Telles is an amazing grappler but I don't get why he goes to his turtle guard off of everything... Totally not what BJJ was meant to be. It's almost like developing a bottom mount guard..
@poidog22 when you train with Leo Viera and Terere everyday like he did your guard gets smoked. That's what happened to him and he got tired of being smashed in side control. Hence turtle was developed. Everyone on his team learned the offense from turtle b/c they got tired of getting hit with sweeps, leglocks, and kimuras every time they touched him. Every1 who has every trained w/ telles uses this position. You can ask Andre Galvao and Cobrinha personally on twitter they trained w/ Telles.
The Gracie guys sticks to basic BJJ. Smash and pass, no fancy sweeps or fancy guards. Thats all they do. Although, Telles has a very very nasty turtle guard, but once again basic wins
