Sensei Tom OBrien is just really niceSensei Tom OBrien is just really nice



Black Belt magazine features Lyoto on the cover of the Feb. 09 addition. The article starts off with this quote - "A traditional martial artist can rise to prominence in the mixed martial arts by imposing his will on opponents while strategically avoiding their attacks." He is 13 & 0 and is on his way to becoming a champion.
lyoto still puts on a gi and works out in Shotokan with his family 2X a week. His style baffles many of his opponents simply because there are not many traditionalists in MMA. He is evasive & hard to hit. He can hit back plenty though & you can get hit by a front kick or a lunge punch any time he decides to throw it.
The fight I really want to see though is GSP & BJ. I don't want to pick either one of them. I just want to see the fight.

Thanks,
Tom
