Profile of Jsubwrestler (65)

Feb 2020. Have been chatting wrestling and BJJ with this awesome guy for a few years now and have always hoped we would one day meet. This weekend that happened after a 29hr trip from Singapore for me and a 6 hour bus ride for Jsub.
I knew going in to this that he came highly recommended from past opponents and the wrestling community so I was going to have my game face on.
Instantly upon meeting F2F for the first time it was like we were old buddies. We wrestled sat afternoon again in the evening and once more on Sunday morning. I can honestly say this guy is one of my all times favs. On the mats this lean, solid, strong and handsome guy brings a match you don’t get everyday. Simply outstanding matches that I hope we will do again in the future.
Off the mats he’s a charming intelligent and easy going guy. If he is on a road trip your way then get your name on the list. You won’t be disappointed.

It was great to finally meet Mark_uk after chatting for a long time. He has a solid rep here so I was confident it would be a good meet, and he lived up to expectations in person. Really friendly guy as well as tough, strong and skilled, easy to hang out with and talk to as well. We went multiple rounds and had a great time. Despite a size difference he was also very safe and sane, controlled, and respectful about accommodating my knee injury. I found him to be well worth the wait and understand why he’s been so recommended on this site. I would look forward to meeting him again sometime and he definitely earns my highest recommendation to others as well.

wrecked me, the real deal, amazing :-) properly adjusted for stats, one of the best on this site, skill and especially strength. hope he gives me a shot at redemption. also, wicked clever, intelligent, everything… thanks.

Had a fun time meeting and wrestling this guy. He's very technical...better watch out, he has quite an arsenal of attacks from all sorts of positions. Also safe and fun, friendly off the mats too, recommended!

When it turned out that I’d be in his neck of the woods for work, Jsubwrestler made a match work on short notice. I had a great time rolling with him. I’ve wrestled guys twice his size who were half as tough. Not only does Jsubwrestler look great in a singlet, he’s also a skilled grappler with a lot of dexterity and endurance. Would wrestle him again for sure.

Had a fun time meeting and wrestling this guy, he's a big strong beast but also has impressive ability for being newer to the game. Can tell he has a strong interest in the sport and is quickly gaining significant experience and skill on the mats to soon be even more of a force. Also safe and friendly, was easy to set up a match with on short notice. Definitely recommended

Finally got a chance to meet this lean, muscled wrestling machine. Damn, what a great time! Jsub is so skilled and so fast that I found myself on my back without knowing how I got there! You better have a serious game plan when tangling with this stud because he will be steps ahead of you. Having said that, he knows how to adjust to your level so both guys have a good time. Doesn't hurt that he's also a great looking guy with abs you could grate cheese on! Thanks J. Hope we have another round soon!

It was a pleasure getting to lock up with this muscled beast–more like a bull, he's tough and relentless, has a ton of fight in him. And those nice thick muscles are more than show–guy is strong as hell so watch out if he gets a good hold on you. Also safe and respectful, a friendly guy off the mats and easy to communicate with. Definitely recommended and expect to meet again.

I had a great time working up a sweat with this skilled, athletic guy. Don't let his size fool you. Every time I thought I'd get at least side mount his legs would find their way in to block my moves. Rolling with this guy was the perfect combination of skill and fun. Aside from the match, it was a pleasure getting to know this quality guy as we conversed during and after the match. I'm looking forward to hosting him when he can make it to my mats in Minnesota!

I had the pleasure of meeting and wrestling AthleticDad while he was passing through. He’s a big strong guy, tough too and knows how to be aggressive while safe and controlled as well. He was fun to wrestle and I also enjoyed chatting with him as well—definitely an altogether positive experience meeting this guy so I gotta recommend, and I’d look forward to seeing and wrestling him again down the road.

Finally I was able to meet up with jsubwrestler after several years of contacting each other. Jsubwrestler is a very controlled wrestler who can take down a bigger guy with ease. I thought I was going to have the advantage over him since I was much bigger, but I was proven wrong. Jsubwrestler as an amazing body packed with muscle and you will feel it when you take him on. Great guy to chat with as well. Hopefully our paths will cross again in the future.

I was finally able to meet and lock up with this guy and had a great experience. I figured he'd be big and strong in person but wow, his pictures somehow don't do him justice, he's a veritable muscle beast with a very impressive build, enormous strength and was also fun and safe to wrestle too. In addition, outside of wrestling he's friendly and easy to communicate with as well. 26wrestler definitely earns my highest recommendation, and I'd look forward to wrestling him again. Meet him if you get the opportunity!

After a long history of talking about it, we finally got to have a go at each other. This guy is a machine! Technical, quick, much stronger than he looks. We were super competitive; who "da man" is is still unresolved and I'm looking forward to the next opportunity to figure it out! Be good at jiujitsu or be doomed, should you wrestle this guy.

