Fairtex SF days!! Pre Team Skrap Pack El Niño. When fools were taking Bart from Frisco to the East Bay to train so nobody had to sit in traffic! Those are the homies right there!!

Little history for the noobs and casuals.. Cariaso, Valencia, Faber, Castillo, Bucholz, Melendez, Scott Smith, Shields, Munoz, DT, Irvin, and the Diaz Bros all trained together at Fairtex SF in the late 90s, early 2000s!! Smith and Irvin were originally a part of TAM and the Diaz Bros still train with Faber the guys at TAM from time to time. Nate says Lance hits harder then Conor and Shields is actually the most wild when out and about then all the Gracie Fight Team members! Oh, Diaz Academy guys are not Skrap Pack (that is El Ninos fight team), they are Team Black and Team Gracie Fighter. Schilling is not the only top Kickboxer who trains regularly with the Diaz bros as Team Black has Bolanos and Ross on the team too.. Ross has trained with the Diaz bros since the Fairtex SF days. Karim Mayfield is also another Pro Boxer who does work with the Skrap Pack and Diaz Academy guys.

Why hasn't Palmer gotten a call form the UFC, dude is a solid fighter and can compete at LW?

I wonder if Jake Shields has ever dabbled in gay porn. He fits the part in that picture.

For the idiots, there isn't anything wrong with that. I don't give a fuck what people do, but he's got the look.

He would make you the bottom, and I'm
not talking about jitz
