And yes, white belts are super aggressive and will try to literally blow you away, which is quite literally the opposite of jiu jitsu.

omg chael crash posted:Can anyone recommend a nice, lightweight kimono that has a fastening system on the pants other than a drawstring? I'm partial to Tatami but I'm open to suggestions. This is really late to the question but the Sprawl grappling long pants are awesome. I wear them with different gi tops whenever I can. Light weight, have the fight short, velco lock system and a draw string incase you're between sizes. Best pants I own for grapple sports. Captain Log posted:Thank you. That's what I assumed but every loving name has that catholic thing going where there's roughly eighteen different names and I can't make heads or tails of what's going on. It was easier when I was in Germany and everyone just had a capoeira name. It's like soccer players. There's probably a whole lot of dudes named Silva, De Silva, Thiago, or whatever in their neighborhood and being "ninja" is easier for people to know who you are than being the fifth thiago de silva to walk into the gym. I used to get called Venom at my old gym because I had a sweet rashguard with the same design as the bad dude from the spider man comics. We had three people named Steve in the class. It was just easier that way. BlindSite fucked around with this message at 09:35 on Sep 23, 2014 |

PRIDE: How did you get the nickname Shogun? Rua : My friends gave it to me. They started calling me that 6 years ago and it stuck. My brother was called Ninja so they thought of a Japanese name for me. I was wearing a Shogun-brand gi at the time so that's why they called me Shogun. PRIDE Why was your brother called Ninja? Rua : Honestly, I don't remember. We've called my brother Ninja since we were kids. From what I've heard, Chute Boxe Japan's coach gave him the nickname. We didn't think we would be able to fight in Japan at the time, so it turned out to be a great nickname. I want to fight like a Shogun should.

How many assassins of various sorts are there in American MMA? It's not like everyone from outside brazil has got snowflake names for each fighter.

I'm still open to non drawstring gi suggestions, though.

"The Promise" vs. "Beastin 25/8" But make sure both of them are kicked out of UFC afterwards regardless of outcome

Renzo is rematching Sakuraba at Metamoris 5 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kpxdmohwNtE E: Renzo is the only cool Gracie and will probably take it considering the state Sakuraba is in. My heart goes with Sakuraba though. widunder fucked around with this message at 20:59 on Sep 24, 2014 |

I was just saying yesterday they should have Wanderlei vs Sakuraba in Metamoris. Why Kevin Casey why do they put drug failures on all their cards now.

I'm not saying I want Wanderlei anywhere but that would be the only avenue for him to go now, he at least has more name value than The N ew Breed Kevin Casey

Personally I think it will be cool to see Sakuraba compete without any overwhelming risk of further brain damage, apart from having to listen to Royce Gracie rant about something retarded after the match.

Serious question, what's he going to do when Renzo pulls guard? The leg kicks were his best weapon there but obviously not going to happen in Metamoris. What can he do besides dive into Renzo's guard or stand around and make the "cmon get up" motion while the ref does nothing?

We all saw what happened the last time a catch wrestler participated in Metamoris. Expect a repeat.
