NAGA Chicago

[Sharkk]

Anyone going? This Saturday.

 

[Wrestleben]

I am going.

Masters 189 newb divisions FTW.

I plan on becoming king of the white belts.

Me and another catch guy are going to watch (to see what's up). I would participate if I had enough time to train. Right now I would have to fight at Super Heavy...Uh no thanks. I have enough problems with the 300 pounders in class. With training I would aim for the 189 lbs. class.

I was talking to some guys from New Breed BJJ and they said they have a bunch of guys going. I think they won the whole thing the last few years.

 

[green_machine]

Heck yes.

 

[Darksky]

What are the age divisions ie masters?

 

[Wrestleben]

teen
adult 18-29
masters 30-39
directors 40-49
old people 50+

If I don't leave with a sword, I've failed.

I did pretty well myself. Had fun, and that's really why I went.

Nice; I think I saw a few of your matches if I recall correctly, since there was a young guy in a grey shirt who grabbed for rubber guard in multiple matches.

Anyone going? This Saturday.

My gym was there...New Breed Chicago. Overall I thought NAGA did OK compared to the previous NAGA I went to.


I was in Masters White Belt and No-Gi as well as Mens White Belt 149.9.
