Babalu runs the Gracie Barra in Cerritos, CA.
Babalu also trains at Kings MMA in Huntington Beach, CA is run by former Chute Boxe head coach Rafael Cordeiro.
Babalu also trains Mark Munoz's Reign Training Center in Lake Forest, CA. Some of the Black House fighters also train at Mark Munoz's Reign Training Center as well.
I don't mind having fights going to a decision, as long as it's back and forth and technical.
TUF 12 wasn't that boring to me. None of the fighters were just doing a takedown and holding for decision, fighters were working. A lot fans have been saying this lately: "are fighters in the UFC fighting more safe now because they don't want to be cut?"
Strikeforce is good. But I would like to see fights go longer than 1st round.
Strikeforce in the past went Head-to-Head with King of the Cage on HDNET a couple times.
M-1 Global management wants a TV deal with Showtime. M-1 MMA shows are aired on the internet stream.
Jonathan Brookins said he is moving back down to 145 lbs. Remember Brookins fought Jose Aldo Jr. one time in the WEC.
Half of the TUF 12 constants were fighters who fought at 145 lbs and one or two of them fought at 135 lbs fights
Micah Miller Vs. Isaac DeJesus was a non-title bout, because Micah didn't make weight.
Tachi Palace Fights is using the Old WEC cage except the canvas is red now. Tachi Palace Fights is run by some of the former employees of WEC & Palace Fighting Championships
Kyle Watson who is the BJJ instructor at Matt Hughes's HIT Squad trained up in Canada at the Tri-star training center with Coach Firas Zahabi, Georges St-Pierre, & etc. Kyle Watson said there is no bad blood between Matt Hughes and Georges St-Pierre. Matt Hughes is okay with him training up with Canada with GSP
Robbie Lawler is part of two MMA camps now. Lawler still trains up at Matt Hughes's HIT Squad as well. But Lawler is now the Amateur MMA fight team coach for Power MMA & Fitness in Arizona now. Power MMA & Fitness is Ryan Bader, Aaron Simpson, C.B. Dollaway, Jesse Forbes, Seth Baczynski, Elena "Babydoll" Reid, Robbie Lawler, & etc...
Anyone with a brain knows that Leonard Garcia should be 0-6 in his last 6 fights. Swinging Windmill strikes and missing = victory?
Dustin Hazelett is moving back down to 155 lbs. The last time Dustin fought at 155 lbs was at UFC 67 against Diego Saraiva on 2/3/07.
UFC 124 St-Pierre Vs. Koscheck II takes place on Saturday December 11th, 2010 at the Bell Centre in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. It will air on PPV at 10pm ET / 7pm PT. No Co-Main Event on this card. No SPIKE TV Prelim. SPIKE TV has to pay a licensing fee every time they show a UFC Prelims, UFC Fight Nights, & TUF Finale
