Hey Fighters and Fans,
My name is Steve O. Reynolds Jr. Thanks to Jackass and my middle initial allot of people call me Steve-O. I came into this world on January 4th, 1989. As of today Wednesday July 22nd, 2009 I am 6 feet tall weighing 165lbs. I Wrestled all four years in middle school and 1 year in high school my academics forced me off the team my sophomore year. Since then I have not taken fighting too seriously. Every weekend I find myself grappling with someone. (We wrestle till tap out no punches or kicks) And a couple times I’ve picked out dudes twice my size jacked to the sky and somehow I always win. I think my best quality is my breathing and my ground skills. I breathe whenever I get the chance and when I do find myself in a choke hold I don’t panic and calmly take in the little air I can get until I pry myself out of the choke. Please feel free to watch the video clip I created that has somewhat sparked my fight to the ring!

UFC NEWS
Lucio Linhares The Spartans Debut
Martins Denis, UFC - Down here in Brazil, practically every man in his 30's who is involved with fighting remembers the beginning of the NHB challenge between Brazilian jiu-jitsu and luta livre in the early 90's. That 'very personal challenge' served not only to prove the superiority of BJJ over luta livre (in that period), but to capture the imagination of kids who had fighting in their future. That period, which involved UFC veterans such as Murilo Bustamante, Fabio Gurgel, Wallid Ismail and Eugenio Tadeu catapulted MMA and BJJ to unimaginable places.Florian-Guida will steal the show
Michael DiSanto, UFC - UFC 107 may end up being the best event of 2009. B.J. Penn versus Diego Sanchez for the UFC Lightweight Championship is a great fight for a number of reasons. First, Penn is attempting to become the first fighter in the history of the sport to successfully defend the lightweight title three consecutive times.Cheick Kongo: The designer seeks his belt
Elliot Worsell, UFC - Some fighters strike such a daunting pose that they often conquer their opponent before a punch has even been launched in anger. In a sport deemed just as much a battle of the mind as it is the physical, many top fighters have crumbled when staring across the Octagon at their imposing foe.Wilson Gouveia Focused on The Future, not The Past
Martins Denis, UFC - The reputation of Wilson Gouveia inside the Octagon goes beyond his record. As he prepares for his tenth UFC bout against Alan "The Talent" Belcher Saturday in Memphis, Tennessee, Gouveia - a former light heavyweight now competing at middleweight - has become known for his action-packed style. And whether losing or winning, Gouveia has proved that he belongs in the organization, with everything he has gone through serving to transform him into a respected veteran.Big Country Delivers with First Round KO in TUF10 Finale
Thomas Gerbasi, UFC - Roy Nelson came into the Octagon at The Pearl at The Palms Saturday night to the strains of Weird Al Yankovic's "I'm Fat," but behind his physique and self-effacing humor lies a real fighter, and 'Big Country' proved it with a devastating first round knockout of previously unbeaten Brendan Schaub that earned Nelson The Ultimate Fighter season ten title.The best bartender/mattress salesman/rock star/cage fighter in Portsmouth
Meet Cyrus Clark, an undefeated mixed martial arts champion ... after one fight
Cyrus Clark is not a fighter.
Sure, he's had a few scraps in his life (10 by his count). But he claims he's never started one. And with his laid-back, skater-dude demeanor, he's the last guy you'd expect to see throwing down.But there he was earlier this year, moments before his mixed martial arts debut, hopping up and down like a madman, ready to rip his opponent's head off.
"It was pretty sudden for all of us," said Ted Roberts, Clark's friend from Portsmouth High School. "He wasn't a wimp, but he wasn't the kind of guy going around picking fights."
"Starting his career at 32, I think, was pretty funny," said Jay Krecklow, another longtime friend.
Clark, a lifelong Portsmouth resident and drummer for the band The Han Solos, used to watch mixed martial arts on TV at the Daniel Street Tavern, where he has bartended for the past 2½ years. But it wasn't until he and Krecklow attended a fight at the Ioka Theater in Exeter last year that he came up with his crazy idea.
