WEBVTT

00:00:00.017 --> 00:00:05.857
Welcome back to Fighters Drinking Coffee, guys. Wow, that was breathy. It's intense. Yeah.

00:00:07.117 --> 00:00:11.097
So we just got back two days ago.

00:00:11.357 --> 00:00:13.697
When you're hearing this, it'll be three. But we just got back,

00:00:13.937 --> 00:00:21.837
Scott on Saturday, myself on Sunday, from Las Vegas, Nevada for the IBJJF World Nogi Championships.

00:00:22.637 --> 00:00:25.477
We both competed. We had a bunch of friends that were competing.

00:00:26.757 --> 00:00:30.497
Some friends of the show. you know so a

00:00:30.497 --> 00:00:34.917
lot of cool stuff to talk about we had some fun we had some good meals we did

00:00:34.917 --> 00:00:39.997
you know we uh some mediocre meals too in the lead up yeah some very boring

00:00:39.997 --> 00:00:46.197
cups full of dry ass chicken that's right uh and hard-boiled eggs um but you

00:00:46.197 --> 00:00:49.597
know it was uh it was an exciting weekend you know,

00:00:50.377 --> 00:00:55.117
not uh for me like not every the result wasn't what i wanted but like ultimately

00:00:55.117 --> 00:00:59.677
it was i i think it went great we'll talk more in depth with that you broke

00:00:59.677 --> 00:01:04.537
your curse of winning of losing in the first round uh brought home some hardware

00:01:04.537 --> 00:01:08.617
yourself and we'll go more into that as well uh friends,

00:01:09.277 --> 00:01:16.717
andrea made her brown belt debut we watched uh maya destroy that girl's knee um.

00:01:18.259 --> 00:01:21.279
Beatrice had some good matchups too and

00:01:21.279 --> 00:01:24.299
like just people we know uh and then our friends

00:01:24.299 --> 00:01:27.739
from Unbreakable Jiu Jitsu um it was

00:01:27.739 --> 00:01:30.539
uh they she I

00:01:30.539 --> 00:01:33.659
think she double golded she did um so you know

00:01:33.659 --> 00:01:36.479
it was overall like some cool stuff

00:01:36.479 --> 00:01:39.259
was going on um and you know

00:01:39.259 --> 00:01:42.639
a lot of and we'll talk about data collection

00:01:42.639 --> 00:01:45.299
on the next episode but you know we we did we we put

00:01:45.299 --> 00:01:48.239
together uh we got some good data

00:01:48.239 --> 00:01:50.959
from just getting out there i mean this was my

00:01:50.959 --> 00:01:54.119
first time competing at worlds it was um and

00:01:54.119 --> 00:02:00.139
like just being in that environment like made a huge you know that just that

00:02:00.139 --> 00:02:06.639
in and of itself is pretty cool um so i mean i i thought it was it was less

00:02:06.639 --> 00:02:10.679
of a thing than i kind of expected to you know like it was a little less um

00:02:10.679 --> 00:02:13.979
intimidating honestly i think pans was like a more,

00:02:14.799 --> 00:02:17.999
like intense environment than worlds was

00:02:17.999 --> 00:02:20.979
um probably just because the venue is tighter

00:02:20.979 --> 00:02:26.699
like the way that venue is set up uh but yeah man um but i'm just rambling at

00:02:26.699 --> 00:02:30.539
this point let's get into it that's that's a good point though it's yeah dude

00:02:30.539 --> 00:02:33.799
i mean it was your first year we'll do the analysis later but since we're on

00:02:33.799 --> 00:02:40.219
the subject um yeah first year like competing a shit ton dude like a full time athlete,

00:02:41.319 --> 00:02:46.359
in a long time too yeah in a long time too the bigger tournaments have this.

00:02:47.639 --> 00:02:51.819
And you definitely handled it well obviously I was there watching and helping

00:02:51.819 --> 00:02:56.359
coach you so I got to see like how you like looked too but,

00:02:57.139 --> 00:03:02.019
like those big tournaments can have like a that intensity and then the nerves

00:03:02.019 --> 00:03:06.839
can be a little amplified for I think for most people it's a reasonable reaction,

00:03:07.539 --> 00:03:12.079
especially if like we just discussed it's your first time running back through

00:03:12.079 --> 00:03:16.099
the circuit again as actively as you were all the activity you had definitely

00:03:16.099 --> 00:03:19.339
helped with what you just said with it not feeling like.

00:03:20.042 --> 00:03:22.982
It's some huge daunting thing it's good this is another tournament it's a

00:03:22.982 --> 00:03:26.342
it's a big tournament but it's another tournament um and

00:03:26.342 --> 00:03:29.662
like you saw like i mean we had this happen to lots of friends this is the name

00:03:29.662 --> 00:03:33.442
of the game dude like i mean we'll get to my story in a minute but like i've

00:03:33.442 --> 00:03:38.682
lost in the first round at every worlds i've gone to before this i haven't been

00:03:38.682 --> 00:03:42.802
competing at every worlds for the last like eight or nine years but enough times

00:03:42.802 --> 00:03:44.202
i was like crap man i gotta like

00:03:44.622 --> 00:03:47.502
you know i gotta deal with this um but it

00:03:47.502 --> 00:03:50.342
ends up just like it's like any other tournament man like you can lose first round you

00:03:50.342 --> 00:03:53.182
can get hurt like things are just gonna happen um you

00:03:53.182 --> 00:03:56.322
might also win out dude like it's just their tournaments right

00:03:56.322 --> 00:03:59.022
so the more activity you have and then

00:03:59.022 --> 00:04:02.002
another goal down the road like this is a long journey

00:04:02.002 --> 00:04:04.822
like that that type of mentality of like i'll

00:04:04.822 --> 00:04:07.862
just keep running it i think helps and um

00:04:07.862 --> 00:04:10.882
yeah it was cool to see that you were very calm and like you were

00:04:10.882 --> 00:04:13.822
very composed this is just like more more of

00:04:13.822 --> 00:04:16.762
the same cool big event and probably for

00:04:16.762 --> 00:04:19.742
you like like you said pans was the first major you

00:04:19.742 --> 00:04:23.182
were doing before that so you may even kind of broke that that's uh

00:04:23.182 --> 00:04:26.062
that that psychology down in that first go around as

00:04:26.062 --> 00:04:31.082
well um i've experienced that oh that big ass tournament kind of kind of vibe

00:04:31.082 --> 00:04:36.142
so uh yeah but but it was it was i mean for me dude i was in vegas i had been

00:04:36.142 --> 00:04:39.102
in vegas for like 11 days which is way too much time to be in vegas you were

00:04:39.102 --> 00:04:43.042
basically a local by the time we got there i've you knew everything i did I

00:04:43.042 --> 00:04:44.302
knew quite a bit. I knew quite a bit.

00:04:44.562 --> 00:04:48.682
I was, uh, yeah, seasoned for the, the Vegas, uh.

00:04:49.551 --> 00:04:52.991
Environment and i i did stay away

00:04:52.991 --> 00:04:55.671
from the strip the entire time i was

00:04:55.671 --> 00:04:58.351
there up until the tournament where i just got a hotel down on the

00:04:58.351 --> 00:05:01.791
strip and said i'm just going to be around the venue and around my people for

00:05:01.791 --> 00:05:06.371
this event which was kind of like i like the vegas strip i just know that i

00:05:06.371 --> 00:05:11.371
shouldn't be on it for 11 days straight oh yeah it's uh i think the last time

00:05:11.371 --> 00:05:15.951
i had been in vegas we did like i think we did like five days on and it was

00:05:15.951 --> 00:05:18.331
on the five days on the strip it was way It's an eternity.

00:05:18.591 --> 00:05:22.391
It's way too long. And it's expensive, man. Like, everything just costs way

00:05:22.391 --> 00:05:25.231
more than it really should, and it's fine quality.

00:05:25.431 --> 00:05:27.731
It's just, like, it's goofy. So I was like, all right, I'm gonna stay off the

00:05:27.731 --> 00:05:32.311
strip, spend less money, stay away from the temptations of whatever the strip

00:05:32.311 --> 00:05:33.691
presents to you, which is a lot.

00:05:33.971 --> 00:05:37.931
And so, yeah, so I did that, and...

00:05:38.632 --> 00:05:41.852
Definitely helped me. I had just like a normal Airbnb type of environment.

00:05:42.012 --> 00:05:45.372
I could cook there. I could like lay around and sleep and get extra sleep if

00:05:45.372 --> 00:05:48.572
I needed without feeling like I needed to get out and walk around out in the sun all day.

00:05:48.992 --> 00:05:51.712
Weather was nice. Weather was nice. Yeah.

00:05:52.612 --> 00:05:59.152
It's much nicer than it is here. Yeah, we came home to like below freezing temperatures.

00:05:59.692 --> 00:06:02.452
Immediately. And dude, it dropped apparently. Like what everyone was telling

00:06:02.452 --> 00:06:06.532
me was that it's been cold, but it got like 10 to 15 degrees colder in the last

00:06:06.532 --> 00:06:11.532
two days. Oh, yeah, it was like the polar vortex came through and cooled everything off. Bring it.

00:06:11.672 --> 00:06:15.752
It's wintertime now. Yeah, it's real winter. Fuck it. Real winter.

