The journey of a single dad in Jiu Jitsu. From white belt to blue belt and beyond. I did 15 competitions as a White Belt and I'm currently up to 15 competitions as a Blue Belt. From those I've walked away with 38 gold medals plus several silver and bronze, including a 3rd in division and 1st in Open class for Master 2 Blue Belt at World Master in 2024
My goal is to help other ultra heavyweights by sharing what I have learned along the ways. The mistakes I've made along the way as well as the successes.

This is my first live round (after class) with Dan since he got promoted to black belt. It has actually been several months since we last rolled and in that time I've worked a lot on staying on an edge vs being flattened out and using chained escapes versus trying to force my way out with strength.

Nice Armbar
Well since these are wrestling techniques and not BJJ...
Do the scissors, do the scissors, do the scissors, yeah, yeah, foot fetish . Do the scissors, do the scissors, do the scissors, yeah , yeah foot fetish… can’t throw…can’t throw nobody, can’t throw, can’t throw nobody. Use the mat , Use that mat, with that magic back, fight from your back, don’t get disqualified though, scissor to a roll.
“Just stand up” is good advice for defense in grappling, but it’s a lot easier said then done. Was definitely one of my wrestling coach’s favorite things to scream at us😂
@@kristoferprovencal3608 I recently competed against a former ultra heavyweight wrestler that was good at tripod standup from turtle. Incredibly annoying lol
Nice brother. I don't ask this question in a smart ass way so please know that. Is that your first submission ever or as a Blue Belt?
@@countbendego6965 first time hitting the Von Flue choke. I just found out about it a couple weeks ago. Been wanting to hit it since
The most beautiful thing is when you can ride your belly. My dream is to ride your belly❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I saw only wrestling here.
That's fair. No Gi is often called submission wrestling. There is a fair amount of overlap in what goes on in Jiu Jitsu with Ju Jitsu, Judo, Wrestling, etc. :)
Jesus Christ if it was on the street on a concrete floor against any decent sambo or freestyle wrestling practitioner you would be dead. We understand that you need to aggressively propagate this sport because it is like a golden mine with all these binding contracts and fancy GIs but reality is different.
I don't really anticipate being in street fight in general, let alone with someone with martial arts training. But that isn't the point here. Not to mention the fact that no one in the video is wearing a Gi. Let's say a street fight does come up. I don't think I'll be sticking with any IBJJF rulesets or just Jiu Jitsu alone. OSS
@@davidjonesgriz it is just a sport and totally useless in a street fight. OSS
Lol he wasnt using bjj. You know how i know? He was actually taking him down instead of scooting
@@EugeneLatterman lol ouch 🤕
6 pts in 6 seconds
@@NotN8 for sure. That match ended up 9-0 I just couldn’t hold him down very long. It was the final match of the 3rd bracket for me and I was exhausted lol
Clean
@@hectorhernandez3606 🙏 thank you
Maybe the guy on bottom using his right hand incorrectly idk. His hand could've helped his leg block better idk he's trying to get some pressure off his neck at the same time
@@PeterSchulert yeah there were a lot of things he could have done better to be honest. It didn’t feel like my typical blue belt competition. I was having an off day and still managed to make light work. 🤷🏼♂️
Why was it a super fight when it was a brown belt against a black belt.
@@tigermike74 it makes sense for the brown belt to accept a super match with a black belt. If you win you’ve beat a black belt If you lose well “Of course you lost it was a black belt”. So no real downside for that person
Looks like a 40 plus pound weight difference?
@@garrydye2394 I couldn’t find the weight classes for the fighters and they weren’t disclosed 🤷🏼♂️sorry
What choke was that?
@@Josh-fh1rm far as I could tell a cross collar. Like a bow and arrow. She went from having a body lock to hooking the leg and pinning the arm. I couldn’t see where the left hand was but the right hand was coming around for the collar
Then its called wrestling
I guess that's why they call No Gi Jiu Jitsu "Submission Wrestling" :)
So dope bro !
@@bryanpina324 🙏 thank you
'Okay. This one video disproves all videos we saw that proved BJJ is mostly worthless when not on the ground, you win. Congratz'
Yes! Winning! lol
Jiu Jitsu IS real.... But unfortunately for the younger guy, so is both wrestling and/or Judo....
@@joshclearwater6461 lol for sure
Wonder if he's aware that's wrestling.. not jiu-jitsu
There's no chance that those things might overlap slightly? If all the takedowns are either wrestling or Judo... what does that leave Jiu Jitsu?
The BJJ guy is getting completely manhandled here
@@tellarty that’s what happens sometimes, in the absolute division
Just realized you go to the gym I used to go to in Portland, OR. I was only there for a few months in 2023, never got to roll with you. I remember there was a humongous brown belt who smashed me. Would like to see you against him. I used to go shower at the planet fitness in that strip mall after practice (was living in my car). Good times. I've since moved back to Cincinnati.
@@RichardOwen-p3h was that in the Gi or No Gi? I’ve got several class rounds with Damon in one of my playlists. Dan Rolfe is another big brown belt but he is usually a visitor. I hope to get a round with him soon and post it
@@davidjonesgriz It may have been Dan Rolfe, I looked him up and Dan definitely looks like the guy I rolled with. I spoke with him and discovered he's an engineer like myself. Not sure if Dan's an engineer. It's possible the guy I'm thinking of no longer trains there.
It was no gi but I think he was wearing gi pants.
Good grinding 2nd match.
@@zerzes it was a great battle we were both wasted afterwards. Good times 🙏
Nice work
@@hectorhernandez3606 thank you 🙏
What is fake and why he keeps standing up?
@GenDominion "Jiu Jitsu is Fake, just stand up" is a common misconception that Jiu Jitsu doesn't actually work and you could just stand up. Even when that is the case, that doesn't mean you won't get taken down again. Jiu Jitsu matches start from standup and the first goal in the match is to get a take down. He keeps standing up to get out of a bad position. If he doesn't get up, I'll continue to secure my position and start working for a submission.
Oh, thanks. I just didn’t grasp the concept of the quote I guess lol if I were the slim guy I would look for leg locks and del la hiva sweep, tripod sweep, triangle, etc. I love both Gi and NoGi
what roll alot was this ?

