HELLO EVERYONE,
IT IS WITH GREAT HAPPYNESS AND JOY THAT I AM COMPETING AT THE 2010 WORLDS.
Through this year I had great plans for MMA. But my Japanese organization fell thru, negotiations weren’t the best for me … training was going great.. conditioning was tight and boxing was coming along…. and I had decided that I was only do MMA this year. But in this business ways never go how we wanted.
Im the type of guy that is motivated by challenges and this year will be a challenge. Among the old tough guys that we all know, there are a few new names in the scene, and I got really pumped.
Training has started… I’m in shape… but there is couple things. MMA hands are soft… so my fingers are already hurting so… fight grip, rope. fight grip, pull up with the gis….. :) The skin is hard but soft…. I have to deal with scratches and bruises…. and being heavy in the bottom and light in the top…. No way. 4 weeks of hard training… the troops are ready to do this and Im excited to lead my Army one more time.
Go Ribeiro Jiu-Jitsu, go Gracie Humaita… time to take care of business.
Goals for this….. Absolute and Heavyweight Division…. I ll be there to do my best and my best I ll do… Thats all that I am going to do…. fight hard, fight smart and FIGHT HAPPY.
OSS
Go, Xande!!
