Disorderly Conduct: Weight Cut Week 4 & 5

Chuck Giles is back with another blog. He is set to fight in July for Mayhem Promotions

I had to take time off from focusing on this to get everything back right in my life.  This is whats been going on, after feeling like crap and coming down in weight I’m starting to feel better, and I can honestly say that this is the best I felt about my health and training in a long time.  It got to a point where I lost focus on cutting weight and got out of my diet regimine and just said ‘fuck it’.  I basically didn’t really care and just was gonna do what the fuck I wanted to do, but how professional would I look going in over weight.  Looking at myself from the outside, I saw myself being stupid and decided it was something I had to fix.  To fix things I started punishing myself.  Harder work-outs and longer sparring sessions longer on the treadmill and bikes.

With doing all this I stepped on a scale yesterday and I am at 135.4.  Yes I finally got a digital scale lol.  To punish myself and right my training I wake up earlier and don’t sleep. I run alot now.  Which living in the city works out because there’s always somewhere to run. I lift a lot, like when its all said and done I’m gonna have 22’s like big black lol. 

 I had one of the hardest sparring sessions ever with a guy who is just relentless and keeps at me, but I had to chop him down.  I’m so thankful for all the people who are helping me and those who left me. 

As of today I am currently sitting pretty at 135.4, and in the next blog I will probably have pics of me body wise and just do a video blog or something idk yet.

But thanks for reading i love all yall!

Slicenians Rejoice! Kimbo Slice to compete on TUF 10 to prove he is for realz

What happens when I leave for a few days and not check out what has been going down in the MMA on the internets? Kimbo Slice signs on The Ultimate Fighter 10 season!! It’s Christmas for die hard Slicenians, and a guaranteed laugh fest when he loses to some joe in his first fight for Kimbo “haters.”

I’m not a Kimbo Slice fan and not a Kimbo hater, there’s just nothing I see in him that says he can beat real mixed martial artists. A lot of dumb people will be watching next season of TUF to boost Spike’s ratings, and hopefully some where in between when some contestant starts a bonfire in the living room those dumb people can get a glimpse of MMA.

Disorderly Conduct: Weight Cut Week 3

chuck

The closer and closer I get to my up and coming fight, it seems the more things are bound to happen.  The drama is starting to unfold cause things don’t seem as right as they should right now.  While working my cardio and cutting weight I have been getting sick, like having this feeling of having to throw-up, but I don’t throw up it just sits in the back of my throat. I don’t really know what this could be from. Since I have been cutting weight its been naggin at me like a cut on the roof of my mouth that would heal if i quit tonguing it.  Also the more and more I cut weight and get into my diet and weight regimen, the more criticism I get from friends.  The main thing most of them have been saying is “you’re too tall for 125lbs.” It gets to the point where if you hear it enough its gonna push a button in the back of your brain.

Shogun will lose to Machida in October

Mauricio Shogun Rua has agreed to fight Lyoto Machida in October after meeting with UFC President Dana White yesterday. Shogun knocked out Chuck Liddell in April and now has 2 straight wins in the octagon. It’s like Dana White thinks that whoever knocks out the Iceman has to automatically be granted a title shot.

Rampage decided he didn’t want to lose so he opted for the newly knocked out Rashad Evans.

The October 24th event is scheduled to go down in the Staples Center in Los Angeles, which is awesome for me, I just may snag some tickets.

Rampage and Rashad are the TUF 10 coaches

Rampage says "Black on black crime"

(UPDATE) Quinton Rampage Jackson and Rashad Evans will be coaches on the 10 season of The Ultimate Fighter show. Rampage passed up a shot at Lyoto Machida and instead will indeed be facing Rashad Evans at seasons end.

Machida really did put a snag in the UFC’s plans, because they tried desperately not to give him a title shot and then they probably expected him to lose having already pegged Jackson as the TUF 10 coach before Machida laid the beat down on Rashad at UFC 98. Looks like the UFC is pretending Rashad didn’t get knocked out last Saturday and will go ahead with their plans anyway.

Also, Shogun Rua is rumored to get a title shot against the Dragon in September.

The 10th season will consist of only 16 heavyweights who do not have to fight to earn a spot on the show. MMAjunkie learned that middleweights were told get to steppin last week.

Frank Trigg is back in the UFC

Frank Trigg told MMAjunkie that he has signed a 4 fight deal with the UFC. Going 2-3 the first time around, Trigg is 7-2 outside the Octagon. There are a plethora of welterweights the UFC can match him up against. I’m thinking Josh Koscheck is a nice fight. Or Carlos Condit. Or Martin Kampmann, Mike Swick. Those all sound nice.
