well Sam I think that the octagon plays right into Rampages style. I can see many slams and ground n pound happening. I think he would have a much better career if he went to the UFC. I also think he would beat Chuck again. Hey Sam I just looked at the thread that was from a while ago you linked to. How did the Muay Thai go? Are you still in it? I have been thinking about taking this as well.
It is fun, though I'm not very good and not that serious. I still go a few days a week in NY when I can make it at this gym: www.thewat.com I was at Fairtex in Bangkok for a couple of weeks in the fall, had a real blast there, and I would recommend it to anybody regardless of your level of experience: http://www.muaythaifairtex.com/fairtex-bangpleeyai.html (EDIT: fixed link) I enjoyed the training in Thailand much better - the instructors are much better and much more laid back, as are the students. here in the states you get the "million dollar baby" syndrome, where everybody's out to prove how committed and tough they are all the time. In Thailand there was no pretense like that. I'll post some pictures from the camp in a few days when I do another photo thread
thanks man I have been looking into the revolution dojo here in Houston. One of my favorite fighters Yves Edwards is an instructor there.
Damn. I hate to admit it, but The_Conquistidor got owned in the thread. I guess there is a first time for everything.
This is the first UFC match I have ever seen. Was that considered a good, exciting fight? I don't mean the match up but the fight itself. I thought it was kind of dull.
It was dull overall, but these are 2 big named guys, so this was a pay per view and video that people want to see. Its also cool to see how Liddell looks somewhat sloppy when he fights, but he always knocks fools out!
For anyone that is new to MMA and the UFC you need to check this guy out. This is a highlight video of my favorite fighter Georges St. Pierre. http://media.vidilife.com/video/2005/12/6/126067/193218.wmv
Please, Conquistadork gets owned in damn near every thread. He is currently receiving an Incomplete grade in every thread he hasn't already failed.
