What can I say about me? First off, I am a fan of Mix Martial Arts. I fell in love with the sport in the old days when two different styles of fighters were match up against each other. It was technically was not Mix Martial Arts back then because fighters still thought their style of fighting was still the best. As the sport evolved, stand up fighter figure out that getting taken down to the ground sucked and ground fighters figured out that getting punched and kicked sucked. With that in mind, fighters started to cross trained and the birth of a mixed martial artist.
My main style or martial art is Muay Thai. I love the stand up aspect of the style and I have the training in it since I was very young. I do not discount for one minute the value of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, wrestling, boxing, judo and as I evolved into a MMA fighter, all these styles are my responsibility to learn.
