[@kommisar.]

@@HessianLikeTheFabric It sounds like you know a bit about chess and almost nothing about fighting.

[@kommisar.]

@@HessianLikeTheFabric The length of the match is irrelevant since a chess match can be won just as quickly as any fight, and while I understand the point about there being a lot more physicality involved in competitive fighting, there is still a lot of mental strategy and thinking involved. Understanding not only how to perform certain techniques but how to create reactions in your opponent is done in both chess and fighting, and that's where people are making the comparisons. Just like chess too, combat practitioners spend years trying to figure things out and come up with new things. Go watch some fight breakdowns.

[@kommisar.]

@@HessianLikeTheFabric I don't care about cheese or any of that stuff. I'm talking purely about tactics, strategy and technique. The same mental mechanics that go into chess apply to fighting. How do you think elite fighters are able to do stuff like kick each other in the head or sink in a choke? It's not all brute athleticism.

[@kommisar.]

@@HessianLikeTheFabric What makes you think the tactical decision making is nowhere near chess? Most fights (and just to be clear, we're talking about the competitive ones at a reasonable level) aren't decided on who is the better athlete. They're decided by who practiced better and made the better decisions. Ben Askren is on the receiving end of the fastest KO in UFC history solely because he decided to duck his head when that flying knee came at him. 9 other times he wouldn't have done that. Also, I didn't say I don't care about cheese because I discount its importance. I said that because I'm not really focusing that much on it when it comes to the speed at which chess matches can be decided. Go re-read the comments.

[@kommisar.]

@@HessianLikeTheFabric You're just arguing your own subjective opinion of how "complicated" you think the two activities are in comparison, which is not that great an argument. I don't really play chess so I'm not going to pretend I know much about it, but, like I said before, from your comments it sounds like you don't know much about fighting either. Both activities require tons of practice and study to become good at, but if you think there aren't tons of things going through fighters' and coaches' minds, you're wrong. Again, just go watch fight breakdown videos. Go watch Joe Rogan's podcast with John Danaher. It's like 15 minutes long where he breaks down a leg lock one of his guys used in a tournament, and that's just ONE move. There ARE tons of options when it comes to fighting, and it evolves over time. You may think that fighter only did one or two things to KO that opponent, but really he did a lot more than that. Speaking of your opinion on complicated, one thing that's different with fighting than it is with chess is that while moves may seem simple, basic or straightforward, there are actually levels of knowledge to them that a practitioner or student has to learn over time. Let me give you an example. In wrestling the double leg is pretty simple when you look at it, and there are only a handful of ways to finish it. Guys are shown it on their first day. However, there a TON of little details wrestlers learn or figure out about it over time that differentiates a novice wrestler and a world-class one. Often with these basic moves you learn them early on and then spend the rest of your career mastering them, and even then there are still vast skill differences. You can't tell me it's the same with chess.

Plus striking sparring you have to be way more careful, just going slightly to hard can easily hurt your opponent and piss them off.

[@staysafemartialarts]

Def some good points made and a great explanation. The only thing I would add as a precaution for Jake, and this is more so when you are out in the open. If you are sitting high on their thighs (again when not against a wall), this is considered stacking. Stacking is a great way to apply pressure to pass, HOWEVER it does set up numerous sweep options for the guy on the bottom without them having to move their hips back to make space. Just something to keep in mind. My advice would be to stack and create the pressure and look to pass off that right away. I also sent you a message on Instagram about meeting up for a collab so please let me know if ya saw it. Great video!

[@ArmchairViolence]

When they're stacked onto their shoulders there are a ton of sweep options. But the Throne should have them flat on their back which means they can't back roll. And the weight distribution means it should be hard for them to dummy sweep either. Maybe you can think of some, but I don't see many good sweep options. And I definitely have seen any materialize whenever I see this move used in pro MMA

[@staysafemartialarts]

@@ArmchairViolence ya i agree 100%. Like I said more of a precaution for if you don’t have the right amount of pressure/weight distribution. Great explanation though!! Been talking to Mike about coming out to collab/train with you all so hope to make that happen at some point

This adds specific technique to some concepts I've realized a while ago pertaining to why modern BJJ performs poorly against solid well rounded MMA. I devised some prototype grappling rulesets to favor MMA grappling beyond what normal BJJ does in response.

[@ArmchairViolence]

Have you seen Combat BJJ?

[@kommisar.]

Performs poorly? Wow, you don't know anything about the sport.

[@ArmchairViolence]

@@kommisar. No, he's mostly right. BJJ is essential to fighting MMA, but the current meta is such that submission artists don't do nearly as well as they've done in the past. Even world class grapplers like Oliviera and Burns are only succeeding because they now ALSO have world class striking. The average BJJ black belt that has no other experience would struggle to even beat many amateur MMA fighters. 20 years ago, this was not the case. BJJ used to be top-dog. Now, successful application of BJJ is almost the exception instead of the rule.

[@kommisar.]

@@ArmchairViolence No, you're just moving the goal posts. The OP said "modern BJJ performs poorly against well-rounded MMA", then you list two guys with good "modern BJJ" skills who perform well against said "well rounded MMA". There are actually quite a few guys who did very well on the BJJ competitive scene who also did well in MMA. I would say it depends on how an average BJJ belt was trained in determining how well he would do in amateur MMA. It depends on the school he came from. I would say guys with solid traditional, old-school basics would do well. Keep in mind most of the guys in MMA really aren't that good when it comes to BJJ, including some of the top-level guys.

[@ArmchairViolence]

@@kommisar. I don't think I really moved the goal posts. I said that a black belt with only BJJ would get stomped in MMA. Oliveira and Burns do well because they do a ton of things that are NOT BJJ. Most of their cage time is spent wrestling or striking. 20 years ago, you could win MMA fights by doing almost purely BJJ. If Oliveira and Burns purely did BJJ, they wouldn't be in the UFC, much less fighting for titles. It does definitely depend on the way that the BJJ practitioners are trained, but the old-school basics don't do that well either. The MMA metagame has had decades to figure out how to deal with BJJ basics, and they've done a good job. Some of the top guys are bad at BJJ because they don't need to be good at BJJ. They still win fights in MMA because MMA has evolved very far beyond traditional BJJ. It's a different game now. You can adapt a BJJ game to MMA, but trying to use a "normal" BJJ game in MMA means you will probably get stopped pretty fast. If you magically transported a prime Rickson Gracie to the present day (someone with AMAZING BJJ fundamentals), and put him in a high-level promotion, he would get obliterated by literally everyone in his division. And probably a lot of people below his division. Because the grappling metagame has moved way beyond regular BJJ, and his grappling game would no longer translate as well.

Fires show that despite their impracticality, they can be drawn and operated from a distance quickly during a tense situation. Also you don’t need to memorise emergency maps, they’re bright red and put in highly visible places for the very reason that people can find them easily in an emergency.
