This is my buddy Justin's first match with a black belt in a competition, and he's been beating himself up over it a bit. Justin and I usually both compete in the same weight class, but this was his first time stepping up to expert since i couldn't even compete, and he won intermediate at his last tournament. he gets caught with a triangle-armbar near the end of the video, but overall i thought he did pretty good; he took 3rd in the division winning his other matches. even came real close with a couple submissions that kept him close on the scoreboard.

Also I've been watching this kid Renan Borges tear it up in this area for like the past year winning almost every division he's entered Gi, no-gi, and absolute. Even ended up taking 3rd at the pan-ams this year, and he's only 20, got his black belt when he was 18 or some crazy shit.
enjoy
