Gracie Nationals 2015: Eddie Cummings vs Denny Prokopos

[@OnGuardBJJ]

It amazes me how little the commentators know about what's happening in the match.

[@Jmon45]

the 10th planet system lol ...DDS 4 life bitch

[@ivanmd90bjj]

outlawing body triangles? A D move? Are you kidding... how about people not even grapple...just talk it out from now on

[@this0is0me8]

I was puzzled too, whose mans is this lol

[@mikejohnston7628]

Been training hard for 6 years and still just a no stripe blue belt. Wish my learning curve wasn't so big. I wish I could be as good as these guys one day

[@crazyjames1233]

sit down...stand up back away...sit down...stand up back away....fascinating gameplan by Denny

[@goemon9378]

+crazyjames1233 all eddie has to do is sit there and Denny will get tired standing and sitting

[@rockofullr]

+crazyjames1233 One of the drawbacks of no points. You can't give penalties for not engaging.

[@MrMuslimGuy]

Osss!!! Good heart n effort Denny. Cant wait to see u back in the Yay Area brother. #10ThPlanetJJ

[@diosantana2659]

Ibrahim Talib no match for RGA Baby

[@MrMuslimGuy]

Someone please say something real........ lol

[@Dougalastyle]

Wow, that was amazing!

[@leinadmik55]

wonder why denny let eddie play the butterfly/leglockgame, instead of getting eddie in the full guard and rubber guard.

[@chaos_omega]

+dkim Because Eddie kept sitting down first.

[@ChiStriker]

+Chaos Omega Yeah, I think people prefer to stand against a leg locker, there is really no other choice. If Denny wanted to play guard I don't think Eddie would have a problem standing up because he would have an easier time grabbing legs to initiate his leg locks

[@Blkglssjw]

I think being on your knees against a leg locker is the best option.

[@EBHS230DE]

10planet system the most dominate in the no gi community? Maybe a stretch

[@jonascelentano9251]

+Steve haters gonna hate, just sayin

[@lisheltonanderson8645]

Jacob Lanier Don't think the commentators knew much anyway.

[@kneeblock]

Awesome win Eddie!

[@TheGraciefighter101]

eddie is the man

[@Maskenken]

Prokopos not trying to put Eddie on his back seems like a big mistake. Denny was just sitting into the butterfly, realizing that it was a bad position, then getting up, wasting time walking around. Controlling the ankle seems to be a strategy favored by other high level guard passers. Nice cool head and back escape, tho.

[@asdfkhieee]

Rip my ear drums. Headphones and constant drastic volume changes don't mix.

[@sandsmine]

they stopped leg locks in judo because damage is being done before any pain is felt

[@cockmaster69696969]

john sullivan i disagree, you can still roll with a hurt ankle or knee but tachiwaza is torture or even impossible with a leg injury. I think that's why they stopped it.

[@hendr6ix873]

9:50 Eddie covers his eyes. Nice technique

[@samuelemeryjiujitsu]

Outside ashi is coming back in 2024

[@goemon9378]

13:32 someone should tell that spectator to back up a little

[@eliazardelacruz1338]

What knee bar? 🤦‍♂️

[@SubFlow22]

Looked scared.

[@veiledallegory]

The commentators are obviously 10th Planet fans. Leg locks are the current rage in BJJ. The leg lock game is not very conducive to the self defense aspect of BJJ! The submission only tournaments were designed for a purpose, its all about marketing one particular system over another just like the UFC did for BJJ in the early days.

[@notschramm3461]

One guy called a knee bar submission and the other corrected him politely about how and why it was a heel hook. I think they balanced each other out considering the time when this took place.

[@candylord5363]

Cummings SUB Prokopos

[@Cornbreadddd]

Eddie Cummings has to be the most boring person to watch grapple.

[@michaelswann9849]

You forgot anout your matches

[@jordanchiaruttiniREALTOR]

No shit these guys are horrible announcers....
