Note: In BJJ competition, that’s not the goal, and I’m confident Faith’s goal was simply for Mae Li to tap out. Mae Li fought out of that hold once already, so she tried again. Adrenaline during a match can mask pain, pressure and priority so she learned a valuable lesson for future competitions. Now she knows when she feels that much pressure… Even if she is not in pain, or if she feels 100% alert and able to keep fighting… That amount of pressure is indication to tap, no matter what. TTT -Tap early -Tap Often- -Train for life.
