Message: Greetings from Stockholm, Sweden!
Mr Alexander: On behalf of myself as well as my wife Annu, we would very much like to thank you for taking your time talking with us at the Columbus convention center, Saturday the 1:th of March. You really made our day with your great attitude!!
Good luck to you in your next fight against James Irvin, and remember that you have our full support from us on the other side of the Atlantic!!//Erik
Message: Good luck April 2 Houston (though I don’t think you’ll need it)!Give Irvin a good Nebraska ass whoopin. I got my picture taken with ya at the Victory fights last Dec. and you signed my Husker hat that’s now on my wall. That was the highlight of the whole night for me. The UFC is lucky to have you. You’re a class act and a great representative for the sport of mma. Keep on rockin.
P.S.- The Jardine fight was awsome!

Hey Houston,
I’m the Canadian you spoke and took a picture with at the Arnold’s on Saturday in the grappling area. You mentioned you were interested in coming to Toronto at some point. It’s a great city. Just wanted to throw you an invite to come to Canada. I live in Windsor (across from Detroit about 4 hrs from Toronto), also a great city, and started training MMA in October. The summer is a bangin’ time in this city.
Let me know if you’d be up for the trip.

Houston,
Thanks for calling back in response to the email the other day. I hope everything went well for you at the Arnold. I did want to ask you a question I forgot about Saturday. What on earth do you do for a work out program? I about dropped my beer when I saw easily you picked up Thiago Silva by the throat and choke slammed him. I have been doing a little powerlifting (bench, squat, dead lift, etc) but I don’t know if you would recommend continuing with that or switching to body weight exercises and calisthenics. Do you have any specific exercises you can recommend? I can’t wait to watch you wreck the Sandman. I don’t think he realizes what he signed up for.
Take it Easy,
Brent

It was a pleasure getting to meet to you and shake your hand at the Arnold Classic yesterday. I was lucky enough to meet you outside of the convention in the lobby. You are truly a class act. Your dedication to MMA while raising a large family is very commendable. I appreciate you being so down to earth and taking the time to talk to me. Best of luck to you in April.
Thanks again for the highlight of my trip. I hope when I’m in Nebraska I might get a chance to see your gym.
Best Regards,

Houston,
Thanks for the call last week; it made me realize that you really care about your fans and your home town boyz (it really made my day). I thought it was my Grandmother because of the area code, you know how old ladies can be, anyway. I called you back and left a voice message; I haven’t called you back because I know how busy you are. All I want to do is help you win and succeed, if there is anything I can do as a fan, friend or investor let me know. Thanks again for the call and stay up!! You are a BAMF!

I’m a huge fan. I’m an Air Force officer located at Thule AB Greenland and I’m originally from Omaha Nebraska. I have seen all your professional fights & you kick ass. I’m proud to say that you are one of the best light heavy weight MMA fighters I have ever seen. I’m glad to see that you acknowledge Omaha as your home town/fighting of location; there are too many posers that have left Nebraska & won’t represent. Every time you have fought I have made sure that I have seen the fight. Usually, the fight doesn’t start until midnight & doesn’t finish until 3:00am in Greenland. I have made it a point to notify everyone here of your fights to make sure they watch. I will be PCSing to Germany in about a month; if you ever have a fight in Europe my wife & I will be there to cheer you on.

Whats up bro. It’s Jason from Cincinnati. I was the guy in the wheelchair you came to see at UFC 77 in Cincinnati. Thanks for coming up to see me and take a picture with me. I created a myspace page like you said but I never heard from you so I deleted it. I thought I may have a better chance to get a hold of you through your website. Don’t leave me hangin. I will have to knock you out. Just kidding. I wanted to drop you a line to see how you are doing. I hope your training is going great. I am looking forward to seeing you drop some people in the octagon. I read on your website you are into dj-ing. Are you still doing it. I may have to come and check it out if you are doing sometime. Hit me back.

Houston,
When is your next fight? I was sad to watch the last one in the UFC but a man of your stature can come back and really make some adjustments to win big in the UFC.
I was a single father of one 2 year old daughter. It was just her and I until she turn 6 and I am now married. My hats off to a man who can raise 6 children. Keep up the great work.

Hello Houston
My name is Janaka Abeyaratna and I am from Montreal Canada. Like so many of us we were blown away watching your fights. I have seen every UFC and am a huge mma fan, at one time in my life i used to fight. What really impressed me was what you have done in your personal life 6 kids single parent , education and have given the gift of life to your daughter. I am dialysis patient and understand the issues faced someone who has kidney disease. Your performance as a professional fighter with one kidney has given me a lot of inspiration to go back to training and enjoy the sport as much as i can.
Best Wishes and hope to see you fight in Montreal one day.

Hey man Im a huge fan #1 because you str8 up kick some ass and #2 your from Nebraska and represent. My question is that I used to Fight out of North Platte with Wiesman’s Fight factory and Now I took a job here in Omaha and want to train. You may know my bud Luke Cadillo? We grew up together and he recommended hookin up with your gym as well did Kelly Weisman. It would be a great honor and pleasure to fight out of your gym. So if you could either hit me up on my cell or email me back that would be great.
Thanks

Houston,
It’s pure pleasure to watch you fight. I have to say, though, that it’s equally cool to see and hear you display the character attributes of a “role model” and a father. As far as I can tell, you’re a real credit to yourself and your family.
Oddly enough, as I’m typing this Spike/UFC is reshowing your fight against Alessio Sakara. Nice KO!
Anyway, I just finished listening to the interview that was posted on 1/15 and thought I’d take the time to pass on my best wishes.
Looking forward to your next fight with James Irvin. Remember, it’s not just Nebraska. You do the whole United States proud…
