How will Palhares do in Polaris?

Remember Rousimar Palhares? He's fought in the UFC and WSOF and was suspended from both promotions for holding on to submissions too long. He has a long track record of doing that and has drawn ire in the Jiu-Jitso world too before he competed in MMA. However, with his options limited he will be facing Gary Tonon at Polaris in April according to their Facebook post.

Both men are known for their leg locks and Tonon has faced MMA fighters with that claim before and submitted them. See the details in the post below:

Better Late Than Never Review: All The Phantasm Movies

The Phantasm Series Shows Players Riding Out Their Passions I just recently watched all the Phantasm movies. I watched the entire franchise in two days after not seeing any of the films since I was a kid.

Brush Fire and How I Finished My First Novella

Brush Fire is the first of many stories that I hope to write. Photo by Patrick Fore on Unsplash Some years ago, in 2015 I attended the NJ Comic Expo . I was covering it for this site, to gain experience and get my feet wet covering events since it was something I knew I wanted to do for my freelance work. Writing is something I never thought I would get into, but I fell into it through my love for martial arts, reading, and film. It's why I made this site, so I can write about the things I love.

Usually, I do one, then the other but a lot of the writing I do is inspired by the work I do for combat sports. I don't want to be a one-trick pony. I want to evolve my writing and I'm always looking for ways to get better. Some of my favorite stories in various mediums come from Stephen King .
