nogidavid -I apologize then.Josh Mancuso -nogidavid -As far as I know I'm the first to hear it in a rules seminar straight from the source.
this already broke a month ago but no one believed us cause it's so dumb
nope. new rules were covered a month ago before the euros
Hopefully those dangerous chokes are removed soon as well.
delicious bass - It's just illegal for blue and purple right? And isn't it only positions trying to bury their head into the mat with head on outside in a dynamic way? Curious.Paul, blue and up will be DQ'ed. Juvenile and white will be reset in a neutral position.
For the love of God, could someone create an alternate to the ibjjf!
Good Mooning.
Thanks for contacting IBJJF.
We have no changes yet. We will publish all changes together in few weeks. Please, keep checking our website or facebook page.
Best Regards,
IBJJF Staff.
I remember a few years ago Megaton talking about a few guys who broke their necks getting spiked from a head-outside sumi-gaeshi used to counter a single leg. I wonder if there were more serious injuries and they finally decided to make a rule change.
All complains aside, sport BJJ still isn't crippled by rules as much as judo. Yet.
WARRIOR POET -Do you enjoy strawmanning?MIKE CIESNOLEVICZ - I stopped considering these tournaments legitimate a long time ago. They aren't even jiu jitsu anymore. What a joke.
do you still consider mma to be mma? with all these rules and time limits and shit?
nogidavid -Yea the whole thing is crazy, I think a better solution is to make a head outside single illegal, but I'm just reporting the rules that I have been told will 100% be introduced this year.Josh Mancuso -delicious bass - It's just illegal for blue and purple right?

to me that seems backwards, if you follow the IBJJF's logic through it's the whitebelts who need to be dq'd as they're more likely to injure each other than coloured belts
the kimura trap off a single is my go to defense and i've done it many times. not one time have i come close to spiking someone on their head.
i don't get it
What. The. Fuck. Looks like competition bjj is gonna be ruined for me just like judo was.
Hang on, I knew about the sumi gaeshi thing but what's this about the kimura trap? U can't grab a kimura off an outside single?
Well that's the stupidest shit I've heard today. Way to go fucking up sport bjj

What about the switch from the same position? Or just dropping back for a guillotine? All of these counters have spiking potential.
Maybe people will have to start countering head outside singles with Georgian grip uchi mata now."
What are you calling a Georgian grip uchi mata?
Do you have a link or a pic?
Just looked it up.
That is my preferred counter to a single, though I will normally take a belt grip, rather than turning in like maki komi.
This is a good rule
I love standing kimura. this is really too bad
just to add; are we allowed to grab the kimura and jump to guard ? figure there won't be takedown points til I let the kimura go

Soul Gravy - Keep supporting the IBJJF, guys.
LOL
nogidavid -
what about the sakuraba style kimura sumi geishi starting from a rear clinch ? is that ok as it's not a single leg counter
