Thanks for the update! I'm not sure about the whole not tapping thing though- ever had your arm broken in a match?

It sounds to me like you held your own pretty well, especially having to go against those with that much more experience than you. In the end, you learned something, too. Congrats!

Hey.... I am happy cuz I gave 110 %.... I knew that the victory was impossible (specially in the first fight) , I just stood to lose with dignity,and to make the other guy sweat .
It was an honor for me to fight with superior grapplers.

In the tournament files , I have lost the fight .... In my path as a martial artist and as a man , It was a victory , I won against my previous skills...I fought better than I do at my gym..

This one is the first time in my life that I am happy after losing.
