How Mikey Musumeci Got The Fastest Submission In The History Of The IBJJF World's Black Belt Finals

[@marat304]

Both of them SO kind that I'm sure if Mikey break Bernardo's leg Bernardo will reply "It is OK"

[@SwampCityRadio1974]

And, "great honour".

[@Vscustomprinting]

Lol 😂 true alphas

[@MrSinusu]

@@SwampCityRadio1974 Man, you came just before me. I wanted to say this.

[@richherbert1021]

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry" "No it's ok..."

[@dylanstone407]

Thank you for break leg, now i understand. It was really cool to feel the pop.

[@mizujunior2519]

He didnt just teach a technique, he brought light into something that was invisible to us.

[@andregoncalves5873]

Gotta respect that level of understanding of the technique.

[@kianbazarjani194]

What a great teacher. Very little people come close to replicating the teaching ability of Danaher and his team - Mikey has done exactly that. Explains what his goals are from each position, why these are the goals, and gives practical ways of achieving these goals. Many people might just see the video is 14 minutes long, and decide to skim through it, skip around, or avoid watching it entirely. If you sit through and try to soak in as much knowledge as possible, Mikey will give you conceptual insights that will carry you to black belt and beyond.

[@joaquinmaria1581]

Have you got his nogi instructional ?

[@Sometimes_Always]

Geezus.. Even though he was JUST explaining it, I was afraid for Bernardo.. Mikey is a total beast.. What an incredibly gifted BJJ-er

[@RubenBJJ96]

Literally the two nicest people in jiu jitsu. I would love to hear these two on a podcast or both do an entire instructional together!!

[@richherbert1021]

So good. "Why do I do this?" What a great explanation of each detail.

[@bxlawless100]

I think this kid might be a genius. No joke. I’ve met a few geniuses and the speak like him.

[@SatoruGojo-r4k]

Such a nice and respectful person. He always smiles no matter what happens

[@jptothetree]

Getting that heel up on the ribcage definitely makes this ankle lock feel a lot more like a heel hook lol. Seriously, amazing detail with the starting-at-the-pinky-toe-to-bend-the-foot thing!

[@HansDavidian]

That's what I thought too 🤩

[@JimSmith-nb4tx]

What I like about Mikey is that he loves to teach in detail.

[@BK_2016sr5]

I like that he is a little sadistic lol

[@roachzero2952]

Mikey is amazing !! The man would never hurt anyone on purpose yet holds the strength & determination of a killer .

[@guss25100]

It’s insane how he’s such a great guy, but straight up laughs about the best way to send someone’s foot to Valhalla. Amazing understanding of technique

[@andrewferris1903]

The heel on the chest is such a critical detail, once it's there you can either go for the break on the foot or the knee by rotating it.

[@HansDavidian]

Dude it's practically a legalized heel hook for white belts 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

[@andrewferris1903]

@@HansDavidianLook up "Aoki Lock" and thank me later ;)

[@HansDavidian]

@@andrewferris1903 God damn is that legal too for all levels?

[@app369]

3:28 Bernardo just ogre grips Mikey's ankle like a small wrist.

[@lucasdevaldivia7938]

What a completely contagious smile and laugh !

[@dmtjnani9951]

Jujitsu is full of beautiful kind people. So cordial. So childlike this young man. Thanks for the tip.

[@FourDogs1111]

Dude is 24

[@dmtjnani9951]

@@FourDogs1111 don’t remind me! This body is 43. But still love the mat.

[@phobowl]

Mikey is such a great teacher and explainer I’m sure when he retires and open his own school he’s gonna produce champions.

[@EmbddedJiuSage]

Mikey has a special talent in explaining

[@nastradonis]

This was an amazing lesson. Thank you for your explanation of the science behind how the foot works and where we should focus our efforts. Truly appreciate you brothers. - Adonis from Gracie Sports Academy in Norwalk, CT.

[@spire393]

A natural teacher. Just brilliant

[@MrZaku73]

Two of the best and nicest guys in bjj ever!

