Yes, as the post says below my tooth was knoced out in training by my coach Santino. It was not hard enough to knock me out but hard enough to break my tooth in half. I am now sporting the Dan Henderson look, now i just need to get a few knocouts like him and i will be well on my way to the UFC. I will check back in and keep everyone updated.
Thank you mtx

Ive been teaching for over 5years now. I have had students who are interested in training for many different reasons. Self Defense, fitness, to compete, and any other of reasons. For all the different reasons, I enjoy teaching them and give them 100% of what I knowledge I have. Now the one thing that I REFUSE is to be a punk factory.
Ive noticed that as MMA grows, so does the mainstream exposure and sadly, so does the punk factor. Dont know what the punk factor is? Attitude over respect, trying…

I shouldnt be writing this because future opponents may think this is giving them some insight into fighting me, but I need to say it. I have a serious deficiency in my game when it comes fight time. I hesitate with using my stand up. I train all aspects of the game and in the room, Im very comfortable with boxing or kickboxing. In fact, I enjoy doing it and feel I can hold my own with anyone on the feet. Unfortunately, when it comes to the actual fight, I revert back to my grappling too much. N…

well my last fight went pretty fast. I took sat/sun off and was back in the gym on Monday. The first week was pretty laid back. I did cross fit twice and one bag workout, but after that, it was back to work. I trained at Erik Paulsons CSW, Millennia Jiu Jitsu, Rodrigo Mederios and my own gym(Bob Chaney Martial arts) and picked up my strength & Conditioning at CrossFitByOverLoad. I put in a solid 3 weeks. It was good because I was already in shape and had no injuries. The hardest part was get…

I arrived at the palace weighing 166lbs on wed. I had 10 pounds to cut and was for the most part I was feeling good. My stomach was in knots though. Not from anxiety, but from Potassium poisoning! Tuesday night I stupidly decided to over saturate my body with a potassium supplement. Cutting water weight depletes your body of Potassium and I thought by taking a large dose it would offset the suffering of the cut. Now, I usually dont deviate from my usual routine, but I took a gamble and paid for…

My next fight is a little under 2 weeks away. Im feeling really good and well prepared. Ive been training for this fight for 6 weeks already and truly feel the hard work will pay off. My last fight wasnt a real test and I think this next one will be how ever. My first opponent pulled out with an unspecified injury last week, which through me for a loop. my new opponent is a south paw(just found that out yesterday) and I really dont know what to expect. His record is not great(6-3), but that mean…

Now, Im sure Im not the first person to be thought of when it comes to diet. In fact, I admit, its not my strength. I hate it in fact. Its not fun and dieting makes me really crabby. Ive done a lot of different things in the past and had pretty good success until I turned 29. They say your metabolism slows down when you get older, but mine seemed to stop, take a nap and grab a burger. I still put the hours away at the gym and really push myself, but now I really have to monitor everything I do(s…

Im just about to leave to go train at my jiu jitsu instructor Rodrigo Medeiros gym in San Diego and figured I would touch on training in the gi for a moment. There seems to be a lot of debate about training with the gi or without. I started jiu jitsu when there were zero No gi tournaments and gi was the only option. When I got into fighting I found myself training with out the gi more and more. In fact, at the last place I was training it was so wrestling based, I never put my gi on.
After my n…

Getting ready for this next fight is taking alot of work. Until I get the video blog up and moving, I figured I would give some insight into what my training consists of. This varies, but Ill give a basic weekly schedule
Monday- Warm up and the sparring. Ive been doing 4x4min rounds of MMA with fairtex boxing gloves and training gear. Once that is done switch to MMA gloves and do 3xmin rounds of grappling. Finish off with 4x4min rounds on the heavy bag. Next up, crossfit. I go to crossfit by ov…

Like many other people I let the editors manipulate my thoughts during Gabe's TUF season. For me I couldn't understand how he could come so far and not be willing to go that extra inch. Without knowing, without meeting I judged and I can honestly say I was W R O N G.
A friend called me and she was like I need a huge favor, talk to one of my best friends who is a fighter and see if he would be a great client. She went on to tell me he was a loyal friend who essentially got the raw end of the dea…
