Thank you Flo for releasing these matches on KZbin so soon I thought it would take forever before I got to see them, my ass doesn’t want to pay 150 dollars for a flograppling membership ☠️

[@SlightyStuupid]

Fr, hopefully with grappling's growth, the price will go down eventually.

[@TheeFitnessEnthusiast]

They offer monthly now! $30/month

[@ramirospinelli6453]

A little dissapointed in Sousa who did not really risk and played defensive from the back, but solid win for Nicky, glad to see him back in action.

[@jasonours5556]

Same. Felt like he just didn’t want to be subbed and considered that a personal victory.

[@anonymousreviewer169]

@@jasonours5556 I don't blame him. If this was a roll in the gym, then there is more incentive to take risks and learn from his mistakes. But on the stage, in his biggest televised event, I respect his decision to play it safe.

Shoutout to flo for posting matches on KZbin. Their $150 price is absurd. Take $100 off of that price for fuck sake

[@drjimjam1112]

Would like to have seen a tie breaker a la, 10P.

[@towardstar]

typically when you got that power half you need one foot on the floor for enough power to turn them (the other in a single leg ride). standing up though I'm not sure because in wrestling they would call the position dangerous and reset them.

[@josephbreza-grappling9459]

We waited too long. You can’t let him get his weight back to do a squat. It’s when it’s more supported by his hands that you need to pressure forward hard. It’s best to take out the hooks and do a classic mat return at that point to get good position of the return and start over. That backpack shit never goes anywhere. Overall he was incredibly dominant and I was happy to see him roll so well in competition. I hope he stays out of the way of injury and can make a good run at it again

[@sharkparty1027]

Gordon Ryan's little brother is pretty good!

great match , excellent techs - but camera is mostly too far away or not on point.... its great that they release on utube... but lacking camera work quality doesnt invite me to make a flograppling abo - they need lots of good camera - talents... who know how to zoom when great techs and moments come

Nicky! Amazing match, please use the “thumbs up” method when applying your power half. More effective than just trying to muscle the opponent with just a gable grip.

What a young bull

It’s official: Nicky Ryan is infinitely better than Jay Rod.

yay the gremlin Won!!!!!! 9o b team!!

[@cccowboy2576]

This is the problem of the back body triangle: you simply cannot utilize your legs to attack your opponent from the back control anymore, which makes almost impossible to pull out a submission in No Gi… It is safe but it is boring…

[@chadbrambers8346]

this is crazy boring. the whole monkey grip with the guy standing was awkward and annoying.
