Disappointed he didn't drop a roll tide in the post fight interview but the announcers talked a good bit about his time at Alabama. Good stuff..

Eryk will always be one of my all time favorite Bama Players cause even though he wasn't the biggest or fastest players on the field..He was alway one of the most explosive when he made plays & it's apparent that explosiveness has translated to the octagon as well..

He has a very good future at this fighting gig. Natal was a huge favorite simply because of his experience and the fact Anders took this fight on short notice. Him being a southpaw plus the fact his punches come from weird angles, he is going to give a LOT of guys fits.

He also only had about 9 days to get ready for the UFC fight. I read an article here Anders said one of the mottos at training club is to '‘Stay ready so you don’t have to get ready." He did that for sure.
Any idea where he trains? I saw his name come up for the fight and was like, wow. I guess he took the fight after someone backed out or got hurt since he was fighting for another organization not long ago. I never knew he trained in MMA. Maybe he can hook up and fight Shawn Jordon somewhere down the line and make it a Bama-LSU thing.

I have been in BJJ and MMA for about 10 years and wonder if I can connect the dots to where he is training at.
