[kornxplod]

[pavethepeaks]

this vid has got to be old because tim and brandon have a lot of tattoos that aren't in the vid

[G0DSMACK2727]

thiago is afraid to go toe to toe with this guy. thiago a big guy with a big tatoo with a small heart.

[destroyer919]

@G0DSMACK2727 dont hate just cause your boys outta the ufc

[wooimcool25]

Why is Tim Carpenter doing that jump butt scoot thing in the beginning?

[daridp]

@wooimcool25 He was trying to pull guard from a standing position.

[tojiro12]

i think this is from when he was still a wrestler, but I may be wrong.

[VAktmracer]

vera definitely doesn't get credit for this one, he's actually a decent grappler and an even better fighter

[kapitbahayTV]

no alibata on his back.this is old

[chahlie24]

TIm where are your grappling shorts?

[doctorsizzle]

MAN...the teams should be quiet and let the fighters think for themselves.

better for the fighters...when you tell your guy what to do the other fighter gets a heads-up on what not to do!

i hate it...

[666TheStig]

i agree, but they do provide useful information and advice. They have a better view of the fight that the fighter does. And they are usually very qualified themselves

[bjjartist]

Im speaking from exprience a good corner is essential to competitive success. They see detials you cant with your adrenaline going through the roof. Keeping your in the middle prevents and/or deters triangles and armbars and prevents sweeps during your guard pass Lloyd wanted to make sure Brandon forget that because he was so focused on actually completing the pass. A-1 and A-2 are just as important as A when going from A to B. Thats what your coach is for, the small stuff.

[doctorsizzle]

hello, great points...but what happens when you meet a person that is on his game without the corner...you're in trouble. trust me...i'm speaking from experience as well. i've faced a few seasoned practitioners as a beginner...and well suprisingly got out on them. a fighter/practitioner that can grasp the game, visualize the possible outcomes, and get creative...will always outwit a player that depends on the corner. when it's you and the other...without a corner...then what?

[bjjartist]

Thats why you have to well-conditioned and on your game too. Because it becomes a game of mental breakage and the one who breaks first loses. And I cant tell you how many time my corner kept me going when I was physically done. Its not about depending on the corner they cant fight for you they're just motivaters and an extra set of eyes. I understand exactly what you're saying though very valid point.

[abomousa8128215]

@bjjartist i agree 100%

[daz45]

i understand what your saying but you should be allowed to shout instructions, but i hate it when people on the side shout stupid shit, just watch bill the grill cooper vs bruno bastos part 6 no gi here on youtube, its sooooo annoying, i remeber a guy shouted at me from my opponents corner to attack from the top, shouting "stop stalling", just because i was up on points and he wanted me to rush, i told him to fuck off, passed the guard, then hit a far side kimura, i thanked him for the advice :D

[DontAskForHotsauce]

Wow. your ego is showing.

[daz45]

nothing wrong with recollection, i could have took the high road but guys like that who act like utter dicks from the side need to be put into check, maybe i was being a dick as well, but in the end there is one less asshole yelling from the outside.

[DontAskForHotsauce]

who's yelling? i was just letting you know that you sound extremely cocky. if your beyond everyone elses level then show it on the mat. not on the internet.

[daz45]

The guy on the outside talking shit, not you, i'm talking about the vid, if a guy is talking shit from the opponents corner there is nothing wrong with putting him in his place end of.

[nizepart0519]

Its obvious that you've never competed before.

[knowskill5]

obviously you don't fight

[daz45]

yeah because no-one ever talks shit in any form of fighting...

[iamthegame06]

@doctorsizzle wtf? LOL this made my day...

[martinlacay]

wheres brandon vera's alibata tatoo on his back?

[dklee04]

this was a long time ago.. this was when he just started with Lloyd I believe

[AugustKamppur]

Ya, I don't see the tattoos on his legs either.... makes you wonder if this footage isn't old?

[TTyger]

Brandon Vera is a badass

[submissionsoldier]

TEAM LLOYD IRVIN!!!!!
