Did one lesson and always wanted to keep going, but damn BJJ is an expensive sport

Staring back up in a few weeks!

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Apparently cowboy lawler in nyc is official

 

[streetballer23]

Cowboy - Lawler can't wait.

I am interested to see the CM fight this weekend, interested in what he can do. It's been what, 2.5 years of training now??

Overeem has it this weekend vs Miocic

Great read from J-Lo. Love this dude man.

Also, for my BJJ guys, what gi y'all wearing? I only have one and have to wash it every damn day. I'm about to pick up a couple more so I can just do wash once a week. Any recommendations? Not trying to break the bank

 

[red81]

i had around 5 gis, but my favorite by far was my koral gi. it was so light, yet durable and strong.


padilla and sons used to make quality and affordable gis before i stopped training. dunno if they're still around.


Edit found my gear.

this koral gi was awesome

 

[illphillip]

Just looked as I'll need one as well.

god damn. the conor mcgregor effect is staggering. 

happy for nate. his family should be set for life with the $$$ he'll get from purse+ppv shares. 

 

 

[dman14]

it took that long to break the previous record

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Brock was a celebrity I'm not surprised his fight held the record for that long

Add in the hate involved with Mir and that it was a landmark 100 event I mean it's not surprising

200 simply didn't have the wow factor on paper that it was supposed to

 

[illphillip]

Props to Nathan ************* Diaz.

Talked that **** after the Johnson fight.

I don't even think Conor knew that Nate was the PERFECT opponent for him the way Nate did.

Dude played this whole **** masterfully.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Honestly at that time i truly believe Conor was all about getting those two belts. He knew money would come in either way but I think he was more focused on the belt

After Nate I believe his mind completely switched to making money

 

[illphillip]

I agree. It's just crazy that Nate had the vision since the Johnson fight and the whole **** played out the way it did.

 

[chino905]

Nothing but Shoyoroll Gi's over here jk jk can't afford it.. i do own 2 of them though.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

I give credit too. His speech was amazing

Everyone was calling Conor out though they still are. Everyone wants that money fight so that's where I'm not quite giving him as much credit but he handled everything textbook in terms of the callout

 

[smedroc]

Dudes got 5 gi's??

Been doing Jits for 3 months now. It's super addictive.

Lucky enough to be located at Braulio Estimas GB academy in the UK. Atmosphere is awesome.

[smedroc]

I sometimes forget that its normal for people to have 50 pairs of kicks on this forum

I def need a new one though. My first joint getting burnt out

He was the perfect foil to McGregor. The bad boy image, brash trash talking, etc. I'm sorry but Woodley, Alvarez, RDA, etc just don't have "it." Not taking away from their fighting skills.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Nate is Nate. Nobody has his bravado. Maybe not even Conor

My point was that I don't necessarily see him doing anything groundbreaking by calling Conor out. Everyone was doing it. Of course like I said, Nate did it all textbook. His speech was brilliant

 

[Cashflow]
