Yes, to me they look lke they were drinking and no, the boys don't look like D1 wrestlers, but that doesn't take away from this girls' talent. Nice transitions, and great control.
I've been watching Riley for a couple of years now. It definitely looks like big things await in her jiu jitsu future.
Cool video and it looks like she's done some 10p as well
She is on Reddit. Training for 9 years, just got awarded her Blue belt upon turning 16. Excellent.
That explains it. When I heard she was a blue belt I was like "Man. I don't know when I'm going to be good enough to get my blue belt then."Quote:

It varies on instructor, and what your goals are too with Jitsu. As a new blue belt myself I can attest to the times when I didn't know when I'd be ready to even submit to Eddie the videos for distance promotion (if it came to that, fortunately 2 of my instructors both told me I was eligable and one of them presented it to me last month).Quote:

very slick and easy transitions... but yeah 9 years is a long time tho... she looks strong too... wonder what here competition record is and it looks like she be lifting weights :p
She is super strong with biceps bigger than mine..LOL she is to my knowledge the 2nd best teen girls in the south (Ok, Tx, La, Ar,) I said 2nd best because she hasn't been able to beat the 4 time BFA Champion yet. The last time they fought, it went 20 minutes in a blue/purple invitational. Riley took 2nd place to the winner who happen to be only 15 yr old herself (Kayla DeLeon). These 2 are posed to meet again in Sept at BFA No Gi World Championship.Quote:

There is a thread about this on Sherdog and you should see the insecurities flowing over there. OMG it is funny/pathetic to see some of these guys feel so threatened by this video. I feel sad for them really. Their ego's can't allow for a girl to be competent at Jiu Jitsu, nevermind tapping/napping boys.
That is actually Cora's Dad posting. His name is Bruce.Quote:

Yeah I kinda through people off...sorry....LOL
I thought I was having a great parenting moment when I sat down with my 8 year old daughter and showed her that. After the video she asked, "Do you know her?" I told her I didn't. Then she asked if I knew the boys; again I didn't. Confused, she asked, "Well then why are you showing me?" I told her that I wanted her to know that girls could beat up boys. She furrowed her brow, and in her best "daddy's stupid" voice said, " I already knew that, wanna wrestle?"
LOL love it!!!Quote:

Riley will be in EBI 5, she has star potential, that video is almost at 1 million views and it's been up less than a week :)
This must be a rite of passage for young girls who do jiu jitsu. Gabby used to do this shit every weekend at bonfires at the same age.. Lol. They woukd whip out the tarps and she would knock em down one at a time. Guess she should of taped it.. Lol.
Gotta do that with Connor next!!!! Love it.Quote:

Riley was at Gracie worlds in Vegas last year. She competed in the women's white/blue belt gi division and won her first match then lost to the eventual winner, another girl who was 15 and had been training 9 years with Drysdale. These kids who have been training their entire life are insane! Just look at Mickey Muscecci. Got his black a month ago and beat a Miyao brother at American Nationals this weekend and he's only 18 and still in high school!
get her on MTS asap!Quote:
