I will be there, at Dave Ross's school this Friday, 4:30 pm. I will make sure that there is no 'monkey business' (I couldn't resist) going on.
I will supply the video camera and the security (1 police officer and some of my students). No one will enter the school with a weapon.
I read the posts from both D. Ross and Gus Kaparos. Without trying to embarrass anyone, there is a lot of truth to what one of them says, and the other is full of sh1t.
I for one, what to see this fight happen. I think the outcome will serve everyone well.
Best of luck to both fighters. I've known them both for about 20 years. They have never gotten along and never liked each other.
The last time you guys sparred (or really just played around) was about 15 years ago. I would assume that you are both different people right now, different martial artists. 15 years is a lot of time and a lot of room for growth. I hope both of you realize that the past does not equal the future.
I'll keep my personal opinions out of this (for now).
The fight will be at 5:00 PM on this Friday at New York San Da in Manhattan.
Here is the address;
New York San Da
313 W 37th Street, 8th Floor (Between 8th and 9th Ave.)
BUZZER # 806
New York, NY 10018
(212) 239-8619
UFC Rules, which are almost no rules, fighters need to bring their gloves and a cup. I'll bring extras just in case. No biting, no gouging, etc.
And to make things simple, let's say 3 five minute rounds - video tape can be the judge of the fight - and it's over after 3, or until someone taps or is unable to continue.
My goal is to make sure their either fighter is not seriously injured and will stop the fight if either fighter is unable to defend themselves.
See you all on FRIDAY, 5:00 PM at the above address. That's this FRIDAY 10/27/06 to avoid any confusion. Fighters, please be punctual as we will start the fight promptly at 5:00.
Good Luck!
