CONGRATS TO SHARON AND BRAD

I had the honor to Promote Sharon Bonewicz, and Brad Daddis to the rank of Black Belt infront of our whole team yesterday. There were over 15 Black Belts present, including Master Lloyd Irvin, and Master Leo Dalla. Both Sharon and Brad are long time students of mine, and have dedicated a large portion of thier lives to training, learning, teaching, competing, and living Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Sharon is also the first female Black Belt on Team Lloyd Irvin, which is a true inspirtation for all the ladies on the team. I am very proud of both of you, keep training hard, and stay dedicated!!

Wilson wins at Elite XC!!

It's hard for me to find the propper word to describe Wilson's performance on Friday night on the EliteXC card at the Taj Majal. Amazing, unreal, insane or perfect....... any of these words pretty much sums it up!!! Wilson submitted his challenger early in the second round with a head and arm choke from the top position, but not before inflicting a good amount of damage in the first round and he pretty much did the same thing in the second round until he was able to secure the submission for the victory! Wilson also showed he is not afraid to stand up and throw hands along with throw those killer knees from the clinch. Wilson's takedowns were top notch, and once again he out wrestled a D-1 wresting champion. I can guarantee you that the 145lbers out there took notice that there is a new threat on the scene named Wilson Reis! Congrats Wilson!

Everyone should try to make it into class tonight to get a first hand account from Wilson himself. He was truly greatful for all the supporters that showed up, and he asked me to send out a GIANT THANK YOU to everyone that supported him.

The next tournament will be on Febuary 9th at Daddis Fight Camps (the Cherry hill NJ location) The tournament will be Gi and No-Gi. These tournaments have been great in the past and I recomend everyone to check it out. The Superfights are the following.

Jared Weiner (bjj united/lloyd irvin) Vs. Oscar Jr (att) Gi Match
Wilson Reis (bjj united/godoi) Vs. Rafael Barbosa "Formiga" (Tatu/Formiga Team) no-gi match
Jay Hayes ( perfromance/ bjj united) vs. Ken Primola ( balance) gi match
Ryan Hall (Lloyd Irvin) Vs TBA no-gi match

See you on the mat.
