    bjj small mat space ?

    You can drill some stuff on 2x2 as long as neither of you is huge, 3x3 is really the minimum for rolling IMO.

    Gordon Ryan Claims He’s Received ‘Seven-Figure Offers’ to Compete in MMA

    What would be the effect on his performance of having to pass even a one-time, in-competition drug test required by US commissions? He stopped competing at no-gi worlds the year they started testing.

    Not sure about that, you can see there's a bunch he doesn't know about the gi yet.

    Mighty Mouse competes for first time in gi, wins brown belt World's master division

    Such a cool video, love that guy. Also it should be straight up illegal to be that fast at any age let alone pushing 40.

    Question : Pro Grappling Match Pay

    IIRC there used to be a Rorion-endorsed tournament that had a US folkstyle type system of three periods where you started first one on the feet, then top and bottom of guard based on a coin flip. I thought that was a pretty interesting idea.

    What are the best ways to take down someone who's bigger than you?

    Low single is the most effective giant killer in terms of the actual finishing mechanics, it doesn't presume any real ability to move their bodyweight around. John Smith style with the head inside is probably the stronger takedown for pure grappling with less risk of ending up in bad positions...

    Freestyle wrestling without shooting for the legs?

    Less and less easy to shoot from range the further you get from 19, but there are great leg attacks that don't need it. Throw-by to a high single is a great complement to a underhook-y Judo game, for example, you would really be limiting yourself if you skipped that kind of move, IMO.

    Gable Stevenson

    It's "Steveson", not "Stevenson", no "n" in the middle.

    Is it possible to get better at wrestling without going to a gym or training with a partner?

    He meant to get in shape for someone who has already been wrestling his whole life, not to learn to shoot a sweep single.

    Travis Stephens vs Flavio Canto for the Olympic gold -- amazing match, action-packed

    They called ippon (match-winning score) for the throw; just delayed slightly because the referee didn't call it, but the two judges overruled him. Travis was tapping because he noticed and Flavio didn't, rather than because he was in a sub.

    Another fun example, one of the older extant trad jiu jitsu schools has a whole kata enumerating various murder attempts that might occur during serving tea

    Idori-waza in Judo's Kime-no-kata

    In Japan people used to (and to some extent still do) kneel on the floor in many social situations where Westerners would sit on chairs. For example, a drinking party

    Danaher No Gi Takedowns

    Subs don't make a huge difference to some wrestling games, but others they wreck completely. I used to wrestle freestyle with a guy who got most of his points by putting himelf in a crucifix

    Y'all reckon this is our old friend?

    I used to post on Bullsido with you back in the day and I 100% credit that site, despite its many glaring faults, with getting me into combat sports and making a substantial positive difference in my life. I'm genuinely sorry to see the obvious harm that you've suffered and I hope you can find a...

    Man injures opponent with flying scissor; Reddit thread discusses the idea of suing him

    There are a couple of famous cases from rugby, if that counts e.g. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.smh.com.au/sport/nrl/mccracken-wins-spear-tackle-damages-case-20050223-gdksd9.html

    Looking for UFC fighter who (should have) won the fight even spending 3rds on his back.

    Phil Cardella vs. Danny Castillo in the WEC, maybe?

    Cirkunov-Turman

    I thought maybe one of those elbows from the clinch fuzzed him up a bit more than was immediately apparent. His drive into closed guard had the slight air of looking for a spot to take a break.
