Training and progress

Since getting back from Vegas for the final interviews for the show, I've begun focusing on certian parts of my MMA game since I saw my competition first hand.  If I make it and if I have to fight to get in, than It only behooves my chances to focus on my competitors strengths. 

My takedown defense has come along surprisingly well in only 2 weeks.  Jake O'brien was an extremely talented collegiate wrestler and brought that skill with him to the UFC.  Since I know his abilities and the reputation that he has acquired from them, I can only feel more and more confident the more I go against him. 

Granted, I still make simple mistakes or try new things at the wrong time, but those mistakes are simple fixes...just stop doing them.  Having the ability to work in a cage in our gym makes me only  that much more capable. 

Damn, it feels good to be a gangsta! lol...
