[@neilmezache7845]

Is this supposed to be some kinda message to Craig? “Hey Craig, we miss you. Come back please.”

[@Thunda1986]

Tyes competing in cji this year

[@jacobday3826]

Everyone is searching for Craig Jones at the moment. This is trying to capitalise on that.

[@izzate7]

The progression in techniques and tactics over the past 3 years has been insane.

[@Damster587]

I would tend to agree, except watching old reels of Chuck Norris in his prime makes me think were still rolling in his shadow.

Man, Ruotolo twins achieved so many things at the age of 18.

[@Haz2288]

People rarely discuss the DDS early stage leg defense. They take the weight off the leg completely and pull it out like a wet noodle.

[@CedarRoofsOnly]

Been grappling since 1988. National wrestling champion in Canada. I have never seen such a talent as the Ruotolo's pound for pound in my life. Wow, impressive.

[@SubFlow22]

I have wrestled my entire life, it's all my son and I do. That said, the uchi to set up the 2-on-1 drag was awesome. We're using it.

I remember watching this match on the Flo KZbin like two years ago. I guess they just, took it down and reuploaded it to boost their numbers? lol

[@downanddirtytruth]

Yep. That seems to be the new thing.

[@l0pster]

Craigs shape was INCREDIBLE in this match...stayed on him like a wet blanket.

[@CalebDiT]

Being heavier and larger makes that a bit easy to do, which is evident towards the end, when Craig was gassed. Even in slow motion with no power, he kept the advantage.

[@rockade2408]

Craig Jones Passive for so long, what a pussies

[@Mr2fiveone]

Against another phenom who is 22 years old and MUCH lighter.....Ruotolo brothers will be a future fighting force, not that they aren't already. Awesome match between 2 warriors.

Craig jones is the best most creative grappler that’s ever existed.

[@JPost55465]

Not one comment touching on the noticeable size advantage.. I genuinely think Tye deserved the W here.. absolute relentless pace

[@Spiritof_76]

Did you have the audio muted? They referred to the weight difference early in the coverage.

[@JustNo8808]

It was far less of a weight difference than one would guess looking at the two of them.

[@chris-pl1hr]

Graig's so strong

[@DangThaiChronicles]

Strength definitely played a crucial part. Tye would have had better positions.

[@Vscustomprinting]

I think its clear that craig respects the rutolos tho, no respect lost to lose, and alot of credit for tye for competing.

[@letsssgooo4618]

Was still funny back then but damn now that he’s not under that weirdo Danaher he’s really opened up and is the man

[@HoboGardenerBen]

Man, if I wasn't old and worried about the health of my joints I would get into grappling because it's starting to make sense after watching hundreds of videos over some years. I still only have the most basic concepts to explore, like redirecting forces, but it would be fun. I am just not willing to damage my joints to explore that interest. Kinda sucks, but I still choose not hurting them.

[@ajmjl9102]

If your safely training your joints will be fine tap early and often

[@errgo2713]

Look into gyms with seniors-only classes. There are some out there (and they need members to keep those sessions going). You can still learn techniques without going HAM and still gain the health benefits of regular training.

[@HoboGardenerBen]

Thanks guys, I'll look into that. I'm only 42, not a senior, but I feel my mortality and increasing fragility so I am cautious, it's weird. Other older people would understand and not go hard, that sounds nice. And I have no pride issue with tapping, our joints are inherently fragile and hard to fix. I like walking without discomfort so I don't want my interest in grappling dynamics to ruin that. I appreciate the encouragement and ideas, the pot is fully on the back burner now, thanks :)

[@ajmjl9102]

@@HoboGardenerBen i know people In mid 60s who are white belts it’s definitely not too late the majority or older guys who have injuries are because of they were idiots or competitors when they were younger. Train often but don’t overtrain and rest properly. Remember you don’t have to train with everyone and can refuse shitty training partners. Leave your ego at the door if you want to stay healthy.

[@HoboGardenerBen]

@@ajmjl9102 That is all very good advice, I appreciate it. I'm traveling right now so I couldn't go deep with any particular gym. But I could certainly take my first class or two. Thanks again for the good vibes :)

[@erdngtn9942]

Ya think this is the adcc check for Craig? Wins and goes, loses and doesn’t?

[@rbookstaber]

This is a great match, and even then it is boring for all but the aficionado. I don't think this is going to become a big spectator sport.

[@JC.Bailey]

God bless Craig

[@Dolph-fe2ks]

The no points for takedowns thing is lamer than a dude who refused to tap on a heelhook.

All because your on top doesn’t mean anything giving him Graig the win because he is on top is crazy

[@Rooxie973]

Gravity always wins. Top typically has more control and uses less energy

[@Gonzas77]

get control because you are just bigger but dont do anything shouldnt be a win... doesn't loock like a win because it shouldnt be

How the hell does he get a passivity on top? He’s crushing him. Had past his guard multiple times. Tye is just throwing bs against the wall trying to stand up and Craig is smashing him. Flo’s rule set is weird. I’m sure Craig didn’t even know the rule set tho haha. Nose beer time.