EDIT: had an opportunity to roll with Jsub again recently; we are both coming off injuries, so it was super chill and light, but even rusty the guy is quick and technical and has great awareness on the mat. So much fun to roll with this guy!

EDIT: Got to roll with again at the recent TE meetup in Chicago; he claims rustiness but damned if he's not once again a bloody beast on the mat. We finally got to roll gi, which is his playground, and he pretty much handled me. LOL I got a bit of mine back in nogi, but if my math is right he's up by one. Looking forward to evening the score. 😉 Wrestle this guy!

Had the opportunity to roll a bit with this guy finally while we were both visiting NYC in August. Quite a handful on the mats, to say the least... watch out for his pressure game, once he's in tight good luck regaining the space! Technical, quite strong and especially the word 'tenacious' comes to mind...also really nice and chill friendly guy off the mats as well, making him a pleasure to meet all around and I look forward to next time.

Update: rolled with him several more times by now, still a beast! And actually getting tougher and stronger, clearly more skilled on the mats over time..so good luck to his future opponents too. Looking forward to more rolls–still recommended 👍🏻

hard to put into words how much fun I had with this guy !! cute skilled grappler whos just a pleasure to be around if he asks you to wrestle you should def say yes !

It was great to finally meet and roll with njmuscguy...he's fun and likes to be ornery and downplay his mat ability, but good luck handling this guy without having some serious weight and/or skill–you'll probably need both! Relentless bull on the mats but super friendly off them, jokes and laughs, easy to talk to, gracious host. Recommended!

Woooooooffff!! Jsubwrestler was a gracious host on my trip to New Mexico. We had a great time mixing in submission and oil wrestling in his mat room. I even managed to get in a tombstone piledriver!
Jsubwrestler is strong, scrappy, handsome and I can’t wait for a rematch!

Got to finally meet piledriverva while he was in the area for work, was fun getting to lock up…dude is a big strong beast, able to lift and carry me around with ease, has crazy crushing power once you’re wrapped up. He's knowledgeable with holds, aggressive but controlled, and we had some fun oil wrestling too. Fortunately he can also be a gentle giant and knows how to play safe with smaller guys, felt his power but still left in one piece by the end. Really friendly guy off the mats as well, would absolutely recommend and meet him again down the road

I was lucky enough to taken on Jsubwrestler on my way to Santa Fe, and man, was this time well spent! This guy is the perfect combination of skill, strength and stamina. We went at it hard for close to two hours, both wrestling, punching, and working on holds. His set up is absolutely perfect. If you want a tough match with someone who is strong, well built, tough and knows what he's doing hit him up. The guy is just plain fun!! Looking forward to locking up with him whenever I'm in the ABQ/Santa Fe area.

Got the chance to meet matjock while he was visiting NM, glad he stopped by. Very easy to communicate with and set up a match, friendly off the mats but aggressive competitor on them. Very strong, durable, likes to play rough but also fun and safe to take on, would recommend

Had a super fun time hanging out with jsubwrestler. We met at the TE May 2018 meet up in Denver. Got to do many rolls on the mats at several gyms with him.

He has great technique and is incredibly slippery.

Glad to have met him and looking forward to hanging out again soon

I felt fortunate to meet and roll multiple times with bjjguynyc in Denver. Highly advanced and technical grappler, sorta unassuming at first till you lock up and find him calmly and methodically thwarting your efforts and taking control...seems to always have the right answer or reaction to defend or improve his position. Wrestling with him was both fun and humbling in the best way, but a nice bonus was how much I enjoyed hanging and getting to spend time with him both on and off the mats. Easily earns my recommendation here and I look forward to seeing him again soon

I had the best luck in wrestling Jsubwrestler during my visit in New Mexico, he is awesome on the mats and overall one of the nicest guys I’ve ever met! On the mats he’s aggressive, technical and loves to work
Up a sweat. He has more experience than me so he got me in a few moves, but my strength and endurance kept him on his toes ;) he’s definitely one of the funnest guys I’ve wrestled. I also can’t emphasize enough how much of a great guy he is off the mats, he’s the best host ever, very kind and offers great conversation. 100% recommended!

Having met and wrestled Jsubwrestler during a recent trip to ABQ, I can definitely confirm all the positive comments made by his other opponents. J is a lean, fit, and strong wrestler with great technical skills and a guard that is almost impossible to pass (almost!). He is a gracious host and a great wrestler. Don't pass up the opportunity to wrestle him if you get the chance. He gets my highest recommendation and I can't wait for round 2!

Updated (9/2017):
J is the most genuine and reliable guy I've had the pleasure of meeting. He is kind yet cheeky with a reserved nature that belies his technical knowledge. He's one of my closest friends, making several trips to Chicago to share our mutual love of wrestling, nature, writing, and deep discussion. He is the ideal grappler for big vs small, using minimal effort to control guys 80+ lbs his weight.

