Just wanted to congratulate my training partners, Aaron and J for their excellent showing at a Judo tournament in Prince George, BC this past weekend.
Aaron has fought twice in MMA as well as sweeping his division last spring in a sub-wrestling tournament.
This weekend, Aaron scored ippon against his first opponent in less than 20 seconds and took bronze when it was all said and done. He was eliminated by J in their match when he got countered while attacking. Anyone who's pushed with J knows there's no shame in that. hahaha Way to go Aaron!
Jeremiah hospitalized his first opponent with a huge throw and went on to win the gold by scoring 2 separate ippon and choking out another one of his opponents. J has fought a couple very tough MMA fighters and has done very well for himself, and also swept his division at the same sub-wrestling tournament that Aaron competed in.
Afterward, both of them were refused entry in the Open Class for some reason.
Nice going, guys!
