My division didn't go quite like I wanted to, ended up losing on points. I'll get my video up as soon as I get a copy of it. Clif notes version goes like this: dude pulled of quick inner leg sweep, I salvaged guard, worked meat hook, failed hip bump, back to meat hook, had a possible carni that I couldn't pull the trigger on, double underhook lockdown, old-school and electric chair not happening. After this somehow he took my back with one hook, fought off the RNC to arm triangle to mount, fought for 1/4 guard and was able to reverse him, passed to 1/2 guard, defended the kimura/roll, and time ran out just as I was about to hook up top lockdown which would have led to the vaporizor. 10 more seconds and I'd have been in the clear.
Oh well, didn't get tapped (especially that kimura, been having trouble with those lately), kept working the entire match and stayed calm and patient, fought out of some bad places, and I know exactly what to work on for the next little bit: carni, 1/2 guard sweeps, and more carnis.
Wow, that's amazing that you remember all that.
I fought a tournament and all my matches are a blur. I don't remember anything except defending arm bars from mount, and pulling off a rolling anaconda in one of the fights. All the rest of the details are gone. The organization was supposed to record all the fights and post them on Youtube but there are apparently some issues with the cameras that were on some of the mats. Which sucks, because I really want to see my fights and see where I fucked up.
Supposedly they are working on it.
