Episode 10

[Sensei Tom OBrien]

Wow! Corey came out like gang-busters. He was throwing Nate all over the place and his stand-up looks great. He even said, in the post fight interview that he may have started to get over confident and he got caught in Nate's triangle. Corey had nothing to be ashamed of. I like him and he fought a good fight. It was cool to see Karo Parysan show up for Gamburyan. It is going to be good between him & Wiman.
Thanks,
Sensei Tom

It was a good fight. Gamburyan won in a very close fight. Manny threw good combinations inside and controlled the ground game a little more. Credit to Matt he fought hard and he will be a force to contend with in the future. It may yet be Joe v Nate.
Thanks,

Thanks for the update.

I wasn't able to watch it tonight. (Still in the Netherlands)

[Sensei Tom OBrien]

Complete,

You will have to let us know what it is like over there.

Thanks,

I was on a business trip so didn't get to see or do much, and just got back yesterday.

I've been to Europe before (Austria, Germany, Italy, Denmark, etc.) so it wasn't anything unusual. One thing I was shocked was how expensive things were in Euro, since dollar has lost so much valuation.

Two aspects that sets Netherlands apart from other Europe is that they have legalized prostitution and marijuana, neither of which matters to me.

[Sensei Tom OBrien]

I thought marijuana was only legal in Amsterdam. When i was in Bangkok the women had cards with pictures & prices on them. They came right up to you and didn't care if you were with your wife or not. too bad you didn't get a chance to see some muay Thai, i heard they have some good schools over there.
thanks,
sensei Tom
