    Thanks Morik! My opponent has actually changed and I'm fighting a lighter fighter. He is VERY dangerous both standing and on the ground. I'm also going to have to get down to 65.4kg minimum, rather than 66.2kg :(

    It's the only way I could get a decent opponent for the fight. They offered me another guy who normally fights at 77kg. :/

    EDIT: My opponent pulled out as "he did not have sufficient enough time to train due to work".

    Bleh.

    That's a shame, but dropping another kg? There's nothing of you man! :)

    So wait, the whole fight is off? Or are they still trying to find a replacement fighter for you?

    Preach!

    Thanks Kandi. Getting nervous now :(

    They found a replacement fighter. He's lighter and smaller than me, but very dangerous.

    Oh, I thought that second fighter had pulled out too. I read that wrong.

    Wait -- I'm 6'2. Did I read your other post right? Is my math right? Are you saying that you wanted to fight at 146 pounds, and now you have to go even lower? And you're 6-foot-2-inches tall? :jawdrop: Like I said, I'm 6'2. This does not compute!

    Doesn't sound like you got much notice... that sucks--I imagine you've tailored your preparations to the opponent, and having the opponent swapped out from under you a few weeks out has got to throw things off.

    I'm glad you at least still get to fight!
