I've always had a problem with them letting the kids fight that far outside of their weight class at these tourneys. It's dangerous. These kids are just learning jiu jitsu and generally speaking aren't prepared to deal with someone much larger.

I'm still trying to figure out what this word is "fuckery"....LOL anyways, yeah this probably was our last one also. It seems no matter how hard Cora trains for this tournament, she's going into it with such a disadvantage. Skill wise, she can compete with anyone, but being a smaller "Asian girl" its such a steep mountain to climb. She probably can make a good battle with a boy 10-15 lbs bigger, but not 20-30 lbs. And Jacob is half Asian so he's in the same boat. I tried talking to the head of the organization about it but he's set in his own ways. Everything about his promotion is good, except the weight issue. Its so much easy to talk when you have one of the biggest kid in their age bracket, but when you are always on the smaller end, its getting very discouraging.
"Fuckery" I guess I'd call it a redneck word, you wouldn't understand Bruce:) 20-30lbs is nothing after kids hit the p word. Jacobs lightest training partner walks around @ 165ish. We knew it was absolute but this kid would have to cut weight to make heavyweight! Almost seems like "fuckery" that first match of that bracket they put the 107lb 10th Planet kid against a 285lbs of lay & pray! Like Conner said, if he had even tried a sub attempt that would be it. Instead he layed his heavy ass all the way to the belt.....FUCKERY!!
Maybe Connor should fight that boy instead...LOL btw if I can learn to understand ebonic, I can learn to understand red neck language as well. LOL
Been buried the last week trying to catch up with everything. I missed this!
Jacob is and will always be one of my favorite 10p soldiers to watch compete. This match showed Jacob's massive heart and his razor sharp technique kept him in the match. The weight difference was ridiculous so Jacob should not feel like he let any of his Nibiru brothers and sisters down. Jacob is a straight ninja, I am extremely honored to have a killer like Jacob go to war for the 10 :-)
Thank you Master Eddie! After Jacob read this he smiled like I haven't seen in a week! He had a bad taste after that tourney. So we registered him for 5 Grappling Texas on the 19th. Then it's training for Derek Stewerts Submission Challenge. Oh yeah, you fuckin owned Royler!!! Before the match Jacob said" I'm more nervous now than I was for BFA. Glad you got lucky again:D
