This week on the show, Maine and Miranda deep dive into the first half of the highly-anticipated men's Quintet bracket for Craig Jones Invitational 2. We break down four of the eight teams during this weeks preview. With the other 4 teams scheduled for next weeks show. We analyze the records and accolades, the strengths and potential vulnerabilities of each athlete on each team, and the strategic paths to victory that each team might pursue.In our preview, we start with Team 10th Planet. We discuss the interesting team dynamic and how EBI pioneers like Geo Martinez and EBI 19 Champion Alan Sanchez, who are specialists in the submission-only format, will integrate with a newer CJI Quintet format. We talk about PJ Barch, the ADCC bronze medalist, whose formidable wrestling background and top pressure has proven to be an effective against the top level. PGF, EBI and CJJ champion Ryan Aitken with his blend of classic 10th Planet style with modern high-percentage techniques adding to the interesting and unpredictable team.Next, we turn to Team Australasia, a squad meticulously assembled by respected coach and strategist Lachlan Giles, known for his analytical approach to the sport. This international lineup features the dynamic wild card IBJJF World Champion Fabricio Andrey, whose explosive and agile style makes him a threat from any position and any weight class. He is joined by Japanese competitor Kenta Iwamoto, who brings a relentless pace and a strong wrestling base. We discussed Lucas Kanard submission win at the first CJI over Victor Hugo. As well as the Giles Trials winners team Declan Moody and Belal Etiabari rounding out the team with Declan being an ADCC trials winner. We also analyze Team Americas, an intriguing DMV heavy lineup featuring athletes with diverse training backgrounds and philosophies, making them a true wild card in the bracket. This team features Deandre and Gavin Corbe, who utilize a modern, conceptual approach to training that contrasts sharply with the styles of their teammates. We looked at Elijah Dorsey, who had a strong, breakout performance at the ADCC East Coast Trials against Nicky Ryan coach of the B-team at the event. The team also includes wildcard Taylor Pearman, who achieved a 100% submission rate at the ADCC European trials, and former US National Wrestling Champion Pat Downey, whose transition into submission grappling adds a variable to the heavyweight picture.Finally, we break down the balanced and formidable Team Europe. The team is spearheaded by 20-year-old Owen Jones, who had an impressive run to fourth place at the last ADCC by defeating several established veterans. He's supported by a lineup of seasoned talent, including three-time ADCC Trials winner and wildcard Paul Ardila, whose experience is a valuable asset, former IBJJF No-Gi World Champion Charles Negromonte, and Polish competitor Marcin Maciulewicz. This combination of youthful talent and veteran savvy makes them an opponent for any team in the bracket.Next week, we will break down the other four teams in the bracket, including New Wave, B-Team, Atos, and Pedigo Submission Fighting, as well as the main event superfight between Craig Jones and Gable Steveson.Recorded 8-18-2025.

Send us a textEvan Cantor, Burt Rashbaum, and Roland LaForge have always been musicians. They've all worked to become professional musicians, but ultimately, they couldn't find a way to make a living through music. They never stopped playing, though.The three joined forces for the first time in the 2000s. Cantor and Rashbaum worked in the same building at the University of Colorado Boulder, and Cantor jumped in to play music with Rashbaum and LaForge as a bassist.Cantor tapped in for the bassist of a band that Rashbaum and LaForge were a part of, Too Much Jones, named after the founders and head brothers of the band, Mark and Craig Jones. On one of the nights Cantor tapped in for rehearsal, only he, Rashbaum, and LaForge came to the rehearsal room.The three decided to jam and see what happened, and they realized they could form a band on their own. Craig, wanting to step away from a long-term band project, is now considered one of the godfathers of the new project the three formed, now called The CBDs.

This week on the show Maine and Miranda preview Nick Rodriguez vs Victor Hugo for the fourth time this time serving as the main event on the Fight Pass Invitational 10. During the preview we discussed all of the three previous matches that are taken place over the last five years and discuss the style of the match up with Victor's guard versus Rodriguez's passing. We discussed the late leg lock attempts that Rodriguez historically has thrown. We also talk about the changes in the dynamics of the match over the years with a move from longer and longer range passing from Nicky Rod. We talk about how the change of rule set may play into the matchup, resulting in a reliance on scoring points later in the potential for negatives to be awarded throughout the match for things like inactivity. We also give our picks for how we think the fourth iteration of this match will take place and how the result of the Craig Jones invitational may factor into how each camp goes into this matchup for the fourth time.Recorded 2-24-2025

Join Nick Lamagna on The A Game Podcast with our guest Patrick Precourt!  He is an investor, speaker, author, rugby player, fighter and educator out of Connecticut.  He went from a background as a builder and home inspector and found a catalyst to transform his life through real estate investing. He bought his first property at 25 years old and has done over 1000 transactions specializing in short sales and pre-foreclosures.  He has expanded into other asset classes and multiple strategies including a soft spot for boutique senior living spaces.  After finding a talent for teaching others how to follow his path of success he played a major role in building the successful education company Fortune Builders.  He made a decision to leave education and study human behavior where he specializes in helping entrepreneurs get unstuck and achieve previously mentally unattainable goals and turn their passion into dollars.  He opened his own martial arts academy and fitness center called The Cage where he tests and implements his knowledge of mindset and human behavior to parallel business and martial arts principles altering athletes behaviors.  He leads by example and even stepped in the cage himself competing in a mixed martial arts fighter!
