craig jones is an international treasure.... change my mind

@sayvar44 He was actually born in Wellington

[@KingHirst]

Haha the look of disbelief on Rob's face when Craig was explaining that some people refuse to tap out to leg locks.

[@John-ly5rh]

Rob would do the same. Aka not tap. Look at how much damage he took in both yoel fights. This dude is an animal

[@frambojan]

"Do they not need their legs?". A very reasonable questions.

It's so easy to be a Craig Jones fan. He's a ridicules BJJ mastermind and a Wizard. Great guy and I will watch everything he does. Get'em Craig, you are special! I love the Palhares story. Craig is a gamer. No fear

[@RyanWalshGuitar]

This is my favorite MMA podcast. How did I just discover it now?

[@GIFT1FROM1THE1GODZ]

Craig and Bobby Knuckles, 2 of the nicest people in the Martial Arts world apparently. Awesome podcast.

[@FLsurferHurricanePLZ]

I like Robert whitiker alot, especially after listening to this channel, hes so damn humble and cool

[@mathewnorthey]

Thank god for legit mma shows like this, there are people keeping it real out there. Hope Robert has done something about his sex problem, onwards and upwards ;)

[@mathewnorthey]

@White Owl He`s married dood, come on now, be nice... lol

[@mathewnorthey]

@White Owl LMAO they are just trophies from the few times hes got the job done. Try support the guy ;)

Craig calls Gordon the best grappler in the world and months later he clean sweeps ADCC... Sound analysis.

[@ulysses2592]

Great show but please fix the audio, the host is so much louder than rob and craig

[@racoonmoney6612]

Just finished the podcast. If you're tuning in to find out why Robert Whittaker doesn't like sex you'll have to wait until the next one :(

[@Lightwaverable]

Did he say that before?

[@khunter8757]

When did he say that? All I've heard him say is that he doesn't want to talk about his sex life.

[@tango12341234]

A man the size of Palh having a doctors note is hilarious. Craig and Robert seem like good dudes

[@bassi1973]

Two wholesome dudes.

Watching this after the ADCC. The Miyao brothers are completely insane.

All 3 of these guys seem like they would be really cool to hang out with, but Rob takes the cake :D

so true . hard training weakens your immune system and you start to get sick from all kinds of shit

[@r.b.4611]

Holy shit Craig Jones! Star power on GrangeTV. Beat Keenan with wrestling.

[@powerful_smr5383]

This is the best MMA/Martial Arts podcast on KZbin. I would love to see you guys on Rogan's. I think audience would see how incredible your minds and personalities are; and that would push them to smash that notification button.

[@ods1ODS]

@Grange TV Hey Fabricio , Robert has credited you with his wrestling skill getting so good. Can you do an episode on your involvement in wrestling, Robert's wrestling partners, and Aussie wrestling in general?

[@ods1ODS]

@@TheFairOnePodcastGrangeTV Rob's wrestling skill has really blossomed under your tutelage. You can really see it in his clinch work. I remember when he started winning tournaments in Australia I thought he had a decent shot at qualifying for the Tokyo Games. Did you agree? And if I'm not mistaken, you're background is mostly BJJ? Have you always just had a good feeling for wrestling and got good at it as a byproduct of your grappling or were you a wrestler too? And finally, do you feel Aussie wrestling is on the rise? In addition to your homegrown talent you have quite a few international guys (Ilyasov, Prizreni, etc) plugged into both the wrestling and MMA scenes, have you guys trained with these fellas at all? I'm a writer covering wrestling and MMA for intermat.com and I always include Rob in my post fight write ups. You've got a new fan of your channel, thanks for the reply Fabricio.

[@angelorusso9345]

this episode was great lol

[@destro1989]

The boys!

[@foresttdog]

Love this podcast, and this was a particularly good one. Best part was probably the discussion on re-matches around 1:01:38.

[@MrJcock12]

So interesting about ibjjf or whatever it’s called.

[@rupertvdb]

Hi Guys, random one here but none of my podcast services on the phone will download your podcast. It always says download failed. I can only watch your shows on here. Big ask but can you figure it out? Would love to listen to you when I’m in the gym and right now I can’t!

[@annajagla3395]

After hearing Craig stories you realize the difference between bjj and mma is in what you can remember from your fighting career. Mma, if gone wrong leaves you with very Little to talk about

[@Bruh-vy3td]

*!Guys give me your opinion on this!* I think grapplers in MMA should be able to butt scoot and not be forced to stand. Like: if they are butt scooting and the other guy on his feet is backing up- the stand up guy is the staller. The stand up guy is running away from a guy on his butt and not engaging. Why should the guy on his butt be forced to stand? That's good strategy and it's not stalling. Its orienting the fight where you want it-and scooting toward the stand up guy. The guy running away from the butt scooter is stalling. Your thoughts?

[@Bruh-vy3td]

@MrJre4491 I dont think they should stand them up in a dominant position either though. Stand ups make no sense imo.

[@peekaboojujitsoo525]

then you completely turned a "combat" sport into contrived nonsense. If they are allowed to butt scoot then the guy standing should be allowed to knee, stomp, or kick him in the face and/or body.

is it because I'm american that I couldn't hear a difference between how we say Craig and the Aussie's say it?

[@bthetechnique6581]

Did not hear the difference in pronunciations of Craig at all. What's the Australian pronunciation?

[@merkins87]

Craig is from Victoria, Rob, Eli & Fab are from New South Wales. Victorians tend to pronounce their "e"s like "a"s. Very subtle differences between accents otherwise, variations usually occur between different ethnic backgrounds.

[@bthetechnique6581]

@@merkins87 that's interesting but there's no 'e' in Craig which to me both times sound like Creg. Was it like Creg vs CrAge?

[@bthetechnique6581]

Or creeg?

@@bthetechnique6581 yeah it would sound almost like Greg to a foreigner. I didn't actually realise that Craig ("cray-g") is actually from South Australia, but he's clearly spent a fair bit of time in Victoria
