*NEW* I'm a 8-1 Amatuer Welterweight - 9 Videos

Postby OFL 170lb Champ » 27. Feb 2010, 20:28

My name is Blake 'Shot' Robbins, I am an Amatuer Welterweight here in Missouri. I train out of Branson Fight Club and am 7-1 (all wins by TKO or Armbar) currently holding the OFL Welterweight Championship belt. I thought I would post my videos to get input from you all. I started out with little training weighing 137lb's (I relied mainly on my wrestling background). I have started taking fighting more seriously for my last 3 fights and am up to 175lb's and training almost daily. You will see, I definately have holes in my game but I am working on them. My wrestling is pretty strong and so are my submissions. My stand up has been shakey but is steadily improving, I have since stopped throwing kicks (for now) because as you can see I'd just whip them out there with no technique. I've worked a ton on my boxing and only showed a little bit of it in my last fight but i've gotten to the point where I can hang with local pro's and ammy's it just comes down to the fight and I naturally go to what I know, wrestling.

Let me know what you all think, thanks!

(1st mma fight)

(2nd mma fight)

(3rd mma fight)

(4th mma fight)

I don't have a video of my 5th mma fight but I ended up taking the guy down quick and did some G n P from inside his guard and be locked up a quick armbar, he was 8-0 as an amatuer and trains at Roli Delgado's gym in Arkansas. After this fight I realized I needed to take fighting more seriously and really train before my fights.

(6th mma fight part 1)

(6th mma fight part2)

(7th mma fight)

(8th mma fight for the OFL Welterweight Championship)

My 8th fight was the first time I fought an accomplished wrestler, Austin wrestled at Missouri Valley which is a very competitive wrestling college. It was a good test for me and was glad I got the chance to fight him.

My next fight will now be for the Midwest Shofight Welterweight Belt in Branson, Missouri on April 24th. Check out the website for the event http://www.midwestshofight.com

(My 9th fight for the Number One Contenders spot in the ECF)

FYI the gameplan on this guy was a quick takedown because he has KO power and has knocked guys down before so you won't see any stand up (hes also known for having good wrestling and over powering his opponents). Zak Jones was undefeated with some wins over some tough opponents including a 5-1 fighter with his only loss to Zak.

Hey, I appreciate it, thanks for taking the time to watch the fights.

That is what I am hoping for, I definately will wait to go pro until I can prove my strike in at least one or two fights. I have good boxing in practice and we spar a ton, but like I said before its hard for me not to resort to wreslting in my fights.

So more than anything I want to prove to myself I can stand and strike if I need to, before I go pro.

Welcome to the forum dude!

Nice bunch of vids, didn't take long to watch them all. :wink: Here's my breakdown and feedback.....

= First fight against Hunter, straight in with the wrestling. Nice sweep after the failed double leg t/d. Swung the leg over for the mount from side control like it was second nature. Once you had the mount, it was all over. The majority of the shots however were hitting the arms of Hunter, I'm sure the adrenaline was pumpin n you just wanted to cave him in for the debut win. All you, good victory.

= Nice to see you start off looking to strike in your second fight. As you have already mentioned, your kicks need work. You had a tendancy to drop your guard whilst you threw your kicks also, but some of them landed so fair play. Looked like you then took him down by his toes. Lol. Again almost immediately into full mount from side control, you nearly had his back and you did well to keep the mount. You did really spotting and snatching the armbar as he tried to roll. Total dominance from the takedown onwards. Another good display of your ground game.

= Third bout and straight out with a succesfull takedown, then showing your flexibility as you both rotate and you pass his guard. Took you about ten seconds to mount him from side control. He didn't really work from there and it was yours for the taking. Like in your debut though, i'd advise picking your shots rather than raining down punches. To be fair to you though, he wasn't going anywhere, but against a better opponent with stronger ground defence you'll want to make every shot count. All you once again and a tidy tko win.

= Came out throwing some slightly wild kicks, technique on a right snap kick to the head was the best you've shown so far, but again you need to work on your guard whilst throwing your kicks. The size of the ring was clearly a nuisance..(cages from now anywya dude. :wink: )
From the ground clinch after the restart you showed really good flexibility to switch to side control and AGAIN almost straight away getting the mount before the restart was needed with you nearly goin out the ring. After the next restart 20 seconds later, you transitioned really smoothly to get the mount, stuck with it well as he rolled you off before gettin the position back, then swiftly pulling the arm bar. Maybe their team should have asked you JUST to strike.. Really dominant wrestling, note to be careful of chokes when you're in their guard, a stronger dude may have had you once or twice in that position.

