If you are into MMA, or watch the UFC, it’s on tonight!  So make sure you check it out on SPIKE and it starts at 9 PM.  Also, on February 6th, Phil Davis will be making his debut in the UFC 109.  His record is 4-0 and he is also a 4-time-All-American-wrestler.  When Phil fought in the UWC in June 2009, he won in the 1st round by rear naked choke, and the fight before that was TKO.  I first met Phil when he came to train here at Team Lloyd Irvin with some of the guys who were also fighting on the card.  We had Frank Camacho, Jose Villarisco, Ron Stallings, Timothy Woods and Mike Easton as our main event.  For the UWC fights, the team, including the children and parents are a real big support!  Everyone loves to go out and support the MMA guys, we always have a great vibe going!

This morning was yet another fabulous day of training.  I was able to get in my hour of drilling today with one of our females Erika Dailey.  I worked on some of the new stuff that I learned as well as the same stuff I have been working on.  On the other end of the mat the guys were doing a lot of wrestling/takedowns.  We had JT training with us today, our MMA guys, Ron Stalling, Timothy, JC, and DJ getting ready for their fight in February as well.  They were out on the mat getting work done!  As for the BJJ guys(Mike and JT), they are getting their sparring in for Europeans coming up in a few weeks.  After drilling for an 1 1/2 hours, I was able to spar with Master Lloyd as soon as class was done and everyone bowed out.  Then, I got my push ups on!  It’s Day 5 for me and I am feeling great! :) Then tonight is Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu at 8:30, and there will be a few girls in class that I look forward to sparring with.
