Fight to Win Pro 2 was an amazing display of grappling, showcasing some of the toughest competitors in the region.
The Cole-Train was impressive as usual, showing off his passing and top game against, John Abney, another talented competitor. So impressed by this young man.
Fight to Win put on a professional event, a host of world class fighters were on display, and they put on a show. Can't wait for the next one!
Jiu Jitsu at it’s highest level was on display this past weekend in San Antonio, TX.
Competitors train their mind and body into a weapon then come together to test their skill and strategy against the best in the world.
It’s a funny how your perception of time is affected in a competition like this. Time seems stretched while you’re in a jiu jitsu match, 30 seconds can seem like an eternity.
At the same time it’s over in an instant, but also lasts a lifetime.
It’s an incredible sensation and if you haven’t competed before I’d suggest that it’s an interesting way to learn a lot about yourself.
My team, RPBJJ, put on a dominant performance. In a tournament w over 600 competitors we took our team of 38 students.
Everyone fought hard and we won the Second Place Overall trophy.
I’m so proud of everyone’s hard work and effort and can’t wait to put some points up with you all again.
Huge thanks to Rodrigo Pinheiro and Pete Spratt, the coaches and staff, and all the family and friends that come out to support the team.

Don't let the good looks fool you, these are some of the toughest cats I know
What a way to start my new blog.
Having a legend in the sport as part of a promotion is special.
I was really happy to see my friends and teammates hard work recognized, especially my brother Anthony who earned his purple belt.
Jiu Jitsu is a long journey that at times can feel like you haven't accomplished much and you're only spinning your wheels. Then you have days like this, proud days, that are a culmination of all your blood, sweat, and tears. In that instance and for the rest of your life, you'll know that you did something worth doing.
Congratulations to everyone that was promoted.
I look forward to breaking in those new belts with you!