00:06:16.692 --> 00:06:20.452
Yeah. But anyways, as I was saying, like, yeah, there were a lot of,

00:06:20.532 --> 00:06:24.212
like, friends of ours, other high-level competitors that we know who some of

00:06:24.212 --> 00:06:27.372
them had, like, first-round, like, tough losses.

00:06:27.412 --> 00:06:30.152
Some of them had, like, competitive matches, didn't go their way.

00:06:30.212 --> 00:06:35.032
A lot of them had success, too. We have a lot of buddies from our area who made

00:06:35.032 --> 00:06:37.952
the podium or won their first world championship. It was cool to see.

00:06:38.432 --> 00:06:39.292
Yeah, it was really cool.

00:06:40.592 --> 00:06:44.772
We also saw some, like, super weird referee stuff.

00:06:45.712 --> 00:06:49.032
Super weird I Learned New Rules.

00:06:49.452 --> 00:06:53.232
Did you, like, you know, like that whole – there were a couple where it was

00:06:53.232 --> 00:06:56.112
like, oh, that's the De La Jiva thing.

00:06:56.612 --> 00:07:01.072
Like, we learned about that apparently if you underhook the leg,

00:07:01.072 --> 00:07:03.932
you have de la jiva and you scoop the leg and then

00:07:03.932 --> 00:07:06.772
lock your hands you're not allowed to hold your de la jiva hook

00:07:06.772 --> 00:07:10.152
anymore so jot that down um jot

00:07:10.152 --> 00:07:18.332
that down but like super weird like very early dqs that like no one wanted to

00:07:18.332 --> 00:07:22.992
like even the person who was on the winning winning end of it was like what

00:07:22.992 --> 00:07:29.892
is happening yeah um so like it was very strange a couple of those and like the rest were just like,

00:07:30.032 --> 00:07:32.452
nope, you're out. Get out of here.

00:07:34.032 --> 00:07:35.452
And some that were.

00:07:36.670 --> 00:07:39.750
Questionable and for people

00:07:39.750 --> 00:07:42.890
we know right like we uh one

00:07:42.890 --> 00:07:46.370
of tim's guys had a slam call a slam dq that was

00:07:46.370 --> 00:07:48.990
like a super questionable at least from what i thought

00:07:48.990 --> 00:07:51.890
it was questionable i barely missed it

00:07:51.890 --> 00:07:55.550
i just like saw tim arguing over it but um you

00:07:55.550 --> 00:07:59.170
know it was a questionable dq um well

00:07:59.170 --> 00:08:01.990
you know just from an arm bar they called a spiking thing

00:08:01.990 --> 00:08:04.610
and wasn't like the guy lifted him up and threw him on

00:08:04.610 --> 00:08:07.570
the ground or anything uh he was trying to extract his

00:08:07.570 --> 00:08:10.470
arm and there was a little bit of elevation but he was clearly just

00:08:10.470 --> 00:08:13.290
trying to pull his arm out it to your point man we've

00:08:13.290 --> 00:08:16.650
talked about this before it's like that that was that's an important call

00:08:16.650 --> 00:08:21.950
out too like and anyone listening like more of the same but it feels even more

00:08:21.950 --> 00:08:24.470
important when you're at the world champion everyone cares a lot about the world

00:08:24.470 --> 00:08:29.630
championships of course but dude you know that that was that happened early

00:08:29.630 --> 00:08:33.150
that happened uh thursday yeah that was a day you compete i I remember that

00:08:33.150 --> 00:08:36.490
was before you went, but that was one of the moments where I was like, all right,

00:08:36.650 --> 00:08:42.350
well, this isn't new, but even more of a reminder that to the extent that you

00:08:42.350 --> 00:08:46.710
want to stay out of scenarios where the referee has to make a call on behalf

00:08:46.710 --> 00:08:48.630
of the match, do the best you can to do that.

00:08:48.810 --> 00:08:52.370
Because you just, again, it's like every tournament, but people are flying from

00:08:52.370 --> 00:08:54.530
all over the world. They're spending their money.

00:08:55.090 --> 00:08:58.090
It's the end of the year. You've trained all year. You've competed all year.

00:08:58.210 --> 00:09:03.730
You're preparing for this. Like, do not put the results of your match in the

00:09:03.730 --> 00:09:05.130
hands of the referee as best as you can.

00:09:05.330 --> 00:09:08.030
That was a tough one where, like, that was just, like, kind of a messed up call.

00:09:08.710 --> 00:09:11.050
And you can't really prevent that to an extent.

00:09:11.724 --> 00:09:13.964
I mean, it's easy in hindsight to say, just don't get in the arm bar.

00:09:14.544 --> 00:09:17.524
Yeah. Yeah. That's obviously part of jujitsu. So that shit happens,

00:09:17.564 --> 00:09:18.944
man. So that, that was a tough one.

00:09:19.364 --> 00:09:23.864
Um, there were some ref, there was a dude in my division who did make the podium,

00:09:23.884 --> 00:09:27.624
but he, and we, we talked about it afterwards. Like I've, I've competed against this dude.

00:09:27.744 --> 00:09:30.964
He's, he's like in his forties, like he's smart, like, or he's just turned 40.

00:09:31.124 --> 00:09:33.624
Excuse me. If he hears this age him more than he is.

00:09:34.084 --> 00:09:37.584
But, um, he was like, dude, like I tell my students, like, don't put yourself

00:09:37.584 --> 00:09:41.424
in the situation. He's like, it's a good lesson. He's like, I live by my, my own lessons. I get it.

00:09:41.984 --> 00:09:44.944
He's a professor, of course, he's a black belt. But he was talking about how

00:09:44.944 --> 00:09:45.904
he didn't give up any points.

00:09:46.004 --> 00:09:49.824
He went 0-0 in the semis and just, you know, he thought he was more active.

00:09:49.824 --> 00:09:53.824
He's like, he, of course, believes that he had earned the ref's decision,

00:09:53.844 --> 00:09:55.464
but he didn't get the ref's decision.

00:09:56.024 --> 00:09:58.164
And so he was like, he was fine with it. He was like, you know,

00:09:58.224 --> 00:10:00.584
I don't love this, but this is, I know this is part of the game.

00:10:00.724 --> 00:10:02.324
Well, and he had a pretty good, like,

00:10:03.109 --> 00:10:07.849
I mean, I guess he had said that the year before he had lost on ref's decision to the same guy.

00:10:08.589 --> 00:10:14.309
And like, he had a really, his look, the way he looked at it too is like, that's my fault.

00:10:14.489 --> 00:10:17.909
Like, I shouldn't have put it there. Like, it shouldn't have been a ref's decision.

00:10:18.369 --> 00:10:23.589
Like, I didn't score. It's not on my opponent that I didn't score to win.

00:10:23.709 --> 00:10:25.949
Like, I didn't put points on the board and win.

00:10:27.109 --> 00:10:29.649
So, like, he had a really professional way of looking at it.

00:10:29.789 --> 00:10:32.669
And like, I mean, accountability matters too, right?

00:10:32.669 --> 00:10:36.629
Right, like, that's actually something that a lot of the people that lost,

00:10:37.249 --> 00:10:40.969
that we know, like, they all had accountability for the, you know, very few.

00:10:42.589 --> 00:10:47.969
Unless they were, like, super contestant of, like, they felt like something

00:10:47.969 --> 00:10:51.829
was done, you know, they felt wronged. Extremely, extraordinarily incorrect.

00:10:52.249 --> 00:10:57.909
But for the most part, everyone was, like, super accountable for their losses.

00:10:57.909 --> 00:11:04.449
Is um the only the only exception was someone uh someone i know was just talking

00:11:04.449 --> 00:11:08.069
about like their i don't want because i think they're contesting it so i'm not

00:11:08.069 --> 00:11:09.789
gonna i don't want to shout them out,

00:11:10.769 --> 00:11:15.509
just in case i don't know how it works um but they uh i mean they were just

00:11:15.509 --> 00:11:20.109
saying that they had some um like there was a weird thing at the end where they

00:11:20.109 --> 00:11:26.769
were like taking away points from him and oh that's weird yeah so like there was a weird uh he he,

00:11:27.407 --> 00:11:30.907
he wasn't awarded advantages for things that the other person was in.

00:11:31.067 --> 00:11:37.167
Like he had advantages taken away and like, it was a very strange, um, in the final too.

00:11:37.487 --> 00:11:42.327
So like, yeah, that's tough. You know, so I'm like, and you don't,

00:11:42.487 --> 00:11:45.147
you don't want that like to be gray either.

00:11:45.367 --> 00:11:49.947
Like, so, um, but yeah, I mean, you know, it is what it is.

00:11:50.187 --> 00:11:54.167
That's, it is what it is. You got people making decisions and, um.

