Honestly, hearing your kid adds authenticity to the video. You're a young father and you should wear it with pride. Fathers are heavily undervalued these days, be proud man.

You don't have to apologize for your kid man, you're a good guy love the content keep it up you look good out there

Keep the jiu-jitsu content coming Martial. You're a beast

Martial, you're doing well on the discipline, every loss will only make you stronger. you're already doing well at blue belt, now imagine once you get to black belt. keep your head high, king! it's only up from here

For fight purposes, like if you switch into MMA, it’s crucial to have that survival skill. Like you said “just not get submitted.” For bjj tournaments you might want to think of some traps to set up. Flow around and conserve energy, then if he takes the bait, explode into a submission. But even if there’s no substitute for hard work, gotta enjoy those vacations and time with family bro! Thanks for the great content. Came for the UFC gameplay, staying now for the grappling. You can branch out into other content too for sure. Your mind definitely works analytically, and you bring a great deal of charisma too.

Imagine Henry becomes an MMA champion, that would be fire.

Damn i just arrived home from my first competition at blue belt too, but in brazil instead I scored 2nd place and guy on the final really outclassed me I felt way more calm and collected compared to my first comp at white belt where i got choked out at the first 2 minutes of the first match

@14:45 when he goes from mount to knee on belly, you only get points if you improve your position and you need to establish the position for 3 seconds. So improving positions go from knee on belly > mount > back. You don’t gain points from going back > mount > knee belly. You can jump back and forth from mount and knee on belly and gain points from mount only as long as you establish 3 second control in each position.

Martial, I’ve watched you and your channel for undisputed such a long time ago. The channel growth is good to see as I’m still here of course. Seeing this and your life evolve is amazing. Been really wanting to pursue Jiu Jitsu for a while and seeing this and you do so well is really awesome. Very happy for you and your jiu jitsu path! Thank you for your content and education in martial arts, love the channel

You’re inspiring my dude. You’re humble attitude during competition especially.

great job in this tourney man your Jiujitsu vids are inspiring man and it’s great to see you putting in work

Hey brother, congrats on the blue and on this tournament! Closed Guard is one of my fav positions, I'm lucky to have began learning it from day 1 at my school. I noticed at @21:58 you had a chance for an arm drag. Super deadly move that opens up the back or sweeps! Great content, love the commenting and narration. Best of luck with your shoulder and in your BJJ journey!

Was a great video, love watching these types of matches

this was amazing bro keeps it up!

Good stuff, man. Enjoyed this as much as your UFC Game vids. Congratulations on the bronze.

U have inspired me to start jiu jistu lessons along with my Muay Thai I train. Keep up the jiu jistu content man!

Sweet video dude. I enjoyed watching it

Love that you're sharing this journey with us. just my 2 cents with love, I suggest you get the surgery. Recovery times are for the average, not the dedicated. i would bet that you would come back stronger and better much faster than you think. sharpen all your tools right. mind, BODY and soul. plus the recovery will have many valuable lessons it can teach as well. best of luck with whatever you chose my man. either way i love watching your journey and wish you the best.

You actually did post it I’m excited for this 🔥🔥

Awesome dude! Proud of you man. Great work!

I love ur analystic aproach when you comment ufc4 and now even ur own bjj fights! With either I find it pretty helpful if I try using it.

Every time I hear your kids scream, my attention level rises briefly to full alert for a moment. It is good to hear them, they are pure life.

Awesome stuff man!!

I love these. I learn a lot about my own grappling from him.

Yoooo! I love this, makes me want to get into bjj. Please never stop posting these 😁

Once again I love this

Great content man

First match was solid asf 👌 well done 👏

Congrats, man!

Please do more Jiu-Jitsu Breakdown. Great video

Hell yea martial lets go man!

As I said before martial, stay hungry, stay humble, stay patient, as far as I can see you embody that to the best of your ability, as that's where greatness comes from. Thank you for sharing your outside life with us as well as your gaming content, seeing you as a person striving to achieve your goals and be a father is inspiring truly. Secondly as I have said before and others who enjoy your channel, don't apologize for your daughter man, as someone whose kids have disabilities I learned the hard way you don't have to apologise for your kid being a kid, enjoy it and we enjoy I because it goes faster than you think. Sorry for the long message lol, p.s. don't put off surgeries, the younger you are when you get it taken care of the better chance of recovery.

Hell yea I love these irl videos it motivates me to get off my ass and do some sort of training

Great match. I am half guard/deep half player myself and I think you did awesome job. First match was just domination. When I saw faded blue belt on 2nd match I knew it wouldn’t be easy. Considering he was smashing you, I am surprised you even got to the deep half-ish position. I did few tourney as white belt but I havnt done any as blue. Good luck !!

