[The axe murderer]

Maybe he was off that day but he took a picture with me, signed an autograph for me and stuff. He just was indifferent towards me so I thought it was just long, but he saw my friend and got excited like "Hey he look like Macheetah!"

Ha I just want to BANG bro. Honestly the times I've tried Bang Muay Thai I felt that it is a stylistic match for my body type. I'm just kinda hesitant of doing it full time because I still like lifting and other stuff and the last time I did martial arts 100% I had to lift WAY less.

Who else have you rolled/sparred with breh

Who else have you rolled/sparred with breh

Only Tim Kennedy and this Bellator fighter Matt Jones.

If I start training at Onnit I'll probably run into more fighters. My friend has met Eddie Bravo, Bas Rutten, and Tyron Woodley..

Dope, he even met Bas Rutten

I've only met Eddie Alvarez when he was training for the Pettis fight. Dude is real chill

man the 185 division is fukked up. Whittaker beats Rockhold who do you even throw at Whittaker? Now I see why Kelvin legit thinks he can get that titleshot.
No opponent for Yoel, Hes already beat Weidman and Jacare, already lost to Whittaker.

Wouldnt be surprised if Brunson beat Jacare but wtf do you do with Brunson after that? nikka already lost to everybody

185 reminds me of 205 before Jones came along, the title changing hands every other fight

I haven't met Bas Rutten YET. Maybe will in Jan.

Alverez seems like a scrappy dude. Definitely a People's Champ.

If Whittaker beats Luke, thats his division for a long time.

Kelvin might actually be the only one that could box with him

Whittaker has talent but he's not a level above everybody else

Strongly disagree, think he beats Jacare, Romero, Weidman, 10/10 times.

Only thing left for him to prove is can he survive on the floor with Rockhold. 185 is the #easymoney division right now.

I met Frankie Edgar. Dude is cool as fukk

Whittaker is cool but he isn't elite in anything I think he's beatable but he has heart and no real weakness right now... I prefer Rockhold in that match up. I would even take Kelvin but Whittaker won't stand too long against him.

He doesn’t have to be elite in anything, it’s a old flabby division. Jacare, Yoel, Weidman, Luke. All out of their primes with suspect chins and suspect cardio. That’s half your division right there.

And why would Whittaker not stand with Kelvin? He’s gonna grapple with a former state champion wrestler?

I read that Uriah Hall feared for his life sparring him.
