Making waves?

jokerface1 · 31-01-2010 6:32am #1

Heard a rumer going around that theres a club in Lucan that have formed a partnership with titan mma in north london, wasnt sure when i heard it but checked it out myself & was very surprised to see that this was true! They had former fighter Andy Constantinou over coaching. Was also informed me that Brad "One punch" pickett gave the go-ahead himself for the partnership. Brads now in WEC. Also heard he may be over to them in a while for a seminar. Pretty handy link up if you ask me. I reckon watch this space, future big players in Irish mma? seem to have a bit of power behind them.

Is this a shill?

I also heard a rumour that the guys associated with the mma club in lucan were pretending to be a BJJ blackbelt when they certainly are not.

Hey guys, all im saying is that yes we do have an agreement with team titan, which gives us access to their coaching staff for the purpose of seminars, and also to broaden our knowledge because they have amazing coachings and there is always something new to be learned. Also we have the oppertunity to train with them on occasion in their gym in London. So yes that part is very true. Anyone who has seen our page on facebook will see that we have Andy Constantinou in our gym coaching, and if you dont know who he is you will see him featured on titan.com. Jokerface1 if you could PM me id appreciate it, just like to know where you got your info. As for the second part, its definetly a rumour about pretending to have a black belt, but i'll say no more on either matter because we here know whats going on, what others choose to believe is up to themselves. Thanks guys, have a good day.

Anyone can link to anyone so thats no big deal at all, seminars are a way to make money so if they can make money off that club 4-5 times a year they will be happy, As things stand they have never competed yet so are an unknown quantity and that will be the way it stays till they take part in competition..

Future big players? why? and thats not been smart-a link up does not make a club great, it will help but its up to there present coaches to build and make the club, who are the coaches and whats the MMA experience..

They may be future greats but that all remains to be seen.

Im agreeing with cowzerp on this matter, were no big players yet, were not trying to be something were not, we are a new club who are trying to better ourselves and obtain the best knowledge available, sometimes to do that you have to arrange to best coaches. The seminars are not a money making scheme for us, simply for learning as the Titan lads are great guys and were more than willing to help a club wishing to be the best that they can become. So id like the rumours to stop and im hoping our lads can get out their and earn their names for themselves. Jokerface1 I know you werent trying to cause problems, but i would greatly appreciate maybe if you could PM me 1st in future if you have any questions, thanks lads.

No it's not. You advertised a seminar with a BJJ black belt, who isn't a BJJ black belt at all.

How exactly is it a rumour?

Cos he was a blackbelt, I gave you the option of his details to contact him for the extra info you were looking for

Actually you didn't give me his details. You said you would send them on, and never got around to doing it.

There is no evidence whatsoever of him being a BJJ black belt. His lineage is not verifiable. The claims of his instructor being a 6th degree black belt in BJJ are false, as nobody in the BJJ community has ever heard of him. The greatest thing about BJJ - is that at that level (6th degree) - there is literally only a handful of people who have one - so it's easy to verify who has, who had and who never has had one.

It's very easy to verify him lineage. You provide us with it, or give me his e-mail and I'll ask him for it myself.
