anyone know who Grim trains with?

I like Grim…He has potential, and he seems to keep it real without just bashing people. He could have easily Bashed EliteXC a lot worse then he did….he didnt name any names, but he kept it real. im a fan!

He was at team bison here in Minnesota- no one of note there except for maybe kelly kobald. I have never heard of strike fitness but i might check it out. Yea grim is a class act. He will win tomorrow.

Live in Minneapolis. Actually i was gonna test out a free BJJ class this past weekend at Crossfit revolution. They’re associated with Dave Camarillo and the teacher Damian Hirtz studied under Rickson for many years and is now with Dave’s Guerilla JJ team. The other schools here kinda suck i’ve heard.

LOL. Yeah all the “You Know”s after every 3 words is very annoying. I have been noticing that alot of people speak like that. Not just fighters, but normal people, professional athletes. It’s like they are trying to figure out what should come out next so it buys them time by filling in sentences with “you know” and “uhmm”. But I wouldn’t mind seeing this guy really become a top contender. He’s confident but not cocky. Got size but not to bulky that he can manuever.

His dismissal of Abongo at heavyweight is kinda rude. They have an opponent in common (Brian Heden) and Abongo KOed him faster than Rogers did.

What a horrible interviewer. That guy is rude and obnoxious.

You talking about Cofield or Rogers?

I like Brett Rogers .. huge potential and I like the fact that he is willing to do whatever. I see Rogers winning this fight and then having a title fight against Overheem later in the year.

I LOOOVE BRETT ROGERS! I’M GLAD HE WHIPPED ABONGO’S TALE. HE DESERVES IT! I KNOW HIS BABY’S MOM IN ATL. ABONGO IS A DEAD BEAT DAD THAT DOESN’T PAY CHILD SUPPORT.
