Ok people, Nick is like really upset (not his words exactly) about this whole identity thing, so he has asked me to set this strait.
I trained with Nick Scamera back in the late 80's early 90's at the Villa Pk school. Last I saw hm he was teaching at an unafiliated school somewhere in the Chicago area.
I met Nick Monticello and took him on as my students around 94-95 or so (I think, it's been so long).
I can assure you all, they are two different people. Nick trained in the mid to late 80's for a bit, and then came back to the system in the early 90's and started over again.
As for the weight issue, Nick Monticello is about an even 6' and maybe 205- 210 tops with quite a bit of weight lifitng under his belt.
Nick Scamera is about 350, similar height, but very over weight and not very agile. He's strong, and can hold stances forever I'm told, but there is no way the two Nicks could be the same person.
Trust me on this, Nick Monticello (A freind and former student/ocasional training parter) is NOT Nick Scamera.
Also, KC Elbows is NOT Frank Cullerton, Eric Z or anyone else who reacently left in the last year or two.I also know him from my old Moo days. You guys are grasping at straws here as to people's identitys, and your not even close. Hell, you've acused ME of being other people, when you know damm welll what my real name is from my site.
What you all need to do, is instaed of trying to figure out who your going to trash next, you should stop smoking all that Crack Kim puts in your herb bags, wake up, and go learn a real system that you can teach legitimately. Nothing short of that will redeem you or your past actions.
