Hey guys this is the NEW fighters journey blog written by me, Mike Thomas. I’ll be covering a lot of topics that cover the day to day life of an up and coming fighter. First, let me tell you a little bit about myself: I currently am 2-1 as an amateur MMA fighter. I hold the rank of Brazilian Jiu Jistu blue belt under Master Brad Court at Paramount BJJ. I have won multiple tournaments as a white belt such as good fight, US Grappling, Grapplers Quest and Ibbjf’s the NY Open. Currently, I am trainging hard for my biggest competiton yet… the BJJ World Champions. It will be the first time I have ever been to a tournament of this magnitude and I could not be more excited. Not only will I get to compete in the most prestigious BJJ tournament in the world, but I will also get to do it California!!!!!
My trainging schedule for this next month is going to be rough but I couldn’t be more excited get better. I started two a days this morning at 7:30 am and ill be back on the mats tonight at 7 pm for round two. Im hoping to be able to log in at least 20 hours of hard training a week in preperation for worlds. There’s nothing I want more than to win this tournament it would be worth all of my accomplishments combined.
Keep an eye out for my next blog coming sometime next week.
