Thankfully i just make the age bracket ;)

[the jabroni]

he looks a bit like Lee Holdsworth actually

[trev01]

Is there a weight tolerance ?

the weight categories are strictly adhered to.

[the jabroni]

[trev01]

so 73.1kg will be in the 73 - 79 bracket?

exactly :)

[Skeldon]

Jamie are you going? This is Tapout lol. Think me and my mate will be going.

[Jamie Taylor]

Ha, hows things Jack ? If I do go I will be just supporting Rich, I havent done any grappling for months so would be pointless entering myself.

Good luck mate hope you enjoy it. Always a really good day.

[justlee]

he looks a bit like Lee Holdsworth actually

[matt the wrecking machine]

Rich you cheeky bastard lol, my hair is much better!

[the jabroni]

No way lee, his texan style beats you died middle grey tuft anyday mate

[Jamie Taylor]

Fuckin hell Rich, he actually looks scarily like Dave from wrestling.

Look closely and whack a pair of glasses on !!!

[Firebird]

trev01, i sent you an email to register my details for the comp. Gary Furlong u79kg adv.

Did you get it? is this all i need to register and then pay on the day?

Let me know so i can sort something out.

Cheers

[the jabroni]

hahaha!
It could be mate, but to be honest i think overall it looks like Lee, hence his new nickname Lee Valentine.......plus he seems to like it as well so we may as well call him it eh?

[Jamie Taylor]

Lee ' The Hammer ' Holdsworth.

Quite a ring to it, they're both the same age as well.

Apologies Trev for kind of hi-jacking the thread and turning it into a slate Lee thread.

Suppose it keeps it bumped though eh ?

TTT for the grapplefit championships !

[the jabroni]

We should set up a seperate thread.....


Put a few pictures up and debate whether to call him

Lee Valentine

Or

Lee "the hammer" holdsworth

[justlee]

either or, think both are funny. still not a match on jamie too sweet taylor or honky tonk rich tho
