Really, nice exchange between myself and Sam Gassman in the finals of Feile. Still annoyed at myself for not covering the afterblow!!! @ Dublin, Ireland https://t.co/afeUELDUKU

These guys are absolute badasses. I've had the pleasure of fighting all of them this weekend and it's been a hard technical and richly rewarding fight each time. Plus, they are so nice and welcoming...except Mike… https://t.co/Npp4LEtCsQ
