The Best IBJJF Blue Belt

[@rollinOnCode]

that camera vs pants battle was FEROCIOUS! Glad you came out on top there tyler!

[@TylerSpangler]

I hope he stops shrimping back to guard 😤

[@Blinkz]

Lmao, the stick figures 😂 …you know what I’m talking bout.

[@TylerSpangler]

Gotta throw in humor somehow 😅

[@Tacticalteabag]

Haha this was great. Grats Matt. The editing is becoming god like. Also, the stick figures and DBZ ending music had me dying.

[@TylerSpangler]

Tune in next time to see if matts power level is over 9000

[@HalConick]

Entertaining video. I’ve just started a few months ago, but this made me want to compete. Nice work!

[@TylerSpangler]

You should do it!

[@deadmemes4242]

Keep at it I have been doing it for 12 years

[@toxikroyalty3787]

Been watching this channels content for ages and I personally think that these vids aren’t getting the views they deserve by far!! Great content, editing on point. Can’t wait for the next part 🔥

[@TylerSpangler]

Glad you liked it mate! I appreciate the comment!

[@Boki9]

Hahaha the stick figures and their ding dongs. . 😂😂😂

[@joeythehitman]

Great editing, looking forward to the next one!

[@itsamemikeg]

Better and better content, my guy.

[@TylerSpangler]

Thanks mate!

[@BH-ix7nq]

That DBZ outro made me laugh so hard. I used to always say "find out next on DragonBALL Z!!!!" but felt like no one ever got the reference. I feel like I've found my people 🥲

[@Markle_B]

That battle between your camera angle and the ref was INSANE 😂❤

[@drjimjam1112]

Really nice break down thank you!!

[@TylerSpangler]

Part three coming today 😀

[@towelietowel4513]

The final stick figures did matt dirty 💀

[@EvolveNowYoga]

Back with the cliff hanger😩 but nice job by Matt!

[@kenmondsanders]

Man your commentary! lmbo!! I subbed just for that

[@overrideFunction]

The stick figure art was on point!

[@kylebenyamin5948]

That last minute omaplata was so clutch.. champion mindset.

[@chrisgartung1708]

Matt is a fucking monster dude

[@TylerSpangler]

A monster indeed! And he just got his blue belt

[@chrisgartung1708]

@@TylerSpangler I know I remember when he was sandbagging hahaha

Thanks mate!

[@bdomini1]

Great work, Matt!

[@TylerSpangler]

Great work indeed!

[@guu6854]

Your battle was brutal😂a worthy opponent

[@TylerSpangler]

I somehow came out on top, but it took some time

[@anthonypedrotti9621]

love these homie

[@gandalfthedev200]

Lets all raise hands to help Matt charge that spirit bomb and defeat Frieza

[@HollyDollyTakahani]

Very engaging! Thank you!

[@TylerSpangler]

Glad you liked it!

[@TheKlane94]

Good work Matt

[@TylerSpangler]

Good work indeed!

[@bobsunflower1296]

He has a good knee cut his first bow and arrow was clean

[@TylerSpangler]

Clean and looked painful af

[@michaellynch2457]

Need the last video my guy lol

[@TylerSpangler]

New one is up now 👍🏻

[@rivhaaken9763]

Cant wait for the bext Video!

[@crypticmonkey5470]

Such a tease, lol. Great vid!

[@SnowBlitz12]

Isn't the sweep at 7:08 a pendulum sweep? And isn't it spelled omoplata?

[@blackflagbarbering4753]

on the next episode of Blue Belt Z!

[@zbcombat]

I didn’t know civil war generals did BJJ 😂 I like the facial hair😂👍

[@TylerSpangler]

And unfortunately he shaved right after this 😞

[@zbcombat]

@@TylerSpangler RIP, you hate to see it😢

[@katiethecamgirl6693]

Love the DBZ music.

[@TylerSpangler]

Thanks cam girl

[@robirhodes7411]

Well done Matt

[@TylerSpangler]

Indeed good work!

[@vincechanhealthy6373]

what is this? Kobra Kai TV series? why you always leave us hanging?

[@TylerSpangler]

Gotta make sure you stick around :D

[@Nathan.Nevada]

How is Matt such a beast? How often does he train?

