It was that match that got me into 10th planet. I was a one stripe blue belt.

I needed more though and from there sought out the 10P Chicago peeps. If it wasn't for that match I don't know if my journey would have taken the turns it did, or if I would have eventually even joined this forum. It was monumental.
Eddie said that Geo's win over Eddie Cummings was the biggest win in 10th planet history. I would respectfully counter that Metamoris III takes the cake, or at least was the biggest 'Draw' in 10th planet history lol. It took 10th planet from the underground no-gi grappling club to the mainstream of jiu jitsu. Or as Amir Allam and I discussed once, it was the validation that made a black belt directly from the hands of Eddie Bravo equivalent to a college degree from a Harvard, Yale, or Princeton, versus a University of Phoenix
