Im just gonna come out and say it bro. I mean no disrespect, but the level of MMA in the U.S. in much higher than in the U.K.
Anyway, CA is the most expensive state in the U.S. The cost of living here in outrageous! let alone in West LA where Legends is located.
If you want to come here and get the best training possible, Xtreme Couture is the place to be. But if you just wanna hang out and learn a little, have fun, meet new and possibly famous people, Legends is great.
99% of the people there dont want a career in MMA. Which is cool, but just know what youre getting into.
Best of Luck, hit me up if you have somemore questions.

Bad time to move to vegas unless you already have a good job already lined up. unemployment is sky-rocketing here. Most companies, especially the casinos are laying people off left and right.

lol...
Best of Luck bro... Youre gonna need a VISA to work as well. Which might be an issue $ wise.
If try to get everything by the book. And do yourself a big favor and look for a job before coming.

This man knows what he is talking about!
Cali is expensive as shit!
Wand Fight Team in Vegas would absolutely be my choice for training! Xtreme Couture would be awesome however you would not be a member of the "Pro" team and probably not get to spar or train in the "Pro" class. You never know though, check it out.
I am contemplating moving to Cali or Vegas actually. Not sure Wanderlei has his gym completely open yet? He and others are training there now.
Minotauro, Forrest were training with Wanderlei the other night in preperation for their fights on Dec 27th. Wand's gym has a hyperbaric room for simulating training in high altitudes, the place is ****ing top notch. haha
Here are some pics from the training session

^^^Great Pics! Damn Wandy is looking a little grey....I hope he pulls it out on Saturday. Griffen looks damn near as big as Wand. I heard that he cuts between 20 and 30!
