Once you are home you may start to remember the reasons you left.

Do you know where they are going to open the new CB school in California? Tell them to do it in San Diego, LA is a shithole(sorry to those who live in LA). Im also going to be moving to SD in a year or so, would be awsome to train at CB.
yeah, i know what your saying, im alright now..i just hit a point where i started missing home alot..and you keep thinking about it..and making it something bigger then it really is..im sure once i get back home for a bit ill be fine again

from what i know, there will be 2 gyms in cali..one in la, and the other in huntington beach...which is an absolute dream for anyone..beautiful area, beach, and training, couldnt get any better

iwas even thinking about possibly moving out to cali within the next year to train at the new gym, and maybe even work there...it would sure make things much easier...i could be in my country, speak my language..eat american food..its always an option, so we will see how things plan out
If CB comes to cali I will try a class out.

Man talk them into opening a gym in San Diego. Once CB opens a gym in USA though im sure a lot of their students from Brazil will follow and start to open up CB gyms all over.

Anything new been goin on down in Brazil? Who are the new up and commers out of CB now that Shogun, Ninja, Thiago Silva, and Wanderlei are gone? That damn ATT is scooping up everyones talent, that gym has so many fighters its ridiculous.

im sure within a couple of years one will open in san diego, luis sorriso who fights only muay thai used to live there and i know he loved it..hes gona be going to the gym in HB and im sure within a few years will branch off and have his own chuteboxe

michael costa, who i thought was going to the ufc, actually got picked up by world victory road and will be fighting in their event in march..have no idea who his opponent is

marlon mathias will be fighting on the 29th i think, the 29th in elite xc, and strikeforces combined event.

cybrorgs wife, cris cyborg will aslo be fighting in the same elite/strikeforce event and if she wins she hasa guaranteed shot at gin carano who im confident she could easily rape in a fight

cristiano marcello had a fight lined up with melendez but for reasons he didnt want me to talk about, that fell through

mario soldado was supposed to be fighting in the last rio fc, but i dont know what happened, his opponent didnt show up, so i felt real bad for him, he was training hard, and basically got screwed

was hanging out with werdum for a lil last wednesday... he was teaching a friend of mine some things...werdum is seriosuly on another level on the ground, the way he teaches things, and explains things is uncomparable



side note just wanted tosay i was very disspointed in dida in the dream tournament....he looked very sloppy, and while he landed 2 big bombs, he didnt look nearly as refined and technical as he was in the last tournament where he beat uno..dissapointing but i cant feel bad, and i have a feeling that most of the guys who left are going to have similar fates