00:11:55.027 --> 00:11:58.067
But like, like the guy in your division said, like just don't put

00:11:58.067 --> 00:12:01.147
it in their hands that's right don't want in the ref's hands like put

00:12:01.147 --> 00:12:05.107
the points on the board and and win um so

00:12:05.107 --> 00:12:07.967
you know that's that's the way it goes uh which you know

00:12:07.967 --> 00:12:10.707
you did a pretty good job of you had a good run you had

00:12:10.707 --> 00:12:14.067
what was it four matches four matches uh you

00:12:14.067 --> 00:12:17.567
had three like very your first match was insanely dominant

00:12:17.567 --> 00:12:20.447
um second match was a

00:12:20.447 --> 00:12:23.487
great match it was uh that was the yeah

00:12:23.487 --> 00:12:26.327
so that one was it was pretty back and forth for a while but you you stuck

00:12:26.327 --> 00:12:29.307
in there and like did a good and like took control when

00:12:29.307 --> 00:12:32.387
it mattered yeah um and then your

00:12:32.387 --> 00:12:35.247
third match you knocked out the number two seed the guy

00:12:35.247 --> 00:12:38.327
was the world champion from the year before by the way oh was he found that

00:12:38.327 --> 00:12:41.867
afterwards he was the number two seed yeah i found that afterwards yeah i just

00:12:41.867 --> 00:12:44.867
saw that he was the number two so i just i wasn't sure he won worlds last year

00:12:44.867 --> 00:12:52.787
but uh yeah yeah so first match was um yeah very very uh like textbook insofar

00:12:52.787 --> 00:12:54.227
as like stuff that I train all the time,

00:12:54.867 --> 00:13:00.687
take down, a guard pass, I control, submission, and, um,

00:13:01.534 --> 00:13:06.974
Yeah, so like right according to plan, second match came out and other dude

00:13:06.974 --> 00:13:11.734
was athletic and like scrappy bro, scrappy dude.

00:13:12.694 --> 00:13:16.114
And I took him down too and then he swept me.

00:13:16.274 --> 00:13:23.674
He had like a very interesting, awkward guard that looking back on the tape,

00:13:23.794 --> 00:13:27.014
which I have looked at now, funny that I felt it was awkward because I kind

00:13:27.014 --> 00:13:28.014
of do the same thing that he does.

00:13:29.074 --> 00:13:31.954
Um he has this like oblique maneuver

00:13:31.954 --> 00:13:35.114
where he's like on his side but he has like a loose butterfly hook

00:13:35.114 --> 00:13:37.734
and an overhook and i do that too i just have never had it

00:13:37.734 --> 00:13:40.414
done to me um and you know

00:13:40.414 --> 00:13:43.274
credit to him for for pulling that off but um yeah he

00:13:43.274 --> 00:13:46.174
and i i think i had gotten an advantage prior

00:13:46.174 --> 00:13:49.094
to that for something so

00:13:49.094 --> 00:13:52.694
it was it was 2-2 after his sweep i believe it was definitely 2-2 but i think

00:13:52.694 --> 00:13:55.534
i had an advantage not that it mattered because at the end of the day i i didn't

00:13:55.534 --> 00:14:01.174
end up scoring enough um it was it was it was definitely my match obviously

00:14:01.174 --> 00:14:04.574
and i won but but i remember thinking to myself like fuck man like good job

00:14:04.574 --> 00:14:06.454
dude and i had to i had to counter right away,

00:14:06.934 --> 00:14:12.494
um and play off my back which is not where i i i want to be but for what it's

00:14:12.494 --> 00:14:16.214
worth i and this is what i tell my guys when i'm coaching too which is like

00:14:16.214 --> 00:14:17.514
if i'm on my back what i'm gonna do,

00:14:18.094 --> 00:14:21.674
all of my activity for my back is to get off of my back as quickly as possible So.

00:14:22.303 --> 00:14:29.323
So, uh, I swept him and then off of the sweep, I had his arm already locked.

00:14:29.463 --> 00:14:33.283
I had his arm locked from the sweep maneuver that I used and I stepped around

00:14:33.283 --> 00:14:37.223
right away. I guess I stepped up into neon belly. They gave me points for that, which I'll take them.

00:14:37.423 --> 00:14:40.543
I wasn't my intention to get neon belly points. Yeah. They gave you the two

00:14:40.543 --> 00:14:43.103
for like the super, it was a super low neon belly.

00:14:43.283 --> 00:14:45.783
But they gave it to me, which I was, I looked, I looked back on that.

00:14:45.863 --> 00:14:46.963
I was like, all right, well, I'll take it.

00:14:47.363 --> 00:14:50.503
Um, I don't know if I really fully earned them, but that's okay. They

00:14:50.503 --> 00:14:53.603
gave to me so i'll take a referee call on you know everything we

00:14:53.603 --> 00:14:56.763
say about referees like occasionally it works out in your favor um and

00:14:56.763 --> 00:14:59.543
i stepped around on that for an arm bar man this arm

00:14:59.543 --> 00:15:02.403
bar you remember this dude i was cranking on this

00:15:02.403 --> 00:15:05.263
guy's arm and i had it like bent and i was like how is this guy not

00:15:05.263 --> 00:15:08.763
fucking tapping to this arm oh dude it it was

00:15:08.763 --> 00:15:11.643
so tight so tight

00:15:11.643 --> 00:15:14.843
but dude was cool man he like he stayed calm he

00:15:14.843 --> 00:15:17.603
didn't like i mean he didn't want to be in the arm bar

00:15:17.603 --> 00:15:20.683
for sure but he was not tapping so uh well anyways

00:15:20.683 --> 00:15:23.823
he he rolled out of the armbar after i was just blasting this

00:15:23.823 --> 00:15:26.763
and i was i mean i wanted this submission so i was like fuck all

00:15:26.763 --> 00:15:29.763
right whatever fine uh and then um he scrambled up

00:15:29.763 --> 00:15:33.683
and so i was on my back and i and i kind of scrambled up and out of that too

00:15:33.683 --> 00:15:37.523
and i wrestled up from there and i think they i don't get points for that because

00:15:37.523 --> 00:15:40.443
i was already on top at the beginning of that initiation but i came back on

00:15:40.443 --> 00:15:44.623
top and then passed his guard got to side control and he tried to do that goofy

00:15:44.623 --> 00:15:47.523
maneuver again as i was passing his guard and i this time I was not having it.

00:15:48.243 --> 00:15:51.403
I say goofy maneuver. It's a nice maneuver. It's credit to him.

00:15:51.543 --> 00:15:53.763
I just didn't want it done to be twice. Yeah.

00:15:54.143 --> 00:15:57.363
So I maneuvered around. I was like attacking his back as time went on.

00:15:57.503 --> 00:16:00.743
I had enough points in the board. It was definitely my match. My match.

00:16:02.243 --> 00:16:05.943
And then, yeah, third round. So by the way, there were 25 people on a bracket,

00:16:06.063 --> 00:16:09.563
which is a decent-sized bracket. It's fairly big for a tournament like this.

00:16:09.883 --> 00:16:15.823
And so it was going to be, I had to win three times to make it to the podium. Um,

00:16:16.731 --> 00:16:19.651
To get, you know, in the, yeah, to get into the semifinals match.

00:16:19.811 --> 00:16:25.471
And so that was when I drew the guy who was in number two seed. I was the 11th seed.

00:16:26.651 --> 00:16:30.311
Everyone else who was in the semis and finals, it was always like,

00:16:30.391 --> 00:16:34.131
it was one through four minus the two seed after I took him out.

00:16:35.711 --> 00:16:38.331
And so anyways, me and this guy, you know, we tie up or whatever.

00:16:38.871 --> 00:16:40.391
And he pulls guard on me immediately.

00:16:41.191 --> 00:16:44.151
And we had a very, like, I would say, I would call it like a technical,

00:16:45.171 --> 00:16:49.151
strategic match of him trying to keep me confined in his guard which he did

00:16:49.151 --> 00:16:55.131
do for the majority of the match quite well um and then me trying to neutralize

00:16:55.131 --> 00:16:57.411
whatever he wanted to do from guard.

00:16:58.551 --> 00:17:01.451
Um and both of us i mean at this point like we've been fighting for like

00:17:01.451 --> 00:17:04.691
both of us have fought for like almost 15 minutes and so

00:17:04.691 --> 00:17:07.631
we're being very thoughtful about our energy knowing that there's two more matches after

00:17:07.631 --> 00:17:10.351
this just you know to get to the finals so it's like all right we got

00:17:10.351 --> 00:17:13.111
to be like it's starting to test your like endurance a little bit

00:17:13.111 --> 00:17:15.811
um anyways so we're

00:17:15.811 --> 00:17:18.931
both playing it really smart i'm like trying to drive my knee through this guy's ass

00:17:18.931 --> 00:17:21.591
dude i'm like this is like that's how i that's how i pass the last two

00:17:21.591 --> 00:17:24.271
dudes guards like it's just that's how i break guard like i'm i'm putting

00:17:24.271 --> 00:17:27.431
knee in asshole and this guy was like i don't

00:17:27.431 --> 00:17:30.931
know how he was pretty comfortable with that so my knee's

00:17:30.931 --> 00:17:34.631
up there i'm like driving it through his taint um

00:17:34.631 --> 00:17:37.511
while also trying to keep my base and my balance and

00:17:37.511 --> 00:17:40.811
he's actually kind of he he keeps his legs locked and

00:17:40.811 --> 00:17:44.291
like in retrospect i'm trying to think like i don't know this dude was taller than

00:17:44.291 --> 00:17:47.231
me he must have been maybe a little bit taller than me for his leg the length

00:17:47.231 --> 00:17:50.631
of his legs to be able to stay closed while my knee was grinding through his

00:17:50.631 --> 00:17:56.091
shit yeah i mean you were basically in combat base and he had his closed guard

00:17:56.091 --> 00:18:01.851
was intact yeah for a solid like dropped it lower too he definitely whatever

00:18:01.851 --> 00:18:05.551
he did it was a little bit lower and so like maybe it was just around you know whatever.

