So of course he wakes up on Sunday morning feeling pretty damn good.

Now there's an interesting twist here.

His opponent-

is a talented young Irishman who won European trials, I believe, almost entirely with leg locks.

And almost all of his major attacks in the tournament so far have been leg locks.

Now, bear in mind that a year ago, Giancarlo was losing to local blue belt competitors via leg lock.

So in my mind, I'm thinking, okay, how's he going to handle this?

Will the leg lock training kick in?

And you'll see the result.

Yes.

His opponent, Owen from Ireland, is employing the same tactics that we made famous years ago.

The idea of sitting to butterfly guard and looking to entangle the legs.

He's kind of playing that game.

So John Carter's obviously used to this from training in the gym.

So he's doing a good job of preventing entanglement, controlling his opponent's shoelaces, and moving out to an angle, which limits his opponent's entry options.

So hands on the shoelaces and angles is a good defense here.

It's an initial defense.

Now his opponent wants to get underneath the center of gravity.

So Giancarlo wants to get outside the line of his legs.

At some point, your opponent is going to entangle.
