    Did you guys hear about what happened to the Pitbull? He tested positive for a banned substance following his post fight test. He has been suspended for a yr i think....

    He tested positive for spironolactone, a direutic used to cut weight and some say can be used to mask steroids ....?

    That's old news. He's been suspended for 8 months because of the diuretic.

    That's some A-level talent there! Truly world class.

    What is the ratio between instructors and members?

    It depends on how many people show up to class ........ cause some days it's fvcking packed and others it's a lot smaller ........ but I would say for BJJ anywhere from 12:1 all the way down to 5:1, depending on the class size of course.

    time for a lil update

    I'm loving BJJ class ... progressing nicely, starting to hang with the greens, and move well for a big guy (from what I'm told)

    I was put up against a black belt last week ... talk about the most humbling experience ever ... I was twice his size, literally, and couldn't do anything ... he had total control over me ... I ended up getting armbar'd a shitload of times ... he finally finished me off with a gogoplata

    It was a great learning experience

    I'm still going strong and loving every minute of it.

    I was sparring the other day during muay thai class ... and took an inside leg kick straight to the junk.

    Needless to say ... I now wear a cup to class.

    Just a lil update ...

    I got my green belt last night. It was nice and appreciated. I felt I deserved it as did Mr.Liborio and the rest of the staff.

    Still going strong in BJJ and Muay Thai ... gonna start mixing in No-Gi and MMA classes.

    Congrats on the belt. Do you guys have to stripe your white belts before getting your green, or just go from white to green?
