Im a HUGE fan of Mixed Martial Arts. I'll watch any MMA event on television regardless of the venue, and I order every single UFC event, and occasionally Ill drop some $ on another venue provided the card is good.

I have the deepest respect for anyone that fights for what they believe in, from the simplest matters to the most complex. It's pretty easy to just sit back and watch shit unfold while you go about your daily activities, but it takes a set of balls to get up and do something productive about it.

I won't be back there for a long long time unfortunately. Keep me posted on where you're fights are, there's always a chance I'll be in the area with the amount I travel. You just gotta go back to pre-2.0 Glenn so you can reck-bomb fools.
Gotta take the wins with the losses, it's a part of the profession and like you said, you can learn 10x more from a loss than a win. You've the best at whatever you put your mind to since I've known you and this is going to be no different.
keep your head up, think about the next level and never once doubt that anybody who enters a cage with the intent of hurting or being hurt is truly a man. you fought with honor and lost honorably. never shame yourself for that. you are now and will forever be a cage fighter. i'm proud of you and proud to call you a friend.
thats awesome! im trying my hardest to loose 20lbs, you got any suggestions? im 6'1'' @ 200-205 right now...im at Wellington Muay Thai on the weekends, but im really trying to slim down and move up in Muay Thai and then join ya on the mat. Are tickets available yet for your fight at AC?..i want to get the Tix ASAP
I demand semi decent quality video footage of your fight next weekend. I don't mean like cell phone shit, I'm talking make an Asian friend and have him borrow his dad's $900 camcorder and sit in the front row.
And I also demand you submit at least one person via can opener.
I fought at 170 for both my fights. I want to try to cut down to 155-165 for my next fight whenever the heck I decide to get my ass back into gear. Finally finding some time to get back into Muay Thai.
I'm trying to get back into training. Been kickboxing here and there when I can, never have time to get to Josh's, Gotta stop in one day and talk to him. I want to fight again, but I just got diagnosed with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome so I have to take it easy with training and stuff for now which sucks. Was looking forward to getting back onto the mat. Let me know if you are gonna fight cause I wanna see you kick someones ass.
Dude, Ghost Love Score is like my favorite song of all time. Nightwish is amazing. Joji and I saw them at Nokia in Times Square last October with the new lead singer. It was amazing but Tarja was definately better.
Doing alright bro (all things considered). I start training in a couple months once I get my new tattoo finished. Can't really roll with fresh ink =S. Plus, I'm going through a divorce so money is a little tight atm.
Hey Glenn! Thought I'd drop you a line and see how you're doing and how the training is going. BTW, I need to talk to you about an opportunity that I think you'd be interested in. Drop me a PM and I'll give you the details.
