Man, I have a crazy life! I have 2 jobs full time and part time. I have a beautiful family at home and at Gracie Barra Texas, and I try to fit time in my week for everything. I train about 4-5 times a week whether it be BJJ, strength and conditioning, and this past week I just got back to alittle kickboxing. I compete as much as I can but sometimes my plate is just too full. I try and help my good friends with training for fights etc... so I see alot of different things. Whether it be at the gym training, working at the academy, or at local MMA shows that I attend regularly you would be surprised at some of the stuff I run across. During my journey I'm always looking to learn things to add to my game and always run across things that make me laugh. I hope with this blog I can share some of these things with you that will make your journey through Combat sports as enjoyable as mine.
A little side note for those that don't know me. I didn't pick the name Babalu, it was given to me...I really had no say in the matter. I already know of Renato "Babalu" Sobral, and one of the first days training with Draculino he says " man! you look just like Babalu... you move like him, you talk like him, that's your name now, Babalu." So who am I to say NO to that. I would say at least 95% of the people at the gym I train at don't even know my real name, which is fine I guess. So that is the story behind the name of the blog. I will let you be the judge here is a pic of me getting my purple belt last year and a pic of the real Babalu.
