Gables are my favorite I've been wearing them for like 10-15 years. Do it.

The Adidas combat speeds are also good and less than half the price.

Also: backstory for injuries please.

Ended up picking the gables for both myself and my brother...

Backstory on injuries..

Just finished a judo tournament and came out with no injuries or anything.. The Monday afterwards, was doing BJJ and at the end of class we were starting stand up.. went against a fairly big guy(250/260 vs me at 155) and I guess a freak accident just happened.. he went for some kinda reap and ended up placing his foot on the outside of my knee and kicked it in.. tore my MCL..

Took 2-3 months off and healed, was gradually just doing BJJ and everything.. was at a Kroger's parking lot and a guy approached me asking for money.. ended up pulling a knife on me. He proceeded to lunge at me and try to stab me.. thankfully for boxing, I took a step forward and cut the corner on him and gave him a hook to the face.. He stumbled and dropped the knife and ran off.. Luckily for me he only got a chance to cut me on my hand.. I was pretty freaked out as this is the first time anything like this happened to me and blood was everywhere..

So yeah... after I got cut I pretty much just stopped all training until just 3 weeks ago. Signed up for the IBJJF Houston Open.. have no idea what made me do it.. but I did it anyways.. ended up winning the first round via points and losing the second round via points.. but got a good learning experience.. time to train again!!

Heres a link to my blog if anyone wants to follow..

If you're doing it for fun then yeah just do it and have fun.

If you are doing it because you are a competitive asshole like me then maybe get back into training a bit then get in on the next go-around.

Caio Terra had some big balls calling out the top bjjers on steroid use after he defeated Bruno Malfacine.

So who do you train under?

I had a seminar with the Austrian Judo master Roman Jahoda on Saturday, followed up by a BJJ seminar with Chris McCune.

Oh my I'm so sore.

To make it even worst, I had full contact boxing sparring the night before the two.

I'm getting 2 hour private classes with Kru Kay Sasiprapa (Raja Champ, Channel 7 champ, 250 fights), 5 days a week, until early december.

It's been 1 week and I'm already getting much better and I'm in even better shape.

So stoked.

Congrats on the belts guys!
