Tonight is another amazing night of fights! Diaz VS Condit is a very tough one to call but Diaz seems to be a machine right now, he has found a perfect formula that works on and on again. I think it will be a super great fight! A good friend is fighting!!! The Renzo Gracie instructor/bjj black belt Rafael Natal aka Sapo is the second fight on the card, it’s a Facebook fight and he is winning his one 100% Much love, we are one!    February 3, 2012
If you have seen TUF season 14 then you know I am a fan of pranks! Watch how Frankie gets his car towed after practice by me and my buddies! Hidden cameras and all kinds of craziness … http://screen.yahoo.com/blindsided-frankie-edgar-s-tow-truck-adventure-28163981.html Have a nice one amigos, much love. We are one! January 31, 2012
Ricardo Almeida is a UFC vet, a BJJ expert, and an amazing coach who is running his own RABJJ Academy! I train at Almeida’s several times a week and after the trainings we all feel like WOW, what an awesome session or WOW what an awesome group of people. I simply train with the best, every sparring session has about 30 fighters with expertise in different areas. The level is very high and as I said, the atmposphere is great! What can I say… Renzo Gracie and RABJJ is the place to be! Much love, we are one! January 27, 2012
Tomorrow it is time for another great UFC event and my good old coach is fighting! Michael Bisping VS Chael Sonnen will be the fight I look forward to most. January 26, 2012
They say that breakfast is one of the most important meals of the day and I have to agree! As soon as my alarm clock rings I think about what I am going to eat. Some people do not have an apetite in the morning and prefer something very small or nothing at all… Here is one of my newer breakfast options (picture on top) Kashi Organic Autumn Wheat biscuits Try this one out amigos, it is super healthy and tastes very very good! Take care for now, much love. We are one! // AKIRA January 23, 2012
As a fighter the days basically look the same and sometimes Monday feels like Friday and Friday feels like Wednesday. Here is how a normal day looks like… Riiiiiing, annoying alarm sound: Waking up is always a bonus, so I wake up! Breakfast: Important meal of the day, I eat something healthy and something that gives me energy for the upcoming task which is… training! Oat meal with rice or almond milk is a good choice! Training: The morning training is based on how far from a fight I am. Every morning looks different, some mornings I spar and other mornings I hit pads or do conditioning stuff. Lunch: I stay away from processed food and that means food containing hormones and strange chemicals invented by a guy with a white robe. Organic is the way to go and don’t get fooled by cheap stuff, it will make you and your performance feel cheap. Rest: Without rest or some kind of relaxation your nervous system and your muscles will dislike you and that means that they will stop listening to you. Your body is a perfect machine but it need lots of love and attention. Small meal: Rye bread with Sunflower seed butter is a new addition to my laboration! It tastes super good and can become slightly addictive… Training: Again… It all depends on how far I am from a fight! Far off I do more technique training and closer to a fight I increase the intensity. Wrestling or grappling is a good way to finish the day off. Dinner: Just as the lunch I stay to the healthy stuff and not the stuff that is made by companies that don’t give a damn if you die at the age of 30 or not. If a chicken breast looks like it comes from some kind off pre historic animal do not eat it. A chicken is a chicken and not a Dinosaur. Bulgur, Quinoa or wild rice is very good with chicken… Small meal: Before I decide to lay down and feel like I got hit by a train due to the hard training I have a protein drink or something to not enter the catabolic hell. ZzzZzz: Dreaming of flying Hamburgers with cheese, beaches with white sand and dolphins jumping up and down with the sunrise as the background! Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing!!! That annoying alarm sound again… Scroll to the top 6 times when you’ve reached this far and you will know how a weak looks like. I simply love it! Okey amigos! Time to hit the gym, If you have any questions do not hesitate to ask. Write in the comment field and I will answer right away. // AKIRA January 20, 2012 UFC on a friday? Yes tonight UFC on FX features some cool fights, I am mostly excited for my training partner Charlie Brenneman who is fighting Daniel Roberts. Charlie has been training super hard for this and I think he is hungrier than ever due to his last fight versus Anthony Johnson. Duane Ludwig VS Neer… Dont think it will go all 3 rounds Guilard VS MIller… This is going to be one explosive fight! Who do you got amigos? Have a great friday, much love and… WE ARE ONE! // AKIRA January 19, 2012
After training with Dave Esposito at Edge Wrestling I walked by my ol friend Louis Gaudinot’s gym to say hi. When I saw Louis it hit me, felt like years ago being on the show for some strange reason. I have changed tremendously as a fighter and as a person since the TUF days. The TUF Akira is actually kind of dead I would say, by that I mean that we die many times to be reborn into a new version of ourselves. Like a snake changing skin… I wouldn’t want to fight this version of myself, I realize how much I have developed as a fighter and how I am ready for any opponent or challenge! Stay great amigos, much love. We are one! // AKIRA January 16, 2012 Hey amigos! Hope you guys are having a sweet Monday! New York is cold as hell and it took me a while to get warm for practice this morning! Listen to internet radio with Real Talk MMA on Blog Talk Radio |   |
