They're going so soft on him, he ripped the heelhook on a teammate in an inhouse tournament after the guy vocally and physically tapped like five times. He just ripped it harder until everything tore. I'm not watching another match of his, he should be barred from competing for that shit.

Holy shit the soft ball responses in this clip are insulting. This kid rips submissions with intent to break limbs on purpose, and you guys are excusing him as just "being a 16 year old kid"? Guys, are we being serious right now? Can we grow a backbone and call it what it is? He should be shunned and shammed. This is unacceptable. He should be suspended for these actions.

A better guy isn't the issue. It's just common knowledge that submission without injury is what people look for. So all it takes is a real shit person to play on his level. One injury on him will make him think twice.

[@NaturalDogFood]

This is my #1 reason I prefer not to compete and only train at the gym Never know who you’ll come up against

[@jskscotty3508]

Mason just made that kid look like he didn't even know Jiu Jitsu.

[@josephgerges7746]

Facts

[@Fish-please]

That is more of a style for if you were in an actual fight. You can't control the momentum and final point of submission the way he rolls. BJJ isn't geared for malicious damage. While I don't think it's right, I do think he will go far in competition if some doesn't disassemble him first.

[@beyondhomosapien]

I’m glad Mason beat this guy and gave him some humble soup while also displaying great sportsmanship. Hopefully with good examples like this, young athletes like Pat will develop a better understanding. We need more conversations like this one!

[@badxradxandy]

[@leatherhosin6930]

Some people see kindness as a weakness can’t go about it that way with everybody

[@martinjnagy]

Mason submitted him with an arm bar

[@alahatim]

For anyone who wants to know how this turned out, expand my comment . . . . . . . . . . Mason arm-barred the 16 yr old in about 5 mins. It looked like a grown man "manhandling" a child, which essentially it was. Mason immediately went North-South and controlled him there until he set up the arm bar. I don't think the kid even touched Mason's leg. Also, Mason went on to beat 2/3 other ppl and win the tournament that night and he's 25k richer.

[@aplus1080]

Hahaha of course that's the outcome. I have a pet peeve for prodigious leg lockers who also don't know bjj.

[@frankdelgado8348]

@aplus1080 Same, Pat is skilled ofc but he needs to learn good sportsmanship and how to control his submissions, especially that heel hook. The whole point of bjj is to sub the guy and get the tap, not crank as hard as you can and break something or just flat out end someone’s career.

[@bshasnki100]

I have a feeling Mason is going to humble him.

[@logan-kj6uu]

This was posted after the tournament, Mason won the whole thing

[@galoobigboi]

[@spreiik]

Somebody needs to ruin Pat’s knee so he can see the damage he’s doing to others. Otherwise he’s just going to keep doing it, how many body’s does he have to ruin until he realises

[@mandos6145]

Anyone who has to permanently damage someone else to win didn't win. But the other guy has to walk away the loser and has to have a worse life. I think the thing to do is for everyone who goes up against him to refuse, just walk away, make it so he just *can't* fight... until he runs into someone who is a; better and b; willing to show him what hes doing to others

[@stevep4236]

[@marceloisoni9158]

[@SLouiss]

Do they have mismatched opponents in these competitions? Could an inexperienced hobbyist in their first tournament go up against a leg breaker?

[@wtfimcrying]

nope

[@echoactual1776]

The fact that he's 16 doesn't factor in. He knows full well what he is doing and you can argue, enjoys it, as Mason pointed out. It is clear when he does injure his opponents he does not care about it at all afterwards. Somebody needs to give him the same treatments. Fastest way for him to understand better why that's not acceptable.

[@ILmachiner]

So the kid gets a big name. He goes to Brazil to compete and hurts someone in Brazil. Everybody knows how this plays out.

If you knock someone out, it is what it is, you’re throwing shots and sometimes they connect in just the right place. But if you’re gonna tip someone’s knee ligaments out, how can you live with yourself knowing you’ve purposefully crippled someone like that

[@mraBJJ33]

Personally I hate that he does that... but it doesn't seem to be against the rules, no one seems to want to penalize the guy for it, so I guess he will continue to get away with that until the shoe is on the other foot. He gets up and celebrates it like he has zero remorse for it, which is a shame, seems pretty sociopathic if you ask me. Not really the type of competitor that I'd be ok with kids looking up to that they can base their game off of, hopefully he doesn't influence any other young competitors to behave in such a way.

