Welcome to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
This was an ABSOLUTE thrill!
Advanced NoGi Absolute Division Semi-Finals Match
I'm 129.9 lbs, my opponent weighed in at 160 lbs.
With my opponent having a background in wrestling I'll leave it to speculation on how much he may or may not have cut to compete in his division.
Enjoy!
0:42 -- I felt strong pressure with the Electric Chair Submission, I probably could have finished from on my side, but during my application I realized I wasn't on my elbow. In my attempt to get to my elbow, I released pressure, and my opponent was able to position himself out the submission.
1:15 -- I could have held onto my opponent's ankle and came to the top to finish the sweep.
1:42 -- I'm preparing to go to Old School, but my opponent begins to attack my neck. I make defending my neck priority while passing on the opportunity to Old School. When my neck is safe. I go back for the Old School toe grab, but my opponent moves his toes away. I then transition to an Electric Chair Sweep attempt.
2:10 -- Super Stop fails because I failed to maintain a leg curl with my right leg on his trapped leg. Fortunately I was able to stop his pass and re-guard.
2:15 -- I take a mental note of his defense to my re-guard, as it will present itself as an opportunity later on in this match. (2:52)
2:20 -- I was recently teaching the Meathook and out of drilling I went there initially. Though the Meathook wasn't my best option in this situation. I then transitioned to Double Bagger where my opponent stayed defensive and postured out at the right time.
2:52 -- I take advantage of his passing tendencies, making him feel safe, understanding I have the position whenever I want it.
3:00 -- During my attempt to close the triangle. I'm confused at why humans don't have 3 hands. I underhook his leg to counter him standing. The other hand to the back of his head to assist on posture control. In hind-sight I debate if I should have used: Right Hand Cross Grip to his Right Hand; Left Hand on my Right Shin
Triangle Attempt -- It has been debated if I should have disengaged sooner in order to prevent him passing my guard. My argument is that I REALLY wanted to finish that triangle.
My determination to the Triangle Choke assisted my opponent in scoring 3 points for the guard pass.
Current score 3 - 0
3:05 -- The entire time I was under North/South I should have been framing away with both hands on his hips in order to B Smith escape or take the back.
4:00 -- I over-defended/mis-defended my trapped arm. Allowing my opponent to gain the Crucifix Position.
4:40 -- Once I limp arm out I looked to work the Dog Fight, but I was over powered. Eventually working my way back into Lockdown
5:30 -- Finally back in Lockdown. Found a great opportunity to Old School. As I went to knee tap. My opponent released his Whizzer. I literally jumped at the opportunity to finish the fight xD
Short Choke -- While threatening with the Short Choke I felt as if I wasn't cutting off his near carotid artery. I used my head to pressure his head left to right in order to cut off blood supply from the near side artery. During his last efforts to escape I was able to gain a more threatening grip and pressure.
6:02 -- Smile because this is 10th Planet Jiu-Jitsu xD
