NO!!!!I'm so pissed earlier today for loosing in a bidding of an item(Koral Brazilian jiu-jitsu competition white gi) in ebay. Here's the url of the item <br /><br />http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260468169544<br /><br />2 days ago it started at 0.99 cents so I keep an eye for the item. Then earlier the last bid was $106. So I just waited for the last 10 seconds to bid. In the last 5 seconds, I placed my bid for $107. So I thought I win because the regular price of the gi in the market is $175. When the bidding is finished, I didn't win! WHAT THE? Another bidder in ebay won the gi at the price of $109.50!!! Damn its so cheap for a high quality gi!

All I want to watch was the fight between one of my favorite Brazilian Jiu jitsu practitioner Shinya Aoki against Vitor Ribeiro. Shinya improved his striking ability by giving several kicks against Vitor. The only time they went to ground fight was on the last 2 minutes of the 2nd round. Shinya pulled rubber guard and gave Vitor a hard time to use his Brazilian Jiu jitsu game against Shinya.In the end Shinya won via unanimous decision. In the welterweight grand prix, Marius Zaromskis from Lithunia cosplayed Akuma from street fighter for the 2nd time and he defeated Hayato Sakurai in the semi final round via KO and beat Jason high via KO in the final round.Chi Riverahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00542745500220953637noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5652087362247924800.post-14171012478056838372009-07-12T20:29:00.000-07:002009-07-20T20:58:57.088-07:00UFC 100<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/f/ff/UFC100lesnarmir.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 246px;" src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/f/ff/UFC100lesnarmir.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br />UFC made history by having a greatest ppv event. The UFC 100 have a lot of great fights. Now lets start on the first match<br /><br />Yoshihiro Akiyama def. Alan Belcher via split decision<br /><br />-The 2 guys have a lot of respect with each other. Aki used his entourage song(time to say goodbye)and a lot of people are shocked. Well US MMA fans are not used in calm songs as a entourage songs unlike in Asian countries especially. Aki used that song on K1-Heroes and Dream. The first round was great. Aki threw some good punches and high kicks then he was knocked down by Alan and the game went to grappling match. After 3 rounds, Aki won via controversial split decision. For me it wasn't controversial. I believe Aki won 1st and 2nd round! Nice win look alike lol! XD<br /><br /><br />Dan Henderson def. Mike Bisping via KO(3:20 of round 2)<br />- I like this fight as well. During the TUF 9, Bisping talked a lot of crap on Hendo and talked a lot of crap and talked a lot of crap. When Hendo Knocked out Bisping, Bisping was Knockout cold and he don't know what happened next! Bad karma to you cocky crap!!!<br /><br />Georges St. Pierre def. Thiago Alves via unanimous decision<br />- GSP's atama gi rocks! haha. GSP said that his fight against Thiago is his toughest challenge. GSP dominated the whole 5 rounds. Sick Takedowns then side control and go for ground and pound. That's what GSP did the whole time. After the 4th round. GSP got injured(groin) but managed to finish the fight and still the UFC welterweight champion.<br /><br />Brock Lesnar def. Frank Mir via TKO(1:48 of round 2)<br />- Actually I don't like this two but as we all know after Brock beat Frank, Brock acted like a douche bag and acted like a WWE superstar. Brock Lesnar flipped off an aggressive crowd of people who had been booing the decision He made a disparaging comment about the PPV's primary sponsor Bud Light, claiming they "won't pay me nothin'" (sic), promoting Coors Light instead. He then implied he would have sex with his wife after the show. He would later apologize for his actions in his post-fight press conference, where he held a bottle of Bud Light. For me, he will always be a CHUMP! He's not a martial artist. Its better for him to go back to WWE. I just hope Shane Carwin will knock him out cold or he'll be submitted and KO cold by fedor. I hope Fedor will sign in UFC someday.<br /><br />Jon Fitch def. Paulo Thiago via unanimous decision<br />- I was probably shocked that this fight is the last fight on UFC 100. People probably didn't care to watch the fight but I still watched the fight. Fitch showed improvements on his game and he wants to fight GSP soon.Chi Riverahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00542745500220953637noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5652087362247924800.post-4555816474465006812009-06-28T20:33:00.000-07:002009-06-28T20:36:26.759-07:00Mission Submission tournamentYesterday I had my 1st Brazilian Jiu Jitsu tournament.

I asked some advice on my weakness. Some of my weaknesses in Jiu Jitsu is when I'm on the top of my opponent. So this is her advice to me<br /><br /><br /><br />there are two types... small man and big man jiujitsu.. Asians usually play small man because of their size and swiftness in defense. I personally play big man despite my size because I would rather impose my game than be the one on the bottom defending...<br /><br /><br />they say... that when you're defending, you're losing... but hey, some people are really good at defending so if playing on the ground is what you're good at, then hone the skill but the problem for you is when your opponent also plays on the ground and doesn't like playing on top. This will be the time your top game skills need to come in...<br /><br />the only way you can get good at your top game is to keep training moves from the top.... that's all... just train.<br /><br />So experience is the key to improve my game.

