I read that too... Very Disappointing. Get well soon Denny!
does this mean the seminars after are off as well ?
I was so excited to have one of our generals in there. Tough break Denny, but I'm sure you'll get another invite to the next one. I hope your injury heals up quick.
Denny's mortal?

That sux! I hope it's not serious , Can you get Sean in there?
Since Denny's hurt, put me in the game coach! just kidding.
get well soon Denny, you don't need adcc to tell you that you're the best in the world, we all know it!
Damn, he seemed so pleased to have no injuries on that interview too :(
You gotta be kidding me. Seems the human body needs a couple thousand more years of evolution to keep up with 10th planet
NOooOo...Well I hope its not serious and you recover quickly Denny! I hope you can make it to the no-gi Worlds in November.
Man that sucks! Get better man, you get them next time :)
What happened to him?
Please no!!!
That sux, get well soon Denny
Epstein or shigeki should go in his place ! Get well soon Denny !

On the bright side I learned a lot preparing for this tournament, so my time training did not go to waist plus it was fun to wake up everyday and train for the best in the world. What happened was about three Saturdays ago I tweaked my back lifting and it got worse to the point to where I could barely drill and not even flow roll. I rested my back for about two weeks and still couldn't roll. So seeing that I was so close to the tournament and I couldn't train not even to maintain my weight, I decided to pull out.
I will also not be conducting my seminars in Nottingham or Essex. I am very sorry for that. Hopefully I get in for ADCC 2013 and assuming I heal up in time I will try to do the 2011 mundials. Thank you everyone.
Good thing is you'll survive to battle again. Thank you so much for the explanation. We've all been hurt in the past: torn ligament here, hair line fracture on the rib there, ... We live to fight another day! 10th PlanetQuote:

Rest up, get better, and keep going =)
I *shudder* at the thought. That's a terrible, painful, long time to heal injury. Glad you're taking care of yourself Denny. You have an ADCC to win next year =D.Quote:

Best wishes Denny
We love ya Denny, rest and heal up, we're look forward to seeing you in action again soon!
Sending positive energy your way man.
again, more good energy your way Denny. Was looking forward to the celebratory pint after. we will just have to delay it :)
That's a real shame: I came on here purely to read what 10th Planet people were saying about Prokopos' chances in the ADCC. I was also looking forward to seeing how the best 10th Planet guy would do against elite level grapplers. Ah well: hopefully next time.
I'm gutted. Get well soon Denny.
Gutted, no 10th Planet rep at the ADCC...I'll still be repping the T-shirt!
