Just before the new year I weighed in at 272, today I weigh 261. This is due in part to my MMA (Brazilian Jui-Jitsu, Boxing, Wrestling, and Kick-Boxing) workouts four times a week.
Today I did some light sparring with 140 pounder named Zack. To be clear, I weigh 120 pounds more than this guy. Zack handed me my lunch with a extra serving of humble pie! Twice he picked me up completely and dropped me on the mat. I have only been doing MMA for a month but my BJJ is ok and I usually can give my opponents trouble or at least make them work for the tap. . .this guy was a crazy spider-monkey and bending me in ways that make a pretzel blush. I was absolutely handled.
Zack was really gracious though and taught me a couple of great techniques. It is pretty clear I have much more losing to do before I start winning.
