Nice job I was on the edge of my seat. wtg JT I love the matches that are like this. but most people hate them thinking that they are boring, and not realizing these are far more technical than others.

JT has the qualities of a top fighter calm and relaxed and focused and very controlled application of techniques..

I'm hoping that the continued experience of training, drilling and sparring will bring me to the level where I can conserve more energy by being able to relax more. Nice match JT!

In MMA we don't teach them to do that, they just have to listen. In grappling when you get to a stable control position you're allowed to look over for instruction. If you watch many of the high level black belt matches you'll see all of the top guys looking over to get instruction when they end up in a stuck point.

At 7:47 JT literally stops and looks at his coach then gets swept right after. It's not a good idea to look at your coach just listen and pay attention to the match. That was a beautiful match.

These are the kind of matches he needs to continue to grow. The more I see footage of him, I know for a fact that Master Lloyd has him on a direct path to reaching his goal of Black Belt World Champion. To the poster who mentioned that they cant see jt in same field as marcelo,sergio moraes or kron. What you fail to see is that JT Is not grappling a name, a popular name he is grappling another jiu jitsu practioner. JT is in that same field and if one of these guys underestimated him they would be on losing end of a submission or decision. keep it rolling JT...and Master Lloyd. JT is showing great technique.
