Made it to Vegas, trained at Drysdale’s first thing.
I left San Francisco early this morning after two good days there. It was a short flight to Vegas, where my friend Martin picked me up and we drove directly from the airport to Drysdale’s gym for a few hours of high intensity no-gi training. Robert was teaching a class on the guillotine which is something I have been working a lot on on this trip, so it was very cool to get some input there from one of the best in the world.
I had some good rounds of sparring. I feel a little tired and also didn’t want to go too hard at this time, but it was still very good. Lots of high level guys there.
Now we are resting a little bit before going to Xtreme Couture for evening training. I may or may not skip it, since I don’t want to risk training too hard only three days before competing at the Worlds in LA. I’ll see when I get there.

I’ve got to ask, did you roll with Forrest?

I love the subtle comment on you getting picked up by your friend Martin at the airport.
Your friend the UFC fighter, some say contender, Martin “Hitman” Kampmann.
And people ask if you rolled with Forrest? Well? Did you?

Did you roll with Milan (top left, blue shirt)? He’s an excellent amateur MMA fighter from Serbia.
