The worst was when they'd say something like "Oh, and over on mat 4 somebody won by guillotine or something", cut over to show the guy getting his hand raised, and when you come back to the match they were showing it's either over or someone got reversed.

This is pretty much how it is when you go to a regular competition with a decent amount of other people from your group competing.

once again, just because you can hit a certain submission with regularity doesn't make it a "high percentage move" you moron

In grappling - since 2002

So was this just no-gi bjj or did you wrestle or something?

That I don't understand. I realize that doing a neck/spine/leg lock you saw on youtube once is very dangerous, but if you are only allowed to do things you learned there you're limiting yourself.

Yeah it's happened when I got armbarred and didn't tap soon enough. It hurt a little after but the next day it was fine.

I'm an idiot and grit my teeth whenever I do anything. I chipped my tooth choking someone. Since then I wear a mouthguard every time.

Competed in my first tournament today! Lost one match via RNC, lost the second on points, (4-2). Welp, back to the drawing board. Great time, though.

I've competed 4 times, today being the latest. Second tournament I competed in I hosed up and didn't tap soon enough and got choked out. They're great for showing you what you need to work on, and the pace is different from regular class which is fun.

Does anyone know anything about Tiger Schulmann BJJ? this weekend I was at a NAGA competition in New Jersey and on the day the kids compete they took 2 or so full mats for warming up and were doing calisthenics and poo poo as a group and it was kind of weird imo.

I think it's supposed to be more of a crushing choke. You can make it a choke that affects the carotid but it's not the only way.

You won't see them in MMA because you'd have to grab the glove for most of them. I've seen matches end with a wristlock at some competitions I've been to but they're not at all common

Wrestling is a lot more than just double and single legs.

No you see it's not fair because Gardner needed to wear a gi too and

The majority of orgs either use the unified rules or something very similar. So yeah, when you talk about MMA rules you're talking about those rules sorry you don't understand this
