The way he's throwing all this shade on grappling, you would think that such a thing may have happened to him a time or two:mjpls:
How many men that thought they could box have been scoop slammed by people who never stepped into a grappling gym in their life, and pounded into a :dwillhuh: expression. Many men, many many many many men. Its so demonic, friend. :sitdown:

And if you're a striker and you get taken down and submitted, broken or pounded into oblivion by someone who isnt a striker, what does that mean, friend? :ohhh:

I already stated....if you end up getting taken down (grappling) you made a mistake in your striking technique. Not to say it can't happen but it is preventable

Then why do so many fights end up with a clinch followed by someone falling on the ground friend? :dwillhuh:

A lot of things effect that type of thing. People try to clinch to avoid being struck further, it happens in striking too. But again, footwork...

What if you're in an enclosed space with nowhere to create range and they box you in? What you gonna do then with no grappling training?

I see. Well its obviously you need to train Brazillian Jiujitsu since currently, you're only training in typing.

Yep, it's just that simple huh:mjpls:

not really but neither is just "getting the takedown"

I just find BJJ's focus on fighting on your back unwavy. like at least wrasslers emphasize dominant position. with BJJ people gotta play your game a lil bit and fight you in your guard as opposed to standing up and stomping on your legs or something. it's big marketing push is it's supposed viability for street fighting but it's probably the least viable art in everyday situations. you need a number of favorable variables for just applying your art not even just winning.

Actually, modernized BJJ is less on the back and more so finding a dominant position nowadays. They've incorporated more elements of wrestling and judo, the whole fighting from the back thing is meant as a defensive last resort.

Proof you dont know what you're talknig about friend. Fighting off your back is something friends are equipped with if they HAVE to fight off their back. Jiujitsu is about getting a takedown, passing someones legs, mounting them meaning, sitting on their chest/stomach, and raining punches onto their face or choking them/breaking their arm/leg. People pulling guard in the street are not wise. People tripping/throwing/slamming someone on the ground and raining punches or breaking an ankle/arm/ using collar chokes, are wise friend. You just dont train and your ignorance on the art is causing you to just make troll like remarks, and thats unfortunate. But still, even if that man does go to his back and the opponent tries to stand over him to punch, there are a variety of trips at his disposal to turn the tide to continue using ofensive weapons. This fight game is deep.

Please begin training so you can be a true voice of reason. With no experience whatsoever in any kind of fighting, you can only speak from your imagination which is the opposite of reality, friend.

Its so bizarre how all the people that dont fight, believe the opposite when they hear reccomendations from peoplt that do.

Here is an example of someone who cant really strike dismantling a body builder. A man with 100 pounds on a 150 pound man. He uses power to overpower friend but here, the ability to fight off the back allows him to effectively finish him.

I trained BJJ for a few months 2 years ago before I was done with it, so assume what you want.

I never threw a single punch. learned hella useless submissions and a few passes and sweeps (the most useful shyt IMO). it wasn't a mma thing just regular gi/no-gi

To me, combined classes hinder your development in striking arts just in the way their set up at MMA gyms. MMA is filled with BJJ/Wrasslers with shytty striking so it makes sense. but we'll agree to disagree

How can you have an opinion on something you don't do.

Sounds like you get your ass kicked and was scared to bring your p*ssy ass back in that gym. Probably trained out the ymca and no official academy

Bad striking. Your striking is trash right now.

Actually friend you are shading me in a passive aggressive way and i get it. Alot of people who dont train in Anything share your thoughts so its hard to put the mind of a fighter in the mind of someone who is not. Your solution to being grabbed is to shoot someone which sounds problematic for freedom.

Grappling to me, is fun. I train striking as well and its fun, its just not as fun as Brazillian JIujitsu because BJJ is something you can do at full power and still not hurt anyone. Its something you can use against foes and not completely devastate them. Its something that allows you to lose weight extremely fast. Its great and its great to be a complete martial artist from standing to the ground.

If you can watch this and only think about men rollin around together from a homosexual point of view to me, you may have unresolved issues in your mind. Grappling is one of the first sports human beings ever engaged in. Not football, not basketball, not boxing, not karate. GRAPPLING, friend. Its humanity in its Purest form.



Now please sign up for BJJ TODAY friend.
