Yesterday marked the first Fight Night event at The Boxing Club, and naturally, I was on hand to take pictures. And that I did. Mind you, I’m still getting used to this whole camera thing, so my pictures didn’t turn out so well. Oh well, practice is practice. I’m going to put a few of…
Happy early birthday!? I think, I’m not too sure what time it is. Anywhoo, I ran my first half marathon in 3:20:52. I might’ve finished backwards. Big ups to the San Diego Half Marathon peeps and everyone that put it all together. My legs are shot.
Earlier today, the Nevada State Athletic Commission banned the use of Testosterone Replacement Therapy in combat sports. That includes MMA. For some time, TRT was hailed as a safe alternative to steroid use, and its use was widely publicized. Especially for the UFC’s resurgent star, Vitor Belfort. Although as luck would have it, his supposed…
Ever since 2008, Coach Caine has been one of the motivating factors for me. I started out training in his Power Boxing/Kickboxing classes, eventually jumping into Muay Thai. I can still remember my first day at Muay Thai. He had the entire class leg kick me 10 times each. There were at least 10 students…

I’m quite sure I’ve mentioned it past entries, but just in case you’ve forgotten, I train at The Boxing Club in La Jolla, CA. The trainers there are all friendly, though they can be pretty strict. At times, they remind me of the masters at Ryouzanpaku, of Kenichi: The Mightiest Disciple. And they’ve all got…
Currently, I’m trying to burn off the fat and build some muscle for next year’s comic con. I’m gonna be cosplaying as Joe Higashi from the Fatal Fury/KOF series. Just in case you needed a quick reminder: And since this requires me to be shirtless, I’ve gotta do this right. I’ve already increased the intensity…
From its inception, SSB existed as a geek anomaly. Refusing to be tied down to the constraints that held down normal geeks, SSB was a webcomic, then a geek website, and now, an all-encompassing site that covers not only geek shit, but other subjects as well. And so I ask you, what defines a geek?…
Team SSB and #otakuFIGHTER send our condolences and prayers to Shane Del Rosario’s family, friends, and the fighters of Team Oyama. The world lost another nak muay today. You can bet that we’ll keep fighting on in your stead.
From the untimely death of Paul Walker, to the life-or-death battle that MMA fighter Shane Del Rosario is going through right now, the world just seems to be full of twists and turns. And all we can do is keep moving forward. While many people are quick to dismiss Paul Walker as “just another hack…
