for practice is one of life's most difficult tasks. Here's a picture of

Plenty of fists flying last night as Alex "Patriot" Perez and
Joe "I'll Knock Your Head Off" Cota continue to carry on the
Fightcontrol team winning streak at the Fat Cat Club Tuesday Night "FIGHT
NIGHT". Patriot returned for his second consecutive win. This time
with a judges' decision over a fighter from Oakland. Cota, also with his
second win, dominated a local boxer with a TKO in the 1st round. The team
is now 9-0 at this monthly event.

The "Compound" (Dave's house) in Cupertino, CA was the site
on Saturday for the coming together of Guerrilla Jiu Jitsu/Ralph Gracie
Jiu Jitsu Modesto, Ralph Gracie of Mountain View, Camarillo Jiu Jitsu
of Bakersfield and the American Kickboxing Academy in San Jose. This was
an epic night as all four schools proved that Gumby was right all along
-- we jiu jitsu guys gotta "Train Hard, Fight Hard, and PARTY HARD!"
Here are some pics:
