  1. combat sambo is mma in a jacket thats the difference. strikes and ground and pound is permitted where in BJJ it isnt. i think sambo fighters beat BJJ guys in MMA rule sets but would lose in grappling only matches. its like setting up a bjj guy vs an mma guy.

  3. fk all that berimbolo nonsense. i hate it when i get to the gym and we're doing some goddamn useless shit like that, spider guard bs. all the beginners are standing around with wtf expressions on their faces, non of them can do a basic armbar or takedown and the teacher is like "put your foot here grab here put your other foot through there pull this and then put his leg blablalblalblalballbal
    how can i tell my teammates and coaches that i'm not interested in that shit and why can't we just concentrate on the fundamentals ? fundamentals win fights

  4. I have heard you a few times talk about inverted guard, but Isn't inverted guard sport Jiu-Jitsu?
