To all the halfwits saying he was "cheating" for using his tied-up hand when a piece of fabric was right there, Rener explicitly said, before starting, that he would tie his arm in order to protect his shoulder but would use his hand if necessary. The point was to give us a chance to roll with him while he protected his injured shoulder, not some sort of challenge match with a contract. Before rolling with the Megaton black belt, he even made a joke along the lines of, "If I have to use my right arm a little, don't get mad at me." The whole thing was light, playful and friendly. (I was at the seminar.)
@@aplacetobewithmythoughts7428 No, because that's not legal in or out of the sport in jiu jitsu. heel hooks aren't legal in most competitions, toe holds, ect. But that doesn't mean it isn't a technique you should learn. BJJ is a self defense art and a sport, and the sport has more strict rules. And from what i read just now, as of 2018, ibjjf started allowing reaps and heel hooks in brown and black belt tourneys.
What you explain at 1:58 is just so simple, so intelligent, so logical, so basic and yet so effective... You force his head down to make him put his head up. Brillant. It's so natural to go against the force that he just tried to go against. So the lesson is, if you want him to go in a direction, force him to go the other. Awesome!
Same applies in judo. If you want someone to move towards you, you push against them so they resist and as they resist that's when you throw them. It's a common principle in BJJ and Judo. Even in the Muay Thai clinch.
This is why I love jiu-jitsu. The intelligence, and effectiveness you see in one thing. One little technique that results in a locked triangle. It’s the simplicity in the technique that makes it so impressive. Many people think “it’s something everyone is taught, anyone can do that move.” First, no. Second yes. I’m sure it’s commonly taught but not shown how something as small as that technique can result in a finish. Of course anyone can do this. Anyone can do any move.
The guys rolling with Rener are getting a concentrated dose of learning. They'll be able to replay those 2 minutes over and over again to think about technique, position, and strategy. Good for them.
I appreciate him saying he isn't sport. There are many leg locks I use, but I can't in Sport BJJ, I can in Sambo, but even then, there are rules in Sambo to follow. So I love when an instructor allows us to work illegal submissions. Out there in the streets (Not that I would ever wanna fight in the streets and the ground being the last place I'd wanna be, don't be too critical of this comment) and the cage it's free for all, and submissions can come from anywhere. There is this one guy who beats everyone with a neck crank. Even if he's in their guard, he's just so strong, even our black belt instructor gets beaten by him alot and he's just a white belt who uses pure strength, just grabs and squeezes the neck. Everyone kind of hates on him for it, way I see it, he's good practice for the unpredictable strength someone can have, beginner or not.
+Christopher Corral Brutal strength is effective from the ancient Olympic games. In Pankration (ancient mma) at least 2 Olympians won by just grabbing the rivals fingers and brake them...eye gauging, biting, and strikes to the balls were not permitted, that is why Spartans did not take place in Olympic Pankration, even though they were the best warriors.
+Christopher Corral Man no offense but there's no way a black belt should be consistently getting tapped by a white belt. I would be going to a different school.
Willie Jackson He hasn't come in anymore. But a black belt is just another belt. This guy was no BJ Penn, he only used two moves and that was it. My instructor finally beats him tho but the trick is basically to be quicker than him. But just to prove a point, look at Mariusz Pudzianowski who beat a gracie in 40 seconds. My instructor is 47 and started BJJ when he was 33, so he just got his black belt like 5 years ago. But the thing is that he has no shame in losing to belts lower than him. It's rare to see him lose but when he does it's alright. We do have another guy who is Purple Belt, my instructor had a hard time whether or not to promote him but he's been doing BJJ for more than 10 years, reason why is because he explodes to get people off (n it workse surprisingly everytime) He exposes himself alot and he only uses one submission always which is the kimura. If ur instructor were to lose to a strongman that was a white belt would u lose respect for him? Everyone is human, sometimes there are things such as bad match ups, and sometimes people just lose lol A belt is a belt and sometimes even Wrestlers go in there making BJJ champions lose. But it's not the end of the world either haha.
