As far as the tourist stuff, we took a bus tour, getting off at St. Mary’s Cathedral, a beautiful historic church. Then [...]

I’ve been in Sydney about five days and I’m feeling pretty settled in, so let me share with y’all my experience so far. I got in on a very wet, rainy day, tired as hell. I find it very hard to sleep on a plane. I dozed off for maybe an hour at a time, tops. [...]

I suppose most people who read this blog are expecting to read about my training for my fight against Krzysztof (Soszynski at UFC 110 in Sydney on Feb. 20). To be honest with you, I’ve been using this blog as a way to escape talking about my training. This week, however, I give you guys [...]

Five weeks out. Staying healthy is the main focus. I train so hard that recovery is really the most important thing.
