Is he going to come back to Waterford or is he gone for good John?

Good job Anthony if your reading this! Great result

He'll be back ina few months. No doubt, he'll be a monster! Anyways, I'm sure we'll see him fight when he gets back.

i wouldn't bet on anthony reading this. he should be back for the summer,it is unlikely that he will be training in tycor gym when he gets back though, due to the neglect shown towards the mma fighters in terms of training conditions. . there is a new kickboxing gym here, soon to have jiujitsu classes running so i'm sure anthony will come train with us and another less known kickboxing gym in town. . .

dlofnep

Yup - We are moving gyms!

No problems from me - I don't really train there anyways. Just a little bit of politics. Better facilities and opportunities for us to organise seminars and have gaurenteed numbers in the new place. Works out better in every way for us. Anyways, I'll wait until Shane secures the deal before we say anymore.

The new place looks a lot more suitable than the older Gym though, at least the mats don't look to be made of sandpaper

like job says once the deal is secure and i have exact dates i will let you know. . until then i'll say nothing, if you wanna come down and train with us for a while i'm sure you'd see for yourself. :rolleyes:
and anthony has travelled a lot, he boxed since he was young which gives him good stand up, he wrestled in australia for a long time so he has always had good positioning and takedowns, what he was lacking was kicks and submissions, judging from what i've read about him in the new camp and from the little bit i've heard from him personally, those two problems have been solved. . . job might post a link to the se grappling games website if he has a minute later, but in the open weight, anthony lost out in the final to the cage rage champion abdul mohammed. .
regarding your question about anthonys character, anthonys a really cool guy, he doesn't get wrapped up in arguements, he just comes to train and does what he wants to do, he is more than happy to roll with anyone and everyone at the end of every class. . i'm sure you'll see him in the ring again when he gets back

Only once that I can remember, I didn't train up with them much. He's really strong. Yeah, it will be good to see him fight when he gets back. He's basically running a full time fighting schedule. Not many people have that ooportunity.
