I just got a few of my BJJ matches online. My first tournament I only had one month of training. The second tournament I attended I had 3 months of training. I'd appreciate some constructive criticism. Remember, these videos are from only 3 months of training or less! Lol, I now have been training for 5 months and just recieved my blue belt from Saulo Ribeiro December 15th. Thanks guys!

you are decent and how the fuck did you get your blue belt in 5 months? it took me almost a year but i do really well in competitions, how have you done in blue belt comps. And there are some major holes in your game but that all comes with time...

Yeah, I wrestled at Spencerport. I never had a stellar career in wrestling. I was frequently injury plagued. I tested under Saulo Ribeiro who won mundials 6 times. I've improved quite a bit since these videos which was about 2 months ago. The others were about 4 months ago. I train 5 days week, sometimes 2 times a day.

No disrepect taken.

Bryan Bourne. He won Fargo last year. Also won Junior Nationals. The kid is an animal. I had the pleasure to beat on him when he was just a young lad at 112 pounds. I wouldn't call it hazing, I'd call it, breaking him in. lol. Myself and a few of our teammates would always mess with him. I'm guessing you graduated a few years ago?

I haven't entered any tournaments since I recieved my blue belt. I'm about 155 lbs, so its hard to gauge myself on the other blue belts in the school. They're all 175 lbs+. But I roll good with them, I get submitted just as much as I submit the other guy. Its a lot harder to sweep them, so my technique has to be perfect otherwise they squash me mid sweep. I find that it really helps my hip movement when I have to maneuver around bigger guys.

im a 149 and i roll with all bigger guys in fact there is only 3 guys my size... but yeah working with bigger guys has always helped my technique don't lay on your back with big guys unless you have a really good guard game... but anyways i wish i could train 2 times a day. but again your skill in the gym is nothing compared to the skill you have in competition, so let us know when you compete and that will really be a judge.

yeah i graduated in 05 but that kid was amazing he looked real young when i faced him and i was overconfident then he came out like a mosnter it was a real tough match i won by getting three takedowns but damn that kid was good for his age


and yeah i do goto serra and its madd obnoxious bc i think i may be one of the only whtiebelts around to sub purps and beat brown belts (by points) i jsut want my fuckin blue but he never promotes anyone bc sooooo many people goto the school now

I know dude. I get worked up too sometimes about it, but then I have my sempei as an example, he doesn't even wear a belt in the dojo.
