It’s official, I’ll be going out to train with and coach Dan “The Outlaw” Hardy in preparation for his fight with George St. Pierre, March 27th. I have to admit, this maybe the coolest thing that’s ever happened to me. It’s a huge honor to have been asked to help Dan Hardy prepare for, quite possibly, the biggest fight of his career. I’m going to do everything in my power to see that Dan brings the belt back to the states, well, via Nottingham, U.K. at least.

I’ll be returning from teaching seminars two, soon to become 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu affiliates in Africa, just to fly right back out to New Jersey, where Dan is having his training camp. I’ll be out there for the last 3 weeks of his camp, until the fight. So, as you’re watching the fight on your color t.v., look for me in the background saying encouraging words and shaking my fist violently. I might even through up a little 10th Planet gang sign or 2. While I’m out in NJ, I’m going to try and keep a little vblog, to document the experience.

It’s been an amazing 2010 already, I can’t wait to see what the future has in store for me the rest of the year. I’m very thankful for the 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu family, Eddie, and The Burbank Crew. I’ve received so much support from everyone, thanks to everybody for helping out!

Somebody sent me a link to several videos showing supposed MMA expert Joe Rogan and his Jiu Jitsu instructor Eddie Bravo smoking weed, and advocating its usage. Bravo says people have been brainwashed into thinking that smoking pot makes you stupid. I ask you, allowing yourself to be video taped smoking pot, isnt that a stupid act? Did they have a designated driver that evening? Do they both have medical prescriptions for marijuana? Bravo also says that police are brainwashed. If marijuana is illegal, or if people are using it illegally, shouldnt the police do their job and arrest them if thats their job?

Why doesnt the NFL have marijuana advertisers? You cant watch a game and not see Budweiser commercials, and advertisements. Is the NFL brainwashed too? Why do corporations drug test new employees for marijuana? Are they all brainwashed?

“Or are the answer to these questions is that they all know that marijuana is a drug, and without a doctors supervision it can be harmful.

And finally, is it appropriate to have a commentator for the UFC who has a personnel agenda which might influence fans, especially fans who may abuse marijuana? Is this what Dana White wants the UFC to represent, the usage of pot?

If Joe Rogan publicly rejects his behavior, if hes still advocating smoking pot, then there is no problem. But if he still harbors promoting an act which is criminal in some States I say he shouldnt be associated with what is supposed to be a sport defined by physical discipline, and rules.”

Fight_Net Radio and ProfFightNetwork have always suggested a fight between UFC commentator Joe Rogan and ProfightNetworks, Chris Greenman. FNRs Lee Honish describes that both of these guys have similar egos and fighting pedigrees that should be tested front and center for a charity event. In this video, Eddie Bravo describes Joe Rogan’s strengths and guard weaknesses, and ProFightNetwork offers its willingness for this potential fight.

@ 4:14 of the video, Joe drinks to his health. For more info on everybody’s favorite UFC commentator, check out his website @ www.joerogan.net
