On a side note Bryan lost a razor thin split dec, and we are extremely proud of his peformance as well! We also had 4 guys compete at the NE Grappling Challenge earlier that day taking home 3 medals:
Nick Muir Mens No-Gi Intermediate 161-175 1st Place
Kyle Hilfiker Mens No-Gi Intermediate 161-175 2nd Place
Ben Gardner Mens No-Gi Beginner 145-160 3rd Place
FFL is a great little local show, and it was awesome that Anthony won their first title.
Great seeing you and your guys representing and not having the mixed feelings of having Anthony in the cage against one of my friends (not to mention no toes flying off this time).
No hard feelings brotha, he was a nice guy, came in and talked with us in the locker room after the fight. True no toes flying is a good thing ;)
Congrats to Anthony and The Rochester team! You guys continue to inspire the rest of us!
Each round is decided by a coin toss Submission Grappling, Muay Thai or San Shou (Muay Thai w/Takedowns):

Huge props to Anthony!
Sucks to hear about Bryan. That guy must have been a tough MF'er cuz Bryan is a tough dude himself.Quote:

Major props to Ben though. Not that it's surprising, just because that guy is improving a lot.
Great work to the team!
Very proud of my team, can't wait to see what happens this weekend!
Good job!!
