Bam vs. Wild: Wrapping Up
Pat Healy here, checking in once more for the final edition of this chapter of the Bam vs. Wild series. In it I’ll talk a little bit about my fight with Caros Fodor, then update you on where I’ve been and what I’ve been doing since the fight. Caros was a really powerful and strong, compacted puncher, and his ground and pound showed that too. That surprised me, but I probably should... [Read More...]
Bam vs. Wild: The Birth of “Bam Bam”
It’s Friday, the morning of the weigh-ins, and I thought I’d let you know about the day ahead leading into my fight with Caros Fodor tomorrow. The fighters are right downtown and there’s not much to offer here. It’s just office buildings, some State stuff. Most of the cafes and restaurants are just open for lunch or close at 5:00-6:00. So far it seems like everything’s... [Read More...]
Bam vs. Wild: The Road to Columbus
After a break including a huge trip to China I’m glad to be back at Five Ounces of Pain blogging, this time leading into my fight against Caros Fodor at this weekend’s Strikeforce event.

Bam vs. Wild: Checking In from China

I started my trip in Hong Kong which, as it turns out, isn’t that different from New York. It’s really Westernized so it didn’t feel like I was half way around the world. You can get most types...

Bam vs. Wild: A Great Win and The Great Wall
Back again after my Strikeforce fight last weekend with Maximo Blanco and, as you can see, even a bunch of illegal kicks to the face won’t keep me away from another edition of “Bam vs. Wild”. Before getting into last weekend’s bout, I want to also mention I’m extremely excited because I’m about to get on a flight and head to China for six weeks! More on that in a bit… I thought my performance... [Read More...]
Bam vs. Wild: Maximo and Mud Sliding
Pat Healy here, your friendly neighborhood Strikeforce lightweight. This is my first of what should be many blogs here at 5 OZ where I’ll give you all some insight on my life both a fighter and a lover of nature. As you probably know, I’m fighting Maximo Blanco tomorrow night on the Strikeforce Grand Prix card so I’m already on the ground in Cincinnati. It’s actually a pretty loose week though,...
