Do any of you UFC fans rememeber Joe Diesel Riggs? I saw him this weekend at a Rage in the Cage event in Northern Arizona. He was not fighting but he trained with a few guys and he was a corner man for a couple of them. I heard he used to be like 300 lbs. Now he might be 170-180. Cool tattoos.

The training with Erik Paulson was awesome! I weighed 184 on Saturday, but weighed myself this morning at 179. I lost 5 pounds yesterday! It was a crazy intense workout which lasted from 10am till about 5pm. Rolled a lot and learned a lot with about 40 other guys. Paulson was very personable and is extremely good at what he does.

Yeah, that would take the fight right out of you.
About the training, maybe I need something like that.

WHo eventually beat the guy who beat Gracie? And did that guy ever coem back? Did Gracie ever come back after he lost that superfight??
Any one know which UFC I could find those fights in?
BTW... Nothing beats the first 5 UFCs.
They were the closest thing to real life self deffense against opponents of all sizes, disciplines and skills. with ... NO rules!! awesome.
Are you talking about the most recent one with Matt Hughes? If so, I think that Matt Sera beat Hughes then George St. Pierre beat Matt Sera. I think St Pierre is still king at that weight division.

You are right the Silva fight is on Saturday. You are also right about GSP being the top of his division. He is the Champ. There are rumors circling that later next year that Silva could face GSP even though they are not the same weight class. That could prove to be the greatest fight in UFC history.
As far as the Lytle fight you can see it on youtube I would suppose. It was two men standing going to blows. There was some amazing strikes but not much blood so it was clean and fierce at the same time. Serra did beat Hughes and GSP was able to avenge his loss to Serra I think it was in the beginning of the year or maybe the end of '07.

Most of you MMA fans have probably seen this but EliteXC is done, doors closed, Kimbo Slice and Gina Carano are out of jobs. Gina is one bad chica! Kimbo can go back to basement brawls for all I care, but Carano is the face of womens MMA and besides her good looks she is ultra talented and is a world champion Muy Thai fighter. She might do good for the UFC if they want to start a womens division.
