UFC 113 Set-Straight

Well, finally the light heavyweight title is in the right hands, the first time Lyoto "the dragon" Machida and Mauricio "shogun" Rua fought it was surrounded by controversy and rightly so! Rua challenger for the UFC Light Heavyweight title left it in the judges hands and was ripped off. But then you remember that saying "to become the champion you have to beat the champion!" The first MMA spectacle, Rua won in technique but he didn't beat him,if that makes any sense, so Machida remained champion. But his time "Shogun" didn't leave it in the judges hands and got his deserving UFC light heavyweight title.

The one aspect of this title fight like the first was it was mainly a stand-up war, which fits both of these fighters. But as my first master taught me 80% of all fights end up on the ground which will eventually be Rua's undoing. Myself being a Tae Kwon Do practitioner and instructor now with my own school took that advice to heed, but with no time to join a school and make it to classes. But I still needed to compliment my Tae Kwon Do with some good ground-fighting Jui-jit-su techniques, thank God I found this Click Here!

What about Kimbo Slice? Out of the UFC, he'll still find some fights somewhere and I hope he does. My son has been a fan of Kimbo from you tube videos for awhile now. I just always thought he was just some backyard thug. When I seen Dana White invited him into the UFC house last season my son was excited. I was a little worried for him and warned him that fighting in the UFC was a whole different world than a backyard. After getting to know Kimbo I found myself rooting for him, what a great guy! No attitude, no big ego, very respectful and wanting to learn. But as I mentioned earlier absolutly no ground game which was and still is his weakness. He needed this online MMA Click Here! that I mentioned earlier it helped me tremendously round out my skills and still is as learning is a ongoing journey. Best of Luck. Keep those hands up! Luke
