AAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!

It was another great weekend for team Lloyd Irving. We had a lot of guys fighting at different tournaments this weekend.
Tye Ryan Murphy (Crazy 88) and Roberto Torralbas (Third Law BJJ) flew to Brazil to fight at the Rio International Open at the end of the week. Both guys did very well. Tye choked two guys unconscious before going out in the quarterfinals to what I understand was an odd scoring situation and Roberto took 3rd. Roberto lost in the semi’s to the guy who took first by a footlock. Unfortunately Roberto’s leg was hurt and he was not able to enter into the open the next day.
Crazy 88 BJJ also sent a few guys to a tournament up in PA (Rupture grappling championship). Everyone did very well bringing home a lot of medals. One of our teammates Jon Delbrugge had his first Super Fight at this tournament. Jon outscored Chris Wing for the win. It was a great fight. Before the fight Wing made the ridiculous statement that talent trumps hard work. Jon worked very hard to get ready for this fight but I guess Wing now just thinks Jon is more talented…
Also this weakened JT Torres defeated Dan Simmler in a super fight at Grapplers quest. This is the start of the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu calendar. In BJJ the world championships are in June so the new training and tournament season starts in July. We are off to a good start and plan to keep it up. The tournaments get tougher as the year goes on with the ultimate goal being the worlds.
