the full version at 572megs is just how i captured it off my camcorder and then i added music and titles. i then cut the rounds out and saved them individualy at 160x120, mpeg2, maximum compression and it was 92 megs. just messing around at mo, should be able to get it smaller when i learn to use my software. pain is temporary, pride is forever. www.roycegraciesheffield.com

ya wanna do it at around 320x240 (MINIMUM), and get the DivX codecs, set the data rate to about 800 for pretty damn fine quality.

http://www.codec-download.com/

that site might help ya if ya need the latest version of any codec.

what program ya using? --------- Robsco! 'I'm sure your style is impressive on other planets, however, your weak link is that this is Earth'

Have seen some of the clip (taking too long to download the whole thing). Was this your first entry into MMA? Is it a one off or do you intend competing regularly? I thought you were content with the BJJ / submission wrestling stuff, I assume its just the urge to test yourself and the stuff you have been cross training in the real environment.

I'm training MMA style on a regular basis now but it is just 'training' so although we do get 'stuck in' theres always the comfort factor that in training your sparring partner isnt going to strike you 'full power' & K.O. you (or you to him!)....and you & him are not as agressive & pumped up on adrenalin as you would be in a real scrap.

Were you as good as you expected, worse, or even better and are you glad you did it and can't wait for the next match, or now you've experienced it are you content with what you achieved (read the book, got the T-shirt kind of thing) and happy to get back into the BJJ stuff?

Just interested cause I've only ever done judo & kickboxing competatively i.e. rules governed as with BJJ / sub-wrestling and am not naturally a fighter ( I have never liked fighting...picking fights...joining in scraps unnecessarily, etc...but love training to fight and am instinctively okay at it.....quick reactions, fast movement, well co-ordinated & learn things quickly) and I'm guessing from having met you and observed your teaching / training that you are of a similar nature?

I was asked to fight a week before the fight to help the promoter out, as he is a friend I said yes, they then change from amatuer to semi pro. I won that's that, this year just sub grappling/bjj then who knows. pain is temporary, pride is forever. www.roycegraciesheffield.com
