FIGHT WEEK

Posted by Edgar Garcia On June - 19 - 2009

My last week of training went extremely well. This has been the best camp I have had yet. I am currently in Vegas. I flew in on Tuesday. The UFC had somebody waiting for us at the airport, that was pretty cool. When we got to the hotel they took me directly to the UFC office at the Palms. I signed a bunch of posters, did a pre-fight interview (which up on the UFC website) and two hours later finally checked into my room. I have been just dropping weight since Tuesday night. Wednesday was the same just dropping weight. Today I did a photo shoot and another interview. My weight is better than it was last time and I feel great. Efrain Escudero is here helping me with my weight cut.

I am ready and relaxed. I cant wait to eat healthy tomorrow. I definitely can’t wait for FIGHT NIGHT

Thank you again to all of my friends, family, fans, my sponsors especially MTX , Aztec Fight Gear and my coaches and training partners.

2 more days!

Trying to keep busy

After my last fight with VFC I had a ton of things planned. The week after the fight I took a trip with my girlfriend to Oahu. It was an awesome trip and nice to relax for 7 days. Ill try to post some pictures of my trip soon. I havent had any fights set up for this month because I have to be apart of and attend a few weddings at the end of June. Most of you know its not cool to show up to your buddys wedding with your face all bruised up (well some of us would think its cool). The end of June is almost here and ill be done with my obligations to my friends and be able to get back to what I really like doing. I love being in top shape and training for upcoming fights. It gives me so much motivation to work out, run and train when i know who Im fighting and when. Hopefully I will have something lined up for next month or August that I can share my thoughts about.

As far as training goes……I have been changing up a few aspects of my game. I have been trying to do alot more wrestling (we all know I need it). I have also started training with a new muay thai coach, Oscar Martinez here in Denver. We went back to the basics and were going to make my striking more technical and efficient. I can already feel the difference in my power and speed. Hopefully you guys will get to see me start knocking people out real soon.

One last thing before im done on here, just wanted to say good luck to Jermy Malatere, Alica Gumm and Danny Martinez who all have fights coming up here in Denver on KOC (King of Champions) kocmma.com

Less Than Two Weeks Away

Posted by Edgar Garcia On June - 8 - 2009

Sorry, it has been two weeks since my last blog. Training has been really INTENSE! I have been continuing my two a day trainings while working every area of the fight game. My strength, conditioning and weight are the best they have ever been two weeks before a fight. This is my last full week of all out training. I leave for Vegas on June 16th.

Efrain Escudero came down two weeks ago to help with my training camp and has been a great help. We are training at he Arizona Athletic Club. Other than fighting I cornered all of the local fighters at Desert Rage on May 30, doing medicals for the UFC, paperwork etc.

I want to thank the fans for all of the support!

BACK TO THE GYM!!!!!!!!
