Cool opportunity tossed my way (UFC)

///Matt · 08-23-2007, 04:16 PM

So apparently, I've been tapped to help in the training of some UFC fighters.

I was asked if want to be a wrestling partner for a couple of guys, since I'm big, strong, felxible, and am able to hold my own in a wrestling match. I'm 6'1", 250 (but I look 190. It works out to my advantage. hehe), and I've been training in BJJ and Jeet Kune Do for about 10 years....

I can't wait to get it on. Hopefully, if I meet the right people and show them that I'm good for more than just a wrestling dummy, I may be able to start training to compete in the UFC. :rocks:

And then, maybe if I'm lucky, I can be a part of whatever queer activity you engage in for fun.

modster · 08-23-2007, 05:35 PM

Good luck Matt, also get some muy thai training under your belt as that is pretty crazy fighting.

evoi19 · 08-23-2007, 05:42 PM

ohh nice! Let me know if you decide to do this. Depending who you're training, we can send you some Knoxx MMA clothing to you and the fighter if they have a contract in UFC.

///Matt · 08-23-2007, 05:47 PM

That's cool, Evo, thanks.

And Modster, I do also have some Muay Thai.

I'm fairly well rounded, I just need to get in better shape and get back into practice.

FotiosF90M5 · 08-23-2007, 05:47 PM

sounds pretty fun.

Minipuck V 2.0 · 08-24-2007, 05:20 AM

where is OC335i and Clean3? they would love this

OC Guy · 08-24-2007, 06:14 AM

Congrats Matt. Good luck with all your training.

Minipuck is teasing me because I'm starting to train next week. Not to compete, just to get in shape and the love of the sport. I have a wrestling background and dabbled in some JJ in the late 90s. My friend is an instructor @ nolimitsmma.com .

Where are you training at? Who are you training with? (can you say?)

Das M · 08-24-2007, 08:31 AM

sounds cool. good luck and stay healthy. keep us posted on how things go.

Brunotheboxer · 08-24-2007, 08:55 AM

hey matt, good luck and protect those knees no matter what.
