HERE IT IS.

Israel Adesanya is fun to watch. I'd love to see him vs Jon Jones at some compromise weight if the champ ever got his life together. But I guess he quit the game because he can't stop partying, or doesn't want to.

Would anyone be interested in a RealGM Wizboard underground fight club? Imagine me jumping off a painter's ladder, doing a stone cold stunner on PIF through a folding table.

A succinct update on the state of my grappling career: Ow, my knees.

I actually found the hardest part of grappling to be grip. Big, strong hands are supernecessary, and because I had broken/sprained fingers from basketball, I had virtually no cartilage in my fingers, which made it difficult to grip an opponents gi.

Anyway, I'm going to move from BJJ to sambo to round out my skillset (hopefully when this pandemic thing dies down).
