So I'm standing in line at the Pac-Sun store in the Deerbrook Mall in Humble (15 mi. north of Houston, TX) waiting on my wife to pay for some clothes, and I saw this chick wearing a Fairtex jersey....I was about to comment to my wife about it, when who do I see but the recently suspended Young Assasin himself....I introduced myself, and told him to keep working hard....he was polite, but I didn't ask him what he was up to during the suspension (thought it would be rude)....anyway, he looked fit, and I hope everything works out for him.....I didn't have my phone or I would have shot a pic for the UG....just goes to show you how far mma is away from actually being "mainstream"....the store was packed to the gills and not a single other person knew who the hell he was
"and not a single other person knew who the hell he was"
Why would they, bro? It's not like he's Tito, Chuck, or Rampage. Only real fans would recognize him (like you).

He's the guy from TUF who talks shit and lost to Joe Stevenson in 30 seconds. Oh, and he beat a guy who couldn't beat cake.
Way to be polite and respectful bellmar. I bet athlete's really appreciate fans like you being courteous.
was he near the COKE machines?
there was a long LINE
I still am a firm believer that Melvin has a TON of potential. I'd love to see him rematch Huerta and beat him again... oh wait, the UFC protects their baby boy Roger.
was he near the COKE machines?
Dammit !
I like watching Guillard fight.
Never boring and always brings it.
So he got caught by Stevenson, big deal.
I want to see Guillard vs Franca, that'd be crazy.
No offense to Melvin, but he's not a "mainstream" fighter. Put Chuck Liddell or Ken Shamrock in the mall and see what happens.
^^^true....and, no, there were no COKE machines around....LOL....although he was wearing a tank, and while he's not tall by any stretch (5'8"), he's as solid as a rock....i'll be he has to cut at least 15-20 to get to 155
BM21
I was also asking myself, "what the hell is this guy doing in HUMBLE, TX? (the H isn;t pronounced...it's umble)....I'm guessing some of his people relocated here after the hurricane, b/c he was with 2 teens
BM21
lost his KEYS?
He is teaching classes at Saul Soliz's Metro Fight Club downtown..... anyone interested in training with him should call 713-794-0054
lol
was he in a hurry to BLOW out of the store?"
He was SMOKING outta that place!
Yeah. He's training at Houston Metro Fight Club. Really nice cat. Interesting interview. Hope he learned his lesson.
Tell Melvin to call coach.Haven't heard from him in a while and seems as though his cell # has changed.
I hear Melvin is sniffing to get back into the gym.
