My Experience at Fuji Allentown 2022 - Match Breakdown
มุมมอง 3442 ปีที่แล้ว
On May 21st I traveled to Allentown to compete in my second ever BJJ tournament. I entered 3 brackets, 1 in the gi and 2 in no gi, and got to compete in 6 matches, winning a silver medal in the white belt - advanced (more than 6 months experience) 155lbs division. I had a great time and certainly learned a lot, which was my goal. This is my first time making a youtube video and making commentar...
I don't compete in bjj but when someone loses so quickly, how do they stay motivated to keep going.
Not a white belt sandbagging at its finest
Phenomenal coaching and listening! It was a joy to watch!
Bro didn’t get the warning at 0:26 and 0:30.
Great coaching
Should I even be a white belt, holy shit
Throw a 300K view party, Bennett!
Bro u made it look effortless nice job
I got caught with this once if someone’s going for inverted triangle, take your elbows pin them to your side there’s no more inverted triangle he hast to get up under your elbow, not the leg that goes over the head. That leg that goes around the body he hast to get under the elbow. Keep that pinned there’s no joke. I never ever got caught with it again.
what was the weight differential?
This video name should be named: Long legs > Short legs
Very good coach a jiu jitsu guy that is good at jiu jitsu even though he is a white belt.
Yellow guy looked like a white belt
The smell of a mans balls being the last scent you take in as you're gasping for air before you pass out... Sounds like one of the moat humiliating things in life.. It would make me scream "noooo!" in the shower and clench my fist when i flash back to that very moment.
Is this the new trend? Say you're a white belt then submit actual white belts for clout? Been seeing these more and more lately
Weep
Nice work Bennett 😸
I’d be so mad if someone’s coach was just feeding him the victory step by step like that. It seems unfair.
Да он неопытный. Сам залез
Норм занятие жопы друг друга нюхать потные волосаты)))
Random comment here, as an ex judo student blue belt level when I was young. I find Brazilian jujitsu very different in thr distance of approach and defence on ground fighting. To me they are fighting in the danger zone. Meaning not far away enough or not close enough to make locks no longer effective. One day I plan to give it a go, but in judo it's all about leverage and those huge dynamic movements. I would be levering my opponents body to get in super close for a choke or arm bar. Looks interesting, but It looks wrong to start at that point of disadvantage.
Um...these white belts are getting trickier and trickier these days. Why just the other day I saw this guy with only three months on the mats smoke a competition purple belt with a helicopter arm bar. Actually, no i didn't. Guys with three months in have no clue about those kinds of moves.
was isn't the guy in the yellow t-shirt doing anything with his left hand, if there were a real fight he would battering the guy's face and gouging his eyes
It's not a real fight
The coach won that match
You have a really good coach.
Great pupil great coach
Just curious does he put himself in danger by going for a kimura there?
Which person?
@@BennettSmolen the one setting up the reverse triangle
@@eugenekpee9556 no, a kimura is a good option here if the choke doesn't work.
i still think coaches shouldnt be allowed in beginner divisions..
I’m so used to seeing these titles and then you watch the vid and it’s like “that’s clearly not a white belt!” This one was actually cool; clearly two white belts and one was listening to his coach and got there. Awesome.
As soon as it finished I too said. Oh yeah. They’re white belts. But that was a good scrap
Nice match, kudos to both participants
Nice, Great Coaching!
Me thinking I could hit this in a match after just looking at the thumbnail and not practicing the technique 😂
That's how Jorge got caught in a fight at bellator its a good choke
Fuck guard pulling and side line coaching. Why do you think these are both banned in judo?
Weep
@@BennettSmolen 🤣
Is slamming opponents legal? If so he could have Rampaged Jackson the guy.
Reminds me of my first inverted triangle. Felt like a cat stuck in a tree, "now what?" 😂
"He's a white belt"=he's a dude whose trainer didn't promote him to blue belt yet. It can be arbitrary and many coaches intentionally delay promotion so that their teams can win in tournaments. Not saying that's necessarily what happened here but something to be aware of
As a white belt I couldn't compute what a "reverse inverted triangle" meant in that kind of situation.
Wow, I never knew that was a submission position. Looks very odd, but it clearly works! Cool video
Very sneaky if you've never trained it before or you've never been inverted before you won't see it coming until it's locked in.
Can't lie the guy on top could have done more things
Was the opponent a black belt
Excellent work and great coaching! Respect
What is the point of competing if you’re just following instructions from someone who knows 1000 times more than your competitor? What happens when the coach isn’t there? The whole point of martial arts is you against them, not you, and your coach, and your friends, and your family, and your Instagram butt buddies against them.
Mad guy
Lmao… that might be the dumbest opinion I’ve ever heard
That’s great coaching, but isn’t it better to let students use their own knowledge. Isn’t that more fun as well for the competitor. What’s the point of winning in this way. IMO no one should give advice mat side, because I would rather lose than win knowing it was not 100% me
Weep
Bro didn’t know wtf a tricep was
Fart to make this sub 3x as effective
nice work bennet
Thanks!
Im a bit confused.Why not just stomp his face in when he lays down? Like just jump up in the air and land both feet on his head, lol.
Because that's against the rules
@@BennettSmolen when he lays down on the ground, does the other opp have to engage him, or can he just walk around him until he gets up
@@puunersjabski6487 btw, I am the guy who sits down, it's called 'pulling guard'- most people choose to engage the person who pulls guard because they believe their top game is superior to the guard puller's bottom game. They can get 3 points if they pass the guard. I'm not 100 percent sure but I don't think the ref would stand me up if the top percent doesn't engage, they might get a stalling penalty
@@BennettSmolen I'm sure ypu would be allowed to circle you, until u exhaust yourself
This is not a street fight lol this is an actual sport with rules. Imagine a basketball player tackling dudes to get a bucket ...
I’m a white belt. I’ve competed twice. Once in Gi and once in Nogi. And I’ve been subbed in both competitions in my first match. But I’m determined to get my wins going
i would simply just not get subbed 3 times in a row
@@cashmoneyshaz hmmm that could work
This is my first year wrestling and I've only one 1 match out of the 8 or 9 I've had. Don't give up man
@@cashmoneyshaz would you even be allowed to get to the next match if you still lose the first on points?
@@ShakTMT i’ve never fought a day in my life i have zero idea what ur in about sadly
0:53 Is it allowed to try and choke your opponent with your hands?
It depends on the ruleset, but regardless it isn't a very effective choke as it leaves you vulnerable to armbar. In this instance I think he was more posting on my neck as opposed to actually trying to choke me
He’s clearly posting and probably wasn’t sure what to do to stand.
