    submission tournament this weekend

    whats up bros
    sorry i have not been posting like i used to but i have been training so hard i am tired at night and fall asleep. i used to get on here every night after my son went to sleep now i fall asleep with him.
    anyway
    fighting in a big tournament this saturday--have not competed since last october where i fought in super heavyweight and weighed in at 248lbs. but i told everyone here months ago i was going to transform and now i weighed 220lbs yesterday and am trying to weigh in at 215 and fight in heavyweight.(i will post in cycle results soon on my training and diet-- look for my transformation post)
    we have a new instructor(about 6 months now) who is a black belt under carlson gracie and he has taught me alot of things--he is unbelievable in his technique.
    anyway i will let you guys know how it went tommorow or sunday.

    SNAP! THEN LET THEM TAP! Good luck bro! I actually will be starting my official BJJ training and instructing tomorrow! I can't wait! I have knowledge that I've accumulated from many different sources, but now I will learn from someone and then in August start with a black belt! Can't wait!
    Good Luck TAPOUT!

    good luck

    We talked the other day - if I dont see you Saturday, then good luck. I think given the location it shouldnt be a problem. Cant wait to get back in the dojo and get my ass kicked for a few weeks while I get my "mojo" back.

    P.S. Your lighter now so you should be much quicker. No more sitting on people with your former fat-ass!

    Tapout,

    I think the christian singer "Carman" is friends with Carlson and Joyce. If memeory recalls me right, Marsalais (sp?) is his cousin. Marsalas is really hard to understand due to the brizilian accent! Good luck and keep us posted! Yea, 37 is old in the full contact martial arts arena when you have been doing it since you were 7!
