BJJ Purple Sleeps Wrestler | 170lb No-Gi Showdown

That was cold af.

Bad ref. And that "wrestler". Should have tapper that shit was tight

[@ChristopherCarpenter]

I agree, the referee should have been way closer and paying attention and be ready to stop if there is damage. Personally I feel a lot of responsibility for knowing when someone falls asleep and letting go so as not to cause any harm, but that’s the damn REFEREE’S job. I have personally witnessed an amateur mma fight where a guy got slept real bad, started shaking and the referee was just standing there in shock for longer than he should have before someone yelled, he got his senses together and broke it up. However I will never forget being so close to the cage watching that poor guy shaking as he was still being choked and the ref didn’t stop it in time.

[@Spiritof_76]

Bad ref? He was only out for a few seconds.

[@ChristopherCarpenter]

@@Spiritof_76 he was only out for a second, because I chose to let go when he fell asleep. I definitely could have kept the choke on until the referee pulled me off of him had I not noticed or not cared that he was out. The referee did absolutely nothing to protect my opponent.

[@Spiritof_76]

@@ChristopherCarpenter It's not like a street fight with no one to intervene. Have you ever been to a tournament where someone got pissed as hell when the match was stopped and they didn't tap? That choke was so damned perfect he went out faster than anyone expected.

I actually found said MMA match in my archive: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bKSwZ3ihgLN3Y80

[@rodrigotellom]

why are wrestlers still underestimating a submission/BJJ in 2024?

[@juanaguirre3978]

submissions have always been apart of wrestling hence the name submission wrestling.

[@jutosgrind]

He got guillotined in top side control? He even was on the right side to defend it

[@nujxad]

he was on the wrong side, he made it tighter

[@hipplejames1]

I believe you are right, the wrestler passed to side control on the correct side and SHOULD have been safe. It looks like the purple belt’s grapevine with his left leg allowed him to keep his chest somewhat square with the wrestler, which prevented the wrestler from changing the angle and alleviating pressure on his artery. Also, I imagine the high elbow allowed the grappler to get more torque than with the standard grip.

Good stuff man, congrats on the win!

[@ChristopherCarpenter]

Appreciate it! Thanks for the comment.

[@Crystals10000]

He went right into the choke..handed it straight to him

[@jeromesurffoil7033]

Mazagati school of reffing graduate.

[@ChristopherCarpenter]

Haha, spot on! I literally told the ref twice 'He's out' as I let go. Not a fan of naptime in matches, but sometimes it happens. At least everyone's safe and we got to shake hands after. Maybe next time I'll bring the ref some coffee?

[@marrami2059]

Have you noticed how trashy these grappling refs are ? As if they’re thinking about dinner 🤦🏽‍♂️

[@ejta12222]

Do you know your opponents name??

[@ChristopherCarpenter]

I mean I didn’t/don’t know his name as this was the first time I met him. Theoretically I could have gotten his name from the smoothcomp website when I was competing as it lists your opponents name. It also shows it at the table, but I didn’t look or remember. What lead you to ask?

[@ejta12222]

He’s VERY cute, hehe! I was hoping to look to see if he has other matches posted on KZbin 😊

[@ChristopherCarpenter]

@@ejta12222 I will send him your way if I run into him again 🫡

[@jasonfong7517]

The defensive man moved the wrong direction right? Like he should’ve gone with it and try to roll all the way through?

[@seer775]

He was on the right side, all he had to do was enter side control and fight the hands.

[@Joker806HAHAHAHA]

You can finish the high elbow even if they pass to side if your hands are positioned correctly

[@deltoids1151]

correct wrong side
