So I'll be fight in about nine days (November 18, 2010) ... and well ... my nerves are getting to me ... any advise ...

Note: this is my second fight ... and since so many of us are fighting on the card ... we may have some cornering issues ...
I know little of what nerves must be like in the MMA arena, but I am confident that the advice remains the same no matter the venue. When my own students enter a demonstration, I remind them that there are only two possible outcomes. You may succeed, or you may fail. These outcomes cannot be avoided. It is only the manner in which you choose to appoint yourself that judgement can be cast. There is no shame in nervousness, which reminds us that we can fail. There is only shame in giving in to nervousness, which means we do fail.

I know you are nervous ... but I would be lying if I said I wasn't ... I know you've been training hard ... I know you are more than capable ... I know you can win ... just listen to your cornermen ... and just flow with it ...
