The Tyler Ransom Challenge!

Dan — Wed, 14 Jul 2010 18:40:46 +0000

I had the pleasure of rolling with an amazing person yesterday: Tyler Ransom. This 9-year-old super star was diagnosed with Nephrotic Syndrome at a young age, but it doesn’t stop him from preforming with top athletes. There is no cure for Nephrotic Syndrome or FSGS, but Tyler hopes that this video will encourage people to go to his website and learn more about both diseases and how you can support the effort to find a cure. Please visit Tyler’s website at: http://healingtyler.blogspot.com

I was really an honor for me to have this opportunity. And if any of you are interested in bringing Tyler to your gym to give you an arm bar and do a presentation about Nephrotic Syndrome please contact: Marlon@thebelieveitllc.com or call 323-387-0068.

Hardy Victorious Against Swick @ UFC 105

Dan — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 19:36:40 +0000

Another rainy night in Manchester, England has produced another UK champion: Dan “the Outlaw” Hardy.

The 27 year-old Nottingham native entered the ring on Saturday night with one thing on his mind: Mike “Quick” Swick. Relatively evenly matched, these two strikers were battling it out to move on for a possible belt contention, yet to be officially announced.

Hardy surprised international fans, dominating the fight, and walking straight through the once powerful striking attempts of Swick. Swick’s strikes seemed to have little effect on a powerful and focused Hardy who returned lethal counters rocking his opponent time and time again. The third round saw some ground and pound action with a sharp elbow from Hardy which produced a gash on the back of Swick’s head, shaking him for the rest of the fight. Unanimous decision was awarded to Hardy, making him victorious against another opponent thought to be more skilled by the MMA world.

Hardy and his team, Rough House, had a fruitful night with wins by teammates Ross Pearson, Andre Winner, and Nick Osipczak.

An article in the UK’s Independent newspaper, orginally about wives and girlfriends of fighters, has spawned a heated debate between readers and fighters. One reader commented on the story, calling MMA “uncivilized” and its fighters “uneducated.” Dan has responded with quite the explanation for the sport, citing its ancient foundations and historical importance, and illustrating its sanctioned and organized state.
