- A Lawyer in Long Beach pt 4 : Clash of the TitansSaturday at the Mundials was the real beginning of the “Clash of the [BJJ] titans.” The junior blue-belts divisions, the purple-belt male and female open divisions, as well as the brown belts and the lighter-weight black belts (my favorite divisions of course) were on the docket. The bullpen, the stands, and the surrounding areas were flooded with BJJ royalt […]
- A Lawyer in Long Beach pt 3 : Once the Dust SettledLater in the day we came up with a plan whereby each fighter from Crazy 88 preparing for a fight would be assigned an assistant who had fought the day before, to make sure they had everything they needed.

- UFC 114: Rampage v Evans Review by Jon DelbruggeUFC 114 was a Mayweather style hyped card.

- STRIKEFORCE: Heavy Artillery Review-Jon Delbrugge- In today’s mainstream MMA we have an oversaturation of the blood splattering, lightning bolt, tribal tattoo designed logo appeal to it.

The sun is shining and the snow is melting slowly but surely! Today was the first Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu training since last week Thursday.
For the BJJ class, Master Lloyd and Mike Fowler got straight to rolling! Frank, Lenny, and Anene warmed up and jumped in there as well. The MMA guys got their sparring in with Coach Tom Zurita.
Last week, Mike Fowler, DJ Jackson, Willie Leonard, Frank Camacho and I went up to Crazy 88 in Elkridge to get some training and I hurt my groin. Unfortunately, I need to take the time to rest and let it heal. Any more training could possibly tweak it more! Injuries to your groin muscles can occur when the muscles are over stretched due to quick movement changes. Make sure to listen and take care of your injuries.
Check out Master Lloyd Irvin rolling with Mike Fowler and Frank “The Crank” Camacho.
Lloyd Irvin’s Mixed Martial Arts Academy is still closed! Practice will be held tomorrow around12 noon. So make sure you show up, ON TIME!
