David Ayuso Interview

David Ayuso is a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu athlete that has made the transition from Judo into our crazy world of grappling.  We recently were able to catch up with him and get a quick word.  Check it out here:

Jitzilla:  What caused you to jump in and start training Jiu-Jitsu?

​Ayuso:  I used to train on and off Judo for at least 4 years in Puerto Rico.  After I moved from Puerto Rico, I was off the mats until I started training Judo in March of last year.  Judo isn't very popular in the area of Georgia I live, so I started going to BJJ open mats Introducing myself as a Judoka and trying to get people to train stand up with me.  Eventually, I wanted to get back to competing, however, there were barely any Judo tournament and I realized there were BJJ tournaments going on almost every weekend.