***** That is true, but it's also true that size matters. We've got a guy that's like 5ft 4 and weighs like 120 - 130, he is just super fast and really technical, and that is awsome, but sometimes strength makes all the difference. If strength and size didn't matter then there would be no weight classes. And I know there's open weight but then I see sometimes people like Monson or Josh Barnett that compete against BJJ players half their size and Monson and Barnett always win. N these BJJ guys they face are not anything to laugh at either. There was one competition I saw where this BJJ guy was taking everyone out and makes it to the open weight finals, goes up against Monson, loses based on points but it was like he couldn't do anything to get out from under Monson, sure he would get back to Guard, but Monson would always just flip him over to get to side mount again.
Actually, you wouldn't have too much of an advantage against a blindfolded grandmaster. He can see the position in his head anyway. Some exceptionally gifted chess players give demonstrations playing blindfolded against multiple opponents and they manage to keep track of all the games. Remembering and visualising just one game would be a piece of cake in comparison.
I have to believe render gives just enough to cover the other guy, so different levels of people challenges get different efforts, I couldn't imagine what he could do to someone if life death was on the line, to be able to handle anther strong adult yet not hurt them with one hand is so incredible, must people would have to over compensate due to not being great or even good at grappling/ Jj And would hurt their opponent
Just started bjj in the uk England to be exact, just brought my first gi been going about a month and is by far the best thing I've tried so far, I'm going to look at your website now, the breakdowns and information you pass on in your videos are excellent and very easy to follow, more inviting to watch more as I'm learning, some videos are quite boring and hard to understand which can be off putting, thank you for posting
Wow, it was awesome for you to narrate yourself while rolling. Thanks for all of your help in not only this video, but all of them that I have seen before. Have some fun
I like how the guy in his last match forced him to "cheat" and use his injured arm to secure the submission. I like how he also apologized for that afterwards.
***** I think Rener was just being courteous to his opponent, about the sub ...he would have got the opponent's arm anyway at that point and were this say, a guillotine choke, rener as he'd sorta alluded earlier might be able to grab and connect with his injured hand or a lapel to complete the sub, so grabbing the other hand if its in reach when you're injured is not in that sense a big issue imho .. good rolling from all the participants.
Next you should show a video of your uncle royler rolling with one leg~ It's ok if he gets dominated because as long as he doesn't tap, you can run commentary over it and make it seem like he wasn't dominated :D
Amazing rolling! Thanks so much for sharing! By any chance, could you guys breakdown how to get out of side control from a heavier opponent? I find it so hard to get out of side control in general, but especially if he is heavier. Thanks so much again, all the best!
Nice break-down, I can see the strategy and logic on your skills; eventhough I am a KyoKushinKai practitioner I can see this knowledge coming handy to me if I get knocked down in a street fight. Stay strong.
This isn't just simply a matter of "superior skill" vs the "less skillful". It is more or less a matter of someone, like Rener, who's spent thousands of hours of training and sparring with one or both arms wrapped up. This isn't just skill alone here.
For people who look at it like, how cocky is he, this is unfair, offcourse he would be better..... Thats just too close minded Look at it more like, he is doing this 1 handed. It just shows how good your skill can get. And it also shows a more realistic application, on the street u wont always be a 100% and be able to use everything (hands/arms/legs) like normal.
Rener, not sure if you read YT comments, but I'm wondering if you've got more one-handed rolling footage around. I injured my pinky on my dominant hand and found this vid incredibly helpful. I'm a fresh purple and tried rolling hand-in-belt last night and actually had some success...well, definitely learned a lot anyway. Those details about controlling the leg to prevent turning over, and stepping in the armpit when you have a grip on the arm were gold, not to mention the way you used that spider hook on the bicep from all angles. Got stuck in side control a few times with my usable arm on the "wrong" side (ie not the side I can frame on his neck) but not too surprising as most people pass to their left. Any additional thoughts, vids or advice would be great, since I'm in this mini cast for another 7 weeks!
you're right, the problem is that i'm very passionate about this sport that I've loved and trained in for about 12 years. I resent frauds and fakes like Ari and everything they stand for. The video itself is good fun
Just for those who didn't know, Ari (the "brown belt"), pretended to be a black belt by wearing a black belt while filming UA-cam videos. He had the skill of a white belt at the time. I'm sure if you google ari bolden fraud, you can read the full gist if his scamming.
