Good times. Dave ran a pressure cooker on me that night. Made me defend everything, kept me moving. I reached lactic acid threshold twice, threw up twice. Nothing sucked more than hearing Dave giggle at me while I threw up. Everywhere I went, Dave was waiting with a submission, or just crush me on my back. Anyone who's never trained or sparred against a BJJ Blackbelt has zero idea what I'm talking about. It's the most humbling experience ever. I've also trained with Todd Nathanson at their Gym, the man is walking encyclopedia of Jiu Jitsu. His boys are top notch coaches and competitors. If you are in the Chatsworth area, worth a visit. Let's just say we had a 10th P Blackbelt come in once and had trouble tapping one of our purples.
One on one, BJJ is the king of fighting arts.

After 7 years as a bluebelt, I'm now a purple. Blackbelt seems reachable now.