00:18:06.031 --> 00:18:09.931
Yeah, whatever he was doing, it worked well for him because he was able to retain

00:18:09.931 --> 00:18:14.571
his guard while I had my combat base, like you said, my knee in his gear. Yeah.

00:18:14.966 --> 00:18:18.606
Um, but eventually like it, it broke. Like I started to apply enough pressure

00:18:18.606 --> 00:18:20.046
that he was like, all right, I can't keep doing this.

00:18:20.186 --> 00:18:23.866
And he started like, we were like, the clock was toning down.

00:18:24.066 --> 00:18:26.446
Like it was like going down. It was like, you know, three minute mark,

00:18:26.686 --> 00:18:31.586
three 30 mark, three 45 mark. And we're running out of time and he needs, it's zero to zero.

00:18:32.886 --> 00:18:36.026
And, um, the referee let us, let us go like two black belts.

00:18:36.046 --> 00:18:37.406
He's like letting us, letting us play the game.

00:18:37.506 --> 00:18:40.186
Like I, I wasn't sure if he was going to call a stalling and either,

00:18:40.306 --> 00:18:41.746
actually the other dude did get a stalling call.

00:18:42.426 --> 00:18:45.086
Um or was it the second was it my my semis match the guy got a

00:18:45.086 --> 00:18:47.846
song call the doesn't matter it was not

00:18:47.846 --> 00:18:51.106
that man it was the other it was a semis match yeah no big

00:18:51.106 --> 00:18:56.326
deal but um yeah yeah because i the guy was working i will say but like so like

00:18:56.326 --> 00:18:59.546
i was trying i i of course in my opinion thought i was working a little bit

00:18:59.546 --> 00:19:03.106
harder to break and exit his guard i was doing what i needed to do um it was

00:19:03.106 --> 00:19:07.406
just taking more time to develop but eventually i i do end up driving my knee

00:19:07.406 --> 00:19:09.926
through enough for him to open up his guard,

00:19:10.086 --> 00:19:14.246
at which point he's starting to kind of toss his weight around.

00:19:14.646 --> 00:19:18.866
Right before I was able to pop his guard open, he's really starting to shift

00:19:18.866 --> 00:19:24.726
his hips log as I'm still confined within that V or whatever loop of his closed guards.

00:19:24.746 --> 00:19:28.586
He's trying to get some type of... I think he was trying to play for an activity

00:19:28.586 --> 00:19:31.826
advantage that he could use for a ref's decision.

00:19:32.246 --> 00:19:35.986
Not a bad call, but there wasn't enough there for him to really gain any the

00:19:35.986 --> 00:19:36.926
actual advantage over me?

00:19:37.166 --> 00:19:43.286
Yeah, his, so I was coaching right next to his coach. He had like three of them yelling at him.

00:19:44.086 --> 00:19:49.166
But they were basically just telling him to be, so like every time he just moved, they were like,

00:19:49.949 --> 00:19:53.509
coaching in retrospect to try to influence the

00:19:53.509 --> 00:19:56.629
ref yeah i did it later and i started yelling at

00:19:56.629 --> 00:19:59.909
yeah i was i was doing a lot of counter coaching so

00:19:59.909 --> 00:20:04.369
that uh so that because tim and i were both yelling at you in that one yep um

00:20:04.369 --> 00:20:08.989
shout out to tim for jumping over to help and so i was like letting i was like

00:20:08.989 --> 00:20:11.989
all right i'll let tim throw some tactical advice and i'm gonna just counter

00:20:11.989 --> 00:20:16.369
coach these people that's good and so so they had a team we had a team yeah

00:20:16.369 --> 00:20:19.349
dude you're you're right And by the way, I don't blame them for doing that. I do that too.

00:20:19.569 --> 00:20:21.729
I try to influence the judges as much as I can. Because again,

00:20:21.909 --> 00:20:24.269
what we said earlier, it's like, you got to do, you got to play every hand you got.

00:20:24.729 --> 00:20:28.529
So yeah, they're trying to do that. And so he's kind of playing these games,

00:20:28.629 --> 00:20:29.209
trying to move me around.

00:20:29.369 --> 00:20:33.109
I think they just, they knew they were trying to like stir up like some type

00:20:33.109 --> 00:20:35.849
of head nod activity wise to get the referee on their side.

00:20:36.349 --> 00:20:39.829
No problem. So it's about like a minute left. And this is when I open his guard

00:20:39.829 --> 00:20:42.269
and I'm like, all right, if I don't score, like I'm going to lose this match.

00:20:42.329 --> 00:20:43.769
Like it's, I have to do something.

00:20:43.869 --> 00:20:46.729
I'm assuming like, I just assume like if this goes to the referee decision,

00:20:46.789 --> 00:20:50.609
of course, i could get it but like i'm assuming i'm not going to and it's especially

00:20:50.609 --> 00:20:54.409
when like they've pulled guards so like they initially they technically initiated

00:20:54.409 --> 00:20:58.669
ground like it's you have to kind of think that way too when you're on the end

00:20:58.669 --> 00:21:01.589
when you're competing because it's like what lewis was talking about the guy

00:21:01.589 --> 00:21:04.209
we were discussing you know like what he was saying about like dude don't put

00:21:04.209 --> 00:21:06.769
yourself in the situation so here i am holding myself accountable to that.

00:21:07.329 --> 00:21:11.289
And um anyways right so the guard does open up this guy's starting to open up

00:21:11.289 --> 00:21:13.749
a little bit more i think he kind of knows he's like all right i better do something

00:21:13.749 --> 00:21:20.149
has to happen he starts to open up a little bit to try to inspire some type of definitive action,

00:21:20.469 --> 00:21:25.969
at which point where I'm in this open, kind of like headquarters knee cut situation.

00:21:25.969 --> 00:21:27.629
I do get chest to chest pressure on him.

00:21:27.669 --> 00:21:32.249
He's really trying to shield out and stop me with his hips and his hand,

00:21:32.329 --> 00:21:35.729
and it just ended up spring-loading me into a pass, and I blasted through his guard.

00:21:36.419 --> 00:21:41.819
And I got very definitive chest-chest and then side control pressure and my three points.

00:21:42.379 --> 00:21:44.139
And I'm like, all right, in my head, I'm like, that's the match.

00:21:44.239 --> 00:21:45.999
Like, I've got this. All I got to do is not be a dumbass.

00:21:46.939 --> 00:21:50.259
And I'm in side control. Because of everything I just said, I have like really

00:21:50.259 --> 00:21:52.659
sticky chest pressure. I can start threatening some attacks from here.

00:21:52.739 --> 00:21:53.739
I'm going to start like pushing his elbow.

00:21:54.019 --> 00:21:56.479
I'm using my forehead to kind of like move his arm around. I'm thinking maybe

00:21:56.479 --> 00:21:58.519
I'm like, whatever I can do to like make this guy sweat.

00:21:58.639 --> 00:22:01.519
And I wasn't expecting to get like an Americana, but I'm like,

00:22:01.579 --> 00:22:03.479
I'm going to threaten this Americana. I'm going to push his wrist around.

00:22:03.559 --> 00:22:06.459
I'm going to let him know that like he's, I'm not just going to sit here. Yeah.

00:22:06.955 --> 00:22:09.455
I started punching his elbow across the ceiling and I had an arm choke.

00:22:09.615 --> 00:22:11.135
You called that out. You're like, no, ref.

00:22:11.415 --> 00:22:13.615
Because I think at that point, that's when they're like, he stole him.

00:22:13.675 --> 00:22:15.075
I had just gotten there. Yeah.

00:22:15.295 --> 00:22:18.695
Which is hilarious, but that's no problem. They were yelling the stalling and

00:22:18.695 --> 00:22:21.015
I was like, yeah, keep working that arm across.

00:22:21.195 --> 00:22:24.195
Keep working that arm across. Go for the head and arm. Just trying to like.

00:22:24.255 --> 00:22:27.035
Luckily, we had a good referee who's like seen enough shit. Yeah.

00:22:27.255 --> 00:22:30.195
He's like, yeah, yeah, it's fine. He's not going to be like overly.

00:22:30.355 --> 00:22:31.355
At that point, it was definitive.

00:22:31.595 --> 00:22:34.135
I was like, I'm going to win. Well, even if he did call stalling,

00:22:34.255 --> 00:22:35.675
it's like, dude, there's 30 seconds left.

00:22:35.755 --> 00:22:40.255
You're 3-0. It doesn't matter if you get the minus, like, if you have that one stall call.

00:22:40.475 --> 00:22:43.175
Yeah, but there were any stall calls, and I wasn't stalling.

00:22:43.315 --> 00:22:44.575
But, yes, I'm with it, brother.

00:22:45.335 --> 00:22:50.415
Anyways, yeah, so I hold that position. He's kind of exposing his back.

00:22:50.515 --> 00:22:52.575
I start threatening a back take, but time runs out. I wait.

00:22:53.435 --> 00:22:56.095
Yippee. I took him out. Dude won the Worlds last year.

00:22:57.075 --> 00:23:00.455
All right, so that's that. And then I go into the semis.

