At 6:02 Andre should have known Rus was gonna go belly down. Most wrestlers switch to that position anytime they are in danger of getting their guard passed.
The funny part about the whole thing is that Rustam has been practicing wrestling (no submissions) his whole life while Andre has been practicing submission grappling his whole life but Rustam only recently began practicing submission using Sambo and Jiu-Jitsu (he's been doing it for a 2-3 years now). Imagine Rustam after 5-7 years of more Sambo & Jiu-Jitsu training? He will dominate ALL of the grapplers in ANY division.
its a grappling match rustam didnt pass at all or go for any subs galvao had many subs locked in so in a GRAPPLING match he would win and i think they made the right choice
@The23YoUnGHuStLA73 No what you listed i.e. guard passing is a bjj match not grappling, galvao in a grappling match should be penalised for not engaging in takedowns and just buttscooting.
Since when has sitting on your butt win you a tournament? Rustam had takedowns in the first video that didn't score him points. Plus almost submissions and almost sweeps shouldn't count for anything. Rustam ALMOST passed the guard many many many times. Should that count for anything? Stop being BJJ nuthuggers.
@JGroomsMMA attempts for submissions and sweeps count for advantages. aggressiveness doesnt work in the sport of jiujitsu. if you're thinking mma, thats a total different sport.
@JGroomsMMA That's not a wrestling tournament either. Chsiev didn't put Andre on his back on the first video, so the one you are talking about shouldn't count as a takedown. And anyway Andre came on top at around 5:35 , in my book that one is a sweep even if Rustam gave up the position on his own will... also I don't understand why in your opinion almost passing guard should be rewarded and almost sweeping or submitting, not. Galvao won, get over it.
@Madmac79 So if Galvao sits down is that giving up the takedown out of his own will? I'm not saying that Rustam should have won.. I'm just saying that Galvao shouldn't have. What did he do that constituted a win? When you sit down you take away virtually all of your opponents chances for subs. I don't think having a hard to pass guard should equal a win.
@JGroomsMMA What do we think is irrelevant, if the rules of the tournament (which I still can't find neither on the official site) allows butt scooting without losing points, then Galvao rightly won. And anyway I don't get why by sitting down you "take away virtually all of your opponents chances for sub"... that's simply not true. If your opponent is looking for the td like Rustam, then Andre by pulling guard simply made half the work for him...it's not like he's stalling or such.
@Madmac79 I believe the rules were no advantages. When you sit down you do take away almost all of the top guys chances for subs. If the guy on bottom has a hard to pass guard then he'll almost win every time if the rules are set up that way. Neither guy got the best of each other. Should have been a draw. Galvao couldn't submit or sweep.
I think it was a good call, if you watch the first two parts the commentator clearly states "there are no advantage points submission is the mission" and andre clearly went for more submissions throughout the whole match
@chunkay1713 Exactly. This isn't mma which is scored by idiot boxing judges who give points to someone stalling on top. It is a grappling tournament and Galvao threw more sweep and sub attempts.
@NoSVitaminC dude are u blind? yea Rustam was the agressor but it dont mean he was winning. Andre went for multiple sub attempts and sweeps. idk what u were watching
I think the ref said that the win came from "aggressiveness". Yeah, I call BS. They should have just called it was it was -- a draw -- and split money evenly.
they should of called it a draw and split the prize money
