Ex-Rugby International doing BJJ - 12/23/10 06:16 AM
This is Matt Stevens, a former England Rugby Union player who wsa banned from the game for 2 years for drugs offences. Was reading an interview he did for a Sunday newspaper and he said that has turned to BJJ while serving his ban. He talked about not just the physical side of BJJ which fufils his competitive drive, but how he feels the philosophy of the system has helped him.
Anyways, here he is in action. He recently won the British BJJ Super Super Heavy title and was runner up in the Open Division. He's the big guy in the blue gi in the first clip. The little guy in the black gi looks nervous to say the least!
He's the got the gold/green belt in the second clip:
