Karate Team vs Gracie Jiu Jitsu Team - No Holds Barred!

Gracie Jiu Jitsu team takes on a top Brazilian Karate Team! NOTICE the First match, it is between a 13 year old CHILD against an ADULT Karate Black Belt, the 13 year old DOMINATES the adult Karate Black Belt due to his Gracie Jiu Jitsu Training! That is a perfect example of how effective Gracie Jiu Jitsu truly is, ANYONE can perform the techniques and defeat MUCH larger opponents.. Just as Royce Gracie PROVED over 15 years ago in the very first Ultimate Fighting Championships.

Train Gracie Jiu Jitsu! It could save your life, especially now that the UFC is mainstream and more and more people know about ground fighting and are taking fights to the ground on purpose! Even the Bar Room Brawlers where I bounced at are Grappling! Though sloppily, but it's still enough to take a Pure Stand Up(Karate, Kung Fu, Tae Kwon Do) fighter down and hurt them! You already have gravity working against you as it is...and if you don't know Jiu Jitsu then you are at a serious Disadvantage...

Any martial artist alive would advise you to not get involved in a street fight. We don't train our asses off to go pick fights with some chump on the street. In fact, it's the exact opposite. Not to mention, a real fighter has no reason to fight on the street. There isn't really a challenge there. Someone with 6 months or more solid MMA/BJJ training could beat just about anyone on the street 1v1. So fighting some bum off the street is nothing impressive. Street Fight reserved for "if I HAVE to"

I can't even begin to describe how inaccurate this post is. "On the street, BJJ is only good for getting up OFF the ground" LOL.... You know NOTHING about BJJ or fighting in general. Again, if I had to choose only one style, I'd want the one that could end the fight the quickest. BJJ would be it. Environment, potential attackers, weapons all make ANYONE at a disadvantage. I'd rather know what I'm doing, and have the ability to end someone within seconds, than waste my time with something else

I weren't imposing that you were wrong, just trying to make a point in order to further enhance your arguments for why to not fight in the streets. I've trained with to many people thinking that they can beat anyone on the street disregarding the risk that their opponent might have superior training.

We might have slightly different definitions of a street fight, mine is a fight in the streets between two strangers. But i get your definition of a streetfighter aswell.

[donnycage]

There's plenty of reasons not to fight on the street. I didn't say someone with 6 months of training wouldn't meet any challenge... I said he could beat *just about* anyone on the street 1v1. I was referring to your average street fighter. Obviously, if we are talking about another *trained* fighter with more experience, then that person would be one of the few exceptions... But then we aren't talking about a street fighter, per se.. We are then talking about two trained fighters.

[Karashinkun]

I agree with you on the point that no serious martial artist goes out on the street looking for fights. But saying that anyone with 6 months of experience wouldn't meet any challenge in the streets is completly of the hook. In the street you don't know anything about your opponent. You might aswell end up fighting someone who's got more than 10 years of experience. The best reason to not fight in the streets is that no matter how good you are, there is always someone better.

This isn't the movies. If you are fighting more than one person you are going to be at a disadvantage regardless of what you know. But If I could only choose one style for the street, i'd choose the style that has been proven time and time and time again (even against bigger opponents). I'd want to end the fight within seconds, rather than trying to fight my way through a long drawn out battle. I'd never suggest only learning one style, but BJJ has proven to be the most effective.

All I've seen of Ju Jitsu is they go straight to the ground pretty much, when they beat other martial arts it's on the ground. Yes most fights go to the ground but as I said if you're fighting more than one guy better to keep your distance and stay on your feet. Better to fight on the gap. For fighting on the gap I doubt Ju Jitsu is a good style.

[donnycage]

If you think a BJJ expert is going to be "rolling around on the floor" with some chump on the street, you know very little about how effective BJJ actually is. For one thing, he can end the fight, literally within seconds, and it doesn't even have to go to the ground... But if it did, the fight would end even faster. Furthermore, in a street fight it's better to know what you are doing in a clinch rather than not, considering most fights end up tied up and usually go to the ground anyway.

[ezromation]

Anything that means you're rolling around on the floor is putting you at a massive disadvantage in a street fight. When you're on the floor others can kick you and hit you. There's not much you can do about it if your all tangled up with one guy and another guy decides to stick the boot in. If you're on your feet you have a better chance, pretty obvious stuff. Ju Jitsu is great 1v1 but a street fight is mostly a bunch of idiots not just one.

[Kinos141]

I agree with your, but you forget the other reason not to fight on he street: hidden weapons. Every fool has one, and will use it in a heated, desperate moment. If one has to, they should do so quickly, and get out of there.

[donnycage]

It all just depends on what you are training for. Certain moves are illegal in certain tournaments, but highly effective in a real fight (and in MMA). Take the heel hook for instance. One of the most damaging moves in martial arts (can cause irreversible damage to the knee). It's taught in BJJ, but only allowed in certain tournaments, and certain levels. But just because some tournaments outlaw it for safety doesn't make the move itself disappear. We just abide by the rules when we have to.

[donnycage]

I'm not saying that someone will become Anderson Silva in 6 months... But you'd be surprised at how effective 6 months of solid MMA/BJJ training will do. And by the way, if a weapon is involved, no matter what you are at a disadvantage. The person that knows what he's doing (ie the MMA/BJJ fighter) will be miles ahead of someone else that doesn't.
