Garry Tonon vs DJ Jackson Superfight ADCC America New York Nationals

[@tomsmith4252]

can't wait until submission only competitions take over

[@fartsare2023]

They're starting to. People are itching for EBI and

[@fartsare2023]

more metamoris matches.

[@Agbahizzal]

+Tom Smith I get what you are saying, but in a self defense situation, I believe higher level wrestling is better than higher level jiu jitsu.

[@danieldunn4769]

um high-level either is more than sufficient lol

[@Agbahizzal]

+daniel dunn I think i would rather be able to throw anybody than break anything I grab is what i meant.

[@hughmungus8508]

shoes on the mats... anyone else cringe?

[@twyztedsteel81]

I cringed more at the condition of those mats (probably because of frequent shoes).

[@streetziztalkinradioshow9384]

DJ is undefeated against, Garry Tonen, Craig Jones, and three times against Gordon Ryan. He needs his flowers

[@ticosexy22]

Nice both guys, garry is a wizard and dj is a maul

[@christophertaylor3150]

I enjoyed watching the match. Thanks for posting.

[@lordphilmortal8118]

DJ had dominant control damn near every minute of the match. Only thing was I'm not too sure if these guy's weighed close to the same....DJ's head alone weighed as much as Tonon's body

[@juntjoonunya9216]

Then he must be built like a bowling ball

[@berimbolo010]

@Jake that leglovk was no wear near lo ked in tho. Tonon sckriders are something else

[@vobser2164]

The sport is coming along well when you look back.

[@mariojuana]

I guess I will comment, thanks jake for this footage, wow

[@elmoblatch9787]

No, don't comment.

[@superdeath1997]

you guys are great

[@Darksagan]

nice to see a brotha in the mix.lol

[@Malouco]

DarkSagan killer in the mix. One of the best wrestlers turned bjj.

[@lujitsu1251]

Why. Are you a racist?

[@AL-jv7jf]

Way to go DJ!!!

[@CJfunctional]

Good match

[@aarongonzalez2879]

Great fight to both. Garry seemed like he wasn't pushing his agenda like he normally does. May be because DJ defense was just impenetrable but I feel like he fatigued out

[@andresviveros3994]

Dj has good top pressure

[@kenpringle563]

So...who "won"?? Or was there a "winner"?

[@nono-mk7jg]

who won?

[@hugoviana6801]

Garry Tonon have a berimbolo good a lot. He win the EBI, championship of the Eddie Bravo.

[@davdiaz24]

meh

[@adamtownsend7829]

One of the few African American high level grapplers out there..needs to be more.

[@mdidris4414]

As a black guy I can say that the reason why many of us don't get into it is because we just don't like the intimacy of grappling. I didn't like it when I first started but eventually got used to it. Also black guys are generally not very flexible, which is an advantage for guard retention and being able to fight off submissions.

[@lujitsu1251]

Adam Townsend why does there need to be more? Are you virtue signaling or are you a racist?

[@adamtownsend7829]

Lu Jitsu i would like to see the black community embrace Jui Jitsu like it has boxing..

[@lujitsu1251]

Why? Who cares what blacks, or whites "embrace"? I hate the idea that everything has to be along racial boundaries. How about we hope the USA embraces it, or Ireland, or fill in the country. What you are embarking on, is racism.

[@lujitsu1251]

Dan Idris what the hell does someone’s color have to do with this? I know the majority of people I know that don’t go to jiu or wrestling is because of this but why the “us” “them” here? Why does every thing have to be along racial lines?

[@georgeburkhardt5632]

good match but gary was trying o finish n dj was happy to survive

[@LikeMike23dUNK]

WHY IS THE REF WEARING SHOES ON THE FUCKING MAT CARALHO???

[@henrytaff8067]

DJ so strong, Tonnon so technical. Tonnon like to frustrate opponents first to keep them guessing then goes In for da kill

[@timhallas4275]

Somebody forgot to tell the ref where the camera is

[@fabiulousfabiola]

is the ref really wearing sneakers on the mat???? so disrespectful smh

[@John2corner]

Garry was dominated in this fight period. If he was truly better than DJ, he could have leglokced him no matter how. Stop making excuses saying oh submission only oh he just trying to pass guards. WTF? Jiu jitsu is first and foremost about getting better positions every fk single time. Garry could't do shit against DJ lying on the bottom all day. Garry is good but DJ is better than him.