= Against Rosa you backed up nicely away from his wild shots and droped to take him down by the ankles, I think you have a 100% takedown record so far. You showed great control again keeping him on his back.... then, what surely has to become your signature move, you pick him up and frog splash the twat.. quality move mate! :D You continued to dominate on the ground but I would have stood it up at a certain point when although you were both still working a bit, neither where getting an advantage or throwing many shots. The 1st round was yours 10-9.

(A second round :shock: :wink: ) Start of the second and Rosa looks to exchange with you. Not for the first time you circle to the left, this time getting caught, luckily the shot had nothing behind it. After going for the takedown you got yourself caught in a standing guillotine, it really looked deep at one bit. Down to the ground and he pins you in the corner, the ring becoming a problem as the restart is forced whilst Rosa goes for the guillotine again. From the restart again he starts to crank on the neck, he's clearly gassing as his gumshield hangs out of his mouth. his arms obviously tire as you pop your head up and look to posture up nicely. As you both roll, we get to see you work from your back for a change, you defend well giving him very little to work with. Nice attempt at a triangle just before the round ends.

3rd and AGAIN you circle left nearly putting your chin on the end of a straight jab, you dropped well though avoiding a shot and got the takedown. Controlled him nicely as you worked to side control with him facing the floor. Had he not control your left leg you would have easily been able to get an anaconda (maybe d'arce choke, i'm high and can't think which it is), but you stuck with him as he tried to escape, worming your way to the mount. Game over from there, he was clearly quite tired and his corner did right by throwin the towel in.

= Against Bayer yet again you came out, stepping to your left into your opponents shots. Again though you go stright back to the wrestling, get a hold of a leg and stay on him till you can roll him onto his back. Good choice to work him up against the cage, nice control as you work in through his guard into mount. You kept your head up well a you threw a few good punches. As he rolled and you grabbed his back, at first I thought you shouldn't have let him get to his feet and I thought the shoulder toss to sort of slam you would be in a bad position. How you worked into an armbar i don't know but what a finish. Very Fedor-esque to get the sub so soon after being slammed.

= Start of the first round for the OFL title and it becomes apparent that there is still alot of work needed on your jab. But you deserve lots of credit because although you don't look that natural with your striking yet, your wrestling has been so good against the competition you've faced it hardly mattered. Once you'd typically took him to the ground and controlled him up against the cage, you went about landing some cracking knees to the body, bringin them down from a right height... For nearly two minutes!!! It was hard at points to see if they were all landing but either way i'm sure he cursed you the next day. First round goes convincingly to Robbins.

Start of the second and you look your most comfortable on our feet that i've seen you. This time against a southpaw, I can give you credit for moving in the right direction. Lol. You snapped your jab out nicely, keepin your chin into your shoulder well. You moved well, avoiding his shots, before getting him against the cage, picking him up by both legs for a beautiful takedown. 30 seconds and your sat on top of him dropping bombs, showing a little more patience and composure than previously. Once he rolled onto his front it was the end for him and the ref stopped it before he took too much damage.

Right.. well there ya fuckin go dude! Overall.. you've got an excellent, ground game, have shit hot balance and have been on your bac for about 2 minutes in the 8 fights you've posted. I would seriously consider working on your strength and continue to put alot of effort into continuing to impove your boxing. Cheers for the footage and all the best for the future!!

I've just noticed how much i've typed... :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :mrgreen:

Lol thats awesome!!! Thanks for putting so much time into that. You wanna know something funny? We were pumped finding out he was a Southpaw! lol I was like ill actually be circling the right way! lol i just naturally do that and we have been working on that. The next guy im fighting is a heavy hitter so you will see me circle to the right this time!

We were a bit worried with my last fight since the kid was a college wrestler but it went well. And like i said i have gained 39 pounds in the last 2 years and am working to get up to 180-185 so i can cut to 170 and be a good size. And yes we will be putting plenty of time into my boxing.

