IS HE 30lbs. HEAVIER THAN YOU NOW AND TRYING TO MAKE WEIGHT?!
OR ARE YOU GOING TO FIGHT HIM EVEN THOUGH HE'LL BE 30lbs. HEAVIER... IF SO WHY ARE YOU TAKING THE FIGHT?!

why not take the fight? The way most pro fights work is you get your money and a % of your opponents money for them not making weight.
I'm pretty sure tall said in another thread that the fight is at heavy weight so that would explain the 30lb difference.

Yeah its Heavyweight. I did get a bunch of new ink including tiger stripes on my shoulders and a kanji meaning kempo. Im taking the fight because he is a brawler with a 1-0 record. He seems really out of shape. I watched him fight and he was so tired after winning at 1 min 30 sec that they helped him up too. As long as I dont get caught with a power punch then Ill be alright. As far as what Im doing now for training, im just swimming, stretching and meditating. Oh and tanning:). Right now I weigh 220.
The link to the promotion it will be under is www.mmcagewarriors.com
Any word on the result of this fight?

They dont call me silky for nothing. Guess I better not write about my gameplan in case the enemy is watching. Cant wait to post the vid. I would stop thinking about it except im getting 50 calls a day from everybody asking me about it. Im gonna nerd out on video games in between weigh ins and the fights. And then Ill get to it. And if you ask me, its about time.

Well I lost. They switched fighters on me at the last second. This guy was alot tougher. He took me down hard and pounded me into submission. It was like a dream, I didnt do what I wanted to and he handled me good. My cheek hurts like a bitch and my eye is swollen. I got some good pain pills and im gonna order a pizza. Peace

That sucks. Well, re-group and come back tougher. Next time I guess it would be best to train like your next fight is with the UFC champ.

Mad, mad props to you for taking a fight in such a high weight class and fighting a guy you weren't expecting to fight. I've got nothing but the utmost respect for you, man. Please don't get discouraged, yo. This was a learning experience, no more, no less, and will only make you a much better fighter if you maintain the right attitude. I wish you a speedy recovery.
