The day was very successful. 10/20/2008 My Fight at IMMAEWell, the International MMA Expo for the Southwest was held at Rawhide last weekend (October 11th). The expo was quite a disappointment as myself and everyone else there seemed to really be expecting more out of the event based on the advertising and hype. I registered to compete in the MMA tournament at 155 pounds. Despite the poor event, the tournament fights held on Saturday night were pretty good. I think there were issues matching up guys in the proper weight classes too. Several guys obviously looked mismatched and several backed out of fights. I was anxious to fight but the guy I was matched up with was also obviously bigger than me. I won the fight by armbar in the second round but left the cage with a bruised rib and shoulder. Regardless, it was an awesome experience and I can’t wait to do it again. :) 6/24/2008 K Alliance, LLCJune 2008 - Present I have been contracted by K Alliance to develop and film the following courses:
