Self defense. As we see in the UFC, sport jiu jitsu doesn’t carry over well as the effectiveness of many positions drastically change when strikes are introduced. Get on top, stay on top. Simple jiu jitsu.

If you could attend any seminar for free, who would you pick? Would you have a specific topic request?

My top pick would have to be Gordon for obvious reasons. But If we eliminated that option, I’d pick JFlo followed closely by Lovato Jr. All three of these names would be a world class experience! I personally wouldn’t even request a topic, just learn whatever they are best and most passionate about.

My system has changed several times over my time on the mat but i would say one factor has remained consistent, I try to keep it as simple and realistic as possible. Berimbolo and some of these different types of guards are really fun to play with, but if you really got into an altercation they’re not always gonna yield the best results. Simple is king!

I would try to do only the techniques of the day when it comes to open mat/ positional training. Don’t just stick with what’s comfortable, force myself to work on those techniques I’m not successful with

If you walked in to class and Professor asked you to pick the topic to work on, what would you choose?

For me, it would be anything takedown related. I’ve been very focused on stand up grappling for the past couple of months and loving it! Anything to learn or drill from judo or wrestling is fine by me.

If you could go back in time and watch any combat sport (jiu jitsu, boxing, mma, etc) match up live and in the front row, what would it be?

I’d choose the Max Holloway vs Justin Gaethje fight for the BMF belt. Seeing Max knock out Justin with a second left in the 5th round and hearing the pop of the arena would be absolutely insane! One of the top sporting moments in my book. Right up there with Scotty Pods hitting a walk off in Game 2 of the 05 World Series. #GoSox

I was out the past two weeks but I’m excited to be back! This week in No Gi we are going to be exploring the Tai Otoshi as our takedown focus and then we will be looking at some passes from the top half guard position. It’s going to be a great week!