[@canthandlethisass]

I think hes just insecure because hes fat

[@DumbleDoff]

BJJ is the stupidest sport to participate in. I would rather get knocked out than have my ACL torn.

[@ByronC900]

Being 16 in grappling against 30 year olds isn't a disadvantage. Your Test levels at 16 are through the roof. You have less responsibilities. What does all of this mean? You can train more, train harder, and recover faster. Your brain is also more adept at soaking up knowledge at 16.

[@ryan80166]

and less injuries too, which he clearly hasn't had a serious one yet

[@jacobbertram9929]

[@yew2oob954]

Okay...his next competitor should take Pat down with a guillotine from standing and just fall...attack the submission without control right? 🙄 He may think twice if someone makes him a quadrapeligic.

[@Barneyfithlawman]

Just saw a guy saying he hurt him just in training

[@mode-e75]

Once, could happen. But after multiple times, and show no care or remorse coming off the sub, that’s a bad apple.

[@vobser2164]

Not cool to hurt the people who also love the sport as much as you do. Enough to give you a body to compete against at competition. I hope he simmers down because it doesn’t make you better at jiu jitsu or bring new people into the sport. I’ve seen several rolls with Gordon Ryan and the second he has the sub that he just holds it. He doesn’t necessarily go for the break and he always gets the tap. It seems ridiculous to break your opponent off out of spite or thinking it looks cool. I hope he grows up.

[@suplexed]

Repeat offenders should definitely get suspension from competition. There's a reason why small joint manipulation isn't allowed. People need to remember that these are matches, not fights. If breaking a limb is a perfectly legitimate way of ending a match, why can't I break two or three of my opponent's fingers to end it nice and quick?

[@Rollsatroyal]

Lmfao heel/ankle is the same as fingers????😂

[@SweetNonExistence]

Agreed. Yet instead of discouraging him, promoters use the kid as a cash cow to get views. It's disgusting. He's not even good, but he's got a name now for all the wrong reasons

[@subradiant_music]

Take it you never rolled before have you?

[@christianjames92]

This is the issue with modern BJJ gyms. Guys like this kid would've gotten kicked out at the white belt level for these type of actions. Now they train these dudes up and they become very dangerous without the discipline. Leg locks in general are a grey area. I think there has to be a serious conversation about banning them in sport BJJ. Just gives the opponent zero time to tap before you can fuck them up.

[@stupidbro2301]

You can do exactly the same with kimura, or Armbar. There is the rule that bans cracking submissions, I do not know why it is not enforcet.

[@rollinOnCode]

the art of jiu jitsu is about control. if you are not even able to hold it for a couple of seconds then it is questionable how good you are at jiu jitsu.

[@mikeyg9383]

True. Also, Legs arent that hard to "break" as they arent supposed to naturally twist at the knee. People tear their acls in non contact sports too. People shouldnt be proud about "breaking" legs.

Until he chokes someone and nearly kills them... i watched a vid and he literally pulled and snaps straight away. Not even enough time to move your damn hand to tap....

[@anthenyiscool2758]

If I knew I was going up against a dude with this reputation, my plan would be vocally tap very loudly as soon as I felt a solid connection in his attempt. There’s no point in letting the guy break your shit. If he still cranked super hard after the fact that I vocally tapped and everyone heard, I’m getting DQ’d for rocking his jaw. Fair trade I’d say.

[@arturdobrzynski6531]

Well, if he breaks your leg, you might need to wait a month or two before you can present any risk to anyone, so "rocking his jaw" would hardly be an option.

[@vinyvinycocopuffpassittomenow]

The kid is a narcissist and showboats after ruining people’s future. He gets a joy out of it. Hes nit safe to have around in society. He shows no concern or remorse for the people he purposely hurt.
