Congrats to Robby Slade and Jimmy Collins

Both Robby and Jimmy fought at Reality Fighting this weekend and won their fights.
This was Robby’s fourth fight as an amateur and his record moves to 4-0. We thought this fight was going to be a little bit easier that it was but it ended up being a real war. In the end though, Robby got the nod by split decision from the judges.
Jimmy made his amateur debut but looked like a seasoned professional. In a truly dominating performance, Jimmy did damage on his feet, took his opponent down and controlled every second of the fight until he had the referee pulling him off his opponent for the TKO victory. Jimmy has been a huge help in getting me ready for my last two fights so I was excited to see him get a win of his own. Jimmy primarily trains at Kimura Brazilian Jiu-JItsu (http://www.kimurabjj.com/) but has been working his MMA game at our gym.
I am still working on getting Robby’s video online, but you can watch Jimmy’s fight below:
