On March 8, 2014 i competeted in the 4th Annual RGV OPEN. i weighed in at 150 pounds. Instead of fighting in my weight bracket though, I competed in the 160+ pound weight class. I won 1st place in gi and 3rd place in nogi. My first gi match, I won in about 10 seconds by a bow and arrow choke. My 2nd gi match, for the gold medal, was against a blue belt who weighed in at 203 pounds, so I was giving up 53 pounds in weight. I beat him in the gold medal gi match on points 4-2 and he beat me by points in my first nogi match on. You can click on “Continue Reading” to see some videos and pictures from this tournament.
My second gi match for the gold medal. I fought a blue belt teen who weighed in at 203 pounds. Even though this was a close match and I did not win by submission, out of all my previous tournaments, this win means the most to me because of how good this teenager is and because he out weighed me by 53 pounds.
My first nogi match with the same teenage boy as above. I lost this match on points.
