Wow he has him really twisted in the last pic....

Nice shots...

Nice shots. I have done a little MMA but used remote strobes. The lighting at many of these venues can be challenging to say the least. Also tough to get a good angle a lot of the time since they twist and turn constantly. Good job!

These look great, looks like you were in the ring with them. What kind of lighting did you use?

Thanks, guys.

Lighting- I don't use a flash, ever, for fight photography. It's distracting, plus, it just doesn't look as good.

That is really good, way to go, I've never seen anything like this before and I think you really brings the fight to life.

Thanks. I've shot close to 20 events now, and I'm still learning each and every time I go out there to shoot. Needless to say, there's a large quality disparity from what I was shooting a year and a half ago until now, and the camera I was using had was only a small part of the equation.

Damn, nice pictures...
very nice :D
I shot at the UFC once, want to shoot more, but they never come here to NJ/NY area... lets wait..

Good stuff. Good to see you posting on the forum and I can see your photos are improving. I like that you use the ambient light, too. The slightly off-color white balance actually works well for your subject, I think. It adds to the gritty feel of your photos. Keep them coming!