[@TylerSpangler]

He trains quite a bit. 4-5x a week, but also lifts very regularly

[@Nathan.Nevada]

@@TylerSpangler interesting. I’d like to know what he does for conditioning. There isn’t a lot of good video on BJJ strength conditioning. I try to focus on the main lifts, squat, deadlift, and press, but I also need to work on my cardio.

[@accain1314]

Gonna have to work on passing those nasty referee camera guards. Brutal.

[@TylerSpangler]

Brutal defense by him. I’ll get better at it

[@Guywithair2]

4:29 hes just like me fr fr

[@liamhopkins29]

Hey Ty, is it frowned upon/not meta to wear a ring during rolls? I have an oura ring that tracks a few physiological markers that I'm always fascinated to check on, especially during/after class. Should I not be wearing it during drills/rolls?

[@TylerSpangler]

Oh you’re fine. I always “hear” horror stories of how it damages someone’s finger, but I have never actually seen it

[@jinxit]

Very interesting, I'm looking forward to all the rest. I have an idea which perhaps you could use for a collab with other youtubers (e.g. Shintaro Higashi and "TeachMeGrappling Coach Brian"): get 3 competent guys of the same weight: folkstyle wrestler, bjj player and a judoka, have them train all three things + sumo for a week, then have them square off in 4 round-robin nogi tournaments: 1) wrestling, 2) bjj, 3) judo, and 4) sumo (sumo ruleset is "can't touch ground with anything other than feet, and can't leave the circle")

[@bakerd773]

Have to know what happens. That pencil sweep was quite cool

[@dylanaguon1428]

matt is dope. i got my blue belt around the same time as him and i’m also preparing for my first tournament too. hope to do as well as him. 🤙🏽👌🏽

[@TylerSpangler]

I hope you do too! Let me know if you do compete later!

[@dylanaguon1428]

@@TylerSpangler sup man just wanted to let you know that i competed in my first tournament over the weekend and took home the gold! used a good bit of knowledge from your video content. thanks man ✊🏽

[@TylerSpangler]

@@dylanaguon1428 congratulations mate. I’m very glad you took home gold. Nice job

[@omarael7935]

He's a monster

[@Slamminbassplayer]

Where was this? Judging by the makeup of competitors I’m going to say suburban MN?

[@Slamminbassplayer]

Duh, there’s a PIN for Mpls. Ok, cool. I’m from Mpls and live/train in SoCal, but will move back eventually. Curious about how the avg skill level compares.

[@TylerSpangler]

I’m curious as well! I imagine better BJJ in Cali just due to a larger population. Better wrestling in MN

[@nicolaslaquier]

I wonder if he wins. Clearly he got gold so I'm not sure

[@Killamonk_32]

Does he train at start in Miramar fl

[@angelpacheco5383]

Is that Anthony Rose?

[@matthewhartley2193]

Yes

[@TylerSpangler]

One of them is.

[@carlfrithiof5089]

very impressive especially considering that he was a white belt not to long ago, sandbaging indeed.

[@jah96]

Lol wth is this tournament bracket he had to fight half the division just to get gold lmao

[@bradyg9664]

Blue belt here, if I saw that facial hair across from me I’m forfeiting every time. Game recognizes game 🤙🏻

[@TylerSpangler]

Such A shame he shaved right after too :(

[@bradyg9664]

@@TylerSpangler ah man gotta teach him that jiu jitsu is at least 52% facial hair, I’m pretty sure Garry Tonon said something like that 🥸

[@AdventuresWithWampa]

I roll with a ring on, but its silicone... Not a "stud" though, since I just got my first stripe on my white belt....and I'm old-ish.

[@arturmazurek6935]

What is this sweep at 2:45 ? PENCIL ? :D

[@TylerSpangler]

We call it a pencil sweep 😅 I’m sure it has many other names. Omaplata sweep if you keep the omaplata

[@Kd240sx]

Early asf 🤌🏾😤

[@TylerSpangler]

Just in time 😀

[@supermario1982171]

Oh come on it was just getting to good part

[@ihormay3418]

You should have shrimped harder to get out of referee control

[@jackreacher6691]

Those stick figures were actuate representations?
