Curly Howard 08-20-2003, 07:13 PM I hate that you guys have so many gyms and trainers out there.
BDWHOAWHOA 08-20-2003, 07:15 PM I KNOW IT'S CRAZY HUH??? THE COOL THING ABOUT THIS ONE IS THAT THEY HAVE A REAL RING. ALOT OF SCHOOLS AROUND HERE ARE PRETTY SMALL AND JUST HAVE MATS... ESPECIALLY IF IT'S A GROUND BASED SCHOOL... BUT FOR FIGHTERS THERE'S NOTHING BETTER THAN HAVING A RING OR CAGE TO TRAIN IN.
Curly Howard 08-20-2003, 07:17 PM I was impressed with HOC. I didn't get to see any others while I was out there. All our gyms are usually in strip malls and are too small
BDWHOAWHOA 08-20-2003, 07:20 PM Yeah... HOC is the ****... it's one of the biggest around. Unfortunately it's an hour away from me. While this place is a 15 minute bike ride from work and home. I really like HOC because of the people there... so I still wanna train there a couple days out of the week.... but I'm going to Walter's school for sure too. he's got a fighters program so you don't have to pay as much as long as you fight three times a year. I'm down with that....
DOGGx0 08-20-2003, 07:22 PM Thanks for the info, Martin! Maybe when I'm up there this weekend at Dave's we can swing by and check it out. Thanks again bro. Sounds like some good **** goin' on over there. Are you gonna start training over there as well as HOC?? And by any chance, do you know what the prices look like to train there??
BDWHOAWHOA 08-20-2003, 07:29 PM Wad up Dogg... yeah dude this place is pretty ****in cool... not as big as HOC, but it's all MMA/Muay Thai related so there aren't a bunch of other classes like sticks and weapons and stuff like that. Walter is actually on a plane getting back from thailand right now. I talked to some of his guys there and they didn't know prices but only mentioned that there was a discount if you wanted to fight. I've known Walter for about 2 years now and he's serious about training people. He wants to train people who want to be champs. I'm ****in amped to be so close to this place... and yes... I still plan on tranining at HOC... like I said... those are good people and I still want to be associated with them. just hope they don;t feel like I'm bailing on them. they helped me get ready for my fight so I feel kind of bad. But it just makes sense to spend more time over here right now.
DOGGx0 08-20-2003, 07:44 PM no doubt bro. sounds good. i am a normal at HB Ultamite Training Center under Fabiano Iha, but i too want to train other places. More coz of the training and people like you said. I like HOC coz of all the attention I get from the trainers/ senseis, etc. Plus they have some of the best stand-up artists ever up in there. I talked to Marc and he said that I could just pay him a small fee for the time that I go there to train. I also just set something up to train with Jeremy Jackson a little bit up in Hollywood (i believe thats where its at). My only goal here is to fight bro. At first i was training coz i loved it, now "fighting" is all that keeps me motivated. Its hard to train day in and day out so you need some motivation. Mine is fighting. Maybe I can switch off weekends and go train with you over at this place by your pad. I train at Fabiano's during the week coz its so convenient (a block away), then weekends I planned to switch off at HOC and Angel's City Gym. Fabiano's does'nt have talent around at the gym Friday-Sunday so thats why I drive out there to train on weekends. I would most definately love to swing by this place out by you and check it out. I dont wanna stay confined. I wanna train with the best and soak up as much MMA knowlegde and technique as I can. nah mean?!
BDWHOAWHOA 08-20-2003, 07:54 PM I hur ya.... yeah that's what I'm gonna try to do with Mark... that's cool bro... and I heard about the Jeremy Jackson deal... that's the **** !!! So u going down this weekend??? I'm down to train whenever man... anytime u wanna come up here and train let me know. Between this new gym, HOC, and my other buddy who has a room that padded from wall to wall there are plenty of places to go.
BTW... Boondock Saints is one of the best movies ever ****ing concieved... I got two words for ya....
****, ASS!!!!!!
DOGGx0 08-20-2003, 08:06 PM hells yea. i'll see about this weekend. i know JJ is getting ready for UFC next month so we'll have to see what his schedule is like up until then. I'll figure out something by tomarrow and get back at you with a definate!!
and yes, Boondock Saints is the shiiiiiit! Best movie of all time!
****, ASS!!!
BDWHOAWHOA 08-20-2003, 08:13 PM Hahaha.... aight bro... hit me up with the JJ thing... I'll catch u tomorrow... I'm going home now...