00:23:01.075 --> 00:23:04.835
And at this point, fatigue's kind of kicking in a little bit,

00:23:04.935 --> 00:23:08.415
right? I, you know, interestingly, um, me and homeboy tie up,

00:23:08.415 --> 00:23:10.155
we, you know, he pulls guard quickly.

00:23:10.535 --> 00:23:14.415
He, he runs up the scoreboard early on me. And this was the problem for me.

00:23:14.455 --> 00:23:17.135
Cause like I said, I was, I was feeling fatigued, but I, as,

00:23:17.255 --> 00:23:20.775
as the match went on, I actually felt like I'm like, dude, I'm, I always feel fatigued.

00:23:20.835 --> 00:23:23.555
So it was kind of normal credit to like the work me and Asim do.

00:23:23.755 --> 00:23:26.675
Granted, we have homework to do in terms of keeping me like keeping that pop,

00:23:26.835 --> 00:23:28.415
that snap, that power fresh.

00:23:28.655 --> 00:23:31.375
So I don't put myself in that situation. Cause this is what I also coach my

00:23:31.375 --> 00:23:35.215
guys to not do, which is try not to put yourself in the situation where the

00:23:35.215 --> 00:23:37.655
score is working against you and the clock is working against you because

00:23:38.035 --> 00:23:41.575
that's ultimately what happened to me was dude dude got his points up on me

00:23:41.575 --> 00:23:45.695
early and i was my reactions ultimately ended up working for me but they were

00:23:45.695 --> 00:23:46.775
late they were late in the game

00:23:47.195 --> 00:23:50.415
um dude ran up the scoreboard i ended up reversing him because he mounted me

00:23:50.415 --> 00:23:53.435
he passed my guard he mounted me and i'm down on points like a lot i want to

00:23:53.435 --> 00:23:56.335
say that's like a 10 point differential or something yeah i reverse them you

00:23:56.335 --> 00:23:57.675
don't get points for a reversal and.

00:23:58.700 --> 00:24:01.360
I'm on top, finally. I mean, this is the first time I'm in like a,

00:24:01.740 --> 00:24:04.780
I'd been in a bad position for a good two and a half, three minutes of the match.

00:24:05.160 --> 00:24:08.220
And now like a minute 20 left, I'm on top. And I'm like, all right.

00:24:08.300 --> 00:24:11.240
Like, and I can hear Tam, I can hear you guys being like, yo, we got to do some shit.

00:24:11.520 --> 00:24:13.600
And in my head, I'm like, fuck, if I don't submit this guy, like,

00:24:13.680 --> 00:24:15.740
I don't know how I'm going to get. I mean, I know how to get 10 points,

00:24:15.820 --> 00:24:17.980
but I don't think it's going to happen in about 45 seconds.

00:24:18.340 --> 00:24:21.520
So I'm starting to think through what are some sub potential options.

00:24:21.720 --> 00:24:23.180
So I reverse him. I'm in his close guard.

00:24:23.380 --> 00:24:26.600
Again, knee through asshole. It works. I pop open his guard.

00:24:26.760 --> 00:24:29.300
I grab his leg. I start to go for a straight-and-clock, but he extracts it,

00:24:29.340 --> 00:24:32.220
so I kind of come up, and I start passing his guard.

00:24:32.780 --> 00:24:35.520
He exposes his back. He turtles out. Now there's like maybe 28,

00:24:35.620 --> 00:24:38.260
30 seconds left, and I know this.

00:24:38.320 --> 00:24:39.920
I know the clock's on, and I'm thinking to myself, I'm like,

00:24:40.020 --> 00:24:43.980
all right, man, I'll get to the hindsight thing once the match is over here in a second.

00:24:45.080 --> 00:24:48.840
This dude was tired. He had gassed out, but he was up, so it doesn't even matter

00:24:48.840 --> 00:24:49.780
if he gassed out at this point.

00:24:51.240 --> 00:24:54.140
Weirdly enough, even though I was tired, I was like, I'm the one attacking this dude.

00:24:54.140 --> 00:24:56.920
I'm on offense here like cool like i'm gonna

00:24:56.920 --> 00:24:59.700
finish like big picture wise it

00:24:59.700 --> 00:25:02.460
doesn't matter he made it in the finals i did not he did his

00:25:02.460 --> 00:25:05.440
job he did his damn job and even though he gassed out like

00:25:05.440 --> 00:25:08.100
he had it he managed the match well enough so that it

00:25:08.100 --> 00:25:10.960
worked out in his favor but in my head this is a silver lining thing i'm like

00:25:10.960 --> 00:25:13.700
i'm still on offense i'm still going i'm gonna finish this position i'm gonna

00:25:13.700 --> 00:25:16.760
finish this match like trying to attack a student from like one of the best

00:25:16.760 --> 00:25:20.000
positions so like all right like you know hey you know what silver lining there

00:25:20.000 --> 00:25:23.200
um but so i'm hunting for a back take I'm trying to like grab his head and shit

00:25:23.200 --> 00:25:27.000
he's just like fucking holding out and you know I'm going for it my attack was rushed,

00:25:27.930 --> 00:25:31.050
as this, again, this is why I tell people not to do this shit because the clock's

00:25:31.050 --> 00:25:32.510
working against me. I'm making mistakes.

00:25:32.670 --> 00:25:36.770
I'm not executing as well as maybe if I had 90 seconds or two minutes to go,

00:25:36.810 --> 00:25:38.470
I could have had a crisp back take.

00:25:38.710 --> 00:25:41.750
I could have had a crisp and I could show, but so I'm rushing it, man.

00:25:42.170 --> 00:25:45.430
Clock runs out, you know, we high five, we knuckle, you know,

00:25:45.510 --> 00:25:47.530
credit to that guy. He wins the match. Good job for him, man.

00:25:47.630 --> 00:25:49.430
That's that, that was it. That was the run for me.

00:25:50.030 --> 00:25:54.910
Um, but yeah, like, like I said earlier, um, you know, I'd had a bunch of bad

00:25:54.910 --> 00:25:56.710
experiences. I say bad, just like losses.

00:25:57.030 --> 00:25:59.890
Not that big of a deal. I've never been injured or anything in Worlds.

00:25:59.910 --> 00:26:03.550
People have had much worse. There were guys and gals getting their legs destroyed.

00:26:03.770 --> 00:26:04.810
We'll talk about that in a minute.

00:26:05.930 --> 00:26:08.310
My quote-unquote bad experiences, there's just losses. Like,

00:26:08.370 --> 00:26:10.010
big fucking deal. You learn to deal with that shit.

00:26:10.150 --> 00:26:14.590
But I was happy to, like, finally not go out first round and lose in Worlds again.

00:26:15.250 --> 00:26:19.630
Make a good run and a good division. Like, everyone on the podium,

00:26:19.930 --> 00:26:24.690
the other three dudes were, like, either pans or existing world champions or

00:26:24.690 --> 00:26:27.210
medalists, like high-level guys. We had a really competitive division.

00:26:27.650 --> 00:26:31.510
Like I said, the guy I beat in the quarters to make it to the semis was the

00:26:31.510 --> 00:26:33.490
prior year's world champion.

00:26:34.430 --> 00:26:37.890
And I knew it was going to be competitive division, but I had a couple other

00:26:37.890 --> 00:26:41.590
dudes come up to me and be like, damn, dude, like your old bracket was nasty this year.

00:26:41.630 --> 00:26:44.990
I had one buddy who I competed against earlier this year who dropped down to

00:26:44.990 --> 00:26:45.450
a different weight class.

00:26:45.570 --> 00:26:48.330
He ended up winning his weight class. He won furtherweight. And he told me afterwards,

00:26:48.390 --> 00:26:51.330
this was the most competitive year lightweight. So I was like,

00:26:51.370 --> 00:26:52.990
all right, man, high-five knuckles. I'll take it.

00:26:53.710 --> 00:26:55.510
So yeah, good bracket, good run.

00:26:56.750 --> 00:27:00.510
And I wasn't injured. My calf cramped up a couple times. My calf's been a little

00:27:00.510 --> 00:27:04.270
sore for the last 48, 72 hours, but big fucking deal, man.

00:27:05.010 --> 00:27:06.710
Yeah, I mean, that's, you know,

00:27:07.676 --> 00:27:11.696
That's about, you knocked out, you knocked out the previous world champ.

00:27:11.936 --> 00:27:16.776
You, I mean, I believe the guy that you lost to in the semis,

00:27:16.976 --> 00:27:18.876
you had him so gassed that he lost in the final.

00:27:19.136 --> 00:27:21.476
Yeah. So, you know, small victories.

00:27:21.816 --> 00:27:23.856
We'll take them. Nah, whatever. Yeah, it's just. But, you know,

00:27:23.976 --> 00:27:28.576
like, it's, it was a great showing. And, like, honestly, like,

00:27:29.276 --> 00:27:33.736
even though I didn't win, like, the work that we've been putting in with the

00:27:33.736 --> 00:27:35.756
team, like, it made a huge difference.

00:27:35.976 --> 00:27:42.076
Huge difference, man. Um, like just, I could feel it from earlier in the year

00:27:42.076 --> 00:27:45.476
until now, like just the difference in like strength and everything,

00:27:45.696 --> 00:27:51.096
like ability to be explosive for longer, you know, it may, I mean,

00:27:51.156 --> 00:27:52.636
in my match, it made a difference.

00:27:52.856 --> 00:27:58.016
I just made a bunch of mental errors, but not a bunch, one major mental error.