[@monkeyrook]

Mikey breaks down the game in a way we can’t see , thank you for sharing

[@TakedownBreakdown]

Look at that squat on 1:28. That's amazing. Been working on my squat and it's nowhere near that

[@waihongwong713]

Asian squat

[@GratefulPrimate]

Great explanation, Mike. Now I'm ready to do this to my boss, lol

[@smeargut1809]

This young man is a phenomenal jiujitsu player, I’m learning so much.

[@MrSinusu]

Musumeci, your analysis of human body mechanism is amazing. Everything comes together and makes sense. Very impressive. By the way, Musumeci has such a beautiful and and an adolescent smile. But I know he can pull every limb of my body with that boyish smile. Scary.

[@pacus123]

First time I heard about this guy was two days ago. Love him! He's incredibly detailed in his explanations. Humble and polite as well

[@JohnnyJiuJitsu]

This is one of the most detailed teaser instructionals I’ve seen here. Very impressive.

[@Calvin-xp4qp]

Not sure how I got here but what an amazing tuturial! Thank you

[@jwenz01]

I really enjoyed this video. Thank you. Mikey’s enthusiasm comes through for sure.

[@1N2345]

I've had success with straight footlocks, but I'll definitely try this approach! Thank you so much. 2 great people coming together to spread knowledge!

[@JSMinstantcoaching]

Mikey is such a warm heart !!! Amaising

[@dtrain5519]

Love to see Mikey and Marcelo Garcia collaborate!!!😃

[@OwDoRegularDave]

Amazing deets! Huge honour for us!

[@DontbeanNPC]

The two nicest guys in Jiu-jitsu and yet both of them are absolute killers.

[@michigidi]

That leg and foot anatomy breakdown. Great instruction Mike!

[@robertlester4569]

Makes perfect sense to understand the anatomy of that which you are breaking.

[@Dan-pm5rt]

Mickey the type of guy to submit you and write a letter to your family apologising. Awesome character.

[@charliefrombrooklyn1511]

This is so excellent. You are a hero!

[@shogunkristina]

He is such a Dork...but I like it

[@Leitefsj]

Mikey has such a kind smile! Reminds me of Seta Sōjirō 😈

[@snamone]

Wow he is ridiculously technical! Great video!! I now have to buy his instructional

[@jlguzman7810]

As a cat scan technologist Mikey is speaking my language basically put your hand just below the patellar tendon push on the tendon which will prevent dorsiflexion of the foot and keep the foot in plantar flexion grab the cross collar turn and your there .Got it 👍👍👍thanks Mikey

[@ABSkye]

the kindest black belt always with a black eye. Oss

[@jayadams9794]

Somebody did an excellent job raising that young man.

[@VelhaGuardaTricolor]

He has the exact same mindset of HELIO GRACIE. Studying the human body, trying to make it more and more efficient all the time. Funnily enough HELIO was also very unassuming physically. Rickson Gracie once mentioned him being very strong was detrimental to his learning perfect techniques, since it was soooo tempting for him to simply force it with power. He had to make an extra mental effort not to succumb to the temptation.

[@crowsnest43]

He is the nicest absolute monster.

I want to see a mikey muscemi functional movement video im 22 my hips are done! He has hips like his 22 months old 😳

[@tylersaupe1612]

How old is this kid. My God! He's lightyears ahead of his age I feel.

[@mikea5726]

I understand how he got to this because when you're short and you like leg locks the hard part isn't getting there as much as controlling the foot. Naturally the foot is in your face, so you grab the heel and lock the foot between your neck and shoulder kind of like a shotput. It's mostly because that's the best grip you can get and trying to jam someone's foot in your armpit who knows exactly what you're trying to do isn't so simple....this is. The fact that this kid naturally came across the same thing that I'd bet countless other people who trained did, and he decided to analyze, test and teach it to others is what the martial arts is all about. The name should go to who takes the time to expose it to the most eyes, and things can always change. A Von Flue can become a Von Preux before you know it. I also just watched Ghost Dog again, so maybe I'm being too philosophical.

[@boomdunker]

Savant Mikey ...

[@greasebob]

This guy lives and breathes jiu-jitsu. Just think what he will be able to do in 5 years.

Does the butterfly-ashi put your top leg in danger of an estima lock? It looks like a vulnerability to me.

hey guys, just checking, which instructional is this from
