Melvin Guillard said he has alot of other sparring partners come into the camp, not just guys that train there, seems they don't limit themselves to guys who are just in the team as such but have a broader, more inclusive, less diversive and xenophobic type attitude of other gyms.
It's not my place to share as nothing is official, but a very prominent (white) fighter everyone on here loves to hate came and trained with the Blackzillions for a few weeks. We'll see what happens. <img src="/images/phone/apple.png" alt="Phone Post" border="0" style="vertical-align:middle;"/>

Meet the Blackzilians: A Family of World Class Coaches and Fighters

After spending time in Boca Raton, Florida, with the Blackzilians, it’s clear that they’re much more than a team.


Led by head coach Mike Van Arsdale, the Blackzilians are a family of world class fighters.


With world champion kickboxer Tyrone Spong, MMA’s Anthony Johnson, Rashad Evans, Melvin Guillard, Michael Johnson, Jorge Santiago, JZ Cavalcante, Abel Trujillo, and Roy Jones Jr., to merely name a few, there’s no lack of talent and determination in the group.


Van Arsdale keeps training structured and professional in order for each fighter to achieve his full potential.


Dutch striking coach Henri Hooft leads the way in developing that aspect of their skill sets; I only had to attend one sparring practice to realize how knowledgeable he truly is.


Hooft’s input to each fighter is received with full attention and it quickly shows during practice and one-on-ones.


Van Arsdale, Hooft, and the fighters are in the midst of preparing for an extremely busy month to kick off their 2012 campaign.


January features Anthony Johnson making his middleweight debut against Vitor Belfort at UFC 142, Guillard headlining UFC on FX 1, Spong facing Melvin Manhoef in kickboxing and Evans along with Michael Johnson round out the month at UFC on Fox 2 Jan. 28.


In preparation for those bouts, the atmosphere in training is serious, and with a full lineup of fights slated within weeks of one another, each fighter is growing and vastly improving his game.

In addition to Van Arsdale and Hooft, jiu-jitsu professor Flavius Silva leads the way and Marcus Silva works with the gentlemen to round out their skill sets with his judo expertise.


There's no doubt that each man was meant to be a professional fighter.  There's a near perfect balance of the disciplines needed to be a world champion.


No one fighter holds himself higher than another, and each professional is dedicated to the overall success of his teammates.


While the goal is to grow and evolve as fighters, everyone has fun and works together for the greater good of the Blackzilian family.


Glenn Robinson, president of Authentic Sports Management, ensures that all of the fighters' needs are met; he’s a true professional in every sense of the word.


Overall, the Blackzilians are a tremendous group of fighters and coaches who are primed for a dynamic year in 2012.


Stay tuned for the team profile feature that is set for publishing on the week of Dec. 26.

Brock trying to fool the world, meanwhile training harder than ever to come back better than ever before.

Overeem, Cain, and maybe JDS are still Bad matchups for Brock Lesnar. Their all young hungry lions.

Da Ghost - Or is that not allowed?

Seems to be more than just a team name so far... Phone Post

My brother trains with them.


He's extremely white. Phone Post

I made a thread a month ago that listed all their fighters.

I got the list from the gym owner so I'm guessing it was accurate... Phone Post

TanPour - The Whitemericans Phone Post

That would actually be pretty funny for a camp that tranes farm boy strength...


I chuckled at both. Phone Post

I apologize. I was being sarcastic about Lesnar because Calo was being Calo.

Brock is retired. He never came to imperial. Sorry about that. Phone Post

I was told a month ago that "that" fighter suppose to be official. Phone Post

Can you imagine Brock sparring on a daily basis with Spong? So much for a no head shot policy as has been rumored

So a guy everyone loves to hate, that's known for wrestling huh?

Tito?

Not sure, the last time my brother or I was at imperial was during the filming of the countdown... Phone Post

I wanna be a blackzilian. Although if anyone starts a Whitexican group, im there.

I have no issues with their name, as long as they have an open door to fighters of all races.
