Eddie talks about why London was taken out of the 10th Planet system. There have been many requests by viewers about London and they didn't know what it was or why it was removed.

  • whats LA then??

  • There is no LA (only that Eddie is from there) Don't try to make sense of it all....;-)

  • I wonder if there are moves in the original BJJ that don't work but haven't been thrown out like this one?

  • I think it is about percentages rather than not working.

  • thanks for posting this video! it was driving me nuts not knowing what the london was or why it was dropped from the 10th planet system. haha but what is LA? i remember that you said new york came from eddie thinking that it was between LA and london. is LA another move or just a hypothetical position?

  • lol...LA was a hypothetical position (starting point...say mission control-move to new youk-then to London-chilldog)

    Get me drift? So LA is not (never was) a move in the RG system

  • Absolutely awesome. Eddie shows why he's the greatest mind in jiujitsu right now. He was wise enough to realize a move didn't work, and subsequently threw it out instead of insisting upon it's being able to work. Humility before pride always. I'd do anything to train with this guy.

  • I watched the whole video thinking "what? he isnt explaining why he doesnt have a gym in london, im confused!" It was only about 2 minutes after watching the video i realised 'London' was the name of a move and that Eddie wasn't actually talking about the place haha

see all

  • fighting a guy in 2 weeks that has finished alot if his fights using that position thanks for the tip , pedro sauer also says to stay with the knee and elbow attached dont let hips go unprotected keep ur elbows and knees together keep posture stay on feet w elbows and knees glued if he tries to pull armor hand to close for triangle or armbar drive your knee on top of his leg and pass guard. both ways work perfect for me!

  • Ive had back problems my entire life so im not flexible enough to do rubber guard but i know everything position. ive been using this set up to trap people i roll with shoulder to omoplata so on.. hope they dont see this haha

  • London seems alot like new school except instead of your right forearm on his right collarbone, your right forearm is on his left collarbone holding your gabel grip to setup the triangle.

  • i heard that eddie bravo made video tapes to sell.... i wonder if its true..... bcuz im INTRESTED..... hell if i cant be there i guess i just buy it...

  • I think that pass is a great attack from inside the SWG, but I don't think it makes the position obsolete.

  • Compared to pretty much any other martial art besides Boxing I'd say BJJ requires the least flexibility to start with.

  • Really? not so good? Have Shawn put you in it and see if you can get out.
