Miguel Torres Fights Again!

Miguel Torres has an an official record of 37-2. He has a work ethic that can't be matched and he has fire in his eyes. He needs the respect of every warrior in the fight world.

He is now ready to fight anyone. He competes becomes his way of life demands that he match life's toughness with his own brand of fighting and determination. The 150 pound demon fights for honor, a thing lost to most people these days.

He learned from the streets and can now do nothing else until he conquers and then he will hang it up and move to training and simply live.His blood and sweat have prepared him to return to the ring and fight any fighter. He has already shown that he can overcome a loss and dominate his field. Torres doesn't rely on the idea of winning to fight, like many fighters, he doesn't doubt himself because it isn't about winning... Miguel Torres has to fight. He has no choice, his own confidence demands that he test himself against all odds.

Can he face his demons?

He already has. He is zen and as such he sees nothing else in this life. Torres understand the fighting world like few fighters today. They are using fighting to become something else, the person they never felt they were inside. But Miguel knows who he is, he understand his place in life and is happy watching his children and being with his friends in the gym preparing to fight. He is, like Fedor Emelianenko, one of the most centered fighters today, and anyone can see that by watching them fight. They don't stick to game plans, they have transcended plans, their fighting is natural, habit even, and so he reacts with ferocity and skill where others would be confused.

UFC fighting is something few people understand. Most people enjoy MMA as a fan, some love it as a sport, others because of their dreams, but Miguel is Mixed Martial Arts. He pushes to excel where others would only push because they desperately want to be part of that group of elite warriors. There is no desperation in Miguel Torres's fighting, only the will to bend his opponent.

Brian Bowles was able to knock Torres out but in no way did he change Torres. Miguel will be back and slugging it out and if he has a choice he would like nothing more than to fight Bowles once again.

In the MMA world only Silva], Fedor and Torres have that look in their eye that strikes fear into opponants. People don't want to fight those guys because if they do they just might get destroyed. It's animal instinct. If you get hurt in the wild, you very likely will die. That's the only way to look at it.

If you get hurt the pack doesn't care they leave you behind, you try to survive Your only change is to stay with the pack.

Miguel is coming back. Count on it!
