    Broke ass's update

    Well last time i checked in i was in dire straights. No job no gym and coming off my first loss in mma. Since talking with the fam, some things have popped up, a local pro boxer that i've trained with before is doing a mixed show (boxing/mma) all pro, plus in a ring.(i'm a pride fan so this made my balls tingle) I went to get some tickets, and was talking how much to come back and train so i didn't get any fatter and he said ten bucks a month. So deal, I trained for like two days and he was like do ya want to train the mma guys in ground work. of course any thing for the team ya know? then the other trainer got sick and i had to help the pro boxer w/ his gloves one morning and the boxer was like yeah you'll be back up breon (the other trainer) so don't worry bout the monthly dues. A day later I got a job dishwashing, told the guys at the gym and the boxer was like hey one of these days i'll get around to payroll. I couldn't wipe the smile from my face. So at the moment i'm employed and can pay rent, I'm not only training but helping two fighters w/ their pro debut. And getting my chops up for 2013 grappling season. And quite frankly have been on beast mode since getting back. 45min rolls on thurs, 8x3min on mon and tues 5x3min. plus full rounds of row machine, bike, jump rope for 4 rds. Not to babble on but i feel good i feel like i can make some moves this year.And i feel it's because of all of ya, the cats who gave advice support and options, I put my problems there in the universe and the universe answered. Thanks guys for everything!!

    MMA in a ring is awesome, I wish they did that around here. Back in the day in jersey they had them all in a ring and I feel like all of the fights were exciting, no stalling ect.
