Don't cut until you've fought Travis Fulton and Dan Severn- everyone gets a turn.

as an aside... something i always wondered: how's it work with health insurance? any stitches or whatever that you need, you must pay for out of pocket? (I can't imagine any insurance company would cover a fighter)

like he said, it depends on the states, pretty much ALL pro shows have to have insurance besides in like mississippi, and even there they usually DO have it.

Congratulations on the experience Brother. I'm sure you'll be a stronger fighter for it.

no shit 14 is quick but he hit me just right with the kick, that was not my plan. but you know amir only made it 29, now i know they are world class athletes, and it was a premature stoppage, but i never tapped and i told the ref i was ok, i just couldnt move from the liver blow
