early fight

    on assignment in GB for a future story about mma fighting. Unbelievable stuff, and interesting for me as I'm not a fan -- just a photographer and journalist...

      I'm from GB - where was this taking place? Looks very strange - I've never seen a fight caged in like this. Neat shot.

      Mon, my dear, this is on the revered and sacred Native American grounds owned by the Oneida tribe (note the aboriginal chandeliers) in a structure they call a "casino".

      More specifically, it was the Radisson Hotel Conference Center that is attached to it near the airport. I was fortunate enough to get what looked like a ticket for parking somewhere I thought was okay (but everybody on the line had "tickets"). Fortunately, I left the fight before the tow trucks could come.

      Part of the story is that there will be another one in Milwaukee in early October. So you'll get a chance to go!!!

      Ah, OK, I know where that is. Well, not much else to do in GB on a Friday night, or any other night for that matter. Well, I take that back. There are some nights.
