Who is he going to fight

He wants to fight BJ Penn. I think a fight with Charles Oliveira would be KZ vs anybody in the top 15 would be pretty exciting. Dude always puts on a show.

So the UFC is trying to make this Mike Perry dude a "thing"? I see he already got another fight scheduled before the end of the year, 3 fights and he just debuted on the 202 card.

Is this just general MMA discussion? Can I post pics of me from last year when I did a fight or is there another thread for that?

General MMA discussion, but you can def post your pictures here if you want. There's also this thread stickied: http://www.thecoli.com/threads/the-...busy-inviting-mma-heads-thread.400394/page-25
We need more Coli brehs who train/fight. I'm not one of them though.

Awesome!

This is from my amateur fight last Nov 14th. I walk around 195-198. I cut to 170 for this! I don't really train as much now but this was a point in my life where I felt I had to prove something. I had 40-50 people show up...friends, family, coworkers. What a ride!

Some of my teammates

FIRST pic of me is around 180-185 though. I did a kickboxing bout in October to warm up for my November fight.

This is me emaciated as hell for my fight. I weighed in at 169.5. Channeling my inner Joanna Jedrzejczyk with my staredown here.

Two of my favorite photos from the fight.

Would I do it again? Hell yeah! I still love the spirit of the sport, but I'm in my early 30s. Before my MMA fight I found out I had a retinal tear and had to get surgery. I've gotten a broken rib from grappling before. You get numerous nagging injuries training and you're almost never 100%.

Whatever feeling or emotions I had prior, they were expressed during that fight. Part of me still has the itch, but I tell people when they ask me if I'm going to fight again "I'm just a computer guy".

Except when he fought Aldo...He looked very timid in that fight...