Hey Martial mind I was wondering if you could try to post more of these because I have always done wrestling and I also did a little bit of karate but I want to learn jujitsu and you video are cool to watch and I also learned a little bit

Surprised you haven’t taken down that Izzy picture after his performance. 😂 Love your content, bro. Keep doing your thing.

Awesome just Awesome 🔥

Do I see you with your hand raised in the thumbnail? Okayyyyyyy Henraaaaaayyyy

I know literally nothing about BJJ but glad to watch you’re content.

Love it love it love it love it! You look amazing out there even if you got bronze; some people walk away with nothing! Even then you can only go up from here 💯

nice job looks like there was a chance for you to go for a paintbrush too when you had full mount in the first match great job though

We don’t all love to watch you lose Martial 🙏🏽❤️ God bless

Careful not to injure yourself more, plenty of guys tuck a bad arm in their belt and roll just fine. You’ll improve your game a lot as long as you have partners that will take care of you, best wishes my brother.

Yessir good job please show more if your training

I don't know alot about grappling but your making me wannna get into grappling

cool content love learning bjj watching ur vids bro

This is gonna be a good one!

Incredible ‼️‼️‼️

Yo Henry! I’m from the Outer Banks! Congrats on the tourney. Great stuff man. Cheers

Loved this vid bro.. you have a amazing life bro. A kid / ju jitsu / KZfaq as a job. Bro you made it 🔥

dewd your jiu-jitsu is incredible. I hope you recover quick

Great job bro! Regarding your injury, what type of S&C do you do? I recommend checking out the guys from Bulletproof for BJJ program cause they have some really good stuff for rehabbing any injuries and injury prevention in general. I’m currently following their program and its been really good plus my body feels great!

peep the people in the back of ur third match like 19:55 😂 this video was very entertaining though thank u

To be honest martial I'm looking for more bjj content bro keep it coming!

that modified butterfly sweep from the first match was a thing of beauty

Dat boy martial strong as hell 😂😂😂

This is awesome! Sorry about your shoulder dog, hopefully you can find something to help it

MM congratulations on the blue !

Oh man, I remember writing that long ass paragraph after that Video where you talked about that „talk“ with your coach, regarding your „potential“ and back then I wrote a lot about how you’re in my opinion a far better and superior fighter than you could ever think about yourself .. and all I gotta say is, it makes me unbelievable happy to see that I was totally right. I’m close to fighting MMA myself again After years of break, and I can’t wait to finally go again. Whatever. Thanks for all these Videos. you‘re a beast dude. wish you none of the best. big thanks for the content always.

6 months off is better than risking serious injury and never being able to do it again man but up to you, was very interesting to watch and look forward to see more :)

Anyone whose ever done Jiu Jitsu knows it's hard asf, respect to all those who do it.

Nice. From a wrestlers standpoint, BJJ looks fun and I envy those who have the opportunity to learn.

My last tournament I got double silver my first two tournaments didn't go my way but I trained hard and made alot of progress keep it up man proud of you

Black excellence. Keep on going harder. We got your back brother

As a 4 stripe blue belt myself I fully understand the struggle during a tournament and you're dead tired during a match. My mental fatigued costed me a match I clearly could've won had I just focused on staying on top and keeping my position secured while going for safe attacks

What about the illegal grips on the 3rd fight? Or is it only in IBJJF? Great work bro 💪🏽

Let’s get it Henry

you should do a video on how BJJ tournaments work ?

Second dude wasn’t holding knee on belly properly or mounting long enough to get points. Ref actually made the right calls here.

Good stuff! What weight and division was this?

Hey martial great video all around. I have a question though, why did you chose gi jujitsu, why didn’t you pick no gi jujitsu and do you ever see yourself transitioning to no gi? Also you kinda got me into jujitsu and watching events🧡

Hey bro did you compete in the Spartanburg tournament in South Carolina bc if so I was there too

My professor used to tell me when you’re tired thats when you’re true technique form of jiujitsu comes out

You did very well for your first blue belt competition. As you train more, you will improve your endurance and your technique. If you want to really test your skills then try a submission only competition after you have been a blue belt for a couple of months, if you can find one near you. With the submission only format and the way that some of these competition do not limit the amount of time a match goes for, the outcome of the match will come down to your endurance and your skills instead of a referee's calls which are sometimes questionable.

nice video when did you get blue belt and what medal did you get?

What gi were you wearing? Been looking into getting a few new ones. Been looking at origin, hyperfly, & tatami

8:23 baby Martial is the best. I don’t mind

I’m not sure if this is in all tournaments but in most you get knee on belly points by posturing up and posting your back leg out. So that’s why they didn’t give you and the other guy points. Good job on the tournament and keep up the good content!
