All,

I write for ESPN Radio in DFW regarding MMA and I try to include Texas-related events/fighers when possible. I'd love to include an article on Aggies currently in any one of the bigger MMA promotions. Any thoughts?

If you are interested, take a look at my blogs at http://www.espn1033.com.

Gig'em,

Andrew Plante '96

He isn't an Aggie, but WEC’s Todd Moore is out of Houston (Klein area). He’d had a rough start at 0-2 but is a very tough kid.

Todd caught a couple bad breaks - lost a close decision and then got caught with a choke in a fight he was winning.

He still has a lot of upside and tremendous heart and I look for him to bounce back an even better fighter.

Yep. I would say having your opponent bow out with a month to go and having to fight Alessio as your first televised fight would be a bit nerve-racking.

No doubt that was a huge step up in competition, but even in defeat Todd showed he belongs at that level.

The guy trains harder than anybody and has a great attitude. It's just a matter of time before things come together for him.
