‘Primetime’ Highlight Video

Check out PJ “Primetime” O’Sullivan’s new highlight video onyoutube.com. It features clips from his Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu matches over the years. They say he’s pretty good with the triangle. I dunno, just what I heard. Plus Jean Jacques Machado makes a cameo appearance. Enjoy!

Damir Mirenic Pride Bound???

Alliance Croatia student Damir Mirenic has been competing internationally, attaining a 6-1 record. He defeated Carlos Baruch (a Vitor Belfort student) in his last fight. Our own instructor in Kitchener, Dragan Konjevic, has spent a lot of time over seas teaching BJJ. Damir, with an already extensive background in striking (with Cro Cop’s team), is one of his proteges.

Rumour has it that Damir may be making an appearance in the Pride Bushido ring very soon. If so, this will be a huge accomplishment for the Alliance Team, and especially for coach Dragan! Good luck to you, Damir!!

Bryan Edge Wins 2nd Pro Fight

Big congrats to Bryan Edge (Team Joslin/Alliance Canada) for his victory in the E.C.C. event in Nova Scotia last Friday. It was his second professional MMA fight (Seesherdog.com for his complete fight record). Edge submitted his opponent via guilotine choke in the first round at approx. 1:30. He trained very hard for this fight and it definately paid off. Way to go Edge!
