Looks like a couple of great fights, Best of luck to them. I think Burkman was unlucky in the UFC, Style wise I think with slightly different matchmaking his win-loss record could have looked totally different. I'd like to see him back in the mix again.

Dude, what a twisted tale we weave. In the video you saw, during that time period, Jake Paul was with a fight team called Slam Inc. Brandon Melendez was with Jeremy Horn, Kyacey Uscola was with Primal Fight Tribe out of Idaho and all were our rivals. Melendez went on to KO Kyacey with a head kick 30 seconds into their fight.
Burkman was with Team Qwest at the time but would move back to SLC and recruit Kyacey and Jake to be on his "American Who-hit-u" Team, which was when he would solicit the help of Coach Kiser who helped to prep him and Melvin Guillard for 2 or 3 UFC fights and cornered for a couple as well, and shortly thereafter (within a few months) left Utah with short notice, leaving his "team" high and dry.
Jake and Kyacey, looking for direction would eventually find their way to Kiser and I and began building a repoire.
Years later, Melendez would also begin seeking change and a new perspective on the art and would also join our ranks. And the saga continues.

Very excited for that card. Dr. Sick, are you helping corner Johnny Miller too? Or just Jake & Brandon? Either way, busy night for you.
Jake has been running through the local competition.

That will be up to Johnny and Khuen Khru Will. But he had one Hell of a session this morning. So did Jake Paul. His Saturdays have been nothing short of tortureous. He's a trooper for sure. Now if I can just get his technical side up to speed.
