And that's just the featherweight division!!
JK! Jake, there will be some fine matches in this one!!

rooting for keenan cornelius big time, that kids been tearing it up and i want to see it continue. prob one of the best chances for an american to win the worlds any time soon besides for maybe lovato. And didn't he just win the abu dhabi trials and adcc qualifier???

Yeah he just won the qualifier. He also climbed a two story window to get in

What's on saturday and what's on sunday? I have a seminar in Vegas on Saturday that I committed to months ago that I can't get out of but if Sunday is dope i'll make it to that :)

Not hating, I admire the hell out of that guy, and everyone in Lloyd Irving's Camp. He makes beasts. I just couldn't believe it when I read it on DJ Jackson's Facebook status. DJ also beat Roberto Cyborg Abreu. The way they run their camp is like a machine and if I ever got to experience something like that I would be eternally grateful.

The schedule will be out soon, but all of the black belt finals will be Sunday so it will definitely be worth the trip!

Brown and Black Belts are on Sunday :)

No haterade in the CHI well not at least from 10p Chi North. We talked with Kennan and DJ at gracie worlds. They were super humble and cool.

The complete schedule has been released:

Any 10p guys competing?

Watching the blues right now. Both days are gonna pretty badass. Watching these guys makes me want to hit the mats & train harder. Watching is like competing & loosing for me. So much more work I have ahead of me.

Awesome commentary by Jake & his team also. They inspire some deep thinking.

BIG Don Richard a Black Belt from Michigan went all the way out to compete. Intersted to see how he does.

When i first started jiu jitsu the guy i trained with was a Don Richard guy. Dude is huge.

On a side note fuck points and i haven't seen a sub all day.

Avery Stebbins and Ant Lopez each took 3rd

wow! When scanning the names of those who placed I noticed at least 3 names that were of Hawaiian origin. Not to mention that at one point Keenan Cornelius used to train with me at BJs back in 09. I think he got promoted to purple before leaving. I knew keenan was really talented but who knew he'd end up being a top rated grappler.

good luck keenan

Just saw Brent Alvarez's (Brown Belt) match. Tough fight. Had to stop and watch when I saw some rubber guard. That was a battle.

Did Alvarez finish that match in Eddie's twitter with a gogo? It looks like he is in triangle position in the pic in Eddie's twitter.
