Newbreed Grappling Challenge - Charlotte

This was the first time Newbreed has come to Charlotte and the turnout wasn't great. I only had 1 other guy in my nogi division and I had 4 in my gi division (they combined some weight classes for gi.) I did get 1st in no gi advanced and 2nd in purple gi.

I only got video of my no gi match. I won with a japanese necktie. They guy is wearing blue belt shorts, but he was a purple belt. I know because I beat him in purple belt gi too.

I lost in the gi final by 2 points. We both pulled guard at the same time and my leg got caught up under him and he came up on top, which was 2 points immediately. Then he stalled big time. Ref said they had no rules against stalling. He was a weight class above me, but it was clear with his stalling he didn't want to grapple.

Here is my no gi match

Awesome job brotha:cool:

Beautiful Japanese Necktie! :)

Thanks guys

The Irish Necktie!

He never had a chance, man. Great work.

He clearly had a plan of scoopin up deephalf and gettin on top. You scooped up that underhook and shut him down. Then punished him for gettin it back. Clean match.

Jon gets A LOT of practice in Half Guard Top when grappling against me. I'm always happy to see opponents his size pull Half on him because I know the chances of anyone sweeping him are near zero. Jon's game is really coming together!

Thanks guys! Thank you Gerbil
