Happy Thanksgiving to all of my family, fans, friends and especially MTX.

Posted by Edgar Garcia On November - 26 - 2009

I first want to wish everybody a Happy Thanksgiving! Second I want to apologize for the time in between my last blog. I have been training extremely hard for my fight Dec 12 against Damarques Johnson.
Since my last blog Efrain and I helped Cibola High Wrestling with a fund raiser. A special thanks to CB Dolloway and another Yuma Native in the UFC, Aaron Simpson. Thanks to them and the local supporters Cibola Wrestling raised enough money for trips this year.
My trainer Terrell Hunsinger Jr. came back from his third semester of law school last week and it is good to have him back. He has me training twice a day and has picked up my strength and conditioning just in time. My weight is better than ever (even though it was tempting today), I had a turkey salad.

But most importantly I want to thank my training partners for taking three hours away from their families today to assist me in my camp. Anthony Haile, Terrell Hunsinger, Doug Fisher, Bear (Julio), Abraham Ramirez, Joe Gustina, and Jose Carbajal. I am feeling an ice bath and a massage at the end of this week.

Happy Thanksgiving to all of my family, fans, friends, Jason Genet and especially MTX.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL

Humble pie…

Posted by benson henderson On November - 25 - 2009

Today was a very humbling day, morning prac and afternoon prac…it’s hard to go from one of the best in the prac room to just punching bag…hehe, slight exaggeration but being semi-serious…but it’ll only help in the long run, I need it, it’s gonna push me to that next level…BJ is absolutely awesome, his brother Reagan is awesome and an athletic freak, Shane Nelson is awesome, Rob Emerson is crazy skilled and awesome and all of BJ’s trainers are uber-cool as well, I see how much harder I have to push myself and drive myself to take it to that next level…I’m done, peace out peeps…

JAH bless

your friendly neighborhood cage-fighter,
