Do you have youtube videos of you fighting? I love this stuff except when somebody gets hurt bad.

Na, no video of me fighting. Back when I was heavily involved it was P.K.A. and K.I.C.K. rules. I didn't get involved in MMA until it was too late for me to compete on a professional level. All of my fights were local and regional. I realized real fast that I needed ground game and by the time Ricardo Mugel was done with me, I missed the window. I was just too old to make a difference with these young boys that heal in 2 days and not 2 months. So now I just teach, when I'm not laid up. But man what a blast I had while it was good.

Although I must admit, I do get amped up watching it.
