    Please do not point the finger at me for any bad publicity "WE'' are getting. I too, get angry every day to read the bull shit written not only about me, but the bad image what we do is some times given. I have all ways worn mma gear, but I think I will have to stop wearing it as much, 'maybe'?

    I have only had 1 mma fight this year, due to the new strains placed upon me. I have simply not had the time to pursue my passion, hence why my last fights have all been K1. Does this mean I am no longer a 'Cage fighter'? K1 doesnt require as much training for me as mma.
    I am currently back training my wrestling and jujitsu, and plan to fight mma again very soon. It seems that I have endless list of future opponents who want to bash me up. Hardly any one wants to see me win, so who benefits from this? How many times do I have to fight and loose to satisfy peoples hatred of me?

    Luckily, I dont feel this way and Im still full of enthusiasm for mma. I also feel the press is starting to turn around with regards to mma, and In the position Im in, I endeavour to be the best ambassador I can be.

    Incidently i have never challenged Peter Andre to a fight, despite having countless unanswered verbal punches thrown my way, threatened to watch my back and have my legs broken. Its not my position to stop him seeing or speaking to his kids, so please? Im am very disappointed for any one who holds me in such low regard. I am human though, and will defend my girlfriend, like any one would on here?

    I understand a lot of people dont like me, but i really feel the love of those who do like me.

    Lastly. has anybody heard of 'Tony Thompson', Petes body guard? Read today that he's undefeated with 504 fights, coming out of retirement to beat me up. Maybe it true, maybe it isn't??? My point is, dont believe everything you read!

    respect.

    dont have to put your point across to anyone

    I actually find it funny that all the people who 'hate' you and katie etc and cant stand hearing about you, still go and buy the papers and read the articles which they are apparently so fed up about - slightly ironic

    The only reason I dont like you is for the Dream spoiler you posted ages ago

    Just kidding - media are manipulators and I don't judge you through the papers

    You don't have to tell me mate. After all that shite about Katie getting knocked over by gypos when I saw it all with my own eyes reaffirmed my policy of not believing anything in the papers.

    It is amazing how many people have told me they want to fight you in the last few months yet would not have gone near you in a cage 6 months ago.

    I think it would go a long way for Alex to be beating the right people in the cage (mma). When your girlfriend is wearing a "THE CHAMP" dress and telling the crowd what she thinks of them at an MMA show you got to expect some backlash.

    At the moment i think the ill feeling in the mma community comes from the ammount of attention Alex is getting when infact not achieving anything credible in the sport.

    Good luck to Alex in the future.
