Matt Trejo: Blast from the PAST!

Where does time go? This photo was taken almost 14 years ago after Matt Trejo won 2nd place in full-contact continuous fighting at the Canadian Open Martial Arts Championship in October 2004. One of the most exciting things about this particular division, however, was that Matt was a Green Belt in American Kenpo, and all other competitors were black belts. Matt took 2nd place in a very close final match, and really dominated one of his fights against a high-ranking Kung-Fu expert.

Today, I am 43 and Matt is 34. I'm totally fine with that, but don't we look the same age in the picture? I think I've aged!
