    It's wild how gi and no-gi is so different -- two totally different martial arts / sports. Crazy how guys used to just show up to ADCC after doing no-gi for a few weeks inbetween gi seasons. He will pick it up fast

      Exactly, nowadays you must choose between one of them because they are completely different games. Back in the old days Gi guys trained for the ADCC for couple of months and thats was fine, now if you want be top in no gi you must do only no gi.

      It's only different if you're following competition rules sets like Gordon said, "you shouldn't lose your super powers because you took off your Gi." It's like saying boxing is completely different if you're fighting someone outside the ring. Not really, you just don't have your hands wrapped and covered and there's no rules telling you what is and isn't illegal to do. That's the difference between training MA for sport and training MA for life.

It covers any and every way to pass, to get around frames, and dealing with any possible thing they can do to defend against a body lock pass. It’s a 10 part instructional with 8 on instruction and 2 live rolls which 1 of is narrated by Gordon.

You need to practice it and be pretty high level to be able to appreciate some of what's going on. What I am saying is that Meregali is very aggressive and submission oriented. And if his opponent also tries to actually ay jiu jitsu the match becomes pleasure to watch.

      @dan5626 2 роки тому +1

      @@Dillon_Ditch Not true. There is a whole lineage of BJJ dedicated to foot, wrist and knee locks, under Master Oswaldo Fadda, going back to the 1940's. Several of today's big schools go back to that source, like GFTeam.
      These locks were frowned upon back then because were found to be aesthetically displeasing when compared to other techiniques.
      Like most things in life, the development of BJJ and grappling overall was not conducted only by one agent (i.e the Gracie family), however the impact that the Gracie family had in jiu-jitsu and the creation of vale-tudo is incomparable.