He uses his "tied" grip constantly throughout all three rolls. I know he isn't moving his arm freely, but sneaking in those quick grips matters a good bit.
I love how he use's the Heart arm. That's true love to me. The arm you'd use to hold your woman or you baby child. The arm that kills is tied down!. Love and Respect
I broke my army a 7 months ago and I have to training literally with one army and I have learning a lot...and a lot people from my team can see my evolution using one army...my movement with the legs and the whole body is better then the other people and I could understand that the jiu Jitsu is not just your army...and when the people try to use one army the always says how you can training like that and make us tap out . What don't kill you make you stronger .

"I don't do sport, so it is legal for me", I love that comment haha. Cool video
Nice!
sport jiu jitsu still has that stupid rule of reaping the knee? omg get with the program ibjjf
i thought he said "i OWN the sport" so its legal for me lol
So I can punch someone in the face during rolling and just say “I don’t do sport so it’s legal to me.”?
@@aplacetobewithmythoughts7428

You are so good, Rener!
Rener you and your brother are why I started Jiu-Jitsu. Thank you for your non stop enthusiasm. This was a great narrative, as always. 🙏😊👍
Love the replays of key transitions and highlights. Rener is the man
Damn that first sweep is dope!

Moist Von Lipwig well I mean the dude is a black belt under megaton
So happy I was there. Rener is such a great person
Great to watch. Loved working with you guys in Destin! Thanks for the awesome roll and instructions. Be safe out there!
Awesome hearing the thought process as you're rolling! Very insightful.
Rener your amazing bro...real inspiration to both kids and adults.
i always love seeing these breakdowns by Rener!
Thank you, I'm trying to learn more about this stuff so it will be easier as a beginner
Amazing.A GREAT teacher and very humble.
Unstoppable! Beeautiful jiu-jitsu Rener!
I could watch this all day!
You are so great in commenting the videos that makes it so easy to follow for me from Gracie Barra The Netherlands
Rener you are AMAZING!!! you are my idol everybody LOVES you, God bless you!!!
Superb Ju-Jitsu...timing is everything!
Great video Rener
Inspirational! Been rolling one-armed for almost a month, tapping non stop but certainly better than not training at all! Very interesting.
I've seen some people training in a cast, it's very inspirational.
+BJJ Cache I saw a guy rolling with a boner and he used it to hook his lapel and then go around the neck to tap out his rolling mate. Cockychokey
U smash me with one hand at the gym fed...
I love hearing Rener talk.
Gotta share this. Amazing!
Nice one. You make it look easy and that's with one hand.
Are the Gracie's from another planet ? How can they be so much better than everyone else. I gotta get with Gracie BJJ !!!
Thanks Rener! I learned something from these rolls.
This is fascinating, if you've never done bjj before you can't understand how fascinating this is
beautiful class!!!!
Parabéns bela aula, obrigado por permitir que nós vejamos isso!!!!
WOW! Sneaky trick to release the hand! I'm gonna use today!
Love all your videos brother
That was awesome! Well done Rener.
That just blows me away. What an ART!!!!!!
Next you should show a video of your uncle royler rolling with one leg~
It's ok if he gets dominated because as long as he doesn't tap, you can run commentary over it and make it seem like he wasn't dominated :D
H'spect
H'eally good post.
He even says he cheated a little but for the majority,his arm is tied!
Lots of valuable information in this clip so pay attention!
I've been doing this for newaza in judo. Fantastic way to fix imbalances between the arms.
Amazing rolling! Thanks so much for sharing! By any chance, could you guys breakdown how to get out of side control from a heavier opponent? I find it so hard to get out of side control in general, but especially if he is heavier. Thanks so much again, all the best!
Rener, você me lembra muito seu avô, com essa paciência e observação do oponente. Perfect timing.
Rener's a really smart guy..From one second to the next..knows exactly what's going on
You are amazing Rener!
this is actually incredible. mind blown
Nice break-down, I can see the strategy and logic on your skills; eventhough I am a KyoKushinKai practitioner I can see this knowledge coming handy to me if I get knocked down in a street fight. Stay strong.
