my BJJ blog

The following are my thoughts and opinions, like it or not….
I dunno, I kinda went thru the whole thing not knowing what UFC 94 was titled.  Was there even a title?  Anyway, as with my other UFC thoughts I’ll avoid fight analysis etc like I’m sure is freely found online.
My sad observance is that there [...]

Just found this video, it claims to be BJ Penn’s first MMA match. Certainly could be BJ, but doesn’t show his face clearly enough. Anyway, he wins by RNC.

I’m a few days late in posting this, but yeah, I saw UFC 92 at a friend’s place.  This isn’t a “me too” post, I’m not going to do a fight by fight analysis or whatever like I’m sure tons of other blogs and people have.  Just my thoughts in one sentence:
” Too many [...]

Just watched UFC 91. I’m not going to critique the fights and give my opinions, etc… There are a lot of other blogs and websites that do that.
What I will say though is that I was happy with some of the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu that was shown – in particularly the omoplatas. These techniques [...]

I can’t believe how bad of a blogger I am…
I went to see the show live, on May 31, at Newark, NJ. I took some pix and and it’s almost ludicrous that I haven’t posted about them yet. At this point I don’t remember how most of the fights went and who the [...]

Found a great photo gallery of the recent IFL World Team Championship Finals on December 29.  Check it out here.  There’s a link in that same page to the complete gallery.  Thank you MMA Weekly!

Didn’t get to see the whole show…damned bus coming from Vermont just had to break down (see previous post)…
I don’t remember most of the fights that I did get to see.
It was funny how the polling of fans went about for who was going to win, Lidell or Ortiz.  It kept changing.  Kinda like in [...]

December 29, 2006. My first time to watch MMA live. Also my first time to the Mohegan Sun.
The fights were great, even the pre-show fight for alternate was awesome. The show was produced well. They had Miss Connecticut (or some other state) do the national anthem and had some [...]

It was a great week!!  I took a week off from work and had two weeks away from school.  Spent most of the time with my family.  A friend from California visited and I got to show her around the city.  I went to the 1st International Fight League World Team Championships in Mohegan Sun [...]

Finally get to see some pro MMA live!!  I can’t wait for MMA to get legal here in NY, It’d be awesome to get to watch it at Madison Square Garden or something.  All the other ticket types were sold out already, but that’s ok…I bought meself binoculars with a digital camera.  Hope it works [...]
