He just won a fight at FW last week in the Rage in the Cage promotion.

Crazy that a 6’ 1" guy can make 135.

Brian Bowles

Both of those divisions in WEC are scary

lol wot?

Not that I condone facism or any ism for that matter. Isms are in my opinion, not good. A person shouldn't believe in an ism, he should believe in himself.

I quote John Lennon, "I don't believe in Beatles, I just believe in me". Good point there, after all he was the walrus. I could be the walrus. Wouldn't change the fact I have to bum rides off of people.
