Damn, that's impressive! Any grappling experience before that? Probably a wrestler in school weren't you? Yeah,I compete from time to time, not very often. Been a long time since I have been in a grappling tournament and yeah, they take allot out of you. Grappling is the most exhauting thing I think one can do. Oh, ans I've been helping a buddy of mine with a tourney coming up, he has a very good chance of winning it and getting into naga.

I wrestled when I was in school, other than that no grappling experience, just what I've taught myself using online instructional videos.

Very eclectic guy.

Do you take strange ventures out in the middle of no where or try sailing a boat into the ocean after reading a few books with one lesson too?

Horrible loss to MMA, very interesting guy.

I'd like to do that sort of thing, Sadly I'm too poor to be able to go off and do that stuff whenever I want, I'm more worried about just finding work right now.

Yeah man, same here. Lost my job last friday. Well, I didn't lose it, I still work there technically, it's just there is no work to be done. People are afraid to spend money in this economy, and the working guys are getting hit first.

Thank God for forums and their cheap entertainment.

yup, I got laid off a few months back, there is no work to be found here at all, can't even get on at a fast food place.

Yeah, I know that area, I did cable internet installation work in that area. Lived in Medford and our area was from Ashland to just north of Grants Pass. That was back in 02, and I met allot of out of work people then.

Grants Pass has gone so far downhill over the last several years, it used to be a nice place to live, thinking about relocating.

I can do the Sanjuro thing, I'll throw a stick in the air and whichever way it points I go.

Might want to change that up, you can end up in the ocean, or worse, Utah that way.

 

[dkwrtw]

still I really dont' like to plan ahead too much, I'd rather leave everything to random chance, I shall obey the will of the Stick, wherever it sends me.

 

[SammyStephens]

Fair enough, but if you end up in Salt Lake city, don't say I didn't warn yuh!!

 

[dkwrtw]

it's a risk I'm willing to take.

 

[SammyStephens]

You have balls, I'll give you that.

BTW, is that Bisping in your AV?

 

[dkwrtw]

lol, yeah it's him photoshopped onto Count Von Count, someone made it before the Leben fight, I thought it was pretty funny so I made it my Av.

LOL Dana still tries to call Anderson Silva P4P best!


News - Dana White: Anderson Silva still number one P4P | MMAFighting.com


As dominant as Georges St-Pierre was against BJ Penn at UFC 94, UFC president Dana White still considers Anderson Silva the number one pound-for-pound fighter in the world.

"No I still wouldn't call [St-Pierre] pound-for-pound best in the world, but I'd say he's number two, " White said Saturday after the fights.

St-Pierre (18-2) and Silva (23-4) are the two UFC fighters most debated in pound-for-pound rankings discussions.

Outside of a disqualification loss due to an illegal kick, Silva has been undefeated for almost four years. At UFC 97 on April 18, Silva will look to set the record for the most consecutive UFC wins with nine.

"Anderson has been annihilating everybody for a long time," White said. "Georges has some work to do now. [If] Georges takes out Thiago Alves, he's on his way."

St-Pierre's next title defense at a date to be determined will be against the American Top Team fighter Alves, who earned his number one contender status with victories over Matt Hughes and Josh Koscheck.
