Excellent technique! Pro marcelotine! Congrats!

Thank you so much Eddie!

You did great Griff. Really impressed It was good to see you!

It was great to see you too. It helped a lot having a familiar voice in my corner.

Griff! That's what I'm talkin bout. Everything is comin together nicely. The transition from the arm in to marcelotine was lightning. I also love how you controlled the underhook for the pass in the first vid. Noticeable improvements. Congrats.

Thanks Bobby. That's one of my favorite transitions, attacking the arm in guillotine and if I don't get it, switching to the marcelotine. Hope to train with you soon buddy.

Awesome matches Griffin. That belt is looking a little too white in my opinion.

Thanks Nathan. Your matches have always been an inspiration for me.

[Tori Applegate]

Great matches! Quick too. Those are the best! :-)

Awesome job Griff. Your technique looked spot on and I was surprised you didn't get the tap earlier. Your opponent looks like he has a small neck, I wonder if that was why you had to chase the Marcellotine?

Sometimes with people with skinny necks, I alter my grip and reach deep onto my forearm to make the Marecellotine tighter.

Thanks Tori. My cardio's not the best, so I'm always trying to finish as fast as I can. I visualize finishing quickly over and over before a tournament.

Thanks Scott! He did have a small neck. Typically when I lock up the marcelotine, it's over fast or at the very least I can hear them choking but not with this dude. I'm really not used to rolling with guys my size, I'm the smallest guy at my gym. That alternate grip sounds very interesting. Guillotines are my favorite so I'm always excited to learn a new variation. Do you video of it? I'd love to see it if so.

Great work Griffin!