Awesome as usual. Thanks.
make more of these types of vids where u commentate over your fights its pretty learnful ya know
You are great. A lot of years of experience !!
So impressed, would love to learn Gracie JJ
This is amazing, he is so high level. Very admirable.
He said he cheated. So humble lmao
This isn't just simply a matter of "superior skill" vs the "less skillful". It is more or less a matter of someone, like Rener, who's spent thousands of hours of training and sparring with one or both arms wrapped up. This isn't just skill alone here.
Just had shoulder surgery last month. Being off the mat is killing. Thx for posting this video.
Hey man. How has the recovery been and are you back to light drilling or rolling yet?
I've been drilling and light rolling with 1 arm. Still have some shoulder pain post op. But its way better than it was.
For people who look at it like, how cocky is he, this is unfair, offcourse he would be better..... Thats just too close minded
Look at it more like, he is doing this 1 handed. It just shows how good your skill can get.
And it also shows a more realistic application, on the street u wont always be a 100% and be able to use everything (hands/arms/legs) like normal.
Great breakdown, but I have been hoping that y'all would have a Daniel Cormier vs Dan Henderson breakdown.
LOL, injured shoulder my eye. They do that stuff just to show you how sick their BJJ really is. Amazing :D
DAMNNNNNNNN it's crazy you beat 2 renowned black belts with 1 hand!!!!! woooooooowwwww

When are you back in Vancouver. . . Will you be stopping by some of the jujitsu clubs here?
the brown belt is Ari - he could have used no hands and a blindfold and still be fine
So angry.
lol
you're right, the problem is that i'm very passionate about this sport that I've loved and trained in for about 12 years. I resent frauds and fakes like Ari and everything they stand for. The video itself is good fun
TheGraciefighter101 just curious why is Ari a fraud?
yes why is fraud?
Just for those who didn't know, Ari (the "brown belt"), pretended to be a black belt by wearing a black belt while filming UA-cam videos. He had the skill of a white belt at the time. I'm sure if you google ari bolden fraud, you can read the full gist if his scamming.
Even though you cheated TWICE against that last dude lol, twas a good video with awesome commentary.
You're a legend man! hope i meet you one day!
"And I catch him on the relaxation adjustment!"-Rener
Some people would keep things like that too themselves,but not Rener!Respect!
I guess you just can't relax when rolling with him. ;)
That little foot sweep reminded me of things you might see in silat.
He uses his "tied" grip constantly throughout all three rolls. I know he isn't moving his arm freely, but sneaking in those quick grips matters a good bit.
I don't know anything avout bjj but you seem te be the real deal! good job man!
Amazing man I'm learning a lot from you'll
Bloody awesome video
Pure art to watch
Oh damn I didn't know they came to Vancouver....I would have came....DAMN!
I love how he use's the Heart arm. That's true love to me. The arm you'd use to hold your woman or you baby child. The arm that kills is tied down!. Love and Respect
🌸 wow amazing, I’m learning so much from these vids
Thank you 🤗✨
The 1st family of Brazilian Jiujitsu !!!

Love it how he's still using the tied hand LOL
very informative Rener
That's amazing !
Great vid🔥
So amazing!
the purple rolled much better than the 'brown'
This is why T CITY has a high level grappling. His mentor is of a different level.
Great stuff.
i feel like the next thing rener is going to do is he’s going to start communicating his own fights😂
This was a fun and interesting video. Who would thumbs down this?
Can't find an academy to train on your website which would be located in Sydney. Any recommendations? Thanks +GracieBreakdown
Hey Rener, I have the footage of the roll with the brown belt. In HD. Let me know if you want that...
Love The Videos👍
Beast. Period.
Damn that's so incredibly awesome, I want to be this good.
Rener, com todo o respeito, mas em algumas ocasiões importantes você utilizou as duas mãos. Oss!
Amazing, one arm!
"......call me, you can choke me out for free, satisfaction guaranteed" :-) :-) :-) Big Respect to you guys, always a pleasure watching you
I wish I could do 1/1000th of what Rener can do!!! Fucking guy is amazing
Hello Gracie when do U come to México?
