That's right, yesterday my girl and myself drove up to Cincinnati for Randy's book signing. I will post pictures later, seeing as she is the one with the camera.
Anyways, it was a blast and meeting Randy in person was more surreal than I thought it would be. He is about as tall as I thought, but he definitely looked skinnier to me in person. While looking at him I was like that's a nice looking grandpa. When he signed my book he was very quiet spoken (everyone has always said that now I know) and came across very respectful. When we did our picture he freaking squeezed me in. Well he has more muscle than I thought. I had my hand on his trap and it was freaking hard.
Stay tuned for some pics. Not many though so do not get your hopes up.

Not to cross train cripples the martial arts, without it you can become a mechanic, but never an artist.

Gold medals aren't really made of gold. They're made of sweat, determination, and a hard-to-find alloy called guts.

You and me both, why would you want to see him in a movie that will more than likely suck anyway!! although the 1st wasn't that bad actually.
I just want to see Randy lose a HW fight to show he is NOT best HW fighter of all time...respect him alot for his fights against good guys but his skills are not where other top HW's are!!
Speaking of MMA guys in moveis did anyone see Tito is Crow 4 - Wicked Prayer.
He was bloody aweful as was the film..... Love all mma, and big UFC fan but I do miss Pride.
Big Supporter or British MMA so a shout out to Micheal Bisbing, Paul Taylor and Dan Hardy who are representing well and makeing their mark in the UFC!!!

I guess having a pink belt must make you think that way.