00:27:58.436 --> 00:28:03.096
Um, but like, you know, being able to maintain a two and a half minute long

00:28:03.096 --> 00:28:05.436
scramble, uh, You know, like,

00:28:06.376 --> 00:28:12.436
having that cardio capability and, like, come off the mat and not huffing and

00:28:12.436 --> 00:28:15.536
puffing at all, you know, like, it makes a huge difference.

00:28:17.436 --> 00:28:24.016
So, you know, and, yeah, man, like, I guess I'll, I can go over mine now, but.

00:28:24.496 --> 00:28:31.716
Yeah, do it. Yeah, so we had, so I, in my first match, um, I came in number

00:28:31.716 --> 00:28:35.536
two seed, uh, finished the year number four.

00:28:36.436 --> 00:28:40.796
So, uh, but went into the tournament number two seed.

00:28:41.136 --> 00:28:46.596
Um, I had a matchup. So I had buy to the second round of qualifiers.

00:28:47.336 --> 00:28:54.196
Um, but we get out there, guy tries to shoot off the, uh, off the slap bums.

00:28:54.196 --> 00:29:01.456
That was unexpected yeah especially like the data we had on him was he pulls so like,

00:29:02.454 --> 00:29:05.334
you had good on him, but you know, like it was fine.

00:29:05.474 --> 00:29:10.254
Like I, I mean, I rolled him through it and we ended it, which they gave him

00:29:10.254 --> 00:29:14.614
an advantage for the shot. I guess apparently you can shoot and get advantages now.

00:29:14.874 --> 00:29:19.714
Um, didn't matter in the end. So whatever, but, uh, but like he shot,

00:29:19.814 --> 00:29:23.754
we, you know, we high fived and then he pretty much blast doubled right off of that.

00:29:24.074 --> 00:29:28.554
Um, I rolled him through actually back into a, you know, take down a temp of

00:29:28.554 --> 00:29:31.234
my own technically. Yeah. Um, um,

00:29:31.955 --> 00:29:36.335
They brought us back to the center. Then I was like, all right,

00:29:36.775 --> 00:29:39.295
let's do it then. I thought he was going to stand up, and then he pulls guard.

00:29:40.535 --> 00:29:43.435
So it was, you know, I guess it's good gamemanship, honestly.

00:29:43.715 --> 00:29:49.455
Like, he had me ready to bang it out on the feet, and then he just pulled on the second attempt.

00:29:49.595 --> 00:29:51.875
So, you know, he caught me.

00:29:53.795 --> 00:29:58.995
But off of that, he pulled guard. I mean, I started working a pass, like, super quick.

00:29:58.995 --> 00:30:02.195
Had a really had a really near pass actually

00:30:02.195 --> 00:30:05.475
off of that um almost had north

00:30:05.475 --> 00:30:12.295
south um but he had the head off the pass or no that was later so uh dropped

00:30:12.295 --> 00:30:17.475
in he turtled up that's what it was he turtled up after that um we had like

00:30:17.475 --> 00:30:23.915
a little scramble uh he threw me off the front when i was.

00:30:24.135 --> 00:30:27.275
Take his back i came back

00:30:27.275 --> 00:30:30.395
up and then took him down off a

00:30:30.395 --> 00:30:33.155
single leg uh but he had my

00:30:33.155 --> 00:30:36.055
head sort of he didn't have his hands locked but he had his arm

00:30:36.055 --> 00:30:39.555
over my head um and in

00:30:39.555 --> 00:30:42.815
transition from that he turtled again but

00:30:42.815 --> 00:30:45.555
i mean i was there for a little bit um trying to hold him

00:30:45.555 --> 00:30:49.035
but looking back like hindsight that's

00:30:49.035 --> 00:30:51.775
probably i probably should have decided to slow it down and

00:30:51.775 --> 00:30:55.295
settle there um versus continuing to

00:30:55.295 --> 00:30:57.995
try to to go like 270 to the other side i should

00:30:57.995 --> 00:31:01.735
just settled and just let him hold my head um and

00:31:01.735 --> 00:31:05.655
just wait it out until he takes it off um but

00:31:05.655 --> 00:31:08.515
then he in that

00:31:08.515 --> 00:31:11.435
transition he turtles i go

00:31:11.435 --> 00:31:14.275
he i was super high the way that he came

00:31:14.275 --> 00:31:18.055
up so i tried to just put my hooks in um

00:31:18.055 --> 00:31:25.775
and then scramble ensues i end up in bottom turtle with the ankles i have his

00:31:25.775 --> 00:31:31.555
leg like in like a super low single um and i was trying to decide like which

00:31:31.555 --> 00:31:36.575
way to go i picked the wrong way uh so i went to like.

00:31:37.375 --> 00:31:41.155
Pull it towards me rather than trying to circle out one way or the other.

00:31:41.535 --> 00:31:48.995
Um, ended up getting him up. So I lifted the leg and, um, as I lifted,

00:31:48.995 --> 00:31:51.175
I didn't realize he had this arm.

00:31:51.315 --> 00:31:54.375
I like watched it a few times. I didn't realize he had my right arm.

00:31:54.615 --> 00:31:59.115
So as I lifted, he like pulled me into a crucifix, like just pulled my arms apart.

00:31:59.315 --> 00:32:03.375
And then he ended up getting the arm across. I tried to rotate out of it.

00:32:03.535 --> 00:32:06.775
And then he ended up, I mean, it was deep. my throat hurt like the rest of the

00:32:06.775 --> 00:32:11.375
weekend he had a nice deep deep joke on it but you know it's one of those things

00:32:11.375 --> 00:32:16.395
like when you have like a super mobile scrambly game anyways.

00:32:18.275 --> 00:32:19.035
That like,

00:32:19.982 --> 00:32:23.222
sometimes those scrambles do come down to like who who

00:32:23.222 --> 00:32:26.502
ends up where like in whatever moment it stops

00:32:26.502 --> 00:32:29.342
right like because sometimes you're you're both just kind

00:32:29.342 --> 00:32:32.062
of trying to grab stuff and it gets a little funky and you're both kind

00:32:32.062 --> 00:32:36.062
of living in like that weird motion um

00:32:36.062 --> 00:32:39.722
and like we kind of talked about it like i'm really

00:32:39.722 --> 00:32:45.342
comfortable with it and that can also play against me because i'm okay with

00:32:45.342 --> 00:32:50.622
having these like funky scrambles um and i'm comfortable being in those weird

00:32:50.622 --> 00:32:54.762
positions because i know i can you'll fight i can fight out of it and not get

00:32:54.762 --> 00:32:59.042
scored on and like stuff like that like i know how to turn those into non-scoring positions.

00:33:00.002 --> 00:33:02.882
Um but i mean it really just came

00:33:02.882 --> 00:33:06.102
down to who settled in the

00:33:06.102 --> 00:33:09.082
right at the right time and like i just picked the wrong time to

00:33:09.082 --> 00:33:11.802
try to stop the scramble because like i

00:33:11.802 --> 00:33:14.642
had a point where i was in a position to

00:33:14.642 --> 00:33:19.782
score if i decided to settle and stop there um so like it was just yeah just

00:33:19.782 --> 00:33:24.822
looking back it was just a bad decision but it is what it is someone has to

00:33:24.822 --> 00:33:26.802
win right um yeah someone has

00:33:26.802 --> 00:33:32.902
to lose too and uh but overall like looking back on it there was a lot of,

00:33:33.662 --> 00:33:39.262
corrections that we in that even though it was a short match there were a lot

00:33:39.262 --> 00:33:44.982
of corrections from other matches so things that i had it corrected on like

00:33:44.982 --> 00:33:48.002
other losses in that loss so like overall,

00:33:48.482 --> 00:33:50.722
and we'll talk about it when we go into analysis,

00:33:51.462 --> 00:33:55.082
on the next episode, but like, so stay tuned.

00:33:55.462 --> 00:34:02.462
But like overall, like, we were there. Like, I got out there. I did the match.

00:34:03.222 --> 00:34:04.882
You know, the...

00:34:06.236 --> 00:34:12.816
The tournament didn't overwhelm me. Like, just lost another match. It's just what it is.

00:34:13.436 --> 00:34:17.676
So, like, overall, like, pretty – it was decent, you know?

00:34:18.176 --> 00:34:21.736
Do I wish I won? Yeah, obviously. Like, everyone would. But,

00:34:21.756 --> 00:34:27.596
you know, like, it was – I lost just doing jiu-jitsu and nothing – like,

00:34:27.676 --> 00:34:30.436
nothing else. Like, there wasn't anything else that, like –.

00:34:31.694 --> 00:34:35.994
Caused me, like, I know at PANS, I psyched myself out and like,

00:34:36.114 --> 00:34:44.614
I, I lost PANS to PANS, not like, I just was more nervous than I need to be.

00:34:44.774 --> 00:34:47.194
And like, just the environment and everything kind of overwhelmed me.

00:34:47.274 --> 00:34:51.674
And then like, but that was gone at this. Like, I wasn't worried about it.

00:34:51.834 --> 00:34:55.114
Like just went out there and did jujitsu and happened to lose.

00:34:55.254 --> 00:34:59.794
And so like, you know, it's just one of those things that, Hey, you know, it happens.

