Last throwdown got off to a rocky start, but in the end we made it happen. I figured we could start planning for the next one

EDIT: I made the dates all after the 11th because... well I don't really wanna be throwing down the day after my fight

Any weekend works for me, pretty sure the same with John, plus I'll prolly be bringing a third, another friend of mine watched the tape and she wants to come play too.

Give me a day or two to look through my various syllabi. I shall endeavor to make the next one (If not, there's always spring break for me, which is March 10-19, and I should be around for at least one of the two weekends it hits on).

Edit: I will also attempt to bring along Steve McKneebar and a guy that's around Kidspatula's size, but no promises there.

She's about 5'3, 135lbs. She hasn't been doing MA for very long.

The next throwdown a few more of the guys from me and Kat's gym will be there.

Floyd, small guy (about 5' 5" 135lbs) but has some tight boxing skills and is a... almost purple belt in BJJ (I think he's been a blue belt for like 2 or 3 years now). He's got some crazy moves and rolls like an acrobat.

Josh, one of me and Kat's muay thai coaches. Josh is like 6' 4" 230lbs, professional MMA fighter (holds 2 title belts and is undefeated), amateur thai boxer (lost one fight to decision in the nationals against a current K1 fighter).

Jason will most likely be there again. Possibly some other people from our gym.

Our boxing coach, Jonathan Ried, was planning on making it last time but couldn't for some reason or other.

Cool. Maybe if they get interested enough, they will think about hosting it . . .

another question, where does everyone measure up, weightclasses or whatnot.
im 6'4'' and @225# are there any other heavyweights down there?

not that i'd outmatch a smaller fighter necessarily, much to the contrary as my boxing is about as tight as a catholic schoolgirl, (all the private school girls up here are pretty whory), and my submissions are lame to non-existent.

Just so you guys know, i havent rolled since about the beginning of december so my groundgame was a bit rusty at this last throwdown. I'll do better this time.

I'm 5'8" hope to be 175lbs by next throwdown, John is around 5'11 250lbs.
I think DeepBlueHalo is around your heigth weight he is 6'+ (guessing 6'3) and 260.
Jason is around 5'11 - 6' 220. So there are some guys around your size going to be there
