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.

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