[@Malouco]

John2corner I won't say DJ is better but I will say DJ is better grappler.

[@atromos]

But he did leg lock him.

[@andresviveros3994]

Dj has beaten Craig Jones too

[@btsaucedo1]

.... and the winner is DJ "Dry Humper" Jackson!

[@dboardjr8873]

This killed me...Good one

[@MichaelPecero]

absolutely zero submission attempts from Jackson....Gary is way better than that guy. DJ could have won me over as a fan If he did some jiu jitsu in there

[@OdinsHallsBrazilianJiuJitsu]

Michael Pecero what are you saying? DJ takes him down at will and controls him for 10 minutes. And how many times has he beaten him? Why does better at jiu jitsu have to mean tapping? What about the the jiu jitsu that says someone can take a guy down, pass, and hammer fist him to death?

[@MichaelPecero]

You talking MMA, street fight, or Jiu jitsu match? In jiu jitsu, which what we are watching is, the goal is to tap the opponent. There are many different types of submissions and variations. Just like in boxing there are many different types of punches and counter variations. The problem is entering into a match/fight and not attempt to actually defeat your opponent. Let me go into a boxing match and not throw any punches. It sounds totally stupid. Now I do understand that rules are rules and DJ did win the match on points. That only raises the point how flawed and possibly outdated the rule system has become. No boxer can win a fight without throwing a single punch. It don't matter if he never got touched. The fighter who is attempting to defeat his opponent is the winner. It's not hard to understand. Now if this was on the street and DJ did in fact hammerfist him to death while Gary was reaching for the feet the entire time I'd be saying Gary's a fucking idiot.

[@yasinpatel12345]

he was keeping good pressure and decent positions. Not good enough fully nullify Gary's defenses, but he was doing 'jiu jitsu'. Passing guard and keeping Garry on the defensive for most the match is not a bad thing.

[@John2corner]

Michael Pecero do you think tapping Garry is easy to do? Dj was doing great and doing what he can do best to beat a very high lvl guy who is very hard to sub.

[@Malouco]

tyrlegend people say stupid shit to fan boy over their guy. I like Garry but DJ controlled him like a baby.

[@dallasgangsta187]

Dj blows

[@hanksaskitzo178]

Ok so you can beat tonon?

[@lylewalker5681]

+dallasgangsta187 You sound like a badass

[@alexanders5801]

people always going to hate. good job DJ and good job Tonen

[@salamalmosawi8730]

This is top level grappling. When 2 world class guys like these go out there is it ALL ABOUT THE SMALL INCHES YOU CAN MAKE. Great work both guys

[@TheJoeur]

Really good match.. Osss

[@razilla89]

why is dj body 80% head?

[@alondracastellanos8694]

When you acknowledge that Tonen is a talented person whom by the way is nearly impossible to submit, your only option is to try to control the guy.

[@alondracastellanos8694]

So don't hate. That's what I would do if I was put up against G Tone

[@alondracastellanos8694]

*Tonon , sorry

[@vincespell]

[@berimbolo010]

🥱🥱🥱🥱 that boy lost fair and square

[@thiagoniemeyer6164]

I don´t understand all the hate towards DJ. I´m brazilian and I´ve been doing BJJ on and off since 1994 (just recently got my black belt), but I don't compete since I was a purple belt. I see this more as a classic "guardeiro x passador" match of styles. Great fight. I guess people don´t realize how difficult it is to fight someone like DJ. Of course, Tonon is a genius, but you can´t always win. Like boxing, jiu-jitsu has different styles and matches make fights. Cheers! :-)

[@ericlebron3097]

Thiago was dy

[@jordanryder9383]

People hate DJ because he's on team Lloyd Irving, a coach who shielded rapists on his team. Also I believe DJ has a statutory rape charge in Iowa. Has nothing to do with his grappling.

Shame he didn't fight like that on A Team. Would be more fun to watch.

