Had a great day of training today. Went down to San Diego yesterday to train with Cyborg (Evangelista Dos Santos). Took a no-gi class with Jake Mapes, who is an great instructor, in the morning. Then came back for a second session with my buddy Bryan and Cyborg. We spent the time working clinch and takedown defense on the cage. We worked head control, crossface, pancake, power-half, all the classics!
It was beyond fun getting to share Dirty Wrestling with Cyborg as well as learning from him. Considerably bigger and better then me Cyborg was still a great training partner and I cant say enough about how genuine he is, the language barrier made very little difference as we both speak grappling.
He is preparing for a fight in Strikeforce on the 10th, my tournament is on the 11th, so it is a little late in both of our camps but more wrestling workouts are in the works and this gonna be a regular road trip.
I got cleaned up and began the long drive home to the O.C. with a ton of new bruises and a huge grin.
