Hey brother, I was your opponent in this match! Great battle. Hopefully we can compete again in the future!

I’m out of breath after watching this. You guys are barely breathing. Great match. I competed at Pan ams as white and blue belt 10 years ago… damn I’m old now. Time flies boys. Enjoy the journey.

Good effort. I started this year, 7 lessons in now. I hope I can match your effort when I compete down the track.

Excellent match! Thanks for posting 🔥🔥🔥🔥🤙🏽

Love it! Much more technique than my first ever comp. Well done lads

Solid effort from both guys.

AWESOME matches, i love the way TCO aranges everything it was my first ever tournament, that being said I saw your discription about not knowing why you didn't get 2 points at the 3:50 the reason for that is because all you were doing at that point was sprawling. guard passes only count for sliding through to mount but other than that AWESOME work! Keep training and looking up! NAO PARA! (Nao para means dont stop in portugese)

Very good job to both of you!

Awesome match. Great effort from both opponents.

Great job to both!

Good job guys. That was a very close fight.

Congrats 🤙🏻

Thanks for sharing

Nice Single Leg X attempt, good match!

Great match!

good match!!!

Nice back and forth!

Nice work

This was awesome

good job

not bad for your first tournament! you had a few opportunities to easily get the guard open when standing by just putting you knee into his butt, putting pressure and pushing down on one of his legs. not sure how he won the match, but good battle.

Good wrestling

Hell yeah

Nice work fellas

How was the overall experience? Thinking about taking a stab at the next grappling industries tournament coming up.

Great match. Planning on competing in December. Looking for any tips.

How long had you been training for before you went to this tournament? I wanna compete in October but haven’t really started yet (I’ve done a 6 wk course but haven’t been able to train for 2 wks)?

watching this makes me wanna go back to competing but i'm scared now because i'm a blue belt lol and throughout my white belt i always had to move up in weight classes. still managed to place! in total of my white belt competitions I gotten three golds two silvers and two bronze i believe!

Currently do wrestling But would love to try bjj 1 day What is average age pple usually start?

Everyone doing tournies at fancy places, mine are always on an indoor soccer field

What kind of camera? Super crisp!!

Technically that was not a take down, if anything it looked like a reversal. I could see how you should've gotten an advantage point there though. It was a good match, especially since he wouldn't engage in the beginning. You stuffed his shot and came back with a nice takedown in the beginning there!

seems like he was initiating a guard pull from his sprawl as you were countering and coming up on top. not sure and deff dont like advantages

Hey im looking to do jit jutsu Do i go to a martial arts gym. how long do I have to train to become part of tournaments?

100% should have been 2 pts for the sweep

Great job for your first tournament. 3:50 wasn't a take down because he was on his knee. If he was standing when you took him down you would have been correct and been scored 2 points. OSS

What weight division were you in ?

4:43 bro in the back just hit a clip

Thought the guy in the black gi won this tbh

Sorry brother which competitor are you? The tall guy in white gi is very tentative. I had a similar appearance in my first jitsu match. Don't be afraid to engage, get close. Spend time grappling at slow-medium-faster pace in the gym for your tournaments. If you get unlucky and meet a wrestler who takes you down right away, so be it you will just have to get up from under him by using your guard. But jabbing the fakes from the outside is not jiu jitsu, it won't get you any positional advantage. Spend more time learning your distance which needs to be closer This is said from a completely non-judgmental perspective as this was my experience in my first tournament 5 months ago as well. As ive done more tournaments nerves have become slightly better over time. Competing is great for learning these lessons.
