manutdfan Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 Just wanted to let you guys know that I got the silver medal(Blue Belt Lightweight No-Gi) at NAGA New England this past weekend. Tweaked my neck in the finals going for a flying armbar, and just basically survived for the last 4-5 minutes of the fight. I hope to have a better showing at the NAGA East Coast Championships.

manutdfan Posted February 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 To get through all the replies: - I do plan on competing in the future. I've competed in 6 tournament brackets in the last year-plus, medaling in all(1 Gold, 2 silver, 3 bronze) - I love football, and don't reallly care about 'hand-egg'(anyone who's seen the pic knows what I mean) - My family is only a couple generations from England(Manchester and London to be exact), so that's why I'm a Manc supporter. - No real reason on the seperation between us and the bronze medalist.

brewster Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 I always feel a sense of overwhelming pride when I see manuntdfan do well in NAGA. Not that I had anything to do with it, but that I feel he is a great great man who I have watched develop into a grappling superstar. manuntdfan also designed the Team G-row shirts some of you have purchased. I know you may be disappointed with silver because of the injury holding you back in your match, I can bet that your coaches are infinitely proud of you and what you have accomplished in such a short period of time. You my friend are the next prodigy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manutdfan Posted February 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 Thank you very much Brew. As always, knowing the strength you posess yourself is a motivation to press through. Getting up at 4:45am for BJJ training is nothing compared to your daily battle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