[@Malouco]

I like this DJ Jackson.

[@ericseo8252]

i have a feeling that dj may become the upgraded version of galvao in the future. Just my feeling.

[@fatalcheckmate187]

wow like dj totally owned garry tono, didnt see that one comming.

[@myrongaines5542]

I wouldn't agree, dj hung on and defended Gary's tough half guard and played for points and position.

[@cypresspuz]

Dj sucks ass

[@rs4race]

Did DJ win? Looked like it to me, but cutoff before the ref could raise a hand.

[@bobbyleendo8282]

DJ couldn’t pass Gary’s guard or even attempt a submission. His only option was to try to bulldog his way into something that was just not happening.

[@vincespell]

Well, that's doesn't say much for Tonen. If DJ couldn't pass his guard or didn't try any submission, then what was Gary's problem? how come Gary couldn't get past a staller? In fact DJ beats most of the people he fights by stopping them from mounting any offense. DJ stops you from doing anything.

[@TheTaoofEternalWar]

So when did DJ score a point? He never even attempted a submission. Garry at least managed to throw up a few things even though his opponent's only objective was to lay on top of him.

[@mosestoliver4068]

He scored 2 or 3 takedowns

[@aimempire7120]

Everyone complaining in the comments must not realize if punches were involved DJ would be landing punches from a lot of those positions and win in a real fight or mma fight. So Thats really what matters: position before submission. Stop whining.

[@indio2dr]

Why would anyone be worried about punches in a grappling contest? wtf.

[@elrith1]

Why did so many big guys spend their time in half guard? Even during EBI6 absolute DJ and other big dudes did this. They must love half guard???

[@cecilevans9247]

Study 10th Planet a bit. It best illustrates that two legs against one can be quite effective at getting the sweep or taking the back.

[@elrith1]

***** i feel like lucas leite has a better system in play when it comes to half guard and 2 on 1 with the legs. The lockdown is a little boring and I refuse to play rubber guard because I favor my knees.

[@juntjoonunya9216]

Well wtf won?

[@theomega616]

Tonon by toe hold

[@TissDiss]

Well that sucked.

[@Malouco]

SugarButt I liked it. A lot. Controlling Gary so hard to do,

[@theJlangdon34]

Then don't watch. There is a lot going on in this match you don't understand. Get woke🤐

[@goldmouthglobal1343]

Dj is a monster!

[@Chrisrico1]

Good example of why people are moving away from point competition. Not much BJJ going on there, just good strategy to win a match.

[@manikvai7853]

as.

[@BestWayKilla]

If there wasn't much BJJ going on there, why couldn't Garry do anything? Controlling the opponent is part of BJJ. If you can't do anything about it, you got outgrappled, plain and simple.

[@TheSigmaWolves]

BestWayKilla ooooo! you faced him 😮. people don't wanna see tonon get handled

[@BestWayKilla]

It's happened. He's a very good grappler, one of the best on the sub-only circuit, but up against the cream of the crop, he's really punching up, so to speak. Lucas Lepri really soundly handled him at ADCC, and that's what I would consider to be a good indicator of the divide between Tonon and the truly elite.

[@Madmac79]

I don't see much Bjj in submission only ruleset either to be honest. People conceding bad positions, buttscooting, caring for stand up even less than in Ibjjf.. I mean at this point I'd rather see a point system which simulate and rewards a positional hierarchy, for how flawed it could be. If you want to see true Bjj look at Bjj fighters in MMA like Maia.

[@MrKeeper06]

DJ Jackson kinda looks like Pablo Sandoval

[@kirillkolonin4321]

No submission? Match already sucks

[@crakface]

If the average man controlled a bjj black belt in the street we'd say, why didnt he use jiujitsu and escape? In tournament. Hes controlling him because he cant sub lol.. But why didnt he escape?

[@ddg-fi5bp]

CRAKFACE Garry did. Try to be heavy and not get swept the whole match is not control lol

[@guerrilla1044]

Sport DJJ is ridiculous that looks more like prison rape than a super fight, you've got to do something about that bottom boy scoot butfu jiu-jitsu
