**official mundials thread**

[bjjaz]

Just thought I would start it since the Mundials start in about 15 minutes. Good luck to all the posters who are competing today and this weekend.

If anyone is there please start updating: Who you see, any interesting matches, common submissions etc...

I remember last year was a TON of triangles at the lower belts...this year??? Berimbolos maybe?

I'm excited! I really wish I was there this year but an injury kept me out At least with the new streaming I can watch to my hearts content.

 

[bjjaz]

Yeah I was planning on giving some play-by-play on Sunday if people are interested like last year...

I wish I at least had a good reason to not be there.... so....I'm already regretting not going.

 

[OldManbjj]

Super excited! My boys are going to war!!!

I hate that I couldn't get off of work (even though I'm retiring late this year) to be there and support them or compete.

Bahh.

[Cryomancer]

Damn didn't realise Marcelo Garcia, Ryan Hall and Roger Gracie is out. Langhi bros is unlisted??

 

[bjjaz]

Yeah I wonder what happened!

 

[bjjaz]

Hey anyone w/ any blue belt results at all! Someone has to be there, or gotten a text etc...

I'm at work has IBJJF updated anything on FB?

 

[SuperSuperRambo]

I dunno, I would think maybe they're not doing it for the first day, it's just white and blue belts today.

I'll let this be the official thread and just merge future threads into this one. Bjjaz, if you can, try and update the first post with things that are recurring, like if someone posts a link to their PBP or something like that.

Yup yup, no problem.

 

[bjjaz]

Anyone on FB? Has Lloyd, Mendes Bros or Andre posted anything about their students/teammates?

 

[KahleyTriangles]

Haven't seen anything on facebook BJJAZ, I'm watching it stream right now but there's SOOO many matches... I don't know who is who... I think the only blue belt I know is Edwin only because of this forum and I can't find him.

You are right though, LOTS of berimbolos, its kinda comical. Hahahahahaha.

Edit: Some nice deep half play too.

ha thats funny, well let me know if you see Edwin from the forum, the only person he has lost to recently, Jordan Baddi, is in his division, who also won Abu Dhabi.

 

[anaconda]

edwin will be on mat 7 soon. one of my teammates will be his second or third match i think.

its way too stressful watching teammates. Way worse than competing yourself! lol

What weight class is that bracket? I'm on my work laptop and it won't allow me to install silverlight (wtf is that...) to see brackets. I think feather is on right now.

edit: Nevermind, thanks Anaconda!

 

[anaconda]

btw, my teammate just beat jordan baddi edwin should be his next match.
