Taps: 6. Total: 97.
Had a feeling that BB Uday misunderstood my BB speech where I count taps. He's created a spreadsheet to keep track of his TAPs, and has been going around telling everyone about it, and also saying that I was the inspiration for it.
But but, he's counting when He taps others, whereas I am counting when OTHERS tap ME. It's like collecting scalps or notches on your belt. It's the opposite of what i am doing and what BB Keith Owens (RIP, 2022).
“I have tapped 10,000 times… that is the quota you need to give to become a black belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu.” He stresses in this inspiring video, that the journey to a black belt is not about tapping others out, but rather about being tapped out yourself, a process that fosters learning and growth.
Also rolled with a JJ Machado BB, who was quite good at Truck and nullified by Octopus game by rolling into Truck and its subs, calf slicers etc. He mounted and baited me, giving me an ankle for quarter guard so he could roll me.
There was a moment where we were inverted and in equal position, where Ryan Hall talks about either person could roll the other and i couldn't remember, until i asked him about it and i could see better when he was doing it on someone else.
Basically, it's the HIPs. My hips were up and higher than his, so i had no leverage. Whereas his were on the mat. Also, my leg was in too deep in the crook of behind his knee. Had to be out more on his calf.