On his most recent trip we had a competitive match with a few of my regulars. It was hilarious watching a guy bigger than me incapable of passing his guard and, in the rare instance I did, how effortlessly he reversed my superior position, and gained the upper hand. Huge smiles the whole time and no ego make him quite the fun combatant. His overall disposition makes him an even better person.

Initial Review (6/2616):
After years in the making we finally met up and got to wrestle. Since we both had injuries we opted for oil wrestling in white briefs which was just as hot as you could imagine. He is incredibly skilled in bjj, able to constantly use his technical knowledge to even the weight variance. We wrestled on and off with a friend for 1-2 hours, exhausting each other and rotating. I was very impressed as he is the first person to ever knock me out from a RNC (not deliberately, just executed it so quickly before I had time to tap). I got him back with some crushing submissions and overall the match went even better than either of us expected. Each were considerate of the other's injuries and neither ended up in a worse state from where we started. It was my first oil match and I'm definitely eager to do it again on his next return to the city. Great quality guy who is not only a great wrestler but very intelligent and considerate as well.

This guy was such a pleasure to meet. Although we both had injuries to consider on top of the size difference, I still felt comfortable throwing down with him. He proved to be as tough, fun, and safe as I was hoping as we wrestled in an oil match. He is a big man, but even so he is somehow even stronger than he looks–especially watch out for those legs! More importantly though, he knew how to properly balance competitive aggression with controlled restraint to make sure it was a hard-fought battle yet also an enjoyable and safe time for us both. He tops it all off with a great and personable attitude both on and off the mats. I have to wholeheartedly recommend him, and I greatly look forward to seeing him again and having a rematch soon.

J is a strong, skilled fighter and an amazing dude in general.
He's highly recommended. He can adjust his pace and skill level to meet up with yours– I'm not as skilled or trained as he is, and we were able to have several matches that lasted for almost an hour, and we both were very fulfilled afterwards. This guy is legit!

Dtwwrestler was a pleasure to meet and wrestle, he is overall newer to the game but has an awesome attitude and drive on the mats, is tough and scrappy, good opponent for a fun struggle for both bigger and smaller guys. The fact that he's cool, friendly, and fun to hang with off the mats too is a nice bonus, so it's a no-brainer recommendation to meet and roll with this guy if there's the opportunity.

JSubWrestler is a nice guy on the off the mats. If you want a good match and challenge, step on the mats with JSub. He is an amazing wrestler and don't let his size fool you. He can take giants like me down with a problem. Very well trained and awesome guy. Awesome match, highly recommended for a good match.

Pennsgroveguy31 is a beast with skills and experience, athleticism and flexibility to boot, so no matter your size and background be ready for a tough match, as this is a legit wrestler giant. Also happens to be very respectful and safe, knows how and when to use his weight in a controlled manner. Cool and friendly guy both on and off the mats as well, would definitely recommend this guy.

Just finished a intense battle with Jordan. I am so glad and honored I got to meet him and destroy those abs and PECS. Now he was injured so I was only going about 10 percent. Oh man did I really want to sink my fist and frog splashes in deep. Don't worry he got a very good sampling of my power and I got some of his. A wonderful gentlemen and a awesome attitude. I will be back for a rematch and may other matches, Albuquerque wrestlers let's do a tag team battle! I need a partner and so does Jordan... I am game studs😀 thank you to Jordan for help salvaging my holiday weekend from a long work week and short weekend for me. Rest that shoulder well buddy I am coming much much harder next time. Now that you know what is coming I know you can handle it. I do hope this is the start of a wonderful friendship. You are welcome at my home anytime​ and my mats are always ready for you Jordan and so am I!!!! Looking forward to our next match. Going absolutely smash you even harder than this time... Another so called heel bites the dust... Dominated ,pinned, beat, abs broken from punching and especially frog splashes. Can't wait for you to try and get your revenge for this beat down 😉😉😉

Was nice meeting and wrestling with commandertc while he was in town, and he seems keen to meet other ABQ wrestlers up to the challenge on future visits. Might seem a bit off-putting sometimes in text/online, but in person he’s safe and sane, friendly but goes hard on the mats. Todd knows his stuff there too, watch out for this guy’s big bag of diverse techniques at his disposal, and that goes for both sub and pro style moves. Considerate and safely accommodating of injuries and such too, but be ready for a rough tough match no matter what style. Good sport and fun attitude, would recommend.

Unassuming, slightly shy, introverted, but just wait till you try to get through his guard! When fighting Jake seems to have ten legs, and he knows how to use them! At 150lbs, he can take on and defeat guys much bigger. He has not defeated me, but I am sure our rematch will be a tough one, with its result far from certain.
In addition to the strong, lean, muscular body, this guy has plenty in his head and talking to him is a real pleasure. Emphasis on real, as he's equally allergic as I am to small talk.
Highly recommended!