00:34:59.894 --> 00:35:02.874
And like you said, it's, that's the best way to lose yeah you're actually

00:35:02.874 --> 00:35:05.974
doing it instead of like you said like the circumstances kind

00:35:05.974 --> 00:35:08.914
of pulling you away from the game

00:35:08.914 --> 00:35:11.974
it's just the game yeah um you know it

00:35:11.974 --> 00:35:15.014
was i was able to like be present in the moment compete

00:35:15.014 --> 00:35:18.794
and just do the damn thing right and you

00:35:18.794 --> 00:35:21.574
know someone has to win someone has to lose it's a game that's

00:35:21.574 --> 00:35:24.934
how it works guess what there's gonna be another one of these things next year

00:35:24.934 --> 00:35:27.894
every year in fucking vegas and there's gonna be a million events

00:35:27.894 --> 00:35:31.094
before that yeah there's plenty of other opportunities there's

00:35:31.094 --> 00:35:34.654
more fights to come um and then andrea so

00:35:34.654 --> 00:35:37.654
we keep going down the list um

00:35:37.654 --> 00:35:41.734
but you know i i figured we should talk about her she was on the show we had

00:35:41.734 --> 00:35:46.474
her she was one of our first guests yeah um and you know she was part of the

00:35:46.474 --> 00:35:52.334
part of the squad for the weekend um but yeah she uh she had her brown belt

00:35:52.334 --> 00:35:57.034
debut debuting at a new belt rank at Worlds, which is crazy.

00:35:57.634 --> 00:35:59.054
Not really. She did great.

00:35:59.674 --> 00:36:03.294
But, you know, she went out, she went a full six, and, like.

00:36:03.954 --> 00:36:06.694
She looked great out there. I mean, it was...

00:36:07.214 --> 00:36:11.534
She lost by two on the day, and, like, she honestly could have...

00:36:12.637 --> 00:36:16.657
You know, we downloaded with her afterwards. Like, it literally just came down

00:36:16.657 --> 00:36:19.717
to she should have pulled sooner was her analysis of it.

00:36:20.737 --> 00:36:25.497
You know, we're not saying we think that was kind of what she felt like she should have done.

00:36:25.597 --> 00:36:29.837
And, like, honestly, I would think that if she did, she probably wins that match.

00:36:30.057 --> 00:36:32.977
Yep. It was competitive, and it was razor thin.

00:36:33.137 --> 00:36:35.477
It was her first event. And, like, we talked about it. It's,

00:36:35.557 --> 00:36:36.637
you know, the biggest event of the year.

00:36:36.697 --> 00:36:39.677
So there's, I think, a little bit of, like, on both sides, like,

00:36:39.717 --> 00:36:41.737
a little bit of, like, easing of the pressure.

00:36:41.737 --> 00:36:44.737
It's like hey it's your first one happens to also be worlds no

00:36:44.737 --> 00:36:48.297
big deal first one at browns on her first tournament but but

00:36:48.297 --> 00:36:50.957
yeah man um so there's like it's kind of

00:36:50.957 --> 00:36:53.877
a duality of like there's going to be some pressure but it's also like not that

00:36:53.877 --> 00:36:56.777
much pressure let's see how you do it's your first brown belt tournament and i

00:36:56.777 --> 00:36:59.737
think it was a good experience for her to see that like in and

00:36:59.737 --> 00:37:04.257
like you said that was her strategic analysis which i think makes a lot of sense

00:37:04.257 --> 00:37:10.717
very smart for her to uh kind of draw that conclusion and um i think the biggest

00:37:10.717 --> 00:37:14.197
thing was being like it's kind of like seeing like yo like look how close this

00:37:14.197 --> 00:37:17.597
match is she went the distance she the other lady like,

00:37:18.117 --> 00:37:21.817
just scored a takedown early and like andrea said that she wanted to get to

00:37:21.817 --> 00:37:24.837
her guard anyways if she just initiated that from from the jump well now there's

00:37:24.837 --> 00:37:29.097
no points and she has an entire that changes everything right if a person like

00:37:29.097 --> 00:37:31.337
like what i said earlier like the dude's got the lead.

00:37:32.091 --> 00:37:34.671
Or a lady has a lead, like their decision making then kind of like,

00:37:35.151 --> 00:37:39.051
the rest of the points become more of a luxury than a requirement.

00:37:39.051 --> 00:37:41.751
So like if she pulls guard on this gal and this gal's got no points,

00:37:42.211 --> 00:37:44.451
does the other person start like rushing things and make things happen?

00:37:44.531 --> 00:37:48.931
Like it's possible, if not only possible, but likely that happens and therefore

00:37:48.931 --> 00:37:49.991
that changes things quite a bit.

00:37:50.131 --> 00:37:53.411
So I think the takeaway is that like, hey, like one, you're a brown belt now,

00:37:53.591 --> 00:37:55.211
like you can see you, you belong here.

00:37:55.631 --> 00:38:02.071
You're like razor thin little things away from, you know, this match is very close being an L or a W.

00:38:02.091 --> 00:38:04.811
Be you and then the other thing her being you know

00:38:04.811 --> 00:38:07.611
senior enough to make these calls to say hey like

00:38:07.611 --> 00:38:10.491
all right i've fought enough times i'm a brown belt now like i have a pretty solid idea

00:38:10.491 --> 00:38:13.411
of how i want to approach these matches i think i should do x and

00:38:13.411 --> 00:38:16.411
then you know as long as the idea doesn't sound crazy and

00:38:16.411 --> 00:38:19.751
i don't think it's completely off i look

00:38:19.751 --> 00:38:22.811
at her and i say yeah hell yeah i think that makes sense you

00:38:22.811 --> 00:38:25.611
know what you're talking about let's let's develop that now

00:38:25.611 --> 00:38:28.531
um and so yeah like a

00:38:28.531 --> 00:38:31.331
good you know she's had a good active run she's meddled it you know she meddled

00:38:31.331 --> 00:38:34.111
at pans like she's had a good year but she got silver at

00:38:34.111 --> 00:38:37.711
pans right yeah yeah that's right so um like

00:38:37.711 --> 00:38:40.391
a good year and i think like you had a good year everyone had

00:38:40.391 --> 00:38:43.311
a good year i had a good year um no one's injured right now

00:38:43.311 --> 00:38:46.031
right michael no one's injured all right

00:38:46.031 --> 00:38:49.591
good i never know with you i came out of there with

00:38:49.591 --> 00:38:52.431
the same number of injuries that i went in you're not more

00:38:52.431 --> 00:38:56.091
injured i yeah that that might be the best way to put it for me you

00:38:56.091 --> 00:38:59.271
know i guess my knee technically fixed itself so that was cool it

00:38:59.271 --> 00:39:02.791
sounds like that's still to be determined but it's not worse it's it's if it

00:39:02.791 --> 00:39:06.431
feels better that we'll consider that like you healed it via it's better exercise

00:39:06.431 --> 00:39:10.891
it's better because it doesn't hurt good yeah i mean we'll take it but now's

00:39:10.891 --> 00:39:13.731
the time of the year to kind of like i know we have like that was the last big

00:39:13.731 --> 00:39:17.811
event for uh for nogi at least in the ibgf there'll be plenty of other.

00:39:18.271 --> 00:39:22.251
Tournaments and opportunities to compete but like you andrea me like people

00:39:22.251 --> 00:39:24.791
anyone else who's listening who's competed a ton people get a little bit of

00:39:24.791 --> 00:39:28.671
time to like decompress like take a look at everything we're gonna talk about

00:39:28.671 --> 00:39:32.351
this here in a second but like you get to actually like study and think and be like all right like.

00:39:33.135 --> 00:39:37.595
Most of the big in the IBJF Nogi tournaments start to take place later in the year.

00:39:38.315 --> 00:39:41.655
People who are ambitious and active will generally compete prior to that,

00:39:41.755 --> 00:39:43.975
but it's the second half of every year.

00:39:44.715 --> 00:39:48.055
So you get a little bit of time to really, like, pause for a second,

00:39:48.055 --> 00:39:50.735
and it's not like you're going to stop training, but you get to train a little differently.

00:39:51.735 --> 00:39:54.815
And maybe give the body a break if you are kind of banged up, Michael.

00:39:55.155 --> 00:39:58.335
But you get to, like, you get to, like,

00:39:58.755 --> 00:40:02.295
harvest some of the gains and all the things you've learned from, like, making these big,

00:40:02.395 --> 00:40:06.275
ambitious, like heavy intensity training or

00:40:06.275 --> 00:40:09.055
training uh competition runs throughout the year

00:40:09.055 --> 00:40:12.075
it's a good time to like do that yeah i'm i'm

00:40:12.075 --> 00:40:18.055
most excited to not cut weight for a few months i don't doubt it i have been

00:40:18.055 --> 00:40:22.855
cutting weight way too much a lot time time to get some of those gym and kitchen

00:40:22.855 --> 00:40:28.995
gains yes dude did i did i show you yeah i you showed me the scale yeah i i

00:40:28.995 --> 00:40:31.955
went up 11 pounds since Thursday.

00:40:33.155 --> 00:40:37.195
How much of that was, did you eat any pizza in Vegas? I had no pizza in Vegas.

00:40:37.575 --> 00:40:41.075
Yeah, me neither. I had like steaks. Yes. I did steaks.

00:40:41.635 --> 00:40:45.995
Then I did our dinner. We did. I had a giant burrito before that.

