Brad: We train together pretty regularly, a lot depends on who's fighting when and how healthy each of us are. As big guys we get a lot of aches and pains from time to time. But yeah we train regularly. As far as the match up, Tim's stand up is really good being a boxer/kickboxer so he definitely has the upper hand on me as far as that goes. You know, when we grapple...he doesn't like grappling with me a whole lot. That's as much as I'll say about that. There's also a big difference between Tim in the room and Tim in the ring. I think it's the same way with me, and a lot of guys that are good fighters. You see a different side of them come out in the ring. Tim's belt level goes up, I think, two degree's when he gets in the ring. I don't know how it works, but he's almost triangle choking people like Jeff Monson.

MMAFightline: So your saying he's a gamer.

Brad: He is a gamer. People always ask me when I'm gonna fight Tim, and I always say that we're not gonna fight each other. There's a lot of people that are really good friends of mine that I train with, and we'd never fight each other. It's good to talk about but it would never happen. If you want to see us go at you can come up to Bettendorf, Iowa and watch us practice. You'll get a good show.

MMAFightline: So when will we see Brad Imes climb back into the cage for a high profile, big time fight?

Brad: Certainly with in the next twelve months, I think I'll be climbing back up there. You know, I'm really starting to round out my skills and my ring experience. So here in the next twelve months I'll probably be right back up in the mix. But I think this has been a good time for me. It's not like I'm struggling to get by or anything. I'm doing well. I'm getting fights and I've got some sponsors so things are going well.

MMAFightline: Is there anything that you'd like to say to your fans or any sponsor shot outs?

Brad: Yeah, thanks for sticking by me. I've met a lot of people in my travels, and they've all been good to me. As far as the sponsors, don't forget to pick up some Warrior Wear stuff and some Shocker Nutrition products.

MMAFightline.com would like to thank Brad Imes for taking time out of his busy schedule do sit down and talk with us.
