Thoughts while reviewing UFC 84

- I need to work on fighting from my southpaw stance. I’m left handed but my trainers have always fought orthodox so I tend to switch between the two. I love throwing kicks and punches from southpaw, but I tend to do most of my maintenance striking from an orthodox stance and switching up when I want to throw bombs.

- Machida’s style is awesome. I love his TMA take on MMA.

- BJ Penn is just brilliant. He turns beating people up into an aesthetic and visceral experience. He’s the definition of a martial artist.

- The guys that are my height (6’3) and weigh 205 look hella scrawny which is weird considering I just bulked from 185 to 205.
