Default Getting ready for my fight**

Starting to get ready for my February fight.

Working my hands with Jamie Strader aka Boxx (Jorge Gurgel and Rich Franklin's boxing coach).

lol that wasnt that nice scottish but silva is on another level when it comes to striking and super one hand clinch strength lol Hope dan henderson comes back on down to middle weight, would make for an amazing fight. But good early luck in your fight 13, great place to train, you training grappling/bjj up in those parts with those same fellers??

LOL.....there is only one person that can beat Rich's hands and that's Silva. Everyone else has fallen victim to them. Being second best middleweight in the world isn't a horrible thing either. Right?

I know you were joking...all good.

Boxx can only teach, he can't fight for me.

Dan would be a great prospect or even Paulo Fihlo from WEC. I honestly believe if either one beats Silva then Rich is back in the game to win. Silva ia a bad matchup for Rich.

Yeah i also train grappling at Jorge's but i originally trained with a Carlson Gracie/Andre Pedeneiras black belt. I am originally a Nova Uniao fighter from a affiliation of Renato Varissimo/BJ Penn's school. Most of my Jiu Jitsu experience comes from a very technical teacher named Du Du Barros.

Jorge's Jiu Jitsu is good and Dustin Hazlett is very good to. His transitions are great. Even know Jorge doesn't show it, his is very good as well.
