I was at the Joslins grappling tournament last weekend and it was an awsome time. I seen some people that I havent seen in a long time, Randy and his buddy. I got to see Kyle and talk with him a little bit and I got to hang with the guys that we work out with. First off Kyle looked awsome every match of his he looked to be in total control. Did you do the no gi Kyle or did you have to go? I competed in the gi and no gi intermedate divisions. I took third in the gi there were I think 25 people in the division. I felt proud. I beat three blue belts but lost to a white belt lol. That white belt had the best submissions of everone in the division though. I thought I just had a bad match agianst him but he made everyone look bad. I don't think I could have beat him if I had a great match he was slick. I think that wrestling is a big help in this tournament. I was in so much better shape then everyone that I was winning all the matches at the end when the other guy got tired. I did mess up a guys arm though. I had him in a stright americana and I heard pop pop pop and he didn't tap just stopped moving, So I let it go and went to the bent Americana it popped everytime I moved it so I just gave up and held on for the win by points. That was the toughest guy I ever went agianst. I won the no gi. It was awsome in the finals a guy lept guard and went to a gullitine. I held him up for like two minutes set him down and got the takedown. I passed his guard off his umo attempt and won the belt. I think it was so late in the day alot of people just left. Primo took fourth but he was real sick and he still had two nice arm bars. Thomas stepped up and went intermediate but he was about 30 pounds lighter then the next lightest guy so he only got fourth but he looked good. Over all the tournament was awsome and Carlos Newton was there, and reffing so it was sweet. He winked at me during one match it was awsome. Oh well I have to go back to work but the tournament was run awsome they are almost to big for that school though lol.
