NAGA Dallas May 12-13th

[Nate]

Anyone from here competing at NAGA this coming week? I know we had a few BJJ/Grappling guys on here before but was just seeing if anyone was going to give it a shot.

IBJJF - Dallas Open was yesterday and didn't see some people I expected to there...Daniel Roy - where you at homie?

[Wish4svts]

I think I'll be there watching, not competing.

Where do you train at?

[clevelandkid]

I'll be there to watch as well - don't like where I fall in the cutoffs at the moment (need to get to 225). I train at Machado's in the Colony, and we have a couple of guys going to compete.

Not me I havent rolled in months and would be considered a super heavy weight at the moment. 229 now and would have to go up against 300+ pounders, screw that.

[clevelandkid]

Yeah - I'm ~235ish - not looking to get squashed. Wish the event was in 3 months...

Yeah that would give me time to shed and get in some practice. Steve on this board went a few years ago and was a super heavyweight. His first match was with a 400 pounder. There is no way I'm rolling with a guy that out weighs me by 170lbs, they need to look at that weight class a little better

Get down to 225 and you dont have that issue. I may do it but it will be cruserweight purple belt. Right at 199 and just got promoted. Was going to compete at blue but whaddayado?

Hell I'm still a little white belt, coach moved so I'm stuck a whitey.

Yeah, that wasnt fun at all and not something Iwant to do again. NAGA sucks big ass donkey balls.

Congrats on your promotion Nate. Well done.

I'm working on getting down to 205lbs everyday. The plan is to make it there by Jan 1st.

I just got a membership at 24 hour fitness to try an shed a few. Health is getting better but they found something off on some current blood work so I have to get rechecked in 2 weeks. Once I get the all clear I'm dropping weight and calling your goofy ass to do some rolling.

Very nice, congrats! You outrank me now and should be able to submit me with ease.

I'm still fat and have a ways to go, but I will get there and meet my goal finally this year.
