Im not too sure. I would have to think about that one..
I saw a video the other day that shows most of the ‘finishes’ of 2009 for all MMa orgs. Watching it might help establish some of the top fights?
it was a decent video…heres the link-

BAR FIGHT***
Tim sylvia started talking crap to WWE star KANE, Kane got mad, took Sylvia down and pounded on his face, breaking Sylvia’s nose and leaving him with black eye’s…this happened in a Michigan Bar. Neither guy was arrested, Tim had to go to the hospital for his nose!
How great is that? Is that not the greatest thing I have ever posted?
This made my day!

Oh and let me guess Hogan came in and gave tim a leg drop to finish him off? Dude enough with the lies, thanks for the laugh tho.

There’s no harder work out than training with a belly of beer my friend. Trust me if you can tough out a work out session after five or six pints any other session will be a breeze. Try it out you’ll hate me tonight and thank me next week.

Ill take your advise for the future. I dont think ill try it out today my friend. thanks for the advise though lol.

McArthur and anyone else who trains/fights…
I’m making my pro MMA debut may 30th, and in my state/town there arent many choices of gyms to train at, my place has some really good talent but we only train/spar/roll 2x a week. i’ll be fighting at 135 or 145 and my question is this – does anyone have any specific strength training/conditioning routines that would help me out? also, any suppliment advice? thanks in advance for any info given

I train, and i make my pro debut April 11. at 145, congats to you my friend. What days do you train? whatever days you have off you should go jogging, go to the gym and run the mill. What we do at my gym is when someone has a fight coming up we focus on them and make sure their prepared, everyone take turns sparring, rolling any extra workouts you can get in. that sucks you only train twice a week.

Anyone heard of Alex Garcia he fights out of Brawley Ca with 5150. My buddy works on a rig with him and i just went out there and partied with him last weekend. Dude is super cool and a great fighter.

I got a QUESTION regarding Bellator – They are signing some VERY decent fighters. I keep reading that it is on ESPN Deportes. Now, this may be a dumb question, but I’m for real. Is it also going to be on ESPN 2 and announced in English?? I ask because I would MUCH prefer to hear english over spanish. Most TV’s have a SAP button so that your tv will broadcast in Spanish – however, there is no ENG button to turn spanish channels into English.
In other words, are the English speaking MMA fans going to have to watch the event in mute??? The only way I leave the volume on is if the spanish MMA anouncing is anything like soccer announcing.

by ViolentMike on Mar 17, 2009 12:19 PM EDT up reply actions
I know they were trying to make it to where they had an English announce team that would be available through the SAP button on your tv, but I’m not sure if they officially made that happen or not. I know it was being discussed though.

by Andrew on Mar 17, 2009 11:43 AM EDT reply actions
for supplements (pre-workout) I haven’t found anything that compares to NO Xplode although it can be easy to over use. I use it for early (5am) workouts primarily and on weekends. When I’m not using NO (which will lose its potency with over use) I use a pre-workout supplement called Xpand (with caffine) which is not as hard on the body and can be used everyday I workout. I’ve also started eating organically which sounds brutal but hasn’t been too bad. Tons of nuts, organic milk, peanut butter, and fruits/veggies, have increased my energy levels early in the morning 10 fold. It doesn’t sound like much but it allows me to workout twice a day and still hold down my full time job. Makes for a busy schedule but nobody said it was easy right? There are a few fighters on this site (some regulars) that would be able to advise you on their routines as well as I’m constantly pickin their brains whenever possible. Good luck with the fight and if you can remember to try and have fun with it, your nerves won’t get the better of ya ;)
by McArthur on Mar 17, 2009 11:58 AM EDT up reply actions
Andrew…if your going to take a pre-workout supplement WITH caffine, don’t drink coffee!! It’ll dilute faster, shortening the effect it has on your energy levels
by McArthur on Mar 17, 2009 12:00 PM EDT up reply actions
Kev, who was it a while back who trains to fight that was giving us advise on workout routine/supplements???
by McArthur on Mar 17, 2009 12:41 PM EDT up reply actions
p.s, did you guys crash at all after using the NO Xplode? i would hate to get up at 6 and hit the gym then fall asleep at my desk when i go to work at 9. i’ll be checking back on this thread later today to see if any additional info/training advice is posted. again, thanks guys!
by Andrew on Mar 17, 2009 12:47 PM EDT up reply actions
yes I have…get a lot of sleep, eat right and see how it goes…everyone reacts differently…lemme know man!

i tried NO explode, i was training back and found that i could lift shit loads of weight, i usually train with 160kg deadlift but managed 180kg and i felt i could have done more, i also did 3 sets of 8 for wide grip pulls ups with 20kg, but as soon as i got home i had a massive come down almost a depressed feeling for about an hour and a half. i asked about with friends who have tried it and half of them had the same effect so for some its a good idea but for the rest said that the awesome training felt like it wasn’t worth it cos of the come down
by ruan-fiy on Mar 17, 2009 5:47 PM EDT up reply actions
Benn using NO Xplode for a couple years and it is as good as stated. And no, there isn’t a crash afterwards unless you count the crash from it helping go through workouts with new intensity.
by PJJ on Mar 17, 2009 6:30 PM EDT up reply actions
only time I felt a crash was when I took it and didn’t work out. it happened one time and it was a crash, but as long as you tke as directed, it’s a great product!
by kevin on Mar 17, 2009 6:34 PM EDT up reply actions
Thanks McArthur, i dont post much here but i visit and read all the comments multiple times a day. I’ve actually been thinking about NO Xplode for a while now, and now i’ll for sure be picking some up. Appreciate the advice!

Andrew go to you tube and search “Brock Lesnar All acess training video” He has a fairly crazy work out and he even talks about what he takes while training there is two parts to the video. MMA training videos and you should be able to find many other fighters and their work outs. I don’t fight anymore but I still work out, play hockey and coach wrestling the best work outs are ones that you believe will work even though you may hate them. When you believe in what you are doing is working it’s surprising how much farther you can push yourself. One awsome work out Brock does is his hip twist on the matt great for any style of fighter. The better endurance you have the better a work out you will get so always keep pushing your endurance training. Have fun and good luck. I’ll have a Green Beer tonight for you cheers.

Everybody is different the best thing to do is make a schedule and stick to it, make sure you keep track of your progression and make goals each week. it helps to have a partner push but if you don’t have that option make sure you set goals, even set unrealistic goals to see how far you can push yourself. Eating healthy is all you need supplements are for lazy peaple trying to get a quick fix. When i work out I make sure I get all four groups and eat five normal size meals a day rather than three and drink lots of gatorade during my work outs.

ha! theres a ton of Junie haters and i could be one of them if it was a personality contest. but he showed worlds of improvement since the showed and since this is an actual fight… i gotta say junie by UD.
he sucks at wrestling (by his own admission) but i think he has good take down defense and can probly keep it standing long enough to show some of his, hopefully, improved cardio
but if miller gets him in a sick jits choke then i wouldnt be too upset either
