If you like Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) and you haven't heard of Ricardo "The Bully" Lamas, then you probably will very soon. He has a fight in Las Vegas on August 9 versus Danny Castillo in WEC 42. Lamas is undefeated as a lightweight and coming off a huge win against Bart Palaszewski, which I wrote about here. I began photographing Lamas for a photo essay and story I did last fall; that was before he joined the WEC. He asked me to take photos of him with his English Bull Terrier, Chico, who gained weight since I last saw him. I took some photos of them yesterday in Westmont, IL. Some of these photos will appear on his website. Lamas is one of the most self-motivated athletes I've met. He is humble and always seeking to improve. I would not be surprised if he becomes one of the best in the world.
