Great facility in the Nationwide arena and alot of fighters from Ohio. Rich Franklin, Matt Hamil, Forrest Griffin, Mark Coleman, Kevin Randleman, and Mark Kerr. Last three not relivant but it has built up a fan base here...

Mark is based out of Phoenix???

Im not talking about where they are based or training. Im talking about where they are from and actually have ties. Kerr is from Toledo, Forrest roles into town time to time. Those guys have some local fan fair here. People know Kerr from when he wrestled in Ohio. Same with the rest of the guys I mentioned. It has created a local interest in the sport and some local pride. Kerr is from Toledo. Forrest fights out of Atl but he went to high school here as far as I know. Either way its in my back yard and i am hopeful.

True true. Really, even with the title, I was probably dreaming. Chicago might be a possiblity though. That's only about 5 hours away. Close enough to drive and family can put me up, so no hotel bills. I like it!!!
