About me:
I am a professional MMA fighter with a 6-1 record, with 5 of those victories coming by submisssion in under 3 minutes. I've been studying Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for about 5 years. Better at No-Gi than Gi, have submission victories over Drew Fickett, Gerald Strebendt and Jeremy Williams (may he rest in peace). I've also trained in boxing, wrestling and Muay Thai. Things were going great career wise and then BOOM, I get a call from a production company doing a show for the Discovery Channel. Now I'm the host of a TV show called "Fight Quest." I travel around the world with my co-host, Doug Anderson, studying a different martial art each episode. We train for a few days and at the end of each episode we fight against experts in the style. Yes, it can be a painful experience, but fortunately I can take a beating as well as I can give one. I will be in and out of the country all year filming, but the show is set to air on January 4th on the Discovery Channel, so be sure to keep an eye out.
I grew up in Southern and Central California and graduated from UCLA with a degree in History. Now I live in Beverly Hills.
Who I'd like to meet: Most people I would like to meet are dead (history buff, what can I do).
Thanks for add me. I'm so upset I can't watch last 3 episodes in my country, Thailand. I really don't know why Discovery channel in Thai just end up with Kajukenbo episode. I really want to see last 3 episodes especially Muay Thai. By the way, I'm looking forward to your season 2. Keep fighting!
What's up Jimmy? The Thailand and India episodes of Fight Quest were amazing!!! I think they were 2 of the best episodes I've seen!!! You are truly an inspiration to fellow martial artists!!! Take care and I wish you all the best!!! Please comment back if possible. Thank you.
