Hate to break it to some of you lazy basdaads, but amateur fighters travel a lot if they REALLY want to fight, we're NY based and have fought in Florida, MD, Ohio, MA, CA, PA, etc....

I've already posted that I'm very willing to travel and I'm currently in talks with a few CA promoters. As I have friends who have fought for KOTC (King of the Cage)
I'd like to get on their Sept 22 event at SOBOBA CASINO in San Jacinto CA.
LOL - I keep getting a "He's a kung fu guy?" from the promoters.

Thats not good for me. It has to be after Oct.
Call it an Internet grudge match.
To answer Pang.
ST counts the 9 years of Jow gar in his 13 year training time. I find this funny since he doesn't value it.
I'm all for it. I'm doing it because I'm tired of his yapping and grandstanding.
Whats your motivation, mickey? Video?
mmmm, interesting.
well i certainly hope this happens.
if so, gl to the both of you.

WTF?
The ducking has begun!
My very first post said "Let's set up something for this summer or early fall."Thats not good for me. It has to be after Oct.
Your reply was:
You see I'm an active fighter. I have a fight coming up in a few weeks for a title, another for middle of the summer and I asked you to fight in early fall. Now you're trying to move it back to Nov? by November I'll have several more fights on my record and no promoter will even consider putting me vs. a guy with no fights.You got it. Get ready for the fight of(for) your life. Sep. or Oct. would be good for me.
I think I know exactly what's going on. It seemed clear to me when he said "205 ish was fine"
I think this guy is seriously overweight and will not be able to make even the higher 205lb. limit by my suggested date of Sept 22nd for the KOTC event.

Can we keep the fight on the east coast so I don't have to travel??
There are a few things to consider
1) ST it sounds like you are fighting on a professional level
2) SifuAble I'm assuming hasn't had any MMA matches and I'm not sure about this but in the Iskba I think you have to have at leat 6 fights before you can go pro
3) What about Sanctioning don't you have to be liscenced??
How about you guys just forget the whole weight class crap and just fight?
I mean, didn't the MMA God Gracie himself fight and WIN against guys who greatly out wieghed him?
What, are you so afraid of a "Kung Fu" guy that you have to be talking weight classes?
Just go in there, Mount him from the Guard with an armbar and choke him out already!
Those that are the most sucessful are also the biggest failures. The difference between them and the rest of the failures is they keep getting up over and over again, until they finally succeed.

Because sanctioned events have weight classes. and I have a fight every few months. I am having my last few fights at 205 and will be down to 185 for the rest of my career. They will not allow a middleweight to fight heavyweight without making the minimum weight and that would totally **** me up. I'd have to gain 16lbs+ and then lose it again to continue in a weightclass that I'm trying to get a title in. Abel is maybe 5'-8" tops If he can't make 205 then he's shaped like a butterball turkey.Originally Posted by Royal Dragon
I asked him if he could fight at 205 and he said he could. End of discussion.
I'm not afraid at all. in fact I probably won't even prepare in my normal manner. I'll just teach my daily classes.What, are you so afraid of a "Kung Fu" guy that you have to be talking weight classes?
