The kimura in the picture should actually be a kimura and not an americana, there's no leglocks or compression submissions in the OP either.

The original version I wrote was 100% oriented towards MMA, I'm glad to see that people have expanded on it now that it's being used in the grappling thread too.

Two girls qualified for the Iowa Wrestling tournament, the first two ever. Just qualifying is a pretty big deal.

I don't know much about wrestling, but I assume that people wrestle those of all school years, right? The article says the girls are a sophomore and a freshman, so that means that they may be able to duplicate at least getting into the tournament quite a few times. That's cool.

This is actually possible to do (on someone on your back with hooks in). It almost happened to me when I was just starting out and it is very embarrassing.

how long does it take where I can actually be somewhat competitive with my partners? These were no gi classes so I'm not sure what level they were but I am pretty sure I was the only true beginner there this week.

Someone on here described this pretty well a while ago. They said that BJJ can be frustrating, especially at the beginning, because you keep going every day and every day you get whooped. That's because you're rolling with guys who come in just like you do and they are learning just as much as you are, so you feel like you don't advance, when in fact you are all advancing together. Some day a new guy is going to walk in that door and you're going to whoop on him and feel like a god - on that day you will know that you have improved.

Also, if you feel you are not learning and are just getting your butt kicked, absolutely talk to your partners. Try practicing a particular position, like starting with them in your guard, or you in their guard. Just go until someone is subbed, or the guard was passed, or someone was swept. At that point talk about what happened, try running it again, learn a counter or don't repeat a mistake. You will feel much more constructive and get more out of it, while still experiencing rolling. Plus, since you're still early on, this will give you a chance to get your breath back. I imagine there are people out there who are not into this idea because they are just there to roll, but you can always switch partners and those guys are pretty few and far between.

What is the deal with Alexandre Ribeiro and Roger Gracie? It looks like they have fought 8 times, with Roger leading with 5 wins. But Ribeiro has won 3 out of the last 4. Does he seem to have Roger's number now? I ask this from having only looked at results rather than watching fights, I'm curious if Alexandre has much improved or at least has figured Roger out.

I got it from wikipedia, from Roger's article.

Loss Alexandre Ribeiro Points (4-2) World Jiu-Jitsu Championship (Absolute Division) 2008 Final
Loss Alexandre Ribeiro Points World Jiu-Jitsu Championship (Absolute Division) 2006 Final
Win Alexandre Ribeiro Submission (Triangle) Pan American Jiu-Jitsu Championship 2006 Absolute Final

It's wikipedia though, but reading it was what prompted the question.

wrestling ruins everything

I actually don't have a problem with the way the class is set up, because it's a beginners class and a lot of people just don't have the experience or the conditioning to really get any benefit out of more open mat time. I think the 15 or so minutes you spend on positional sparring is more than enough for anyone new.

There's a compromise to this. You can still have an open mat, but beginners are asked not to do subs and they are encouraged to continue drilling what they learned in to open mat.

A tech fall in the finals is.even more emberasing than a pin I think. The better wrestler can always get caught in a pin. A tech fall, on the other hand, is just pure domination.

I hope they treat the Olympics like they did last time, you could stream recorded events as much as you wanted, even the little known ones. I watched a lot of Judo. I even saw a fight that was basically the Judo version of werdum_offers_side_control.gif. I wish I had noted the fighters so I could find it again.

It seems like this is slowly morphing into MMA/BJJ's version of Penn State. I wonder if the IBJJF and UFC will step up and ban Lloyd Irvin and anyone competing under his name from competing.

Penn State was an institution protecting one sick person. This is an institution perpetuating a sickness into its leaders. Irvin's is the Catholic church.

How welcome/commonplace are hobbyists training at reputable bjj gyms? I'm only a few classes in on this program stint but I really enjoy it so far. Taking further classes would depend a lot on finances and scheduling, but would there be any place for someone who just wants to take a class or two a week with no real intent of competing at any point, or would they make up mean nicknames for me and whip me with towels?

Most gyms will have subdivisions, possibly to several levels. I've seen beginners class (for everybody), then advanced class (usually blue belt and north), then a "fight team" that has separate requirements to be in - usually physical fitness and hours of practice. You get to participate at your level.

Does Royler compete at all any more? I'm interested in this Bravo rematch because I always viewed that triangle as kind of a fluke given Royler's sustained success in high level competition, but I'm not sure if there are any recent competitions to give us any idea what kind of condition either guy is in lately.

One more bit of newbie advice, talk to the instructors beforehand if you're really really new, specifically about the warmups. During drilling techniques they will walk you through every little bit of how to do it, but with warmups it's done in a big group so they may just name an exercise and start doing it - it's easier to talk before, you may even get a solo warmup where they walk you through each exercise.

I believe all of the Rodolfo/Buchecha matches to date were decided by points so it would most likely be a draw. 2/3rds of Metamoris matches at this point have gone the distance. The only finishes at III were in the two total mismatches.

There's an easy way to fix this.

Alternate side control, two minutes each. Can't finish? move to here.

I'm not sure the shoes had any real effect I would say the what looked to be a 60 lbs weight advantage had some effect. Also the fact that Dean isn't nor should he ever be considered a real heavyweight. Him walking around at 220 is more sloth than anything else, he doesn't lift at all so it's not muscle weight.
