    My brother's a Fairtex certified coach and had been training some amateur fighters and just got a call to maybe help Chris Leben with his game. We are totally stoked!! I don't actually care too much for Leben but now i'm rooting for him to KO guys so my brother will look good!

    Cool. Congratz to him. I always thought Leben was a dick head but he's redeemed himself by being a blood and guts warrior.

    That is great, congratulations to your brother, quite the accomplishment.

    Also, it could mean your brother gets to fly out and live in Hawaii; hopefully that is what happens anyway.

    Thanks guys! He's going to meet him tomorrow as he lives in Hawaii. They're gonna have a standup sparring session and see how they mesh. I told him to just keep the hands up and work the low kicks since Leben seems like a brawler type. I'm so pissed that I can't be there with him. :twisted:

    If things don't work out, well, at least he got to spar with a UFC vet!

    Thought he was a southpaw. Good luck to your brother.

    Tell us more about you're brother.. I'd lik to know his height, record (MMA or Muay Thai?) and age.

    Good for him, hope this is a lauching point and that he learns some things from Leben aswell.

    He is a southpaw; not sure if he is right handed or left handed, I assume left handed.

    What a **** fight. Maybe it's just such a disappointment because I'm looking starry-eyed at Wandy/Leben.
