Modern MMA is turning into just kickboxing with the ability to end the fight on the floor Unless you get to back mount, mount, or accumulate significant riding time, grappling hardly scores The modern UFC is getting closer to Karate Combat than Pride

Joe Rogan believes that the current MMA rules favor strikers over grapplers, and suggests a rule change consisting of a 10-minute first round🤔 "The rules are set up much more for strikers than for wrestlers... the fight is the fight. I don't think you should stand people up,

My main motivation for starting a jiujitsu gym is because most jiujitsu gyms suck And I don't mean the jiujitsu is bad I mean the business is bad Really really bad Like why don't y'all post your schedule on the website?! What's the worst thing you've seen a BJJ/MMA gym do?

GSP is so far and away the best welterweight Not debatable Not close He beat former title holders from Strikeforce, Rumble On The Rock, Elite XC, Shooto, and WEC in addition to dominating arguably the second best welterweight twice GSP literally consolidated 170 around himself

Tom Aspinall is impressive for a lot of reasons Size, speed, power, etc. But what makes him different is how well he blends styles In less than 10 seconds he runs through a kick to snatch a RNC Kickboxing-wrestling-BJJ all fused for a flawless finish Aspinall is special

Watch how Lopes starts the back take See how his right knee slides into the space between Ige's elbow and knee? See how Lopes's left leg hooks Ige's right calf and breaks Ige's base? Stuff like this is how you know Lopes is a good modern competitive jiujitsu black belt

Look at Mikey's grip switching here He attacks the choke with the low hand As Almarawi defends Mikey harasses the face with the high hand Mikey then slips the low hand under the high hand to prevent any defensive grips so he can secure the submission Beautiful hand fighting

People are mythologizing Islam Makhachev He's great but not invincible We have clear ways to counter his grappling and they've been demonstrated before I analyzed Makhachev & who's had success against him to show Volkanovski has a path to win at UFC 284

Cool guard play from Benoit Saint Denis Gets taken down Goes for the pinch head lock & shoulder crunch Loses them because his elbow is too low Frevola tries to step over but gets caught on a butterfly hook Benoit digs an under hook on the same side and immediately sweeps Neat!
