UFC signs a light heavyweight.

6-0 Devin Clark, LHW out of South Dakota, signs with the UFC. Believe he's an RFA vet.

Ongoing TUF results

All up inside

First fight is Amanda Cooper (Invicta veteran) vs Holland's Mellony Guerges. Cooper picked up the win,  not much else to say.

Eric Spicely dominates Kenneth Bergh in the second fight. Spicely was a legit CES champ and definitely a guy to keep an eye on him.

Ashley Cummins has a pretty mediocre record but she's fought in Invicta against some top names. Lanchana Green is one of those fighters who like PVZ has a whole bunch of interests in 20 different things and people argue she'd be a lot better if she could focus on MMA. Green gets absolutely grappled to death in the first round, establishes a range and Cummins is completely gassed. She just poured it on wth knees repeatedly and Cummins iss taking shots against the cage.  Green poured it on and then finished her with repeated knees to the body and some NASTY combination punching. Green was an A+ standing but a F- on the ground.

Muhammed Dereese vs Khalil Rountree. I do not like DeReese's chances. Roundtree is a doughy 205er which isnt too surprising given how cut he looks at 185. Great mustache on Rountree as well. Rountree is just killing DeReese on the fight but that's two times DeReese has taken him down. DeReese has the back of Rountree. He's chasing a submission but Rountree is out. Heell of a fight and a pace thus far. After DeReese lost the grappling exchange, you can see the momentum slipping away. Rountree wobbles Silva with a headkick, unloads against the fence and then DESTROYS him with soccer kicks to the body. JESUS. Rountree should be your favorite on this show.

Alyssa Krahn is a Canadian strawweight. Oh she's got Jamie Moyle. That's..that's not going to go well for her. Moyle was an TUF-N-Uff product and Invicta fighter, kind of a big deal prospect in her own right.

Walked out and missed two fights. Apparently Myron Dennis and Jamie Moyle won by finish. Got back in time to see a close fight between Jodie Esquibel vs Ashley Yoder. Yoder wins by decision andeverybody calls it a robbery which who knows.

Elias Urbina defeats Norman Paraisay by decision in a fight Dana shats all over.

Abdel Medjoub who trains out of TriStar is up now and he's facing John Paul Elias. We get clip show duty as they talk about Abdel cominating Elias on the ground. Sounds like a smother job. Abdel is onto the show.

Tatiana Suarez decisions Chelc Bailey. I know this is a weird comparison but Suarez in physicality and in her fighting style reminds me of a smaller Julianna Pena.

Phil Hawes is up now. Oh my. Hawes has a LOT of buzz and I'd be surprised if he loses here. Andrew Sanchez is up now. It's a PA vs NJ fight on TUF and I'm pretty excited right away. Wow Phil Hawes is upset by Andrew Sanchez! So the top two prospects on TUF were Jamie Moyle and Phil Hawes and they both got knocked off. That's CRAZY

.Kate Jackson finishes Irene Rivera in the second rround. Not much we saw.

Marcel Fortuna vs Cory Hendricks is a true wrestler vs grappler fight and should be a great fight.

Week 68: 205 lbs

I ran my 3rd 10k this weekend. I'm feeling better and better about it and I'm maintaining a consistent pace and time of 1:15. Ideally I would like to be closer to 1 hour but that'll come eventually... hopefully by the time the TC 10K rolls around in April. Speaking of, I already registered for it so it's happening rain or shine, sick or not, I'm running it.

Week 61: 205 lbs

Getting back into the workout routine is hard after any amount of time off. I didn't miss any this week but I had to constantly fight with myself to get off the couch and go run. Even though my body was requesting exercise, my will power felt really low each time and the blerch was trying to convince me to go another day... but the blerch doesn't own me nor tells me how to live my life, so I went ahead with my exercises despite it all and kicked him in the face.

One more month till my next race!

So, I got to weigh myself and I lost 2 pounds this week. So, I'm now at 205 and I've lost a total of 20 pounds. This is so exciting! :D

That is all. :3
