I remember Eddie bravo having a conversation with Rickson about the third option of pulling guard. He wanted to help Kron out with his mma guard he developed. He basically recall one match were the jiu jitsu guy couldn't takedown his opponent or strike with him. So he jumped guard and the guy...

Nice video goatfurey Have you tried the step Renner shows of slapping the mat with his foot. I find it very helpful Here is the video

The progression is true in any form. It is self evident in Rickson himself who changed the guard when dealing with strikes. Rickson himself thought the guard was outdated when it came to dealing with strikes. He talks about it on the Joe Rogan podcast.

But that is Robert's point. Your saying that it was created by perfect masters as if the art cannot go further then these people. Robert points out that it is arrogant to think the progression of any sport/self defence art stops at any one individual.

Robert Drysdale had a interesting take on the subject. He said that Rickson could not win in the purple belt division today and that wasn't anything bad about Rickson but it a compliment to the sport today and how it has evolved. He also stated that if he took a time machine into the future in...

Ok thanks you Waldorf.

How does the brackets work? I was looking at one division and it had two brackets of 12. Is there two gold medals for that division or do they take the top two from both brackets and those 4 go for gold.

Jordan1997 I am curious about your light sparring at you old school. My understanding is after the combatives course you are allowed to roll. Even though Ryron likes to keep it playful he also said to roll serious too that why he had that coin. Flip it one way roll playfully flip another roll...

You asked is it a big deal that a blue belt gets smoked by a white belt? Yes it is to that blue belt. Should we be mentality strong enough to handle any adversity. Yes of course but reality is it does bother most people. You get most bjj people ok with losing to lower belts and I be ok with...

I am the same way. I think people like us just have no interest in techniques that are only sport oriented. My only advise is to be patient with your instructor when he shows the fancy stuff because it's hard to keep students interested if you teach the same basic over and over again ( and he...

Just don't buy into the no ego myth. I done bjj long enough to know ego exist. To me people expect the guy that should win to not get upset if he loses to a lesser guy but it's ok for lesser guy to brag if he wins. It doesn't make sense to me. If we as a bjj community stop making a big deal of a...

Sorry I really don't understand what your saying. It seems your saying that you and your coach played it off like it's no big deal so we should see it that way. But ask yourself how did the blue belts feel losing to the white belt? I bet any money those blue belts ask your white belt a bunch of...

Yes awesome

That's awesome to hear about Royce. As you can tell I am a fan of the Gracie family. Thanks for sharing.

Awesome job Ayrshire Grappler can you do one with Royler vs Mario Sperry. Like to see that broken down.

Do you mean blue belts at the time gave a Royce a tough go? That's crazy to me. So you trained at the Academy while Royce taught there? Would love to hear how it was to like learn from him.

Too old? Let me tell you a secret about us bjj guys. We don't care how old you are as long as your a decent person in the school we will welcome you with open arms. We will not look at you as someone that's in the way even if you have a hard time keeping up. We are just a bunch of dudes doing...

Robocok you say your only a white belt but admit to training mma. Anyone with common sense would think if a white belt is willing to throw down at the drop of a hat to fight he must have other skills. I am guessing you do very well in your mma training against your training partners to have this...

I hear what your saying yetanother. I always wondered if that softer approach you mention came from Helio. I read back in the day Helio use the approach that students rather do the technique than the technique being done on them. It made the student feel good about himself. Wish I remembered...
