Griffin vs Rua 2.

So I don't know if it's really gonna happen, but I overheard Forrest say that he would be fighting at UFC Brazil.  I'm pretty sure he said he would be fighting against Maricio Shogun Rua, BUT we'll see. They've met before and Griffin won via submission and Shogun got his ass handed to him 2 weeks ago.  It kinda makes sense since Shogun needs to bounce back with a tough opponent and Forrest is tough as nails and beat him before. Not to mention Forrest could use a win against a tough opponent to establish himself as a force in the Light Heavy weight division again.

Best Day Hands Down.

Me, Evan Dunham, and Forrest Griffin.

Today was amazing!  This morning me, Kyle and Dwayne made a eggs, bacon and toast.  I normally just eat rice in the morning so it was a nice change to have some real "Sunday Morning" food.  After breakfast I went back to sleep for a little before practice and I ALMOST overslept. I'm so glad I didn't because When I walked into practice Forrest Griffin was warming up in the back.  He was talking to another guy in the back that looked familiar, but I couldn't put a name to the face until Forrest called him Evan.  He had been practicing here the past week and the whole time I knew I knew him, but do you really go up to someone and ask them if they're famous?? As soon as i processed the fact that I was about to practice with 2 legit UFC vets I was giddy like a school girl.  I instantly had to start telling myself to be cool and don't fanboy, but towards the end of practice I started positioning myself closer and closer to them till I was right next to them and I asked for a picture. "Fuck no! just kidding sure."  No lie that's what Forrest said without missing a beat.  It was definitely an unexpected treat to meet and train with UFC vets and Forrest really is as funny as they say.  Before I came to Vegas I just thought famous people were everywhere, but once I got here I was like where the hell are they??? This was my long awaited answer!
