No Gi Worlds 2009

http://www.nogi.com/live/

Live stream, dig it.

thk u!

 Any live chat anywhere?  I'm watching the stream but wish I could get info on who's grappling... what bracket, round etc.

I have no clue. I think Barnett just competed? I'm honestly trying to figure this all out but at the moment I'm lost myself.

our wutang is competing

 Man this would be great if it was combined with the live text coverage from fightworkspodcast like in ADCC.  Not too fun watching when I don't know who's competing.  



Just think I saw Daniel Moraes lose on a last second takedown to a "Diego".  The only Diego was on the other side of the posted bracket.  Is this the finals?

wutang competes in about an hour.

Nice!

wish I had a computer =(



LOL

 thanks for the link. . . WuTang on now

 maybe WuTang can tell us what just happened - it looked like he was looking for a time out and stopped playing - then his opponent got an inside out heel hook. . . weird ending and the commentators were in the middle of changing so we didn't get an explanation

 Baret Yoshida just won the Gold Medal by subbing his opponent with a RNC

Wasn't a heelhook, was just a straight ankle from what I saw.

I'm sorry, but.... Sheila was robbed against Hillary. Hillary should have lost.

Joel Tudor won his division also, world no-gi black belt champion in masters.

wu was saying something about megaton giving the stupid pass to the dude even though he was still in wu's half--pissed him off, and he let it go and got heel-hooked.

game over

Was that a heel-hook? If so that's messed up. But yeah, Wutang got screwed bad that match. I'm pretty sure he even got points scored against him for pulling guard.

 replays?

[me being a whiny bitch]
Megaton screwed me, again. The pass that he awarded periera, I had a knee in and his arm over my shin. I looked for him to call periera for stalling/running from the match the whole time. I tried to pulled guard about 10x only to have him back up. Everytime he got close to passing I dug in good underhooks and would push me down and back off. Back to him standing with my in guard going after him. He wouldn't move and just stood there and I'd go after his foot for a takedown and he'd spin and go out of bounds or just stay far away enough where I can't get to him to run away. That footlock was a straight ankle lock with a reaped knee.

Periera was up 4-0 on 2 takedowns - which by the rules counts because he timed my guard pulls to look like he was going for a takedown. That's part of the rules so I accept it. Though it was pretty obvious for the whole match that I was going to pull guard regardless of what happened.

Mr. Anaconda to respond to " it looked like he was looking for a time out and stopped playing - then his opponent got an inside out heel hook"

I stopped moving and just gave up. I was down 7-0 with 40secs left in the match. I was going against periera and the ref. periera was easily a better wrestler then I am and stopped any takedowns I tried against him.

That's my take. Sorry for the bitching. I try not to bitch and moan when I lose but when I feel I've been cheated I'll say something. I lose a lot and I think this might be the first time I've been so pissed at the ref.

I was in the chat and wondering when they would call stalling for pretty much the first 4 minutes. I mean, they called stalling with the quickness for a good majority of the other matches.

Oh well, Brazilian Favoritism rears it's head as usual.
