I spent the day at the Toronto BJJ annual tournament and have had jiu-jitsu on the brain, not kickboxing. Luckily, the fights are all on Youtube, so I haven&#8217;t really missed anything at all.

The Strikeforce heavyweight champ certainly isn&#8217;t spending his purses on a deluxe apartment in the sky. Second, he eats a ton! Eight times a day, which is about half a horse.
