And so Tim Boetsch comes full circle. Sounds an awful lot like the way he introduced himself the the UFC. Timmy, beware…
Was just thinking the same thing.
And how embarrassing would it be if Boetsch gets beat by a newcomer and subsequently cut?
Although seeing as how this is a late substitution, there will be a lot of lattitude unless something truly bizarre drops…
I feel bad for boetsch didn’t he go 1 and 1 both on short notice then got cut his first time around?
Does anyone know much about Todd Brown?? 11-1 is a great record, but I can’t seem to find much on him
I’m listening to him now on mmajunkie radio. Sounds like he’s got a good head on his shoulder. Before going MMA he did the underground tuff man and boxing circuits, also did real estate. So he’s got pretty good striking, and though he doesn’t specifically aim to submit off the bat, he’s got a pretty good ground game and more specifically good chokes; he says he only goes for the head. I believe they said he was in the Marines, or at least the military and thus his bulldog tattoo and nickname. His true record is 15-1, and not the 11-1 sherdog has him at.
I think you’ve got to take any 205er seriously who is a former member of the armed forces and has won 15 out of 16 MMA fights…
Yeah I have known Todd for quite a while and have worked quite a few of his fights. Very solid stand up with great submissions. He has his own school where he is a BJJ instructor. He is definetly not to be taken Lightly!
I personally know about this guy’s fighting ability. There is a big buzz in northern IN about Todd. He finally got in UFC Watch out and watch him easily beat this guy>> Goodnight Bosch lights out for you bro!!
