That coach is creating a killer. He's teaching inverted triangles to white belts! Nice finish

[@shaynepowell9664]

Idk if it's a school to school thing, but the only moves ik white belts are restricted from are like knee bars and heel hooks. Hell, traditionally the Gracie's wouldn't allow rolling until blue belt. Although my gym teaches everyone everything. Well....as far as standard submissions go. All the unorthodox ones are taught in either no-gi classes, leg lock classes.....or at my gyms syster location, an advanced class.

[@jretotheworld]

@@shaynepowell9664 I find that "no rolling until blue" the biggest joke ever.

[@fredk6992]

@@jretotheworld exactly, how tf can you be a blue belt with no experience

[@shakh1407]

@@jretotheworld it does make sense though, white belts mostly have no idea what they're doing, and experimenting during live rolling leads to injuries a lot. White belts spaz out a lot too and just try and power through everything. I should know, I'm also a white belt :D

[@aiydanf]

Entertaining to listen to the competitor respond to the coaches clear instructions like that. Also great sportsmanship from the opponent.

[@bobby9192]

Great job, every win I get is from following coaches instruction. He pretty much walks me through each match.

Yeah works on low level competition, a lot less so against elite competitors

[@robertnoriega1388]

Was that the same as adcc Bodoni got on Dinz 🤔 looks badass 👊😎

[@tombeans2204]

nah was from armbar to triangle with the lock behind Dinis head, Bodonis bottom leg closest to Dinis hip was the leg that went over Dinis shoulder, Bodonis leg closest to Dinis head was the leg that went to lock the lock around the other foot.

[@k-c]

As a white belt I couldn't compute what a "reverse inverted triangle" meant in that kind of situation.

[@jtecheira304]

The coach won that match

[@nickmaddalena985]

Random comment here, as an ex judo student blue belt level when I was young. I find Brazilian jujitsu very different in thr distance of approach and defence on ground fighting. To me they are fighting in the danger zone. Meaning not far away enough or not close enough to make locks no longer effective. One day I plan to give it a go, but in judo it's all about leverage and those huge dynamic movements. I would be levering my opponents body to get in super close for a choke or arm bar. Looks interesting, but It looks wrong to start at that point of disadvantage.

[@crazychariotgrabber9085]

what was the weight differential?

[@MMAGUY13]

I got caught with this once if someone’s going for inverted triangle, take your elbows pin them to your side there’s no more inverted triangle he hast to get up under your elbow, not the leg that goes over the head. That leg that goes around the body he hast to get under the elbow. Keep that pinned there’s no joke. I never ever got caught with it again.

[@thorazine0076]

Very sneaky if you've never trained it before or you've never been inverted before you won't see it coming until it's locked in.

[@DGold109]

Hit the arm bar on the left arm easy too

[@dylanrickard738]

Should I even be a white belt, holy shit

[@MotherBroker]

0:53 Is it allowed to try and choke your opponent with your hands?

[@BennettSmolen]

It depends on the ruleset, but regardless it isn't a very effective choke as it leaves you vulnerable to armbar. In this instance I think he was more posting on my neck as opposed to actually trying to choke me

[@chuckgondos]

He’s clearly posting and probably wasn’t sure what to do to stand.

[@theinfjgoyim5508]

Decent reach advantage for sure. That looks like a pretty easy sub to just stand up. I mean I don't think you would even have to be strong or lift weights to get out of that one. The Rampage slam on Arona requires a shit ton of strength. The positioning here, even if he grabs the leg seems pretty easy. But this is a white belt match so pretty much anything will work haha.

[@crisantogarcia6646]

Anyone else not able to distinguish left from right in the heat of battle? Also Kimura was an option too.

[@BennettSmolen]

The kimura is a great option from the inverted triangle, and can lead to a sweep. Most of the time in training I'm unable to finish the choke, so that's what I'll go for

Seems like sandbagging. How is this guy not at least blue belt?

[@hostnik777]

What is the point of competing if you’re just following instructions from someone who knows 1000 times more than your competitor? What happens when the coach isn’t there? The whole point of martial arts is you against them, not you, and your coach, and your friends, and your family, and your Instagram butt buddies against them.

[@BennettSmolen]

Mad guy

[@ChrisSlowens]

Lmao… that might be the dumbest opinion I’ve ever heard

[@ace0425]

"He's a white belt"=he's a dude whose trainer didn't promote him to blue belt yet. It can be arbitrary and many coaches intentionally delay promotion so that their teams can win in tournaments. Not saying that's necessarily what happened here but something to be aware of

[@breakdancerQ]
