he's the best it ain't bs, the guy's amazing.

As for the other stuff I'm about to be up for a recording contract, which is really what I'm focusing on right now. I'm working with a lady who's coached Reba McEntire and she's got alot of faith in me. So hopefully you guys will see me in a cage and on a stage :p

Also ive got two tickets for UFC 146, my fiancé may not be able to go because of work. I'll find out tonight if she can or not but if she can't would any of you boys want to buy a ticket and join me in Vegas?
 
Yea we sorely missed you, JW. Glad to hear everything is going well for you, brother
 
Thanks bud, I just wish I hadnt had to spend the time away. I'm pissed I missed the beginning of the fight card predicting, but I'll make up for it in the end. Glad I didnt miss Sapp vs Puds, that shit's brilliant.
 
Yes.

Speaking of Douchey Guys, Nick Diaz no-showed his BJJ Superfight against Braulio Estima. They put this on PPV and Nick was supposed to donate his entire purse to St. Jude's Children's Hospital. Estima flew in all the way from the UK for nothing.
 
Why am I not surprised Diaz disrespected one of the nicest, most respectful people in the Jiu Jitsu universe? Guys a fucking loser.
 
I'm not so mad about the disrespecting Estima as much as I am upset he bailed on his the St. Jude's Children's Hospital. That's fucking shameful.
 
The money Diaz was scheduled to make will still likely go to the hospital. I may be mistaken, but wasn't this entire event for charity?

Bob Sapp lost to Pudzianowski yesterday and his career MMA record is officially under .500.

I don't know what's more amazing, the fact that Sapp hasn't retired, or that promotions are still booking him for main event fights.
 
Here's Nick's side of things from his Facebook. If this is true, it at least makes sense as to why he bailed.

Promoter fails to donate the money to charity as agreed. (shady) Promoter changes rules for weigh ins to accommodate fellow Brazilian
Match ain't happening
 
Funny because Nick agreed to a 185 pound catch weight after Estima said he may not make 180. With 185 set in stone, Estima still managed to weigh in at 180
 
I hope Nick is telling the truth. All I want if for the promised money to get to the charity it was said it was going to in the first place. I could care less about the fight.
 
Also, I think Cesar Gracie has confirmed that Facebook page is a fake. Not positive, though
 
Come to think of it, it probably is a fake. I don't think Nick or Nate could write coherent looking sentences, and each post would probably be signed by one of these...

If that's right then that helps a bit but still sucks for all the people there and Estima. The guy had to come all the way from London and cut the weight and did everything right. The least he could have done is apologized to his opponent.
 
So did you boys see the first 146 prime time? If so what did you think about it?

For me I lost a bit of respect for Nog, I mean you can't really say I guy isn't very good if he knocks you out and submits you. I've always been a big fan of Nog's but that one kinda set him back for me.
