Nick Stiles competed earlier today at the World Grappling Federation Atlantic Open tournament, winning 2 Championship Belts - one for first place in Advanced No Gi and one for first place in Advanced Gi. He stepped up a weight range in order to face tougher competition (he weighed in at 78.4# but fought up in the 80-89.9# division), but still won all his matches decisively - three of his four matches ended with him scoring a submission, and only one opponent scored any points at all against him (final score in that match was 2-9, Nick's favor), and that opponent outweighed him by at least 20 pounds (she was moved in because she had no one suitable in her weight range to compete against in gi matches).
This is his first round Gi match, which he wins by armbar.
Nick is a Gracie Jiu Jitsu student of Daniel Moraes and Ryan Brinkman at Relson Gracie Jacksonville.
