He's no better than a lot of other grappler's that i've seen. He's certainly not the best. But his attitude and the way he talks about fighters makes him a pussy. You don't talk shit about the way someone does something if you don't have the balls to do it yourself.
Look, mark laimon is a good coach and grappler. period. He keeps up to date and cares about his students getting better. Yes, he kinda has an abrasive attitude sometimes but most bjj black belts do. Sorry, thats happens alot. Anyway, he is a student of the game and gives his opinion and if you disagree, then disagree but don't throw stupid little insults at him. He is a grappler not an mma fighter and is a really good coach. I know from first hand experience.
The constant hate on Laimon is ridiculous. Many people are basing their opinion on a three minute clip on a reality show. I personally think that Laimon seems like a cool guy (albeit a bit outspoken), and even the haters watching this video have to agree, Laimon's is a damn good teacher.
Nice Nice Video. I really loved your video. Youtube can be a great asset for you. If you need any help getting your video exposed, check out this site called tubeviews [dot net] It has really done wonders for me, I have built 3 Channels up with videos at top in position and this is my forth channel i'm going to working on.
I don't really think laimon is a bitch, He just chooses not to fight. I'm assuming that's why your saying that. Some people are better coaches than they are fighters. I personally think mark would hold his own in a fight, he just chooses not to fight. Not everyone who chooses not to fight is a bitch it's just not their thing. Doesn't mean they can't fight though, so I wouldn't talk shit. I personally could care less about him but, that's just my opinion.
Yes, you should never put your hand on top of the head to prevent the hand fights, Marc says that in the beginning, but not really in the back of the neck, I guess depending on what feels comfortable to you and most effective. How I apply it is my hand is behind the head and my head blocking and resting on my own hand preventing the opponent from trying to grab my hand
Marc says to "put your chin on the opponents head to help push the neck forward, but I still prefer "slipping" in the choke to apply it and the ol' "sleeping" on my pressure hand for final submission.
Sorry, I had to actually apply the choke: if I'm using my right as my choke arm, I slip my left behind and across the opponents neck (as far as I can reach) and I rest my neck on my left hand (or wrist depending how big the neck, lol!). You are right, choke hand behind the neck but main pressure behind the head. Sorry. Aloha!
Yeah..we do that too but instead of putting my chin on the opponents head to help push the neck forward,we duck our head to prevent any punched landing to our faces while we place our forehead on our opponants head
