Owen Livesey at ADCC 2022 in the -99KG
Breaking!! Owen Livesey steps in for Luccas Lira in the -99kg Division 💪
Polaris and Grapplefest vet, British grappler, coach, and black belt judoka and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu under Carlson Gracie Jr.
With a background of competitive judo, Livesey always puts on a great show, bringing us all the throws. Livesey competed in judo at an international level at black belt for Great Britain and England and won the gold medal at the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. Livesey is a 2nd dan black belt in judo, gaining his 1st dan at the age of 16.
Owen Livesey was a few weeks ago in Casa De Luta Saarbrücken, where he spent four days and in two of them he held a seminar showing his fantastic skills in Wrestling and Judo, and where one himself, had the opportunity to be training with him during those 4 days.
Recent victories include a win against Michael Pixley on Grapple Fest 12 last month via decision and his last two fights on Polaris where he fought Frederic Vosgrone (Polaris 19) and Max Bickerton (Polaris 18) both of which he won via decision and put on a spectacular show. Livesey also made it to the ADCC finals at the European trials this year.
After building a name for himself on the grappling scene, Livesey has recently given MMA a go, diving straight in at pro – having had no fights at amateur – and came out with a victory. His MMA debut was aired on Caged Steel 25, against Liam Gregory, and Livesey got a TKO finish in the 1st round. Showing a beautiful display of jiu jitsu, Livesey got on top, throwed some vicious strikes and got stopped by the ref with one minute left of the first round.
