Here's my first match, which i won by points, i noticed when i watched it, my opponent (in black) puts his thumbs up to his coach. he also did like a "come here" thing to me while standing

My 2nd match was fun... against a guy named colin from saulo. Video was just uploaded so it's still not available, but i lost by armbar in the final minute. i could hear world champ Xande screaming coaching my opponent, i couldnt drown out his voice to hear my coach. i'll post link when its up

Sweet.

awesome, your opponent seemed very aggressive with poor technique, you looked a bit tentative but your techniques were overall solid.

i was tired from the nervousness, i was tense but yeah he felt exactly like you described

 

[hayliks]

your second match, i think you have the ability to win, he just wanted it more. i didn't see anything particularly spectacular, he was just picking and choosing some solid technique with a lot of strength and commitment to the technique at the right times.

it seems like you compete somewhat regularly (more regularly than me right now), do you get very nervous still?

last time i competed was last pan ams, and before that was 2004... i don't compete much...
my 2nd opponent had a by first round. he was fresh, hes short and solid, i'm 5'10 and weighed in at 150. i think i lost a lot of energy from cutting. but i've always felt weaker than the more built shorter guys.

i tried collar dragging him but i somehow ended up going under his legs, i couldn't establish position and by then he had an underhook which i couldn't defeat.

 

[hayliks]

yeah he looked physically stronger than you, but technically didn't seem much of a difference..

anyways great job, for the tournaments you pick... you don't seem to pick the easier ones lol..

do you get very nervous still?

first match jitters all the time!!!

i don't get it anymore... i just remind myself that i've had close to 200 more grappling matches then my opponent.. lol

Congrats and good job. Forgive me for asking, but where do you train?

 

[:)]

Its is probably just the skin tone but you look like a young Jacare . You stayed patient in that kids triangle which was cool I normally go a bit crazy to escape even if it doesn't feel quite on.

Cool vids, shows you got good game in both top and bottom. What made me laugh was your first opponent. Just made me think "idiot!"

I can't stand it when they put the four fingers in the "mouth" of the pants. It's dirty fighting, and just plain annoying.

It's not just dirty, but it's against tournament rules too.

True. I forgot to mention that it is also illegal. Maybe, not called as much as it should be.

 

[anaconda]

nice job man, I like how you roll...man these videos are making me itch to compete.

 

[Zankou]

I am uploading my first match (which I won) and hopefully will be able to post it soon. My second match (which I lost) was so boring that it would be a sin to post it. Not that my first match was particularly exciting either.

 

[Kimuralex]

you looked very good imo. You moved very smoothe.


Quick question tho, BJJGPLA won the blackbelt division right

 

[octane7]

how long have you been training / where??
