The fact that you went out there and laid it on the line is a big deal. It sucks it had to be on national TV, but that's how a fight goes sometimes. It happens and this is a sport where people get hurt. Nothing you can do but hold your head up and realize you took a chance many only dream about.

Hope the jaw heals up quickly.

Any plans to continue to fight mma?  Or is it grappling only going forward?

Dan Simmler is a standup guy, I have been his roomate in tournaments, and I have been his adversary in tounaments, and all I have to say is that he is cool, and an honorable opponenent.  He is awesome at BJJ and Judo and his record speaks for himself, I thought i say a highlight were he went for  a flying armbar but maybe it was someone else.  i am glad that you guys don't bash him as he is cool and he has put it on the line, which is more than most including myself can say.  Dan, best of luck if you decide to follow an mma carreer, hope you feel better from the broken jaw.  Before any of you judge him, hust remember cro cop got crushed by a BJJ BB with a mouth kick.  Heal up simmler

Just a question, maybe someone in the know will have the answer.  If Simmler did have his jaw broken does the UFC cover the initial expense along with any future surgery that is needed along with physical therapy if need be.  If he can't assume his day job(Don't know if he had one or not) would they be liable to cover his bills until he could return to work. 

I heard he was a fluffer for the porn industry.  He will be claiming L&I.

I just saw round 1 and things were looking pretty good for you, Dan.

Why am I nervous to see round 2??  :-\

Now I know why.

Man, looked like it hurt.

Honestly, you got caught, not as bad as I thought. Can't believe people thought that was the worst KO they have ever seen.

I'm sure you'll be back  ;-&

What was interesting was the expressions on everybody's faces, not from the ferocity of the KO, but from the noises Dan was making as he was coming to.  I think it demonstrated the humanity fighters have for one another. It appeared to be a wake up call for the guys there that you could really get hurt, and thats what it sounded like. Glad Dan was not hurt worse.

Hey,

So that wasnt as bad as I thought, I honestly didnt remember much. I found it kind of funny actually that I had no idea where I was. 

I dont remember the flying whatever that was, I think triangle, and I dont remember anything else pretty much either. 

The fiirst thing I remember was at the hostpital. So, I have a deviated septum in my nose, cant breath good at all with out a breath right strip, I had one on and right before my fight, I was told I couldnt wear it. I wasnt given a good reason, just that I couldnt, so as a result, I was breathing through my mouth the whole time, that just made things worse when I got hit. My mouth was wide open and I broke my jaw in three places. two on the left, one on the right.  It was very painful to say the least. 

One week after I got home to the day I decided I was going to train "Light" with a student,  and I took his back and he pushed off and his head smashed me under the jaw with the back of his head, rebreaking the jaw. The hostpital is literally across the  street from the school and I was kept over night and had surgery the next day. They put two small plates, 4 screws and wires back to keep it shut. For a little over 7 weeks I had nothing but shakes and tomato soup. It was horrible. I lost about 20 lbs and now I am waiting to get the ok to spar and get back to the grind. Ill be back and do better. 

I am sorry that I couldnt have done better, I was happy to get it over with and see what I did and what mistakes I made and where I can improve. Thanks for the support.

It wasn't as bad as i imagined.  You had a good rd 1 and got caught with a nice shot in rd 2.  The ref could have came in quicker to prevent 2 extra shots but, it looked like the damage had already been done.  The sounds you were making made that show real, it was like you were in some serious agony and I was like damn, i hope everything works out for him.  I hope Dana didn't say the things he was quoted as saying because that would make him an even bigger douchebag than i already thought he was.  Now back to my question, did the UFC pick up the tab for your medicals?  When you re-injured it did they pick up that tab since it was related to the injury that occurred due to your participation of the UF.
