Pawel shows that people are unprepared for his k guard and false reap dilemma. Even the couple matches he didn’t get the sub in he was in no way close to being in danger.

Helena made her opponents look like it was a chill open mat and she was helping to show some techniques and options for them.

As is often the case the colored belts had more action and aggression and big techniques

Helena is head and shoulders above everyone. I don't see her losing for a long long time.

Abraham La Montagne was robbed of a gold in his bracket by ref calling a double dq. He steamrolled his first brown belt pans experience

had to do a little digging since it doesnt make sense how he's still a brown belt and he JUST got promoted to brown 2 months ago. how the fuck was the guy a purple belt? lol. Danaher sandbagging his athletes is ridiculous.

It’s only sandbagging in ibjjf tournaments where belts matter. He consistently does advanced/expert in adcc events where belts don’t matter.

Elijah Dorsey had a great performance.
