Actually, first few fights! This Saturday I'm entering a muay thai point kickboxing tournament. We'll all be wearing gloves, headgear and shin gaurds. I'm going to fight in the weight class of 150-165lb. Right now I'm 169lbs so I only need to cut 4lbs by friday night and the other 1-2lbs will get out of me over night! It's crazy, ever since the new year, I've lost 23lbs !! I haven't been in this good of shape, condition, strength ever..
I can't wait! I have hella homies, my capoeira fam bam, homegirls, 1 in particular I'm really excited for =) and even my family are all coming out just to see me fight! I have a homegirl who said she's gonna bring a sign that says " BERTO IS EPIC !" haha..I don't know about all that, but I'd still appreciate the love! Can't wait! Hope I kick ass this Saturday! I've been waiting for this moment for 5 years! I wonder what 5 years of capoeira training will do for me as a muay thai fighter. I've only trained MMA for the past 3 months but my coach says I learn extremely fast and have great kicks. So many things to do these next couple weeks..I can't wait =).
Here's the information for the muay thai tournament this Saturday:
Date: Saturday, May 1, 2010
Where: Inderkum High School
2500 New Market Dr.
Sacramento, CA 95835
Cost: $10 for admission
Starts: 11:30am
Open sparring with MMA rules: 6:30pm-8:00pm ** HELL YEAH! **
but there will be kids, girls, teens, adults, and even people over 40 years old fighting. I want to say that my first match should be some time between 130-230pm but it all depends on how many fighters show up and how long each match takes. But I hope you guys can come out to enjoy some good muay thai fights and possibly see me in action! I'll be wearing my BJ Penn fight shorts and a white tank top =)