No date but the day before the Valentine's day, I talked to my special someone and I she told me that she's in Bicol on Valentine's day! So I tell her to take care of herself and I sent her a bouquet of roses and she saw the bouquet after Valentine's day. Ok lang at least napakita ko ulit sa kanya kung gaano siya ka-special sa buhay ko. Now back to Marines, why I'm with the Marines? I was invited by a recruiter to join them on their tour on Marine Museum and Marine Corps base in Quantico Virginia(1 hour from my place) I saw some guns,planes and katanas from 1800's in the museum. When we arrived in the base, we ate a MRE(meal- ready to eat). The heater inside the MRE is so cool! haha. After that we went to the military police office and I saw some wonderful Rifles(M4 carbine) and handguns(Beretta)Chi Riverahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00542745500220953637noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5652087362247924800.post-72860177097946069692009-02-08T00:01:00.000-08:002009-02-08T00:13:53.006-08:00R.I.P Helio Gracie<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.budovideos.com/images/covers/4092.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 267px;" src="http://www.budovideos.com/images/covers/4092.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br />This past Thursday(January 29,2009) Grandmaster Helio Gracie died in the morning on his sleep in Rio De Janeiro Brazil. He has a 10th degree red belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and 6th dan(Rokudan) red and white belt in Judo. "I created a flag from the art's dignity. I oversee the name of my family with affection and nerves of blood" were his last words. I feel sad for the Gracie family even if I'm a newbie in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu because I just returned in the world of martial arts(MMA to be specific) and I just read some teachings of Grandmaster Helio in some of the books and videos. Grandmaster Helio Gracie was regarded as the creator of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, also known as Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. His legacy will never ever fade in the history of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and MMA.Chi Riverahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00542745500220953637noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5652087362247924800.post-40135941632311814292009-02-05T16:20:00.000-08:002009-02-05T16:37:32.292-08:00Dental surgeryIt happened on January 30th in VCU-Dentistry building.

After the surgery, me&my mom went to a drugstore to buy a medicine for the swelling and pain,when we got there I feel the pain already and I feel so cold.After that I just lye down on my bed,took my medicine and slept. Right now I feel ok, although I can't train MMA for 2 more weeks. After 2 weeks, I will push myself to the limit on training to improve my game.Chi Riverahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00542745500220953637noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5652087362247924800.post-12069684687814958352009-02-05T16:13:00.001-08:002009-02-05T16:20:07.573-08:00GSP won by TKOWhen the time I'm watching UFC 94, there's a lot of great fights like the first fight(Nate Diaz vs. Clay Guida), then the match before the main event(Thiago Silva vs. Lyoto Machida) was so exciting. Both undefeated and have a 13-0 MMA record each. Before the 1st round ended, Lyoto ground and pounded Thiago for the win then Lyoto asked the crowd if he deserves a title shot and the people responded yes.For me, he deserves a title shot. Then the main event(GSP vs. Penn). Bj Penn won the 1st round, but after that GSP dominated the fight against Penn. Penn looked so tired after the 2nd round. Even there's a controversial issue about the vaseline against GSP, for me the vaseline isn't a big deal because as I watched the fight, GSP REALLY dominated on 2nd up to the last round. What Bj penn did was to avoid the punches of GSP. I like both fighters but GSP won. Congratulations GSPChi Riverahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00542745500220953637noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5652087362247924800.post-46039030048137586482009-01-31T16:49:00.001-08:002009-01-31T17:17:33.804-08:00UFC 94: St. Pierre vs. Penn 2<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/7/72/94poster.jpg/200px-94poster.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 251px;" src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/7/72/94poster.jpg/200px-94poster.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><br />This is the most anticipated rematch in the UFC history. UFC lightweight champ Bj "The Prodigy" Penn moves back to 170lbs(welterweight) to avenge a 2006 loss on the current Welterweight champion Georges "Rush" St. Pierre. Also undefeated fighters Lyoto The Dragon" Machida takes on Thiago Silva. Both fighters have a 13-0 MMA record and tonight one will remain undefeated and one will suffer a 1st loss. For the first time, I will not be on Penn or GSP side because Penn is my favorite Lightweight fighter in UFC while GSP is my favorite Welterweight fighter in UFC. So may the best fighter wins.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/e/e6/UFC_94_Special_Edition_Poster.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 208px; height: 300px;" src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/e/e6/UFC_94_Special_Edition_Poster.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><br /><object width="480" height="295"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/3KBsPlRLY1M&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/3KBsPlRLY1M&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="295"></embed></object>(UFC 94 weigh-ins)<br /><br />As you can see on the video Akihiro "the Afro" Gono is going to fight Jon Fitch on the preliminary card.