This wrestler’s solid rep preceded him and I have to say it was backed up in person, he was tough and strong, and his experience made him a formidable but also safe and fun opponent. Nice guy off the mats as well, also communicative and easy to schedule with, accommodating—definitely a positive experience and an opponent I would recommend to others.

I was totally stoked to wrestle this guy as we just missed each other last time I visited. Super impressed that he drove an hour for a match to meet me in Santa Fe, so you know he's solid and stands up to his word. Speaking of solid, he's all muscle and very skilled, and I know he was taking it easy as he could have crushed many submissions out of me. Top it off he's really nice :-)

Got to meet this guy up in Santa Fe. He was easy to communicate with and set up the match, proved to be reliable as well as safe and fun in person too. Compact fighter who enjoys sub bouts and super friendly guy off the mats as well, has my recommendation.

Jordan is a great wrestler. Very strong ( incredible leg scissors) and fun to hang out with after the match. Guys you won't regret wrestling him.

What a great guy. Super cool on and off mats. Great sweaty workout. He is solid cut muscle, awesome physique and strong. So easy to work out the match times. He went out of his way to make sure we could meet up with the limited schedule I had stopping in Lincoln. Jsub is a must wrestle if you can. He is more than worth the trip. So glad I made it here and met up. I will definitely make the trip back out. Hopefully wrestle again soon.

Was happy to take him on while he visited. Great at communicating, easy to meet up with, reliable. Then big and strong and friendly in person, aggressive and safe on the mats. Fun to wrestle, would recommend and fight again.

Showed up on time, big and strong, aggressive but safe on the mats. Friendly guy, tough and fun to wrestle. Would take on again if given the opportunity.

Get in the car now and drive to Lincoln, NE to take this guy on. Though I had size on him, he definitely manhandled me with his BJJ skills. His body was incredibly hot - toned chest, meaty back, muscular arms, and defined abs. Great guy and great grappler.

It was a real pleasure to wrestle Jsub. He is very fit, skilled, safe and sane, with a beautiful fluid, controlled BJJ wrestling style. He's one of those guys you can learn from even if you have a lot of experience. He was unfailingly reliable, an all-round great guy on and off the mats, and the whole experience of meeting and wrestling him was extremely positive – he's someone I hope to wrestle many more times in the future.

I met jsubwrestler on a road trip in the Midwest and we had a really good fun match. He is very experienced due to his bjj class and he could show me some holds and locks. It was really cool to wrestle him and I tried to handle his strength as much as possible. We had a lot of fun and it was also nice to talk with him in German:) I would really like to see and wrestle him again!!! Thanks for the good time buddy;)

I was fortunate to meet judolover77 for a match while he was in the area during his travels. Setting up a meeting was easy as he proved to be communicative and reliable. He was great fun on the mats, still learning but very scrappy with good instincts. Being a really nice guy off the mats as well, he has my recommendation, and I wouldn't hesitate to meet him again.

Great communication before we met and a real gentleman in the flesh, arriving exactly as promised, we enjoyed a fantastic, hot gut punching session. JSub is in great shape with a solid chest and powerful biceps for solid punches. Very handsome, smart and engaging. Doubltess he's a very competent wrestler too - highly recommended.

Already lots of positive notes about this guy, which I'm happy to confirm–he was respectful, fun, safe, knowledgeable, and impressively durable. Whether you're a veteran or rookie at it, I definitely have to add my recommendation if you're looking for a fun GP session. Hit him (up).

Had a blast wrestling him. He is very skilled, def will meet him again.

Can't say enough good things here. Quality guy, strong, skilled, brings a solid game to the mats. Adapts well to guys at different skill levels. A pleasure to hang with both on and off the mats. If you meet, you better move fast - he's getting better every day :)

Was fortunate enough to finally meet and roll with him. He definitely lives up to his reputation. Awesome wrestler, great shape, impressive athlete, aggressive but friendly and fun as well. Really can't recommend him enough. Was a pleasing encounter, both on and off the mats, and I would jump at the chance to meet him again.

Without a doubt, Jsub is one of the best wrestlers I've met. He's a blast to roll with. He's technical, strong, and intelligent. He's also an easy guy to talk to and set up a match with. I can't recommend him enough.

quick, savvy, technical - Jsub is a lot of fun to wrestle. work up a sweat, roll for long submissions. make sure you get a match with him if can!

Glad I got to meet and wrestle this guy. Lots of fun on the mats, aggressive and impressively quick for his size. Extremely nice dude off the mats too, fun to just hang with. Definitely recommend him.

I had a great time wrestling him and would definitely recommend him.

This guy is an absolute wrestling beast, but he's also extremely nice, respectful, and just plain fun - an all around great guy and great wrestling experience.
