This kid is great! At the the beginning of the video he has a "twister" hair do. Maybe his dad is a fan (reaching). At the end of the video it says to subscribe to his channel and that he does compete in BJJ and NAGA. I haven't check that out yet.

Different kid
Twister 4 life = member of the Harvey Twisters!
Awesome video
I'm sorry different kid! I guess there's more than one 8 year old phenom! This kid's name is Noah, I didn't see the last name. The kid who's video was posted here like 3 times, his name is Stevo Poulin. Dam kids all look the same to me.
LOL i love his MUAY THAI CLINCH feint to SHOOT haha that was sick! i cant wait til i get a kid so i can teach him BJJ hes gonna be SO NASTY at least i wont have to worry about BULLYS (imma make him responsible only for DE-fense) just cause we know how to break limbs doesnt mean we need to FLYING ARMBAR everyone we come across ;DQuote:

But the slow mo's of him shooting in on kids that are just not as developed as he is is vein. He obviously is ahead of his age group in physical maturity, no need to highlight it.
I thoroughly enjoyed his technique though, he is going to be a beast.
the best of all they prayed before their event amen and thank you Jesus

I don't blame the kid (who looks awesome and talented btw), and I'm not taking anything away from his amazing talents, but I'm confused that NAGA allows that. Besides, it's just that much longer before he works on his BJJ if he can just rely on a few nasty cranks. Everybody loses this way, even him.
I cant believe a blue belt doesn't know the difference between a neck crank and a arm triangle! The very last sub was probably a neck crank but im sure thats not what you were referring to since you noted the 1:26 mark and that was not till the very end and im sure since he set that up the way he set up the first two arm triangles it was unintentional.Quote:

come on Valdez? 11 sec was a head and arm choke I dont care if it hurt her neck it is what it is.
his head is next to her elbow. you believe he was utilizing an arm triangle with his head that high and that applied that quick?
how long did he hold it, like 3 seconds?
You can have neck pressure from lots of chokes i.e. darce, jnt that doesn't mean it was intentional. It was still an arm triangle which is legal. If he went knee on belly and she tapped and then got up holding her ribs would that be illegal as well? If he applied lockdown and she tapped would you say he applied an illegal leg lock? Pain is part of the game at any level.
Either way, he is a kid and I doubt anything illegal is intentional. But, NECK pain doesn't have to be a part of the game for 7 yr olds when someone can tell a kid how to correctly change the position.
Looking at the clip again, its not illegal but the original concept that this kid is winning by muscle fucking kids that aren't as developed as he is still stands. There are some nice techniques in that video, does that mean they slow mo him dropping kids on there head and finishing arm triangles by muscling through them?
And how about that clearly illegal neck crank at the end of the video? Those could be a result of no one reminding him about technique over muscling through submissions.
I don't believe that its okay to accept that type of pain as being apart of the game at that level. seven yrs old? Its illegal for a reason and that Safety.
