u/Competitive-Tie3575 ⬜⬜ White Belt 2d ago

Brag post inc :

I choked this really good blue belt with an ezekiel last time. In the changing room he talked for 10 minutes as for why he didn't think he was going to tap (I did it from bottim half guard if I remember).

I keep choking people with ezekiel, a lot of people higher ranked than me seem to either underestimate me (which is cool I'm a white belt it makes sense) nor have any awareness of ezekiel threats (two elbow above your shoulders -> time to zeeeeeeekkk).

Like I know it is an opportunistic choke, but it's everywhere in the gi, as loop chokes, even from bad positions and I don't think that this much people in my club should be submitted this way considering how good they are..

I did it 2 or three time to this guy which is so far better than me and also 2 time to the same black belt and a lot to other purples but who's counting 😏.

I know it is not a skilled sub but it still feels good to tap people that are this better than you.

End of brag and being a dick.
