Nick is excited for the opportunity to keep his momentum going when he competes at The BJJ Fanatics Grand Prix.

"I'm gonna be there playing my top game. Takedown, get on top, stay on top, pass the guard, take the back, then put people out. As many rear naked chokes as it takes to get to the final."

Nick will have to compete with Lucas "Hulk" Barbosa, Tex Johnson, Dante Leon, and others to win the $10,000 prize in Massachusetts.
