Sup Ses just here training with and hanging out with Royce for his fight coming up on New Years with Akebono.. Japan is awesome except for all the trains you have to take. Training consists of running in the morning about 45r min. then a light train at 11am and then another train at about 8 at night. Usually smoked after that but still enjpying the sites.. I will keep you guys posted.
Meet Gary Goodridge today Hes a great guy and finny as well.. Also meet Jerome Lebanner now that is a BIG GUY!!

2 10 minute rounds. After twenty minutes, if neither man has been KO'd or submitted, the fight is a draw.
Royce held a workout on Weds. that the press was allowed to watch.
Puroresupower.com is indicating that Royce stated that if the fight goes to a draw, that he will consider it a victory. Royce pointed out that Akebono will weigh at least three times as much as him.

if it goes to a draw after 2 rounds it should be viewed as a victory for akebono and a terrible loss for royce. akebono has no mma skill. if royce cant choke out that big fat sumo he should retire.

It would be cool if Royce rode Akebono's back for 5 min then sunk in a choke.

"if royce cant choke out that big fat sumo he should retire."
I think he probably will. But if it ends up like last years fight with Yoshida, where he got his back and was content in smaking weak shots to the back of his head, I'll be disappointed.
I hope Royce puts forth every effort to end this bout with a submission. No laying on top of an exhausted fat guy.

I can't see Royce hurting Akebono with his striking, whether it be standing or on the ground.
I see Royce winning mainly due to Akebono's exhaustion.

Akebono will be exhausted after 5 minutes in the first round--if he makes it that far.

Thank you, Stan. It is my opinion that Gracie will take this match. Akebono is too old and too heavy to do much to him. The only thing Gracie needs to watch out for is being taken down and put on the bottom position. If he tries to play guard with Akebono-San, then he will lose the match.
Crushed is not a good way to leave the arena. Gracie would be better off to strike from the outside and wait for the moment when Akebono is off balance, then "assist him in his fall".
If Gracie can keep a tight back ride and work for strikes and chokes, he should win the contest.
On a side note, a few years ago during a wrestling tour of Japan, my brother had the priviledge of meeting Akebono-San and getting his handprint for me. I have it framed and hanging in my office. He has unusually small hands for such a large man.

Hey Romo. Are you still at aitorcanup@hotmail.com? I sent you another invitation to gmail. E-mail me before I have to get the pretty man to put the smack down on your candy ass. I have a few things to discuss with you.
