Liver Punch Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 The UFC is pretty good at making sure no un-paid for clip exists on the internet. I can assure you however, that Karo looked like a wet noodle. "A gun is a tool.

boyo1991 Posted August 18, 2011 Author Share Posted August 18, 2011 i eventually found one... and yes... he did... sad day for judo lol "ok, well i must warn you, im an orange belt on karateforums!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushido_man96 Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 I didn't see the fight, but why be a sad day for Judo? A bad day for one man shouldn't be proclaimed a bad day for the Art, I don't think. Besides, isn't he getting up there in age, too? I don't recall, but I remember hearing his name a while back...and I've been out of the MMA loop for a while. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyo1991 Posted August 18, 2011 Author Share Posted August 18, 2011 well it was a sad day for the art because he was looking rough as it were... like as in drug up rough. not to mention his judo skills looked terrible.. looked like he had no idea what he was doing (not seriously but he did look aweful) it was sad but still usable as a learning experience.

sensei8 Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Yeah...I'm with Brian on this one. One's demise is not a demise for the Art, imho!! Unless he/she is the only practitioner of said system, imho. I can only hope that his instructor has a serious heart to heart talk with him, even if it's for his future in Judo and Judo alone. **Proof is on the floor!!!

kansascityshuffle Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 I had to look this up, I don't keep up on Hallman, I know of the man pretty well.Him and I were supposed to do modified rules Muay Thai fight years ago, I even have a .jpg of the fight poster somewhere. I remember training my butt off for the fight, 2-3 days before the fight so I'll never know...it's too bad, too . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I probably trained my butt off for 2 months prior LOL. Not saying I would have beat him, who knows, it didn't happen, so I can't really say, just one of those "what ifs?" that I'll always think of. Hallman is a very skilled grappler though, I won't even try to act like I'm in his league of grappling skill. My brother fought a training partner of his (Anthony Hamlett) for his first MT fight on a amature card Hallman threw, too...very small world. Was an exciting time to be fighting in the WA state area, I remember fighting on some of the same cards as Josh Barnett a few times, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushido_man96 Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 That's pretty neat, too. Did you get to meet Barnett at some of those fights? https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
