Past-Fight Info and opponents: First opponent was Thomas Forsythe. I lost in 14 seconds to guillotine. Second fight was put on by Matt Hughes and I lost to Rodney “Hercules” Nelson in 36 seconds due to ref stoppage. When the fight started, I went to touch gloves and he hit me. Learned not to assume. My last fight was this past March against 350lbs of Anthony Parigi. I landed every punch I threw but he landed a judo throw on me and I ended up tapping out with 57 seconds left in the first round.
Goals:To get better all around as a fighter. I want to learn all that I can. I want to provide a better means of living for my family but don’t want to work the “9-5 job” to do it. To make it to the UFC, or Strikeforce or whoever is around.
Special Thanks: To God, without him nothing is possible. I’ve done nothing for him while he does everything for me, an awesome God indeed. I’d like to thank all my sponsors, Combat-In-Effect, MMA Blizzard, Sparta Wear, and Smash Fight Wear. I like to thank my training partners at Team Tough in Rantoul. To all my friends that support me. To my wife and kids for giving me the opportunity to pursue this
