Day 4, weigh ins


(Patricky yesterday, initiating the "torture")

Fourth day on the trip, and I was all nervous because of Patricky's weight cut. Patricio told me to let he wake up by the time he felt like doing it, and I was starting to wonder if he would have time to properly cut the weight.

All my worries were for nothing. Patricky woke up by 1 PM and one hour later he was on weight. We left for the weigh ins at 3 PM, had some paperwork to do, medical tests (why the hell does a fighter has to go trough medical tests if he does all that to have his license?), and then the weigh ins.

Everything went fine, I was able to properly translate what Patricky said and I even received complimments from the Bellator crew. That was pretty good, because I was a little insecure.

Oh, Patricky's staredown with Imada was pretty intense, he was very confident and people were impressed with him.

After the weigh ins there was the rules meeting and from there we went trough the casino after some place to eat. We ate at a restaurant that had food from several countries, and also took pictures near a lamborghinni.


(end of torture, time to eat)



Talking about the Bellator guys, what amazing people they are. Got to meet everyone, even Bjorn, and have nothing but good things to say about them.

Jimmy Smith is a very funny guy, we got the bus from the Casino to the hotel with him and had nothing but laughs.

When we got back to the hotel Patricio and I went to train on the fitness room, he said he's going to make me get rid of my belly, so I'll have him fulfill this promise haha.

-Unfortunelly I won't be able to put the video of the brothers on the snow for the first time in their lifes because I brought the wrong cable of the camera, and can't upload it to my notebook. I will probably buy one when we get to San Diego after Patricky's fight.

-Oh, blogging when you're tired does not work well. I wouldn't hire myself.
