@maxsteelee ok this isn't mma... submission wrestling/ jiu jitsu is totally different

[IzReticuli]

Muzio is the best referee ever... I prefer have a good guard like Bruno, that this desesperated atemp of pass...

Rules are the rules... I saw one or two advantage from Josh and just one from Bruno... One a gain, i prefer have a goog guard like this.

@maxsteelee agreed josh would have owned him in a mma match cuz he would pound the crap outta him in his guard.

@Snoochy2006 its not even,top is king in mma,its far easier to defend subs with posture and strike than it is to sub from guard which is hardly ever seen in elite mma anymore

[maxsteelee]

@Snoochy2006 if this was MMA, barnett would have won due to top position, and he could land more strikes, couldve opened this guy up. he couldnt get any submissions on barnett. if you think guard is perfectly even in MMA against someone near your skill level, then you havent done any matches or sparred mma. you get your face and torso beat on if a good striker and grappler is in your guard

[maxsteelee]

@918Anon i guess youre right. i was thinking more of the mma/whos on top. but this is grappling

[918Anon]

@maxsteelee Guard is a neutral position. Bruno was more aggressive.

[maxsteelee]

@s121202 umm no, guard isnt a more dominant position, josh is clearly more in control

[JumpDiffusion]

Josh!!

[s121202]

Man josh couldn't even pass your guard? screw the point system, U should've gotten the nod
