The fifth installment of the popular submission only contest, TUFF, was held on Saturday 19th November. The Circus Tavern in Purfleet appears to be its permanent home, and it's a decent sized venue, large enough to accomodate the big stage and the audience around it but not so large that it becomes cavernous.

TUFF 5 was bigger and even better than the previous TUFF contests (TUFF 3 report, TUFF 4 report), with over 18 fights. There was added prestige too as the event was streamed live over on Flograppling.com. It was also nice of the organisers to invite my brand, Meerkatsu, among the list of official sponsors.

Here are some action photos taken by me:

Daniel Strauss is a busy man. Teaching nogi classes four or five times a week, competing at international events (he recently was on EBI) and recording episodes for his Raspberry Ape podcast.

A couple weeks back I was invited onto the show and we spent an enjoyable couple hours talking about a lot of BJJ related stuff. In amongst the banter and small talk, I cover my story on how I began BJJ, how I began my brand and on many issues in general.

You can grab is here on soundcloud or here on iTunes.

Enjoy!

Introduction
Paul Schreiner is an American BJJ black belt under Claudio Franca and currently one of the main instructors at Marcelo Garcia Academy in New York. Schreiner is one of those names you come across often by way of his reputation as an amazing instructor. He's often cited on forums for example and Ryan Hall mentions him often across his many BJJ instructionals. Based on his reputation, I was keen to find out for myself how well he would translate across through the medium of video instruction.
