UFC 82 at Nationwide Arena
So it’s fight day. This will be my last update until after the fight. I’m feeling great and ready for competition.
There are many websites that covered the weigh-ins so it should be a relatively easy matter to get pictures and even video of everything. I weighed-in at 169.5 lbs and Fitch at170 lbs.
I found out after weigh-ins that there is a substantial amount of money available in bonuses too, which is a great motivator (like I needed more motivation)…
I went to bed late and got up late which is typical of fight day for me. I’ll spend the rest of the day up to the event lounging, snacking, napping, visualizing and thinking about my family.
I hope you all enjoy the fight, it should be a great one!

Chris - I’m a Fitch fan (went to school and wrestled with him), but it was an awesome fight last night. Got my respect and the respect of quite a few Fitch fans. Looking forward to seeing you more often.
