Went to Vegas this past weekend to train with Robert Drysdale and Miguel Torres.  It was a short trip but still awesome.  I got out there friday Jan 15 went straight to Robert's school.  I was very nice, with about 2500 square feet of mats.  That day I got a chance to train with a tough grappler named Sean  Spangler.  We had a very competitive match.  The Next day I rolled with Robert and felt pretty helpless!! He was so strong and so technical that most of my offense was shut down and I went into defense mode for 90% of the match. LOL it was a very humbling experience.  I picked up some great half guard techniques and also a few tricks from other positions.  I also got to do some light MMA with Miguel Torres, some on the feet, then mostly on the ground. He is very slick on the ground and has amazing timing with his punches on the feet.  He will smash Benevides March 6!!  I also trained with up and coming grappler and MMA fighter AJ Algazarm...Look out for this kid, he will be a force in the next year or two (you heard it here first!!)  Saturday night AJ, Robert, and I went to club XS.  WOW, its HUGE and has a pool in it!! Pretty sick! If you are in Vegas, check it out!
