Hey guys!

 
I’m here wrapping up my second day of intensive training here at the GFTEAM training camp and so far its been the best preparation I've ever had for a tournament.
 

 Hey everybody!! 
 

Hey everybody!!
 

 Hey everybody!
 
The Pan Jiu-Jitsu Championships 2012 was an exciting event for everyone involved but for me it was an emotional roller coaster that ended up leaving me disappointed and full of motivation.
 

 Hey everybody!!
 
Yesterday was the last day of Caio Terra's training camp for lightweight athletes and it was a killer camp that I am really glad to have been able to participate in. 
 

Hey Everybody!!
 
This past weekend I had the opportunity to fight with one of my biggest inspirations in Kron Gracie at the San Diego Abu Dhabi Pro Trials.
 

 Hey everybody!
 
This Saturday is the Abu Dhabi Pro Trials in San Diego and It looks like my division is shaping up to be the toughest and most exciting of the entire event!!
 
I'm competing in the 163 and below Brown and Black Belt division among some of the best competitors in the world including Kron Gracie, Zak Maxwell, Mike Fowler, Marcos Torregrosa and Ryan Beauregard. Also in the division are some of my rivals in Tim Peterson, Ryan Sosa, Beneil Dariush and Tanner Rice, any of which I would love to have a rematch against.

 Hey everybody!!
