Hey Everyone...

My baby bro is competing tomorrow (Saturday October 20) in a MMA (Mixed Martial Arts) tournament. Thats the stuff you see on UFC Fights.

This looks to be a tough one. I'm a little nervous as he is my baby brother.

The following Saturday, my other brother has a title fight in South Dakota against a guy thats ranked nationally.

Both my brothers are great fighters, but a little bit of extra luck can't hurt.....Can everyone send a little bit of luck my way?

Good Luck to both................


In my opinion it's best to be associated with "sanctioned" businesses. I fought a few fights in my younger days with some of these "fly by night" backyard type associations. Their refs and doctors were something to be desired.
Plus, I only made $220 for my first fight.

Just some friendly advice..........


Chris

Thank Chris. All the fights my brothers are in are sanctioned fights and have pro contracts. They have to get blood work done, physicals and all kinds of jazz.

My youngest brother didn't get to fight last night at all. Very disappointing.

His opponent drove in from Colorado, weighed in, checked in and all that. My brother went in, did his weigh in and was told that his opponent wasn't going to fight. The kid "claims" he injured his ankle. I only say "claims" because a) he drove in and did all his checking in, signing off to fight and b) he was at the event all night walking around, even JUMPING up and down during an exciting fight. JUMPING? On an injured ankle???

LOL, since weigh-ins were 3 hrs before the fight, I doubt it. Unless he was jumping up and down at a fight the night before. rolling on the floor laughing Jumping up and down on an injured ankle....LOL

Off subject, but hey Ambrose, where's my trivia question? BTW I haven't seen the movie yet. Going to tonight (Was sick so had to skip it Friday); will email you tonight and let you know though!

The trivia question was in the subject line, DA!

Okay, I'll give you another line from the song in question: "You know I would not lie."

And I thought you didn't answer because I'd stumped you!applause

All right y'all...I'm about to head out for South Dakota for my brother's title fight. I'm nervous and I'm never nervous for this brother's fights. He's very good (undefeated), but as I've said....This guy he's fighting doesn't hold the title for nothing.
