Today was a cool practice. I had the opportunity to train with some new guys who came up here. Alberto Crane was here with some other guys like Joe, Cory and Tim. Basically, a mix of a bunch of really good wrestlers and submission guys. I got the chance to tone down the striking a bit and get tons of reps fighting off the shots and clinch takedowns against a bit smaller human beings than the 220 lb dudes that I have been fighting thus far. Kind of a nice change up. It’s a bit different style going from people who manhandle you to going with guys who are quick and slick and usually a step ahead. I am feeling good and getting more and more anxious for the fight.

In completely unrelated news, the betting lines I saw had me at +425. I’m a great dog bet… I think. I wonder if I’ll ever be favored in a fight? I’ve had title defenses where I wasn’t favored… Go figure. Take care everybody.
