Andrew Tackett Guard Passing Study - CJI

[@chokeabloke713]

King of cardio 😂

[@linksvexier9272]

Tackett's chaining of high precision positional passing at speed amazing. I'm turtling straight away.

[@mifune3000]

Gustavo! I'm soo happy that you note his "athleticism" for us older guys *)

[@MMALeech]

Absolutely! I can't do half of what he did :)

[@66killen6]

Same, but I'll try it all​@MMALeech

[@emmurman]

0:56 Hip and Knee Post Toreando 4:18 Same Side Shin Post and Collar Tie to North South 7:52 Combining Both Passes

[@ajcinstalls]

Have you ever seen anyone smash into north-south with such dominant control??!! AJ is the future of grappling

[@MMALeech]

Bright future ahead indeed!

[@RodolfoMartinez-px6cj]

Great breakdown of great technique! I would have loved to have seen Andrew v Levi. That would have been epic.

[@MMALeech]

Agree 100%

[@benphilo4672]

Really feel he would’ve broke through Levi’s guard much quicker than Tye, he and his brother pass to a more compact North South that makes it much harder to reguard.

[@user-ku2tq1js2v]

I think Andrew limbs aren’t as long as the Kade and Ty allowing for a bit tighter passing

[@MMALeech]

I would love to see that match!

[@davidchico9574]

I too think Tacked has better prospects at passing Levi’s guards. Having said that is not guaranteed. Levi has the guard of all guards 💂‍♂️

[@grantwoods2773]

Always enjoy your study’s I hope to see some more of your insights on the CJI

[@MMALeech]

Thank you Grant!

[@errgo2713]

I haven't watched this channel is ages, so nice of the algo to remind me of it. This was a great breakdown of easily the most fun to watch competitor in CJI

[@MMALeech]

Glad you are back!

[@kvstvmaf3150]

That was so clear. I understand now! Thank you Professor!

[@MMALeech]

Excellent!

[@GoldBJJ]

Excellent breakdown 👏🏻

[@MMALeech]

Thank you!

[@thos1618]

The ankle control pass reminds me of Longstep passing in the Gi.

[@soumyabratachakraborty3544]

The second pass looks exactly similar like the one they use in 10th planet know as Dreidel. I used to use it a lot but the seating variation did had some major drawbacks so stopped using it but this seems like an enhancement of the original dreidel, can't wait to try the standing variation. Thanks for the breakdown coach :)

[@MMALeech]

Glad you liked it!

[@celinhobjj]

Absolutely amazing analytics.

[@user-ku2tq1js2v]

This guy sounds like Renato Laranga with a cold

[@MMALeech]

Thanks for recognizing the accent :)

[@hermanmelville3871]

Checkmat passing. Looking like Leo Vieira back in 2003.

[@thos1618]

Epic reference. So true too.

[@owengrantjj]

Great breakdown man, thank you!

[@MMALeech]

Thanks Owen!

[@owengrantjj]

Would love a breakdown of Levi’s guard work from CJI 🙏🏻

[@matiaswajner7937]

So dope

[@808BJJ_Black_Belt]

Nice 👍

[@Carlitosmalo]

Tacketts jiu-jitsu was extremely impressive 👏

[@MMALeech]

It was!

[@DSVN23]

“Eugene” Eoghan O Flanagan 😂

[@TheEverydayJiuJitsuPodcast]

Great video

[@MMALeech]

Thank you!

[@louisdlariviere3824]

0:31 😂lol

[@vinnyp9877]

Would really like to see Andrew vs Levi

[@cameroon95]

The first pass that he does against Flanagan, is that more of a neck/lat grip on the opposite side of the head? Is it more advantageous that having a crossface grip for the same seated pass? as I noticed you mentioned a few times that he progresses from the crossface to the other side of the head

[@MMALeech]

Correct, the crossface grip leaves an opening on the side where the opponent wants to move, which is away from the passer. In contrast, the overhead grip blocks the opponent with the whole hand and forearm.

[@MichaelJames707]

🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@tylerdurden7918]

We got robbed of seeing Tackett Vs Levi Jones Leary, great passer against great guard, would of been fun to see

[@MMALeech]

agree 100%

[@imakimmy2]

haha "King of Cardio"

[@FaradayDave-x2s]

White Donna Rodriguez Anthony White Carol

[@artemlipat2882]

"for old fart who can't stand up from the cart without pulling hamstring" - 😅 Thank you for feeling I'm not alone so injury prone. I like your channel more ❤

[@anw00000]

Olivarez vs Ibragimov at adcc was way better than anything at cji.

[@MMALeech]

It was a great match indeed

[@JohnsonAntonio-s5y]

Thomas Barbara Harris Anthony Jackson Jennifer

[@cdcaleo]

Tackett is a machine! And he beat Kade, as far as I'm concerned.

[@MMALeech]

He's def a machine!

[@dubstepXpower]

Same

[@ShaheedSmoke]

Say! It! Again! He was robbed.

[@mooseymoose]

I'm old and broken will probably never be able to roll again, but this was pretty cool!

[@MMALeech]

Hope you can be back at some point!

[@Philip-dy3ww]

His passing is so basic …. It’s his athleticism that makes the difference

[@MMALeech]

athleticism, timing, relentless pace

[@aristolochene]

flograppling recently posted a video of a Rafa Mendes seminar at jiu jitsu con about a version of this guard exhibited @ 8:08. Nice breakdown. Thank you.

[@swoopingeagle3942]

Levi would have entengled his legs a thousand time imo, but for sure one of the best passing performance in a while.

[@brendanBJJ]

not sure about this one. Levi had a tough time entangling Kade towards the end and Kade plays his passing inside of the guard which inherently exposes the legs. Andrew’s passing style is leading with the upper body and keeping the legs far away

[@badxradxandy]

Police brutality lmao
