Last night Tim and I joined my family at the Odeum
Sports and Expo Center in Villa Park. My older brother
Patrick was fighting in a MMA charity match CFD vs CPD. Pat is
a 3rd generation Chicago Fireman for 16 + years.
When the MC announced Patrick's name the crowd went wild,
everyone loves the fireman. When the police officer was announced
the crowd booed. He took it all in stride as it's wasn't personal.
As always my dad is there to cheer on his kids
He looks damn good for a 72 year old man
We had a VIP table smack dab in front of the cage
My brother arms were huge, in the course of his training he
lost 30+ lbs and is almost all muscle. Not bad for a 47 year old
It was really hard for me to watch, it's a horrendous
feeling to watch a loved one get hit. I did have to choke back tears
a few times
It was a close fight, but unfortunately CPD came out on top.
Just look at their poor faces...it says it all
It's a young mans sport and
God bless both of them
I was so proud of my brother to get in the cage.
He's a winner in my book!
