Yes people! We are looking for 2 eligible candidates, one male and one female,  to begin documenting their training at Universal MMA. All you need to do is click the image above and fill out the form!

We are looking for beginner to novice trainees who are passionate about MMA and not afraid to show the world what their all about. Your training will be documented online with your own writing, photos and video.

So what are you waiting for? It’s six freakin months of free frickin training, Apply NOW!

So I’ve attempted to eat well and stay active and have had absolutely no success with it whatsoever, but I’ve managed to keep most of the weight off and I’m jacked up and ready to rock.

I think I’m heading into Universal tonight to train with a friend of mine by the name of Denis Kang . Denis is a top 10 ranked middleweight MMA fighter. Ya, on the planet.

Its kind of like if Ryan Kessler or Brendan Morrison let you hang out to show you how to fire off a solid wrister.

Except that its Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and not Hockey. And they’re not shooting pucks at a goalie, they’re shooting them at me. Greeeat.

Luckily we’re homies so it shouldn’t be too bad. Besides, when else would you have an opportunity like this?

A world class athlete to not only hang with but train alongside? Effing sweet.

If you guys have any questions that you want me to pass on to Denis about training, just comment on this blog at the top and I’ll fire them off to him!

Library Square is located right next to the big ass library downtown, the address is 300 West georgia St.

It’s hosted of course by me, and whoever else from Universal that wants to roll through. Students and instructors from Universal get their own little section to hang out in and mingle, while watching the sweet MMA Action.

Kalib Starnes from Surrey is fighting on this card, as well as fellow Canadian Jason MacDonald…and of course the Middleweight Championship of the Universe featuring Anderson Silva and Rich Franklin.

Cover is 5 bucks (By faaar the cheapest in Vancouver for UFC PPV events) AND you get to see my creeapy ass bent up finger…absolutely free of charge.

Now that I’ve got that out of the way lemme fill you in on whats up. That little finger dislocation thingamajig  that I had last week has my finger in a splint for six weeks!

 Ha.

It’s nothing too serious but I can only take Muay Thai class right now because Brazilian Jiu Jitsu requires a lot of gripping and holdin on, which is a little tough with one hand.

As you do or do not know I am also an NFL analyst, well this time of year is like Christmas and my Birthday and spring break all rolled into one. I’m up at 4:30 every Saturday morning doing radio interviews like mad. As well as my weekly beer consumption ratio increase by around 50 times. seriously, I have a keg sitting on my patio right now!

Actually, let me plug oone of my shows, check it out here: http://radio.betus.com

Anyways, I’m back in business next week, after I get a bit of sleep.
