I also want to thank FuzeBox from

Now on to the fight inself.....
So I got a shitty Win out of the deal...
that sucks...
Yes I want the win.. but I want a legit win...
Now Ive read all the other threads of everyone bashing me on this and that and oh mir was destroying me etc etc...
I got a few things to say... first of all.. whats your record? and vids?
2nd.. notice none of the other fighters or martial artist in here have said anything bad?
let me explain why...
first of all larry surprised the shit outta me.. if you google him watch his videos he never shoots for takedowns or clinches.. he comes out firing... we knew he was bigger.. for sure he's stronger...
so would it be smart for me to go stand toe to toe with someone bigger stronger than me in a fist fight? NO... I mean honestly.. I know you guys like seeing knockouts and blah blah.. but if you want to get KO'd go put your ass in a ring.. me I am going to fight smart..... just cause im smaller does not mean I can't win....
our gameplan was to watch for his overhand right and punch to the clinch take him to the fence and wear him out...
the thing is when a puncher has to wrestle and pummel his arms fill with blood they get heavy .. adrenlin dumps.... our game plan was wear him out first round.. then play on the 2nd round... any one who fights would say thats a great idea.. would I want to takedown a guy stronger than me? sure but not right off the bat.. as you see in the video he can throw me around but as long as you stay cool you can survive....
so we hug a bunch ... in the straighest way posable fight for posotion.. in the judges eyes I'm winning holding him on cage.. im controling.. if you notice he has to fight for posotion.. which is fine... he gets a trip on me... now he's winning in reality he was in a great spot to fuck me up... but I got my underhook and went ear to heart on him.. he can't punch me.. he throws one punch that basicly grazes off of me..... so in order to hit me he has to create space.. and any jits guy know's space is your time to shine... so next when he went to posture since I had my underhook I just rode it got my legs and stood up very fast.... now were back to even again... as strong as he is and me against a cage if I let myself get in bad spot he fucks me up.. but I stayed calm as a cucumber..
you can tell he knew I was looking to play on top cause when I got a single on him he sprawled like the fucking devil was there.... cause he wanted none of me on top...
so now he starts a barrage of punches in on me.... well my game plan on a puncher is move fwd always head first... you close distance he not punching.....
he threw what 4 punches the whole fight? the first one grazed my head and arm... the rest missed.. go ahead and watch it again and again over and over again..
trust me ive watched it many many times and beat myself up over this and that and this and that..... and in the end I keep coming back to it was pretty much even on the score cards until then... ive watched it with many pro fighters and we all say same thing.. I held my own just fine and it was 50/50....
now we get to the knee.. so in the rules meeting it was 45 min of NO KNEES TO HEAD EVER and NO ELBOWS thats all it was... they are very strict on it...
so I went in with my face unprocteded and got caught on my fucking jaw and got my marbles jarbled ... it happends it sucked... I would much rather have kept going trust me... the doc stopped it.. who am I to argue? and frankly my bell was rung.. so what.. it happends ... we didn't train for knees to the head....
up until that point I was holding my own just fine.. it was even..
I got points for cage control making him work.. he gets points for the trip.. it was a good trip.. he muscled it but it was good and took me down.. I got up.. he did no damage to me.. that scored me points back... I went for takedown he sprawled ...
at what point exactly is he dominating me? by no means am I dominating him either ......
did I make mistakes? sure I did.. do I think I look better than my last fight? you bet your ass I do... you can say what you want about the knee but im no bitch and that fucker rung my bell if it were a pro fight would he have won? more than likley but then again I would have trained for the knees to the head in the 12 week training camp..... how many of you can say you fought Main Event Memorial day fight weekend in a packed house at the same venue that Forrest Griffin and Stephan Bonner duked it out for the first season of the ultimate fighter.. in front of over 2500 people ? win / lose/ draw I had a lot of fun.. I learned .. and most importanly there will be a rematch and it will be bigger than this fight was....
I'm pissed about it.. he's pissed about it... were going to fucking war .....
and in all honesty it was pretty shitty to see all the comments on here from some of you who clearly have no idea wtf your looking at and talking about....
want my opinion it was a boring fight to the general fan.. but at no point do I think he was dominating me... it was a pretty even fight on the score cards...
