Yesssss!

In Santa Ana again for the Subfighter Summer No Gi Jiu Jitsu Challenge. Didn’t get as many pictures as I hoped since we had 19 guys competing and Tracy and I were running all over coaching. I think half our guys medaled and either our team or 10th Planet Costa Mesa took the team award (results still had to be tabulated when we left). Missed Dillashaw vs Barao for this tournament!

Chris Leben came in to Subfighter MMA on Wednesday night to teach a grappling seminar. It was open to the public and it was pretty full. It’s not often that I don’t recognize over half the people on the mat. Lots of footlock and leglock technique and transitions. Afterwards, most of the regulars stuck around for a good hour of rolling. For everyone that ever goes to a seminar, stick around and roll! The more practice you get rolling with people you don’t know, the better.

At the Soboba Casino for the umpteenth time for Justin and Logan’s fights in King of the Cage. At one point, I was sitting with Russ Miura and Adam Lynn and we came to the realization that we have all been coming to this exact same place for fights for over a decade now. Always a good way to feel old… xP

Another day at Subfighter MMA Laguna Hills for their Men’s Gi Jiu Jitsu Classic. As usual, I somehow end up reffing xP. The tournament ran smoothly, but that was just the pre-event for some of us. Afterwards, we headed to The Soboba Casino for Justin and Logan’s fights in KOTC.
