I think since it has been a while since I have posted (simply because there wasn’t much that interesting news to broadcast from the UFC) I think it’s best if I create like a weekly news on what I knew was going on and will go on.

I am always excited about the Machida – Shogun Rematch. It’s a fight of legends since Shogun was the first fighter to ever exploit Machida to pain. They say they will give it their all, they say they will have different strategies and I do hope that they do and give us fight fans the fight of the year.
On another note, there is Tito Ortiz’s recent arrest due to domestic violence. I am with Tito on this one. It’s like a martial artists instinct that Ortiz would never hurt a female or anyone in the matter that is not necessary but on females generally. I think most MMA practitioners in its real sense knows this. To learn the sport and be good at it, discipline and mental toughness is necessary. Otherwise, if things get bad, I’m sure a broken arm would be Jenna’s least problems to undertake.
I remember this one time when I lost control myself, I punished our door and my hand. The rage is there, sometimes it comes out, most of the time it stays in. But never to hit my wife, or anybody for that matter that is not necessary. Doesn’t mean you can that you should always prove it as one of my sensei’s before taught me.
Back to UFC related news is that Jackson and Evans have now a fight scheduled. It was long time due but I guess it’s more of a hype now than it was before being that Jackson is now more well known being cast in the upcoming movie remake – The A Team. White is always full of these under the sleeves techniques by which he commits to further more hype UFC fighters.

Urijah Faber got owned but Aldo hold back in the last round. Jose Aldo has now proven himself as one of the best pound per pound fighter in the world if not the best in his weight class. His dominant wins over Mike Brown and Urijah Faber seals the deal and gives him an invincible aura most of these P-4-P fighters have.
Manny Gamburyan, a TUF finalist also gained much respect after defeating former WEC champ, Mike Brown. A fight is a fight and it’s always as unpredictable as it is whenever you step into the octagon.
MMA in the Philippines Related News
An in-house jiujitsu tournament will be held in BAMF MMA Center tomorrow starting at 9am. The cause is for getting another individual within the DEFTAC (Defense Tactics Group) to go in the upcoming Mundials. It’s a show of how camaraderie can prevail in such short time and efforts to increase the growth of Jiujitsu and MMA in the local Philippine economy.
I will sure be there to watch and support these fellow jiujitsu practitioners which will be present tomorrow at BAMF MMA Center.
URCC University Challenge Trials
URCC is holding a MMA Try-out / Elimination on who wants to be a part of URCC University Challenge. On May 22, 2010 – these try outs or fights will be held at BAMF MMA Center.
This reminds me of the movie Never Back Down which is one of my fave’s by the way. Getting that social status in college, that is priceless. Also adds to the fact that we should promote martial arts in our young generation. Most people think that this will simply increase the number of bullies in school, but think again. Martial Arts is a serious deal to be in. If you really want to get buffed up and be the fighter you want to be, you have to have the mental toughness, discipline and respect along with a good heart and healthy body to cope up with real fighters of today.
URCC News
Richard Lasprilla possibly rematches with Erwin Tagle in URCC. Interesting fight to see, I remember some intriguing lines before between the 2 and they both grueled it out in 2 fights both ending in draws. Well now if the fight happens, there is no more draw in the URCC rules so we will know who the toughest man is.
What’s happening with URCC fighters? I am thinking of getting interviews from them whenever I get the chance. Let me write up a questionnaire for them then 
I guess that’s about it for this past week. Catch you guys up again next time. Probably sooner since if I can get pictures, I will probably share my BAMF experience tomorrow.
