Sounds like he and Nick have parted ways.

Both great guys, wish them the best!

Can the corners not manage cuts? It seemed like it took forever for anybody to help Joey after 2nd round.

gavin how did the bell fight turn out?

sgavin · February 2, 2006, 2:00pm

went pretty well--- I fucked up my prep during the day--- didn't eat enough, felt really sluggish, worked way too hard, couldn't get warm.

Ended up submitting him :45 into round one. I was transitioning a kamura into a keylock and his elbow snapped before i put the shoulder lock on.

Good fight--- I really like Bell... he works hard, loves fighting big guys and has absolutely no fear. My hat is off to him.

Thanks dude--- how's the hand healing up?

heelhookerMMAA · February 2, 2006, 7:15pm

the hand is driving me nuts, i cant wait to get back into formal training (MMA, Muay Thai and BJJ classes... right now i would only be a burden to a training partner since i cant hold pads on my left hand and in advancded BJJ i cant really roll yet...) but I have been jogging and come into the gym every now and then to train kicks and such...

damn it sucks being injured!

When one thing is injured it opens the door to focus on something else.

You hand is hurt - great time for you to be doing about 200 shots a day. BTW if your shot was better you would have taken the guy down and never hurt your hand in the first place ;)

I also tell my guys train through your injuries what ever you can do. This is really a good opportunity to sharpen your game

jachkl · February 4, 2006, 11:31am

anyone going to watch fights @ primetime tonite?

"great time for you to be doing about 200 shots a day"

I do that now - oh you're talking about training. Never mind.
