 This may have already been done but I'm too lazy to search and I since I frequent this site quite often it would be nice to know some more about the fuckers I post with. I'll go first.I'm 27, from Tulsa. I'm in sales and I have no life what so fucking ever outside of the family/work/gym. I was about 11 or 12 when my dad and I watched the first UFC and it made me feel like I was watching people get murdered but I loved that shit! I take pride in the fact that I've seen this shit from the beginning unlike the fucking meatheads who have adopted this as their official sport of choice. GO FUCK YOURSELF YOU MONGO PRICKS. I never liked Royce back then but I wanted to be fucking ripped like Kimo or Shamrock. Then Don Frye came along and made me wish I was white and had a mustache. I have never trained in "MMA" but I've boxed in Army smokers and I was the assistant Army Combatives Instructor for my Battalion. I fought in an post wide tourney that was alot like pancrase except we couldn't even slap eachother in the face. I got laid on for 5 minutes by a dude who weighed about 50 more pounds than me. Good times though. I'd like to start a bromance with GSP cuz it would be lovely as shit to get his scraps.  I'm 27 and live in Austin, Texas. I don't train, but there have been 3 times now since watching MMA where I've used a choke to defend myself or my friends.I come and go, unlike Garth who totally left for a while.  I'm 34 and live in Friendswood, Texas. I am a CAD adminstrator/Electrical Designer. I started wrestling in grade school and have trained mma in the past. Unfortunately, Hurricane Ike put our office out of commission so we are stuck in a tiny office and can't hire anyone till our old office is redone so my work hours are crazy but the money is worth it. I started going to and watching toughman contests in Ohio in the early 90's and watching UFC and later pride. I've been with the same beautiful young woman for 6 years and we are expecting our first child, a doberman pinscher between Feb. 6th and 8th  28 year old blogger living in Montreal.My only real specialty is i have a big mouth and a decent radio voice. That, and I have an Ego the size of the Titanic. Hopefully i float a bit longer than it did. I started watching MMA as a compromise to help Ryan get a podcast up and running in exchange for him helping me with my atheist podcast. The atheist podcast did really well, but the Fightlinker site just caught fire, and next thing you know, I'm actually having to know what the fuck i'm talking about. Was a learning year, boy!  31. i live in woodbridge, va but don't recommend it. it's a long story but basically i'm stuck there till the housing market turns around. i grew up in san diego and love the chargers, aztecs, and trojans (yeah they're not in sd but were close enough for me). i'm a lawyer at a firm in dc about two blocks from the white house. i specialize in corporate/m&a. i have not trained in anything but would love to if i could ever stop being so lazy. sure, sometimes the hours the job requires would make it hard to train but when it comes down to it, i'm just a lazy fucker. and just in case you want something else to picture other than james t. kirk when you read my posts, i'm half white / half mexican (but pass to most as white), about 6'1" with dark brown hair (though some say black). so just like kirk but taller, way younger, less canadian and more ethnic.  23. 6'3 210 lbs with brown hair and a red beard. Colorado Springs - google Garden of the Gods and then book your plane tickets, fuckers. Got out of high school early because of sick SAT scores then decided I was too smart for college. Now probably going back to college because I've decided I'm too smart to work for people dumber than me forever. Trying to get in with a gym but unemployed. Fuck. And that, kids, is why you should stay in school.  My near perfect SAT score did nothing for me. And now that I'm 27, they really really really don't matter at all.I'm 27 going on 85. I've started muay thai 4 times while unemployed, only to quit once re-employed. Too bad for me. In addition to being a photographer for lots of things and occasional contributor here at FL, I do camera, editing, and graphics work for a variety of productions. I originally worked in film/television/commercial production (my shmancy BFA is in Film Production, emphasis in directing and documentary) but I have a very short attention span so I found myself in loads of other jobs and industries until I landed at ProElite. I was not a serious fan of MMA before that, only heard of PRIDE and K-1 because of my weird Stockholm Syndrome type love for Japan. But after shooting and designing shit for lots of fighters and working on shows and traveling around, I am now horribly attached to MMA and while I don't consider myself an expert, I'd say I know a lot about how NOT to run a fight company.  