are we talking about win loss in matches or how many divisions we win.
my total grappling record is 14-4 ( i think )
2008 casca grossa mens no gi beg. 3rd place / 159 lbs
2008 naga no gi intermed. 1st place / 149 lbs ( only tournament i ever won ) 5 winz 5 triangles.
I got my blue from Juntta. ANd for purple I think I should know some jiu-jitsu.
My grappling record has chancged since last time.
current grappling record. 39-34
I got bronze in ADCC Finnish open and silver in BJJ finnish championships. (open weight I didnt acheave any medals)
Next mundials. On my categry there is allready 16 guys so I think this would be a grat test for me. I hope to finnish on medals.
Sadly 0-1 but it was a good learning experience. Changes your frame of mind a little bit. Video's here.
Well, I gotta say the stuff prior to the takedown was a bit, IDK, spaztic? But anyway, how long you been training? You did great to get out of that arm bar, that was nice, and I'd say you're well on your way! Don't let a loss discourage you, take the positives from it, and be ready next time!!!!!!!!!!!
I'd been training for about 8 months at that point. We hadn't worked many takedowns but I gave it a try. I'm definitely going to compete again. I certainly came out of it stronger.
Don't be so modest JanneYou are definatley purple belt level. On a good day you can beat any blue belt in your division! I stronly believe that you will win the Mundials too, don't know if your division fought it out already?! Ilari has his fights today atleast (purple)...
I've never really counted matches. I know I've lost some. I know I've won a lot more than I've lost, and I've got a handful of medals (some from in house tournaments and small local shows in California, others from more sizable tournaments).
The reality is, if you're an active jiu-jitsu competitor, you lose sometimes. Unless you're gonna Rickson Gracie your record, don't worry about losing. Worry about getting better so you can beat the guy's ass next time, and always focus on the match in front of you (even if its not for a medal or for competition at all).
Anyway, at this point I probably have well over a hundred competition matches, so I've stopped counting.