@ I mean, Spokane is quite the drive. But it was a good tournament. See you in Salem in two weeks?
@@davidjonesgriz yeah I should be there

@@MarathonMadeGalatians5-22 lol 💯
Are those the revolutions medals? You must be from Washington. I’ve competed in 2 revs so far sense I got back into BJJ I’m a master 2 blue belt I train at UTC Washington.
@@AaronJohnson-fz5pw I’m from Oregon but yes they are Rev medals. I try to hit all 3 of their events every year. Probably walked by each other before and didn’t realize. See you in April?
@ I did see you. You bet our heavy weight guy. I plan on doing NAGA this year too. See you in April bro
Idk why but that last takedown reminded me of what belal did to leon😂 keep up the good work mate
@@MakeFood-sc4of 🙏 thank you
at 1:55 when the guard is passed look to secure the underhooks/crossface and apply heavy top pressure. Really drop all of your weight on his upper chest
@@MCJOHNSON95 that was my teammate but I’ll definitely pass on the advice. 🙏🤙🏻
As a big dude, i use this a lot. Give this a try, hook his leg and pull it up like you would control the knee in a traditional bow and arrow. Creates some serious crushing pressure on the diaphragm and ribs.
@@Mark-gi4tp I’ve tried that as well. Seems like one way works better against some people and this way works against others. I’ll keep working the leg hook too. Just trying to dial it in to work every time 🤙🏻🙏 Thanks for dropping the knowledge I’ll happily soak it up from every source 🙏

The older man has definitely trained in wrestling in addition to BJJ. A truly awesome combination of grappling arts.
@@millerjohn619 older guy! Just because I turned 40 on Thursday! Haha, no wrestling except what we have gone over in Jiu Jitsu class!

@ we’ve got several experienced wrestlers and even a couple of people who coach wrestling. So I’ve gotten some tips along the way and continue to work with them when I can.

@ no offense taken. Most days I feel that way. Until i take more than a day, maybe two a week off to rest.
Better if you isolate his hip and come over with your hips pointed up, would make the lift/mat return much easier, good technique Edit, not too great of an explainer so ask if theres any need for clarification