Stockholm ftw!Not really, and that's why I live close to another amazing city instead: Copenhagen, Denmark. I'm 35 minutes from heaven, living in Malmö, Sweden as I do. I'm 27 (seems like almost everyone is!), a journalist (daily newspaper reporter/photographer/whatever they need me to do) and I look a bit like the dude to the left of this post, but with a bit more Johnny Depp-ness though. Live with my three years older fiancée and don't train anything at all at the moment. Been watching MMA since, don't know exactly, round 2002-2003, at first occasionally and then obsessively. Been a FL fan since I first visited the site which is some two years ago IIRC. So Swedish Guy, you're saying you're hot.Malmö does seem like a cool place, according to the photos that pop up when I search it on Flickr. I am kind of hot, if you're into my kind of look – which, I must say, most people aren't. If you go "woooooow" over GSP or Roger Huerta, I'm probably not your guy. But, fortunately, the kind of girls I like don't.Now, I don't really wanna brag (yes I do) but with every single photo I've uploaded on the MyHeritage face recognition (registration required but it can be kind of rewarding... hmm, I'll start a new thread I think) thingy, Depp is always the top hit, with between 70 and 95 percent likeness depending on the photo. I know it's a stupid test but it does give me a fuzzy feeling inside. Scarily though, Jason Priestley is almost always the second, and Ryan Philippe third. And the same kind of reasoning goes for Malmö, actually. If you're into cool, hip cities like I guess Paris, Rome, London, Los Angeles or even Stockholm (I'm shooting from the hip here), Malmö won't do it for you. But if you like the kind of charming, peculiar and inviting atmosphere with a bit of a modern heritage (depressing working class city transformed into modern-university-and-vintage-and-unfortunately-a-bit-hipster-but-also-very-cozy-city) it's kinda nice. And Malmö has the best concrete skate park in Europe, as seen here on my photo (with the Turning Torso in the background!): [Link]  Just turned 19. In (technically) my fourth semester of college. I tested out of high school and started college at 17. Working on an AA in English, gonna transfer to San Jose State to get a BS in Journalism with a minor in creative writing. That way I can be like mah hero Dave Meltzer, and basically his career is what I want to have when I grow up.I don't drive, do drugs, drink, get into fights or party. It's basically a miracle I'm literate and not dead, if you believe in the nature part of the nature vs nurture argument. And, hell, if you do believe in the nurture argument then it's also a miracle I'm not a serial killer. Been following MMA since late 2000 when I was ten and got a subscription to the Wrestling Observer. I was a big wrestling enthusiast and still follow it but don't watch, I'm a big Spider-Man fan, I mostly listen to rock and gangsta rap, Terminator 2 is my favorite movie and Scrubs is my favorite show. I really like people who are nice, especially girls who are nice. That's about it. ^ Quit posting this crap. Ryan and Jake only! Rawrr! Just for that, I'm gonna post something. DO YOU REALIZE WHAT YOU'VE DONE? [/lloyd christmas] Los Angeles isn't so much hip as it is just overloaded with hip people who are weather wimps or want to live somewhere where they can flaunt all kinds of fashion any time of year.I love it here but for different reasons than people move here for. I like cozy cities and perhaps that's why I like Austin or the Montrose-district in Houston. Anything can be cozy if you only stick to part of it too. Even Tokyo feels cozy to me, simply because I never have to get in a car. I wonder how come r's posts can be commented on and not mine. wordpress apparently hates you esther It does, it does. *cries* Is Mostrose good in Houston? I've been in Austin for over 6 years and I love it, but I didn't like Houston while I lived there.And no matter what Stellar says, the 'Wood Hood was a pretty lame place to grow up. Well, suburbs of anything suck but I think Houston's suburbs are particularly oppressive to the mind. However, some people react very differently to it. I went to visit some fam in Sugarland and various subs there and they all look the same, for realz, like not saying they're all similar, they're all identical. Like, same exact architect and building material in subs 50 miles apart. But for someone like me, it's fun to stare at. I like taking photos in Houston (city) because there's such a clash between classic Southern architecture and all the crappy new condos.The Montrose is a small hood (we include the Heights in the fun part of Houston as well) -- very cozy kind of artiness. I bet it would get old though? It's fun for me because I'm there only a few weeks a year and I can't find a bar in LA that plays good classic country with a fire pit and dollar lone stars. I love me some Ramblin' Jack Elliott. I like Austin because there's just as many hot chicks as there are in LA, but in a more concentrated area. ...and Lone Star! I prefer Shiner Bock. I don't know if that's a no no in Texas or not.
