Tim Spriggs Calls Out Gordon Ryan: ‘He has a made-up injury’

“He saw what I was able to do as a hobbyist against a guy that he didn’t want to have a match-up with (Duarte). And I love Flograppling but let’s be real here. It was set up for Kaynan versus Gordon. I played the spoiler. I got the job done in a spectacular fashion.

“And I let it be known that Gordon, whenever your tummy ache is over. Whenever you’re ready, I’ll be waiting for you.

“And another thing too. I think its crazy how, if your’e a champion, right? Before the tournament he says it’s an interim title. It’s an interim title, right? You never had the title buddy. You never had the title. If you are the real champion, and I won the interim title, wouldn’t it behoove you to go and get your title? I literally pointed to the center of the mat, picked up the proverbial crown and placed it on my head with him in the audience. And he’s just gonna sit on the sideline and still claim to be the best? Check the rankings, I’m ranked higher than him anyway…

“He’s full of contradictions. I still want the match. I believe it’s gonna happen. Because how long is he gonna be able to lie to the public? How long is he gonna be able to hide behind the fact that he has a made-up injury? I’ve had serious injuries. I’ve had serious intestinal damage where I almost died. Within a year I won the world title. Within six weeks I was back training. But it is what it is…

“I would just love to have the match. I think it’s the match-up that everybody wants to see. I know for sure it’s the match everyone wants to see. And I’m all about giving the people what they want.”

Pierre Manzo and Arthur Leroy from Jiu Jitsu Family at Casa de Luta Saarbrücken

Yesterday, Saturday, we had the visit of our brother and good friend, Pierre Manzo , black belt under Robert Drysdale , and Head Coach at Jiu Jitsu Family. Along with him, one of his students, a talented 20 year old monster, who has been training already, in teams like the B-Team in Texas with Craig Jones, Nick Rodriguez, Nicky Ryan, Oliver Taza, etc.. The Open Mat started as usual at Casa de Luta Saarbrücken at 11:00, where every team is welcome and completely free of charge. Pierre and I got together for more than an hour where we were able to kill each other and exchange knowledge during the rolls, as well as help him with the mechanics of some of my leglocks. I also had the opportunity to roll with Arthur, Pierre's talented young student, a very technical guy with great precision on his attacks, with very good guard passes to back take, dangerous! Very dangerous. So I had to be careful with my leg attacks, avoiding at all times exposing my back by actively changing positi

BJJ SAARBRÜCKEN: Trivium’s Matt Heafy “BJJ is a way of life”

Matt Kiichi Heafy is one the many rock stars bitten by the Brazilian jiu-jitsu bug. The 31-year-old lead singer and guitarist for the heavy metal band Trivium has been training BJJ since 2013 (ten years after the band’s first album), and he has developed such a fondness for the Gracie art that he brings a trainer and a set of mats around with him on tour. Even if you’re not a heavy metal fan, you’re probably familiar with Matt Heafy. Last year, our very own Emil Fischer sat down with him to talk about his love of Brazil’s soft art. Yesterday afternoon, Emil once again sat down with Heafy, who’s now a two-stripe purple belt. This time, though, I had the pleasure of joining in. The three of us talked about leg locks and Heafy’s love for Eddie Cummings’ style, a style which Matt sadly feels he has inadequately replicated. He even went so far as to apologize to Cummings for it. He also found out that for Matt Heafy, the saying “BJJ is a way of life” is more than just a cliche. Brazil
