Did a sport ju jitsu tourny - 08/07/07 06:38 PM
Hi, did a sport jujitsu tournament 2 weeks ago, lost to the same guy twice, but I thought they were some good matches. Second match was kind of out of control though, I was dropped twice in the first round with heavy punches to the stomach, then taken down and submitted twice in a row (partly because I was still hurt)
after I recovered from the heavy hits I had to step it up and depend on my addrenaline to keep me from getting to hurt.
lessons lurned
1. Hold them in a pin to tire them out longer before going in to a submission.
2. Do not try an ankle lock in a competition.
3.Be ready for those hard hitters, even at tournaments where hard hitting is not allowed (minus points, disqualification...)
anyway heres the vids if anybody is interested, I noticed that not that many people post there matches on here, so maybe it is taboo? I will stop if it is a bad thing.

edit:
For clarification, I am the one with the blue belt, the judges gave me the belt so they can award some points to blue and some to white, in reality I am a white belt in ju jitsu, and the other guy is a white belt in ju jitsu.
I have karate/wrestling/wing chun background and he has judo/tkd/wrestling background so it was an interesting match up.
he did pull off one hip throw in the first match because the refs said stop (so I stopped) and he continued the throw.
So even though it looked like I got pwned with that throw, he got no points for it
another lesson learned, don't drop your guard because the ref says stop. some people just wont stop...
