UFC on Versus 3 March 3rd

"Hendricks has been training with Story lately. So I expect Hendricks to have fixed whatever issues his takedowns were having.

He still needs a new striking coach though."


"The d'arce and guillotine are staples of all of Johnnys training partners. He has also been training with an armbar wizard. I have never really seen Johnny submittedin training though. His shoulders are too damn broad for anyone to get a grip.

Ataglance, Story was invited to trains obviously they thought it would be worthwhile to Johnny."

Someone on another forum that used to train with Hendricks, before they moved to Arlington.

Hendricks has really tight submission defense. I posted some vids of him in a Grappler's quest. He can grapple. He has some submission skills too. I doubt Thiago will submit him. Great fight IMO, really looking forward to it. I am back on the bandwagon.

Funny .......Im the same way . If I do get mad its for a very short period of time then I'm good to go

Yeah, stuff just kind of rolls off my back. I am the same way about stress and work. I like to think it is my sense of perspective, but probably I am just too lazy to give a shit very much about anything. My standard answer is "don't care" or "no preference" not in a mean way, but like "what time do you want me to schedule your appt?"- "Don't care" or from the wife: "can you watch the kids all day while I get a pedicure?" Don't care.

But to me, beating the shit out of a homeless crackhead is pretty damn low.

You must know more about it than me.

In the one Kimbo video I remember seeing he was actually fighting this jacked up motherfucker who had too many muscles to be a crackhead.

^^ well I just read about it. He also had some weapons charges and stuff. I have actually only seen one kimbo vid and that was when he fought Gannon and lost.

He seems sort of funny to me. Maybe it isn't true about the homeless, I don't know, I just thought it was common knowledge.

Like I said, maybe he is reformed. Or maybe his life is just so improved that he is staying out of trouble. But I am cynical about these things. Much like Mike Vick, I still think Vick is a piece of shit. I believe in second chances and all of that, but there are just a lot of better people out there I would like to see catch a break than Mike Vick or Kimbo Slice.

Lol how did you make it through 7 years of school?

Lol how did you make it through 7 years of school?

I put the work in on stuff and I can turn it on when I need to. I am not lazy in life, but just in my attitude. I just don't have teh energy to get worked up about shit or wound tightly. Life is just too short to get caught up in a lot if bullshit. But since you mention school, it is common for law profs to belittle or intimidate 1Ls, but I never gave a shit. They would be like, "Mr. P can you stand up and brief Hadley vs. Baxendale, give me the issue and the rule it stands for." I would just go "I didn't read it." Like that was an acceptable answer... it works. It is like a little seed of doubt jedi mind trick. They are like "Is this guy a badass or really stupid, I can't tell." I use it in all facets of my life. I used to play a game with a buddy where we would try to work movie lines into actual live jury trials. Some of my job interviews have been downright hilarious, I wish I had film. I just say the opposite of everything you are supposed to say. I use Office Space as my script and go from there.

Basically, I just don't give a shit. I value my family and friends, but I have never once cared about my job, school, grades, car, house, etc. I do what I can do (like I said, I do try, I was a good employee before I freed myself from the bonds of servitude, I was an A student), and shit either works out or it doesnt. It usually does though.

Scientist, you are my fucking hero.

Thats awesome

Regarding Kimbo: He's probably a nice enough guy, but it sounds like he never had a good work ethic, or even that much talent. I think he was humble around the guys on TUF because he knew his own limitations enough to realize that he was among people who would probably beat him, and he was at the stage in his career where he was getting in over his head athletically. He just wanted to get a couple more high profile fights to make some money before he lost too often and killed his marketability.

Scientist, you are my fucking hero.

I think he is everyone's hero.

[MMA_scientist]

Thats awesome

Thanks. I don't how many times you have seen "A Few Good Men" but I have seen it a lot. I was doing a jury trial on a dumbass criminal case and the State objected to one of my questions... I go " The defense didn't have an opportunity to depose this witness, your honor. I'd ask the Court for a little latitude." I guess it was too obvious because the judge actually started laughing... Later he made himself part of the game and he would work movie lines into the script in open court. That job was a good time, too bad it paid next to nothing.

That's incredible.

I figured shit like that would get you fined or something.

Nah, as long as it fits and you aren't just making random outbursts, what is going to happen? Theoretically if you are making a mockery of the court, you could be held in contempt, but that wouldn't be enough... people work their speech patterns around pop culture all the time. What is he going to say, "is that a line from a movie? Contempt!" I would have have appealed and filed an ethics complaint against him after I won. Then I would have tried to remove him from all my cases... lawyers can fuck with judges just as much as the other way around.
