Flashback Kron 6 Degrees of Kevin Bacon BJJ Matches (Where Are They Now?) & Upcoming Tournaments

Tomorrow night I'm doing a 10 min Gi Purple Belt match submission or points to win at an MMA event here locally in Durham, NC.

















Next weekend I'm competing and reffing with the fine folks of US Grappling in Greensboro on November 15th.







Above is Kron vs Beneil Dariush at black belt, in the Abu Dhabi Pro Trials.
Interesting to note Beneil is now in the UFC and Kron makes his MMA debut later this year in Japan.


 
Above we see Kron beating Otavio Sousa at brown belt, fast forward and Otavio is two-time world champion (though recently thwarted by Leandro Lo who continues to move up weight classes, and Kron has beaten Otavio in a moral victory in a submission only 20 minute match at the Metamoris and in the ADCC by guillotine. 

The last US Grappling event of the year is December 13th in Richmond, Virginia and it's Submission Only.

US Grappling Richmond This Weekend

I'll be reffing and competing this weekend in Richmond, Virginia for the professional folks at US Grappling.
As a competitor they run a superbly professional event, on time, with some of the best reffing I've seen at various Jiu-Jitsu events over the years since I began competing.

It's a points tournament (they also run amazing Submission Only events) and if you're anywhere near the area, come compete. Especially if you're a purple belt featherweight (my division).

I'll be working at my weekend job downtown Friday night, then riding up Saturday morning to referee, compete, and then make the sojourn back to NC to work the door again downtown.
Coffee and Jiu-Jitsu to be sure.
