Been wanting to do this one for a long time, super excited. Opponents?
Jesse Ronson would be a perfect first opponent
Will he be fighting at 170 or remaining at 55?
Tonnes of great match-ups at either weight!
John is smart needs wins to get back too a real show.

indeed jesse ronson (me) would be a perfect opponent J but i am signed to the score. so i look for other fights such as ryan healy.
@idolmaker — pure genius !
@ Robin and …Leon, I am always right where the beef IS…. People always ask “where’s the beef?” and answer “right here”… Another question sometimes ask is “are you vegan?” and then if they aren’t I say “well then I am sure you love THE BEEF” (baby)<depending on male or female… lol sorry I am ranting because I painted my house today and I am a massage therapist(rmt) and sometimes in the mma game. But happy to say vodka and soda is just wonderful sometimes. oooooops…. I am very happy to have John in the AFC. I love not flying and having my best friend come home(i bought a house 5 houses down from his childhood house fyi lol), PS there WILL BE BEEF!!! I think topmmanews is best site on net… LOVE YOU all now back to snl #ilovesaturday
ALL BEEF!!! ALL DAY!!! (and night)
oh and before bed I would like to reminisce(spelling) My first fight was in 1999.I faught Dan Shenk lost via arm bar I wouldn’t tap broke my elbow… was good war prior… John also faught jeremy edgerton (i think) John mounted him and threw 130 pounches from top (in 50seconds). I knew John was special and nothing makes friends like going to war together. John returning to where he will retire to, is a godsend!!! Good night and “BEEF be with you!!”