00:40:46.135 --> 00:40:48.195
Shout out to Bizarre Mar. Yeah.

00:40:48.715 --> 00:40:50.535
Jose Andres. Jose Andres.

00:40:51.475 --> 00:40:56.955
And then, but the next day, Saturday was, I did, I went to the Bellagio all

00:40:56.955 --> 00:40:58.215
you can eat buffet for brunch.

00:40:58.235 --> 00:41:02.755
That's like seven pounds of food right there. Dude, I had two prime ribs. Oh, man.

00:41:03.595 --> 00:41:05.155
Like, three Poke Bowls.

00:41:06.048 --> 00:41:09.428
And then I don't normally eat dessert, but I had some dessert.

00:41:09.648 --> 00:41:13.068
What'd you eat? Oh, boy. I had some, like, I had two things of ice cream.

00:41:14.628 --> 00:41:18.268
You little kid. Annie gave me a donut to eat. Cool.

00:41:18.568 --> 00:41:21.588
She brought a donut or was it from the buffet? She got it from the buffet.

00:41:21.688 --> 00:41:24.248
She said, eat this donut. She said, you should eat this. I don't want it.

00:41:25.868 --> 00:41:29.288
I had a couple, like, little mini tarts.

00:41:29.588 --> 00:41:32.668
So I had a couple of those, like a little key lime pie and, like,

00:41:32.708 --> 00:41:34.268
a little cheesecake thing. Hell yeah.

00:41:35.728 --> 00:41:37.748
Yeah. Fuck yeah. Eggs.

00:41:39.228 --> 00:41:43.248
I'm certain you ate eggs. I got my $50 worth. Yeah, you did.

00:41:43.248 --> 00:41:45.408
That's all I'm saying. Damn, dude, I need a buffet, man.

00:41:46.008 --> 00:41:48.948
I didn't have any pizza in Vegas. I had some pizza when I got back here.

00:41:50.168 --> 00:41:53.208
But now I'm back to eating steak and eggs, and I'm not going to pig anymore.

00:41:53.408 --> 00:41:54.128
I need to go back to eating.

00:41:54.628 --> 00:41:58.168
Yeah. Pretty normal. I think maybe like a Brazilian steakhouse.

00:41:58.168 --> 00:42:04.628
Like I'm, I'm due for like a unlimited and unlimited just calorie nuclear bomb

00:42:04.628 --> 00:42:09.168
to my stomach could be like, I feel like a good workaround to like make it feel

00:42:09.168 --> 00:42:11.588
like you're not like, I mean, it's still indulgent, but it's not like.

00:42:12.583 --> 00:42:16.163
Gluttonous would be, like, a meat situation. Well, yeah.

00:42:16.443 --> 00:42:18.863
Because it's like, you're like, it's protein. You're like, I'm just getting

00:42:18.863 --> 00:42:21.443
my protein count for the day.

00:42:21.743 --> 00:42:26.703
400 grams of protein. Yeah, but, you know, you account for that on your daily diet.

00:42:26.883 --> 00:42:29.223
If I talk to a scene, I'm certain he's going to be fine with it.

00:42:29.363 --> 00:42:30.843
Yeah. It's, you know, it's fine.

00:42:31.283 --> 00:42:34.423
I'm not doing all-you-can-eat cake and ice cream.

00:42:34.923 --> 00:42:37.183
Yeah. Because I'm hungry. Or maybe I'll do that, too. But, like,

00:42:37.203 --> 00:42:38.883
I don't, that doesn't really get me going.

00:42:39.523 --> 00:42:41.183
No, it's not super. I don't know that salty stuff does.

00:42:42.063 --> 00:42:46.523
Yeah. When you go, also, that's the more expensive item on the adenol you can

00:42:46.523 --> 00:42:48.963
eat anyways. So even if the other stuff is available.

00:42:49.523 --> 00:42:51.763
So now we're talking value. Now we're talking. Oh, dude.

00:42:53.323 --> 00:42:58.143
Yeah. Maximum value. You have to have the maximum value on your buffet.

00:42:58.403 --> 00:42:59.123
Yeah. You ain't got to tell me.

00:42:59.743 --> 00:43:04.463
This is how I do my buffet. I do buffet math, dude. Or like all you can eat math.

00:43:04.743 --> 00:43:07.543
Like we'd go to like all you can eat brunch and like someone's about to order.

00:43:07.703 --> 00:43:09.303
Like I'm like, no, no, no. So here's what we need to do.

00:43:09.463 --> 00:43:12.323
We have to, everyone has to order at least. the most expensive

00:43:12.323 --> 00:43:15.303
five things oh yeah like if you don't order

00:43:15.303 --> 00:43:18.123
five things you're losing money it's just how

00:43:18.123 --> 00:43:21.123
it works so foolish just do all the cart just do

00:43:21.123 --> 00:43:24.383
all the cart if you're only gonna get two things yeah i agree

00:43:24.383 --> 00:43:27.403
but yeah you know it's just it's normal

00:43:27.403 --> 00:43:30.983
normal food stuff things you do yes it

00:43:30.983 --> 00:43:34.143
also probably yeah whatever i'm not gonna go into it makes

00:43:34.143 --> 00:43:37.703
sense to me all you can eat meat buffets or

00:43:37.703 --> 00:43:43.963
like all you can eat meat situations or experiences whatever they are fire drinking

00:43:43.963 --> 00:43:50.203
coffee approved behavior do that um yeah i mean that was are we missing anything

00:43:50.203 --> 00:43:56.763
else from worlds any other no it was cool man made your time it was good it was good i was uh,

00:43:57.838 --> 00:44:01.958
It was a good group. We had a good support system going, too,

00:44:02.078 --> 00:44:04.678
for the two days of competition.

00:44:05.938 --> 00:44:09.218
I think I wish I maybe got there, like, one day earlier.

00:44:10.038 --> 00:44:13.758
It does feel like a short period of time when you get in, and then you compete the next day. Yeah.

00:44:14.158 --> 00:44:19.278
And then your next day after that is, like, helping me out. You're up at, like, 6 a.m., at least.

00:44:19.578 --> 00:44:24.858
You probably were up at 5 a.m. Yeah, so it does feel like you're not, like, enjoying Vegas.

00:44:25.438 --> 00:44:28.418
Well, I wasn't too worried about that part, but, like, I kind of wish I had,

00:44:28.518 --> 00:44:32.818
like, a day to acclimate. Oh, I see. Like, a full day to acclimate. I see.

00:44:33.218 --> 00:44:37.198
The night before is a tough move. Yeah, like, getting there in the afternoon,

00:44:37.358 --> 00:44:40.798
like, basically competing 24 hours after I landed.

00:44:41.438 --> 00:44:44.758
Not too bad, but, like, I do wish I had that, like, one extra day.

00:44:44.938 --> 00:44:48.318
Now you're getting, now you're getting, now you're figuring out what your routine

00:44:48.318 --> 00:44:51.558
should look like next time you compete on the road. Yeah.

00:44:51.818 --> 00:44:54.698
Because, I mean, that's something to consider, man. Like, some people I know

00:44:54.698 --> 00:44:58.718
are good at, like, I'm showing up the next morning I'm just gonna get it done bang,

00:44:59.258 --> 00:45:03.138
um and some people aren't I kind of tend to be like you I like to kind of get

00:45:03.138 --> 00:45:06.438
out there a little early be like alright like let me get my bearings I have

00:45:06.438 --> 00:45:09.538
like a day if I need if I want if I traveled somewhere crazy and I want to sleep

00:45:09.538 --> 00:45:11.898
for like a couple extra hours do that.

00:45:12.773 --> 00:45:15.653
Excuse me get the lay of the land where's the event where am

00:45:15.653 --> 00:45:18.473
i where am i located walk around where's a good place to eat where

00:45:18.473 --> 00:45:21.593
can i hydrate kind of get it all figured out let's do this logistics this

00:45:21.593 --> 00:45:23.593
is art of warship like we talk about it's like knowing the battlefield you gotta

00:45:23.593 --> 00:45:24.693
survey the battlefield you

00:45:24.693 --> 00:45:27.693
have to you have to it's important it is important but yeah

00:45:27.693 --> 00:45:30.613
i mean that was that that's the only like thing i

00:45:30.613 --> 00:45:33.493
think i would do differently um i mean other than win

00:45:33.493 --> 00:45:36.673
but well that's not 100 that's

00:45:36.673 --> 00:45:41.453
not 100 percent in my control right that's only like well we're talking no sliding

00:45:41.453 --> 00:45:45.613
scale percentages we're talking about preparation here preparation's critical

00:45:45.613 --> 00:45:50.453
but i think the art of war i think getting that additional little bit of time

00:45:50.453 --> 00:45:55.653
would probably help but i'm with it you know maybe maybe like fly in the,

00:45:56.293 --> 00:46:00.813
tuesday like tuesday evening you could have done the same thing a day earlier

00:46:00.813 --> 00:46:05.333
and i bet you just it'd be like a nice little bonus good write it down yeah

00:46:05.333 --> 00:46:08.833
i put it on my analysis bingo but yeah,

00:46:09.813 --> 00:46:14.853
but with that that was Fire's drinking coffee and you know that was World's

00:46:14.853 --> 00:46:18.733
2025 World's 2025 it was a good time and you know.
