Coach said "yeah, you could come in, but you won't really get what you want out of it since there's no one to match your size. "

But my mma dreams have come true.

friday I'm having lunch with my bosses and cow-workers when I see this guy walk in to the restaurant. He's maybe 5'5", is stocky and ripped, has blond spikes in his hair, has tribal tats on each arm, *AND* has a goatee. fucker couldn't look more like a fighter if he was wearing gloves. I walked over to him and say "$5 says you do martial arts. so where do you train?".

Turns out he used to train at the BJJ place - good place, learned some ****. But the best part - dude is like "hey - you need to check out the world gym in goose creek. They're getting a muay-thai teacher next month and they're going to start offering MMA classes".

So I'm going by tonight to check it out.

I really need to write something up about local training options cause this **** is bananas.

**** you . You lucky son of a bitch .

I mean .. Congrats and good luck ! Start a training log so I read about your good fortune .
