You know how sometimes GREAT grapplers make the transition to MMA and get their ass kicked, I cant help but wonder how many of us that do purely grappling would get our ass handed to us in a street fight. The two are just as different as MMA vs Grappling. I do strickly grappling and just can help but wonder what would would happen in a REAL fight.
Less than those that do nothing or just striking.
caughtya,
I'm an MMAer who grapples.
Most people on the street don't know shit. Most MMAer, strikers, or grapplers would kick the shit out of most people on the street.
if only some jiu jitsu practioners would travel around, challenging people to no-holds barred fights that would answer these questions. then they could put it on tape and sell it, maybe call it "Macy's In Action" or something?
This is why the UFC is ruining MMA. People on here thinking that Marcello was badly beaten in that fight and not just stopped because of an unfortunate cut.
There are probably people here who think round one was a draw and were booing their monitor screens every time the fight went to the ground.
That guy was even using techniques "too deadly" for the UFC, like eye gouging--an still got his ass beat.
AmericanJJ is a known troll and probably even a paid BJJ poster. Those video's look like works to me as any street fighter with a decent haymaker can beat any BJJ guy in real fight.
Good try though. How much do you get paid by the BJJ Federation for posting that?
I once got a guy in a RNC, got hit about 5 times to the back of the head by two of his friends after that.
Next time I will use my striking in a streetfight.
or you can put the choke on but next time put your back to a wall (or at the very least put the person being chocked between you and his friends.
"How much do you get paid by the BJJ Federation for posting that?"
Nothing, they called me their "frien".
......and all the Brazilian women I want!
I once took a guy down in a street fight and had the RNC sunk in tight until 7 or 8 of his friends came up and shot me in the back of the head.
I'm a 30 time Muay Thai champion who invented the country of Thailand and if I would have decided to use those skills instead of my BJJ I would have won that fight and knocked out all of those jerks down like they were domino's.
