First Step

Hey, I'm David, I've been thinking for a while that I want to do a blog or podcast about MMA and decided now is a good time.  I've loved martial arts my entire life and remember really getting into the UFC around 2000-2001 when a buddy and I would rent old UFC VHS tapes from a local video store. I followed the first season of The Ultimate Fighter religiously and started taking kickboxing which I did for 2 years. 3 years ago I started brazilian jiu-jitsu and I am now a blue belt, I compete several times a year.  I watch all the UFC events as well as Bellator and I catch ONE FC and Dream and other smaller shows when I can find them.  I've been to 7 live MMA events including 2 UFC events and I can honestly say that seeing a live event is a must for any die hard MMA fan.  I just wanted to say a bit about myself before diving into this thing.  In the next couple weeks I hope to have my first podcast up with current news and my picks for upcoming events as well as any results and reviews from recent events.  St. Pierre Vs. Diaz is next Saturday and I'd like to have my first podcast ready before then but quickly, for the main event I'm going to pick GSP by decision.  I don't think Nick will be able to handle Georges' wrestling and the pressure he'll put on him. Much like Most of Georges' opponents I don't see him being able to finish the finish Nick and I think it will mostly be 5 rounds of Georges holding Nick on the ground throwing less than dynamic punches with the occasional stand up exchange in between.  That's the only pick I'll make for now but I'll go through the whole card when I get the podcast up.
