Kye 77 Posted July 22, 2007 Report Share Posted July 22, 2007 This is the cut, if I look rough its cause I felt it. This is after the sauna, I was 144.8 lbs This is after the fight, my gloves and wraps were cut off to check my hands as one was more than a bit sore Holy shit,...got down to 155.2lbs using my diet and cardio, then cut to 144.8lbs...it was HORRIBLE...i had two guys that i train with (Steve and Will) and FR came along to hold my hand and keep me in that evil oven, that some people call a Sauna. It was a horrible cut, and i felt as weak as water, but i made it!...but as soon as i got some drink and grub in me, i felt great and actuallt fought at 163lbs...i felt strong before the fight and in the warm-up, but as the fight progressed i realised that i was still dehydrated badly...i just didnt have my usual strength and i found it hard to let my hands go, which for me is REALY strange...he fought a realy clever fight, staying right outta range, or getting in realy tight...i have this realy horrible habit of getting caught in the North/South postion....in training i just use my strength, drive forward, go for a single leg, and then go to side control, but i just didnt have it last night... The game plan was to let him come on in, then catch him with a knee to the face when he shot on me...but that very day, they had just told us, "No more knees to the head boys"....3 fecking weeks i have been drilling that,....oh well, i can always rely on my hands right?...not that night!..lol. So with no knees to the head, and my hands feeling like they was stapled to my face, i had to rely on good 'ole GNP!...lol. I got a real nice slam on him though,...the crowd went mental when i had him up in the air..lol...i slammed him down in my corner, and went to work with some punches...i done ok, then he reversed me, and i swear, we was on our knees, facing each other, swinging for the fences!..lol...im sure it was like watching two fecking midgets scrap it out...lol. The Ref came close to stopping it at the end of the second, and my god was he a mess...plenty of the red stuff flying around, and i had landed some great heavy knees to his body which seemed to let the air outta him fairly... Third round, i was just pissed that he wouldnt come in so i could counter strike..lol...so i was taunting him a little, tapping my chin, as if to tell him "Right here son"..lol...but he was a clever little bugger, and didnt want his head taken off, so back to Ground and Pound,..lol. In the end i didnt even try and stop him hitting me, i just unloaded, and the sound of hitting his head, was failry cool...reminded me of two steaks slapping together!..lol. So the third round ended, and i knew i probably lost the first round, but i felt i had won the last two rounds, and so did the lads in my corner...i got a unanimous decision...and the belt. So in reflection, i can get two 145lbs, but it KILLS me,...i was happy i won, but NOT how i won, and in hind sight i could have probably submitted him atleast 10 times through out the fight...but this guy had been talking so much shit about me, i just wanted him to get a good working over, which he did, so that was good... Im not making exscuses, i should have KO'ed him, i just didnt have it that night, so i went for the next best thing, and thats just aggresion...it seemed to work. It sucks i didnt win the belt properly,...but when i defend it, i will make sure i FULLY hydrate afterwards...there are a million different things that i would do differently, if i had the chance to do it all again, but its in the past now, so i just have to get back on the wagon, and not let it happen again....im happy i went three rounds though, and it was four minute rounds as well...i do feel like i let everyone down though, with not being able to finish him. Anyway, just keeping you guys updated, and im gonna try and post some pics...so im off for some Ribs, ice-cream, and my beloved Pumpkin-Pie!... Kye,.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Ditch_Shitter Posted July 23, 2007 Report Share Posted July 23, 2007 What amazes me, Kye; I distinctly remember, on another forum, a few years ago where you got into a bit of an on line debate with a couple of guys. Things quickly escalated to the point where they were giving it the old, " You wait to ye get to the show! " routine. But then, as I recall, a third party stepped in and spoke for ye, saying something to the effect of ye didn't want any grief and hadn't meant to cause any friction. All very placatory and let's all just calm down and forget this, sort of approach. I thought, at the time, that was fair enough, being as there was to be at least two of them and it was only a forum ruck anyway. But now I see the truth of the matter; Reason you were 'persuaded' to back down now becomes perfectly clear. You'd have ended up f*cking Destroying the pair of them! Ye f*cking Animal! Can't ye get any of this stuff ye do up on You Tube? Take me all night to get to see it, on this slow old connection of mine. But what the f*ck! Sounds like it'd be worth a butchers! Anyway, mate; Now that I hopefully have ye attention? Your PM's all to bits. Please nip into my Profile and drop me a line on the addy in there. I need an english address to send that box Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mad al 146 Posted July 23, 2007 Report Share Posted July 23, 2007 Fantastic result Kye , I don't think you let anybody down . I used to compete in athletics and wouldn't last four seconds with you guys, never mind four minute rounds . What I can relate to is the self analasys/critism/dehydration etc. These are ever present, whatever the sport when you "walk the walk" and if the wheels come off!!!, I think we all carry out a "post mortem". This is a natural reaction, but in your case Kye, you "brought home the bacon". Walk tall and proud Kye and don't dwell in the "what if?", it doesn't really exist and you will be ready for the next one. Well done and take care Kye Al Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest SHOT Posted July 23, 2007 Report Share Posted July 23, 2007 WELL DONE KYE Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kye 77 Posted July 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2007 Thanks for the kind words Guys,.. Thanks Mad Al, its always nice to hear positive feed back from other athletes,...when people ask me what i do, i just say "Im training to be a Pro-Athlete"...instead of "Im a Cage-Fighter"..lol...to me, it just reminds of that Kip guy from Napoleon Dynamite...lol..."Dont you know im training to become a Cage Fighter?"... Well that puts me at 5 wins and 1 loss...i lost my first fight over here, and i have now won five in a row, 1 with submission, 3 with KO's, and one with Unanimous Decision...cant wait to defend my title...it was going to be against a fellah named Shad Langford, but he lost the same night i won, so i should be fighting some guy named Will Joplin instead...i dont know alot about him,...other than he is going to loose his next fight!... Kye,.. PS...someone asked what the title was for,...it was sanctioned buy the KICK International organisation, and for the 145lbs title for the Mid-West Fight League.
