Legends MMA gym in Hollywood - training the pros

I an assignment for an MMA magazine based in Atlanta, GA. The pictures were to accompany an article by Dave Kalstein, a local writer, an MMA practitioner & enthusiast. I showed up in the afternoon on a Tuesday as suggested by Dave to catch the time when the real pros were training. I have to say that everyone I meet has been such nice people. This may surprise some since fighting seems like such an aggression-ridden sport. 

Legends put the article online here.
