He's got to be younger than me.
It's hard to come back from that shit.
How do you feel about older guys like me, Rashad, and Mark Coleman, all of us fighting in a league with other older guys instead of putting us with younger people?
Yeah, we still love it, we still love to fight.
But we just can't compete with the... Youngest guys.
Yeah, Father Time is undefeated, bro.
Man, when I get out of bed in the morning, like the first couple steps, I'm like, damn, was it worth it?
Yeah, I already had an injury coming into MMA.
My knee was fucked.
I fucked my knee up in college, but I haven't had too much.
Man, my teammates, half of my teammates wasn't coming to practice, and the coach was like...
Since you guys not getting your teammates here.
You got to work out for them So they used to pair us up and groups of tools and make us do 15 push-ups other guy do 15 reps then you go all the way down to five right and After two weeks of that we got so strong we was bottoming out on everything, right?
So I'm wrestling one of my teammates and he tried to get a single leg on me and this right when I was getting better at rest I was getting good.
It's hard to take me down and
and everything, I was in Lassen Junior College, and the wrestlers there, they was like the rejects, but they was all good.
They had to come there first, then they went to D1 schools, right?
And I'm wrestling this guy, and he's still my friend to this day, he get mad when I tell this story.
He was going in for a single, and I wasn't giving it up, because everybody was talking shit to me.
