@FamousFallenAngel1 Wrestlers are grapplers. I love both bjj and wrestling, do both. Wrestled on varsity throughout high school, club team in college, got my blue belt in bjj recently from MMAA. They both offer very distinct skills and attributes to a fight and saying one guy can beat the shit out of another is ignorant as well. Guys who came from decorated wrestling and guys that came from decorated jiu-jitsu backgrounds both fair extremely well in mixed martial arts.

BJJ is best system ever.

@ThisIsanEffinHassle kinda pathetic that the guy being guillotined didn't know the counter

@ezzedine114 you never cross your feet like that. its an easy submission for the other guy.

Damn! The one dude in the beginning was cranking that guillotine forever, before he got the tap.

How would you describe Grappling ?

@Shadow2271 i totally agree ! i believe that a good combination between thoose to is the best.

[Shadow2271]

Wrestling and BJJ is both grappling. I like to look at is as two different styles of grappling, one that concentrates on Leverage to submit, other to gain position to maintain a good position. Neither is better than the other, they are just two different styles.

@Voodoofreak35

I have seen even more BJJ players choke Judokas. Judokas in the US tend to have poor ground skills; I was tappin out Blue and Brown when I was still a BJJ 3 stripe White Belt. They Judokas were good, they just lacked enough mat time on their backs and in guards. That being said, the sport of Judo doesn't usually allow for much down time on a mat. Otherwise it would be called Jiu Jitsu I suppose.

@ezzedine114 Figure 4 is acceptable with back control, but locking whilst in hook position is unwise.



[ezzedine114]

i was teatched ,that it is a great mistake to cross your feet while having the back of a grounded opponent ;; because it open a submission possibility for him ,, even thoo i see 3 of thoses figther doing it ,, so can someone tell me what is the correct opinion ?
