If you have ever suffering from delayed starts, putting off errands, or stuck in the planning phase, I'm going to give you the kick in the butt you need to get off your ass and get moving. I share a story that took me from planner to executioner - not the killing king though. 😂

We all have done it. We had a challenge, a task, or just something we are supposed to get done, and we don't do it. We procrastinate, we postpone, we delay, and hope that somehow this thing that NEEDS to be done will magically resolve itself, or that we will one day wake up wanting to do it. However, that rarely, if ever, happens. We need to muster up some courage, and grab the bull by the horns. The idea of conquering your fears is not new, but perhaps this approach if identifying what you need to do based on what you fear might help you expose low hanging fruit that can easily target problem areas in your life.

With the conclusion of Francis Ngannou vs Renan Ferreira, the looming bout between Jon Jones vs Stipe Miocic, and Tom Aspinall waiting to unify the heavyweight belt, we have a lot of big, bad man. Who is going to stand on the top of the mountain when it's all said and done?
I also do a review of the grappling world's baddest men, which include Gordon Ryan, Kaynan Duarte, and Nick Rodriguez.

I have said it before and I'll say it again - all the strength, technique, stamina, or toughness mean nothing without good tactics. The classic example of bringing a knife to a gun fight comes to mind, but you might mistake that as a lesson in having more lethal weaponry. But if your brought a sniper rifle to a close range combat situation versus a knifed attacker, you would also be in a bad spot (bringing a gun to a knife fight).
This played out in UFC Fight Night Vegas 98, as bad tactics caused fighters to lose winnable fights. I highlight a couple of matches and break them down as I saw them.

I sat down and watched the UFC 307 Main card from start to finish last night, and I gave my review of the card. If you watched my preview of the card, I was mostly right on my picks, although I wish I was got more wrong than I did right.
I layer in some critiques of fight strategy across the card, as I felt some fighters choose poor strategies for victory. I also think the Utah crowd was very disgruntled overall, as they booed most of the fights that evening. It definitely was a strange card.

UFC Fight Night 243 in Paris was outrageous. Some wilds fights, finishes, post fight antics, interviews, and fines. I talk about the main and co-main events, my opinion on the athletic commission fining an athlete $250,000 for bad sportsmanship, and why failing a weight cut is inexcusable.

Kron Gracie recently was quoted for an off hand comment attacking no gi grapplers, lamenting the rising growth of no gi grappling. I comment on this age old battle of gi vs no gi. I also talk about the role belt ranking systems play in martial arts, in light of an old training partner, Evandro Nunes, taking a strong stance against the ranking system.

I know prices have been going up for everything these days, but as an MMA fan, supporting the sport has never been so costly. The past Noche UFC had a reported average ticket price of over $1000, with the PPV being $89.95. I talk about my take on these rising prices as both a fan and as a martial arts school owner, and if the fighters are seeing any of this money trickle down into their pockets.

I don't think there is a question in that BJJ is surpassing MMA...as far as the growth of the techniques. MMA seems to have stagnated from my point of view, where fights now look the same as fights 10 years ago. Meanwhile, grappling is continuously evolving and developing new positions, techniques, and strategies. I share why I think that is, and what can be done to improve the state of MMA.

I return from Miami, Florida after a week of teaching and reconnecting with family only to find myself underprepared for what's next. This is a position just about everyone has encountered, but we all handle it with different approaches and results. I will share how I'm going to handle not being fully trained and ready for my next challenge.

Some of you wrote me to tell me you enjoyed my stories I told in the Chewjitsu Podcast Interview I had a few weeks ago, so I decided to share one that is very important to me - my crisis with faith. I'm not talking spiritually here, rather, personally - as I had a moment of weakness that cost my the chance at a world title. I share the lessons I learned and how being delusional can be a good thing.

After a very long weekend of world class grappling up close and personal, I give a bit more in-depth breakdown of the events, the Craig Jones Invitational and Abu Dhabi Combat Club World Championships, from a match stand point and spectator point of view, and pick a winner. It won't be what you think.

I witnessed a brave person perform a dangerous activity with almost no signs of trepidation, and it got me thinking about what it really means to brave. A lot of people think bravery comes from people who are fearless, but it's quite the opposite. I share some personal stories where I got nervous in competition to drive my point home, and why having fear is a good thing.

I review a couple of events that took place Saturday, the UFC Fight Night on Fight Island and the BJJ Stars 13. In particular, I focus on the main event of BJJ Stars 13, Davi Ramos vs Mica Galvao, and the importance of having a fighting spirit from beginning to end. Then I review the co-main event, Michael Chisea vs Tony Ferguson, and the importance of knowing when to move on.

The great comedian Rodney Dangerfield loved his iconic punchline of getting no respect. It's all too familiar, as we all make the mistake of not respecting people, ideas, or circumstances and getting into trouble. I have been on both sides of it, and I share how I have been choked unconscious multiple times because I lacked respect, or how I get mopped up on the mat because I judged the book by it's cover.

I have used pacing to win on many occasions in my career. Many people think it's simply a matter of having better cardio, but that's only a part of the solution, and not always necessary. I share insights into how to train for it, tournament strategy, and ways of manipulating pace to win.

If you are training in the martial arts, then you know the ultimate goal is mastery. That comes in many forms. For the white belt, getting a black belt feels like mastery. As a competitor, winning the world championships would be the top of the mountain.
However, the true goal of mastery is elusive, as this ideal of perfection can never be reached. But, we can get closer to it than we are now. I'll share a few different strategies that anyone can employ right now to get better faster, and some insights into my life that might be useful for your journey.

I turned 43 yesterday, and I talk about what I have learned this past year. I also discuss briefly the results of Tye Ruotolo and Jozef Chen, and CJI's under 80kg bracket.

Oil checking, slap fighting, and now leg kicking competitions. What's next? CJI continues to make waves with big announcements, and a very big fight weekend with UFC, PFL, Bellator, and BKFC all having events.