"Immediately after that, that's all I kept talking about — how I wanted to do it," Clark said. "I had watched UFC, but then once I saw it in real life, it was way better, and I wanted to do it."
So Clark got a hold of Scott Millette of Hampton, who runs the 8-month-old Global Fight League, and told him he wanted to fight at the group's February show at the Capitol Center in Concord .
"He was like, 'No, no, the card's lined up,' and there was really no room for me." Then, suddenly, there was an opening. One of the fighters scheduled for the show had to pull out after losing by technical knockout in another fight.
Millette called Clark. "Here's your chance," he said.
As they approach their mid-30s, it's not unusual for men to try out extreme activities like sky diving or bungee jumping in an attempt to cling to their fading youth. But that's not Clark. He did it for the fun of it, and because, as his friend Roberts noted, it would give him a great story to tell to every girl he meets.
But in order to have a story to tell, Clark had to win the fight. And it wasn't going to be easy, as he only had two weeks to get ready, and no experience as an MMA fighter. He scarcely had time to get the required medical paperwork together, let alone train.
Cyrus had worked briefly as a bouncer, but dealing with drunks isn't much of a challenge.
("It's like handling a 6 year old," he said.) Other than that, his only physical training was running regularly, and carting around mattresses for his day job at National Discount Mattress on Islington Street.
What he did have, though, is a lot of what his friend Krecklow calls "pent-up aggression." And some experience getting beaten up as a kid by his older brother.
To get Clark ready for the fight, Millette took him to a gym in Haverhill, Mass.
"They beat the crap out of Cyrus for three weeks," Millette said.
"He gave me a crash course in stand-up boxing," Clark said. This entailed how to stand, where to hold his hands, and how to protect himself. "There's definitely an art to that."
When Clark broke a rib sparring just four days before his fight, he kept his mouth shut, afraid he might lose his chance to fight.
"I didn't realize at first I had broken a rib," he said. "Then it started to hurt. I definitely knew I was still gonna fight, though. I wanted to bad enough. I was afraid I wouldn't get another chance." For his corner team, Clark hooked up with Team Burgess at the weigh-in on Friday, the night before the fight. Then he worked his regular shift at the mattress store.
Saturday morning, a few hours before the bout, Team Burgess gave him his game plan for the fight. That helped him stay calm. It also helped that he had experience playing in a band.
"I know what it's like stepping out onto the stage," he said. "It was just a different event." The night of the fight, a group of friends showed up to support Clark.
"He was pretty pumped up," said Jason Stiles, his boss at the Daniel Street Tavern. "He was in the zone. He walked right past us." Physically, Clark seemed to match up pretty well against his opponent — at 6 feet tall, he had a 3-inch height advantage, and they both weighed in the neighborhood of 175 pounds.
Still, "Me and pretty much the rest of my friends all thought he was going to get his a** kicked," Roberts said.
When the fight started, it flashed through Clark's mind that he was going to have to try to kill the other guy, or be killed himself.
His plan had been to box, but the punches he was throwing kept missing. His opponent, on the other hand, had little difficulty landing a number of strong punches. Eventually, Clark grabbed the guy around the waist and pulled him to the ground.
Once on the mat, Clark managed to get his opponent in a full nelson. His cornermen started screaming, "Choke him out, baby" — a legal MMA move in which one fighter wraps his arm around the other's throat and chokes him into submission.
A minute and 20 seconds into the fight, Clark's opponent tapped-out, signaling that he was giving up.
Clark leapt into the air. As the referee raised his hands in victory, he pointed to his supporters in the crowd.
Despite his easy win, Clark said he has no plans to fight again.
"I'm already working 55 hours a week," he pointed out. "To really do MMA, you need to give 20 to 40 hours a week. There's no way. I'm officially retired, undefeated." Millette said he'd love to see Clark fight again. In fact, the GFL is building a new campaign, "So you want to be a Global Fighter?" around Clark's sudden success.
Still, Millette figures it's unlikely that he'll lure Clark back into the ring.
"He just wanted to do it once," he said. "He pretty much likened it to the top three experiences in his life, next to losing his virginity — he couldn't think of the third one."
