Scott Sonnon 2010 World Martial Arts Games Highlights Grappling Jiujitsu MMA

[nunh]

Very impressive!

[bouddi]

Scott, you're an inspiration to all us "old" guys out here. Age is just a number. I hope I can overcome some of the hurdles life has thrown at me as well as you have.

How come sometimes they are wearing gi and sometimes they are not? What are the rules?

[thermaxgym]

@jeyel71 It's a "triathlon" of three separate events: Submission grappling (gi), Sport Jiujitsu (MMA w/gi), and Grapple/Strike (MMA nogi)

so the other guys were bjj black belts? he was messing with bjj bb´s? this guy is awsome

[Pbuilder]

Half his opponents are afraid of him!

[CNCTEMATIC]

Wow. I always thought Sonnon was a gun; certainly that he knew his Sambo and ROSS. I noticed a lot of naysayers on the web though who questioned his fighting record (not so relevant for a coach, I would have thought, but anyway). But this must silence a few critics! Gold medals in MMA in 2010, and the guy must be what? nearing 40? Very, very impressive achievements!

[thermaxgym]

@CNCTEMATIC He's 41. It was a great victory for Sambo and Systema, and Sonnon.

[HughSlaman]

@CNCTEMATIC As for the critics and naysayers, just remember, "they only try to tackle the one with the ball!"

[astiagogo]

Oh Scott should have his own country he won enough medals lol!

[arseny]

[S3TPROGRAM]

Grande Scott... grande!!

[mykhendrix]

Hi Coach Sonnon! Are you a BJJ Black Belt?

[thermaxgym]

@mykhendrix No, he was asked to fight at black belt level due to his years of experience. He demonstrated the application of his Sambo skills to the Jiujitsu environment.

[Aniketos00]

Well done :)
