I cannot wait to see Askren fight in 09!

Awesome. Its cool that wrestlers now have a pro sport.

I don't think Ben is relocating to that ATT school, I think he is primarily training at the local Columbia ATT school, so in which case he would not be regularly training with all of those top level guys.

Anybody have an idea as to what weight class he is going to fight at? I'd assume 170 or 185.
