JimW Posted September 15, 2009 Report Share Posted September 15, 2009 Born in the eastern Lithuanian city of Utena to Helenas and Rolandas Sakickiene, Remigijus knew from an early age what his life calling was "Ive always been a fighter, I was always fighting with other kids and getting in trouble. And so it what was, that his father, a former amatuer boxer in the Lithuanian army, forced the boy to box. "When I first started boxing, I really enjoyed it and picked it up really quickly" By the age of 11, Remigijus had won 3 ABA schoolboy tournaments, but boxing didn't seem to fill his violent appetite, "I love to box, I really do. But nothing feels the same as kicking, and I felt when I was boxing I was missing out on kicking, what if I fought someone who could kick? Id be fucked" So, he enrolled in the only class he could find, Taekwondo. "Taekwondo was weird at first, they were teaching us techniques, but we werent fighting" After only 2 months of training, Remi forced his insturctor to let him enter a tournament. Which, unsurprisingly if you know Remi, he won. "After this tournament was the last time I ever seen my dad, he died of a heart attack. So I said to myself, I going to stick with this, for my dad" 4 years later, Remi, by now 15, was considered a Lithuanian prodigy and a potential medallist at the 2008 Olympic games. "It was 2006, the Olympics were 2 years away. Here in Lithuania we never really do good at the Olympics, so any potential medallist becomes an icon, the Lithuanians hope. I began to feel that fighting was being put 2nd." So at age 16, before his TKD career had even begun, he retired. "Who wantes to be a pussy points fighter anyway? I want to finish fights with the other in a heep at my feet" The Lithuanian press weren't so forgiving, berating him for quitting and losing them a possible medal. So with the support of his mother, he moved to Thailand, to live on a Muay Thai camp. "At first it was hard, but I enjoyed it more and more" During his time in Thailand he met Diego Aranzeila, a BJJ black belt who was in Thailand to train for an upcoming MMA fight, always interested in other fighting styles, Remi began to train with him. "Before I met Diego I didn't know much about MMA and nothing about Jiu Jitsu, but it was fun." In his 2 years living in Thailand, Remi ammassed a professional Muay Thai record of 44-6 fighting on small local shows "Fighting in Thailand was cool, but I was longing for more, I didn't want to live in Thailand for the rest of my life, I fought under different rules a few times, I have a K1 record of 2-0" The FEG owned company K1 began to look at Remi as a potential star. "When K1 offered me a fight on one of their Max shows, I was really happy, I signed the contract to fight immedately" The fights itself finished in a 3rd round TKO for his oppenent, but Remi had this to say, "During the fight, my head wasnt with me, I know I could beat that guy if I tried. But my mind was thinking of other things, I kept thinking of the things Diego showed me, I wanted to take this guy down and submit him. So after the fight finished, I decided Im going to fight MMA." Remi packed his things from the hostel in Thailand he was living in and moved to Tokyo, "I'm now in Japan ready to wreck some people, I may not be a very good grappler or wrestler, but I know I can strike with anyone, and Im training hard everyday." Look out Tokyo, Remigijus Sakickiene is gonna tear some shit up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j666 Posted September 15, 2009 Report Share Posted September 15, 2009 yesss! sweet bio dude! lol. it's shit like this that makes the game that much more fun! i got the idea for a bio when i read a post by a guy replying to a thread talking about clothing companies being a boring business to run. he mentioned doing fake interviews and other types of pictures (ala hells ball's fullbody pics). i also read a write up called "contenders" by dmdfc (tokyo) that listed small summaries for all the top fighters in the org. he mentioned that buck norris was a "talented boxer that seems to win every fight by submission...an intresting enigma to say the least." (which is true lol)...i laughed my ass off! very clever! i also saw a gym (can't remember where) that has bios for their coaches and has an interview with the owner(?)... there's a lot of things you can do to make this game more "in depth" and fun. it just depends on how far you wanna take it. personally, i tend to have a lot of free time and get kinda bored when my fighters aren't fighting cuz it only takes about 5 minutes to give them all their supps n' whatnot. so i figured i'd get down with a funny little bio. i plan on doing some more as soon as some of my guys get a bit older and a few more fights under their belts.

diori Posted September 15, 2009 Report Share Posted September 15, 2009 Why does Remigijus have a female surname? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimW Posted September 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2009 Why does Remigijus have a female surname? Because he is ALL man. And I went on wikipedia looking for Lithuanian surnames, and some rower had that 2nd name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 randy won a title by quitting?...or is that too obvious? lolAnother fellow who doesn't understand sarcasm? You are beginning to sound like Jeepis. No of course Randy didn't win his titles by quitting, hence the question to the guy that prides himself by saying he is smarter because he knows when to quit. Or maybe you are just trying to make a point? That I have to stop assuming that everything is apparent to everybody? ......Fuck you?No? I'm just curious. Since you are so smart, when should he have quit according to you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diori Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 Because he is ALL man. If I have understood Mrs. Sakickiene's bio correctly: Remigijus was born to two gay men (Helenas and Rolandas). He is she and married (Sakickiene). (Either one of) His father(s) served the Lithuanian army probably in the 70's (Lithuania was under Soviet reign 1944-90). I have to say the Sakickienes are "all MAN". The father served in a private-funded nationalistic army two decades before regaining independence, I assume, they're the first (and the last) gay couple in the history to manage to abort a baby in the Soviet Union and raised a healthy transvestite that fights for a living.

j666 Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 tough crowd. luckily for me, i know nothing of lithuanian history so the bio seemed kinda cool...at least he put some sort of effort into the game...unlike some people here.

Setsuna Posted October 23, 2009 Report Share Posted October 23, 2009 I came across this while looking for another thread, and I had to bump it. Not to be a jerk, but just as a cautionary tale on why not to write a long bio about an 0-0 fighter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