You are totally right about me picking my shots! After that first fight im pretty sure i broke my right hand because for 2 n a half months it hurt. No joke during that Harrison fight where the guy had me in his guard for a bit then i mounted and finished him i was thinking in my head "man my hand hurts i hope this finishes soon..." lol

Thanks again, I appreciate it! (and i promise i have more sub's then just an armbar but thats just what i keep falling into, i love jitz and ive transitioned very easily from wrestilng to it)

nice analysis nix! robbins, ive known several wrestlers who have trouble adapting to the stand-up. im telling you this is 100% mental. i dont mean to brag or anything, because i am certainly nothing to brag about, but im fairly good at stand-up, ive beaten some guys (in sparring, mind you, i realize this is not the same) that i wasnt supposed to who were bigger, more technical, more experienced etc. the point is they had an advantage over me. i attribute this to my mental game, i literally wake up thinking about stand-up, and i stop to shadow box id estimate at least twenty times a day, whether im at the store or in the kitchen or about to go to bed or about to take a shower. i also visualize constantly. different ways to beat people up, i visualize this all the time. i try to make my stand-up really good because i am terrified of jiu jitsu guys, and i figure if i can just knock him out, then nothing to worry about. but i dont compete, so i feel funny giving you advice, but maybe this can work for you also. i think stand-up comes with a certain mentality that is not natural for a wrestler to have, they have to work at it. hopefully this advice is helpful to you.

Yeah I appreciate the advice and you are right alot of it is mental. I do really well sparring but I have to tell myself I can do it in the cage too. I'm getting there though, thanks again!

It took less than the time it took to smoke the joint I made so no worries what so ever dude! :mrgreen: Everyone has bad habits when they start out, but as long as you're aware of them and work to change them then all is good. Your ground game is really good, and if you're training BJJ, can't remember if you said in your OP, then I don't doubt having watched your fights that you have a nice arsenal of subs. You got anybody to work on your kicks with?

You seem to have a decent following at the title fight too!

I wonder why your opponents just ran at you quickly after the beginning of the first round. they were always very open for your take downs instead of creating distance after their first strikes, and couldnt offer much on their back then. I didnt really see any strikes to your rips or so. maybe they didnt know that your nickname is "shot" and didnt inform themselves about you and just wanted a quick TKO or KO.

Brilliant Post Nixon! The only thing I could possibly add is for Robbins to seriously work the standup. You are a great natural wrestler with some really nice transitions to submissions but I worry if you dont show some striking soon and step up in competion You'll have an experienced guy who will time the takedown attempt with a serious knee. Watching your videos I didn't see much in the way of trying to set them up and you do drop your head very low leaving yourself exposed to someone with more experience. If you'll just work on a good stiff jab you should be able to faint it then shoot greatly reducing the chance of eating a knee, uppercut, or getting caught in a guillotine choke. Best of luck to you in your MMA career :)

Its nice to see you took the time to post your fights, i apologise as i only watched fight 7 ( poor internet connection, so will watch rest tommorow, promise. ) From what i saw you looked pretty solid, like you say its not hard to see you are a strong wrestler.That fight you didnt really get to showcase any striking so cant say much on that but your transitions seemed to flow well, and the arm bar looked nice and tight. Looked good and i can honestly say looking forward to watching the rest of your fights. Also Congrats on your belt, gota feel pretty proud.

If i could trouble you for some advice, I am 21 and have never trained any combat sports, been following mma for prob about 5 years and since i started following it i have said i wanted to give it a go ( the training i mean and my goal would be to get a amatuer fight ). Now i am determined to give it a try, i have signed up to some mma work out at a local training center, my first session is this tuesday so im looking forward to geting a whoopin. I am from the uk and wrestling does not really exist over here, so i was wondering :
How would you go about training from scratch like i am ?
do you train individual martial arts or do you train out of one of these new mma schools? what do you think is best and why? I have so many questions......lol

I am taking it very seriously as i have been thinking about doing it for so long and am tired of bitching out like a little lazy bitch

O yeah Welcome to the forum and all that, cant be a bad thing having a champ on here, am or not :wink: Got to get some advice out of you :)

you can work on all 3 at the same time that's no problem as long as u have the right coaches at ur gym. At my gym we train BJJ, muay thai and wrestling. I predominantly just train BJJ and wrestling at the moment and rarely do any striking because im focusing on BJJ comps etc but eventually if i grow the balls to step in the cage i'll obviously have to work on striking. My trainer basicalyl says unless we're a VERY GOOD blue belt AT LEAST(BJJ), he wont even bother training us for the cage. The sport is evolving fast and unless u have some solid groundwork and subs ur just asking to get slaughtered. You can't afford to be one dimensional in a cage. You'll quickly realise what ur strengths are be it striking, subs, or takedowns. Your gameplan will focus on that but u still have to be good at everything.
And don't think MMA is something u can train a couple of months for and step into or even just train a couple times a week. If u ever think about competing it needs to be full time training months before a fight. Oh and one of the biggest things, conditioning. Very often, especially in amateur fights it comes down to conditioning and fitness. Just being able to keep throwing those punches in the 3rd round or having the energy to go for the takedown can = win. Just watch the Rolles Gracie fight haha.
