Josh Barnett Grappling

[puffykilled2pac]

Catch wrestling and leg locks WAYYYY underused in MMA

[yoshiofdeath]

My Number TWO favorite randori/rolling/sparring/grapp­ling training sessions: Barnett (my number ONE favorite is Sakuraba's grappling session; my number THREE favorite is Fujiwara Tamco grappling session).

[Wes919]

Karelin lift FTW!

[TyVoltage88]

Queens of The Stone Age playing in the background. Much more props to them

[Touchmyboner1]

Whats that sub called starting at 05:05 ??

[b7r7u7c7e]

@Touchmyboner1 That was an inverted side choke. Ive seen it done alot in combat wrestling(catch wrestling)in japan. Just look up combat wrestling.

[mufc786hm]

Josh was toying with this guy, props for pulling out the Karelin slam.

[shay33ish]

Josh Barnett is no joke-he is the real deal! 

[mmabbr]

What is the name of the takedown he does at 0:13 ?

[Electronic91Videos]

@mmabbr

An ArmDrag?

[jimmicrackhead12]

Barnett like won adcc open weight bjj comp and gracie nationals as well, last year 09 I tihnk. They were like we cant let a catch wrestler win the bjj championships, but haha he did

[AverageAsianMe]

Was that Shayna Baszler?

[SuperEzekial19]

Barnett is an absolute beast if he fights Fedor in very good physical conditition he'd win, no doubt.

[billysue2]

@SuperEzekial19 hard to kinow if fedor i till the same fighter he was a few years ago but I doubt josh could either strike with him or take him down

[jayst5]

lol jammie looks tiny rollin with josh!!!!

[bassreeves1965]

big guys like banett and myself, may know lots of holds to keep from being put in them, but our power lies in overpowering and striking.This is true even for feodor.

[SuperSneakySteve]

He's very technical for a big guy. But I think he's much bigger than that poor sparring partner he's with.

[BushidoCode72]

Nice match

[littlegator01]

Josh won at World's by referee decision

[NinjaKPhoto]

I'm interested in seeing how he'll do this weekend at the Nogi Worlds. The IBJJF rules kinda negate all of his attacks.

[billysue2]

won his weight division v bruno paulista ,last years world champ.Also did very well against romulo barral in the gi recently,romulo couldnt do much with him but got the nod on decision.

[drseth00789]

how so?

[tgtennis]

It was a pretty close match and it looked like the judges were going to give it to Josh, but then they were reminded that the ref failed to deduct a point from Josh, who had gone for an illegal submission (heel hook possibly)

The video is up on youtube and one commenter, a student of Barral who can be seen in the video, explains the whole thing.

[RasAlGhul4000]

What's the song playing? Isn't 6s and 7s like it says

[bad13mens]

firsteth giveth? by queens of the stoneage

[LLMelvinL]

Queens of the stone age first giveth.

[lehapankov]

josh is really good. if this stupido didn't eat roids, we would see a good fight with Fedor

[Mannypacquia0]

yeah.. but now we will never know unless him and fedor fight in japan for strikeforce/dream

[ktc3firstnames]

He's not flawless, but he has a better chance against fedor than what most people are giving him. Even though I like fedor I always root for the underdog. Let's go Barnett! He's been in the game way too long to not get any recognition... August 1 Thats whats up

[WarriorBlackBanner]

i agree, i think he does have a good chance, but we will see.

[kempobrad]

ufc heavyweight champ isn't recognition?

[RombodellaGiungla]

@ktc3firstnames nothing posible vs fedor!

[michaeldcampion]

holy f'in endurance....

[1scayaban]

thats me watching in ahhh!!! Josh is a fucking killer

[staff72]

Josh is a Beast. All of you will see this when he fights Fedor....

[IDEVILPRINCEI]

Jamie Fletcher.

[SifuEli]

I wonder who is his training partner?

[ElManimal]

Barnett + queens of the stone age (playing in the background, durr) = <3

Definitely my favourite HW, love his aggressive catch wrestling style.

[armbar5000]

Shit, that leg lock flow at the end was nuts!

[hedges1]

whats the name of the 1st song playin in the background?

[lich100500]

queens of the stone age - first it giveth

[bmxpunker2005]

Great wrestling Josh!!!

[salboski]

Love Barnett's grappling style.

[j0e14]

its so...new age

modernized

using agressive freestyle wrestling to ware down opponents and finishing with bjj and catch

[jonnytsunami]

that was 10 minutes of awesome right there

[Teabonesteak]

Straight out of Alexander Karelin's playbook at 3:23! OH YEEEEAH!

[undisputedgreatest]

What a sweet young lady that...lady must be. Apologizing so sincerely for stepping infront of the camera.

Josh Barnett is a monster. It pisses me off to see Lesnar with the belt. Let Josh fight him...see how long that lasts. I want to see Barnett fight Fedor, and Minotauro for their rubber match. Those fights will determine who the best in the world is.

[killerdugong]

its refreshing to see wrestling like this.

[MauriceSometimes]

You said it, man.

[laird86]

Josh is budo-kami
