Got 🥈place today at the ADCC DALLAS OPEN.
I earned 2nd place today after losing my first match in overtime by referee decision. I came back strong, dominated my second match, and won my third by default.
I had an incredible experience at the ADCC Dallas Open. The atmosphere was amazing, the event was extremely well run, the staff was professional and friendly, and all of the competitors were tough, respectful, and brought great energy to the mats.
One of the highlights of the day was having my son, Ethan, there to support and coach me throughout the tournament. That made this experience even more meaningful. Best Father’s Day gift ever.
I’m grateful to be back on the podium, and today reminded me that all I need to do is keep showing up, keep working hard, and trust the process. I left everything on the mats and gave it my all.
Thank you to my family, friends, and students for all the love and support throughout this journey. I truly appreciate every one of you.
All glory to God for blessing me today with this amazing opportunity.
Coach Mike isn’t done yet. The work continues. 🦾🔥
