I don't remember the lady I was with but she was pretty awesome.
Was it the older woman named Karen? I've KNOW I've seen her before, but I forget where (I mean, it must have been some other tournament a few years ago or something).
All I tired was uchi mata
Freudian slip? But yeah, you should totally have dominated this guy if you were 100% healthy and would still have outscored him this time if you'd stalled majorly for those last twenty seconds.
He tried some bad choke on me and lifted up too high, I blocked the choke then turned him over for the pin. I felt bad beating him, since he had just lost by pin, but whatever. I told him later how he could have gotten me with the choke.
Yeah, you took that second guy to "What not to do in newaza" school. Once you had him pinned, after about ten seconds he just kind of gave up, which was a bit disappointing, but whatever.
I was also enrolled in the senior mens 100+ kg. That meant I was fighting blackbelts and... the huge guy. I rushed over to fight probably the nicest guy in the
( ... )
Overall, I think if you hadn't been sick or injured, the only people you might not have beaten would have been the huge guy, the guy who armbarred you, and the older blackbelt who threw you on your head. And you should have stood a much better than even chance against the older guy.
The first throw I did to him was de ashi harai. It was a foot sweep on his right leg, and I wasn't far enough to his side for it to be ko soto. I ended up pushing him away when I realized I wouldn't get it, but yeah it was totally only there for a second.
Later on I was just seeing if he'd give me his leg, and if he had, I probably would have done Sukui. For the most part the turning was trying to get him off balance for Uchi Mata.
Did you see June sensei in my corner ever? The little guy who kept telling me to go for a high grip?
I don't know. I probably saw him at some point. But I don't particularly remember anyone telling you to go for a high grip. And unless he was all, "Nick Prescott: you must go for a high grip now!" I probably wouldn't even have even noticed what he was saying because there were so many other people saying so many other things...
