"Looka nice in practice, but against someone with a good base it won't work"

lol why do guys say that all the time...thats like someone showing a triangle and you saying..."Ha ...that looks good in practice..but against someone with good posture that wont work" Every move can be blocked and every move is used WHEN the guy makes a mistake and doesn't have good base, posture, grip etc. Of course it wont work everytime...but one time it will.

you must put and press your head on the chest !

@Cadeell Yea I was going to say that this looked like a helicopter, if he just avoided putting him down at all.

[bilbaisim]

i dont this would actually work .. the throwing him up in the air part .. but who said im not gona try it

[Bjjfighter1982]

nice

[Cadeell]

maybe you could even go to a helicopter arm bar. would be a bit more faster,

[Donpaeng]

LOL nice rhyme

[PadLockum]

ME?I never tap!

I could sit in your arm bar and feel fine, Carbon Steel Spine, passing through your guard like its a yield sign :)

Just kiddin..yes, I understand what you are saying...it is definitely and opportunistic move.

wasn't talking about this "rabit hole" journey. was talking about the seamlessly continuously redundant "catch phrases" starting to go to a spiral twirl into a vividly grassy trail leading back in the starting line.

and yes the paragraph on top is too make a point for utter redundancy becoming into non-sense

but anyway wasn't trashing it. i just pointed out some points to improve on. it's just way too easy too push that one knee out.,right? do you see yourself tapping out from this?

[PadLockum]

lol your the one that initiated this little journey, and I can follow you as far down the rabbit hole as you want to go.

The point is, if it "Probably will work" then whats the point on thrashing it. There are high percentage moves and low percentage moves...its good to have both. Whats the point in trashing it? That's all I'm saying.

"The flaw is that they must be executed"??

seriously man, you might wanna bring it down a notch. i mean it does make sense but if you really think about it. its a little too much.

all im trying to say is that in this situation it's the technique it self that has flaws, in the setup and in the the finish. which will make it easy to defend and harder to do in live application (don't get me wrong it will probably work)

whether you agree with me or not is entirely up to you. peace out.

[PadLockum]

The flaw is that they must be executed...and since they must be executed their will be flaws. There is a weak point in every execution and if you opponent is able to capitalize on these weak moments with stronger defense or counter movements...he will win.

Roger is actually an example for me as well...He gets into those positions with this philosophy....he wins because he understands this better than his opponents. In fact, he is one of the ones I learned this philosophy from.
