Okay, here is my first fight. Should take a bit for it to come up, since I just uploaded it.

You know I have that same prob at 2:45 when the dude in blue puts his knee between your guard and works over to side mount. Frustrating.:icon_surp
 
Actually I often counter that pass okay (you see me counter it shortly before then). You have to grab the ankle and put your foot on the hip to counter it really well. I just screwed it up that time (it looks like I was trying to force a DLR guard instead of blocking), and he did a good job of jerking his knee over.

You can also see me trying earlier for the DLR guard as a counter to him trying the pass. But he kept really tight, so I couldn't pull it. Sad, otherwise we would've seen some nice sweeping action.

Lesson learned -- just block the cross knee pass when the DLR guard isn't open. Don't force it.

Yeah, I just watched it again. Definitely a mistake on my part that gave him the pass. His knee comes up, my hand flicks out and I touch his ankle, and then inexplicably go back to grabbing his arm instead of holding onto the ankle.

I see so much to improve (why couldn't I finish that kimura? Why does my guillotine suck? Why couldn't I get my half butterfly guard to work?), it makes me sad, but at least I don't have to worry about plateauing. I have years to work on all these holes in my game.

HAHAHA. The first day I saw him he looked scary, like he was pissed off at the world. His neck looked thick as hell. Nice vids guys, thanks for sharing
 
Xande is fucking HUGE! and I didn't realize he had so many tats. Marcelo looks the same in person. Almost as small as me and remembering how he handled Xande the way he did....phew!!

Baret Yoshida looks very chiseled as well.
