Not well.
Lost both fights.
First fight was against an american with an excellent double leg (must've wrestled in school) but not much ground game. Almost subbed him twice but he pulled out of the guillotine (just) and cheated when I kimura-ed him (he grabbed my shorts which is illegal in no GI). I felt a couple minutes more and I wouldve won but he won by takedown points.
Second fight was against the eventual winner of the open weight division from London shootfighters and he was tough. I tried someting flashy from butterfly guard (arm drag) but it didnt work. He passed my guard. To stop him from sinking a side mount pin in I bellied out (went face down on the floor) and came to my knees. He spun to my back and pulled me backwards and sunk the choke in (across my face at first). I half escaped but half is not good enough!
