Fight to Win White Belt Masters 180 lb division Championship

Great opponent with a great ability to move his hips. Although he gave me a hard time, I finished winning on points 12 - 2.

"way to go eric" "yay go dad!" "shhhhh shhh shhh"

Don’t know why the little kid at the beginning saying ‘go daddy’ was being shushed. I’d like my kid cheering me on.

[@DustinDiBree1]

One time I was in a tournament and I heard a kid yelling "Go, Dad!", and I just let the guy win (without it being obvious); the kid was stoked for his pops...

[@RyanClearwater]

I honestly thought the same thing. Other than him sitting on the mat, which wasn’t even that big of a deal, he was well-behaved. Also, that one minute warning is crucial for us bigger guys, so kudos to little man for that!

@@DustinDiBree1 thats very kind of you :P

[@matthewatkinson2861]

For me, and granted this is just my personal preference, I have a hard time hearing my coach as it is, I don’t need further distractions, especially from a higher pitches voice which will cut through most of the sound. As for the minute warning he gave, my guess is that he was already winning points and in a dominant position, it was more so don’t let the other guy know he has to make a move, that or he may have relaxed and gotten submitted if he thought time was on his side. Not sure though, just my educated guess

First time I've seen a referee not instantly DQ on the knee reap. Great job by him by just adjusting and explaining.

[@timkang5190]

can you explain what the knee reap is ?

[@williamwatson3580]

Just before the stop and reposition the guy in blue had his opponents leg trapped with his legs and was turning to the Inside, that is a knee reap. It puts a ton of pressure on the knee for the person who's leg is trapped. The end result could be really bad for the person who's leg is trapped.

[@timkang5190]

@@williamwatson3580 Thanks ! Coincidentally, i just learned what the knee reap is yesterday in my gym ! :D

[@FrontiersOfTheFuture]

That kid is being an awesome corner. That's fantastic.

[@EastSideNYC]

Sheesh, let the kid cheer their dad on!

Rollin so hard you set the alarm off.

White belt scramble

[@colincharles9034]

That take down roll @ 0:40 very nice 👌

[@LocalChoker]

I got a kick out of it around the 2 min mark. You were pulling one of those “I don’t know how I’m gonna get out of this” moments lol. Great match man. Position before submission! Good work

[@GTMario5]

You did really good, subbed right away

[@edwardskrod]

Kick ass Eric! Much props to you

[@Timst3R]

The commentary was second to none. UFC are going to be head hunting someone in the near future as their next MC😘

Ref needs to take his hands out of his pockets and do his god damn job. smh

0:38 that didn't look like a white belt to me!! How long have you been a white belt?

[@ericguerra8154]

xpat73 I had started training a year before this tournament.

[@jamesc4196]

guard pull sweep was beautiful man, haha you were happy at the end. good work!!!!

[@xpat73]

Nice work!

[@Pric3less1]

DeathIsLight that wasn’t a pull guard sweep. That’s called a Tomoe Nage which is a sacrifice throw in Judo.

[@ronthemogul]

That’s a basic sweep bro. Where do you train?

[@jaker.8326]

Sshh shhh shhh... 😒

[@the_cuzzos455]

no one even attempted a sub how lame to much stalling haha iwouldnt feel good about that win

[@GrassLogic-fe9le]

If it was sub only, I'm sure there would have been many more attempts. If you don't maximise the given rule set to win, you're being foolish.

[@razaz03]

The guy who won actually attempted a triangle from side control - on top of the losers armbar (just FYI)

[@dotsfrazer]

Any videos of yourself subbing anyone in a competition im sure everyone here would like to see

[@jordanbjj]

This guy talking shit about white belts. lol...

No disrespect, but the style of both of these players annoyed me. All flail. No thought.

@@99m0bb1n Youre right he did say he trained a year before this. But now its 3 months? 4 stripes? It took me a year and a half to get my 4th stripe. I know every gyms different but 3 months is INSANE.
