Imagine your friend turns around and shakes his ass in the middle of a bjj match and you call his opponent a "fruit loop" for kicking him lmao

[@thaistomp]

craziest shit ever...

[@thaistomp]

@Always Working he was the boyfriend of the guy shaking his ass....

[@connorObye]

At the time I thought it was Donkey guard.

[@LNMarls]

@Always Working what's great is when he first started talking his voice was loud and it's like he purposefully softened it as he says "fruit loop", only to sound like an even bigger fruit; a fruitcake.

[@fulchy90]

There was nothing wrong with what the guy did, you’re not allowed to kick lmao

[@ColoradoBengal]

I really don't understand how someone could train for hours and hours for a competition...and not spend a few minutes reading the rule book. Derp.

[@fullsend5437]

Pretty sure they all know the fucking rules bro 😂😂😂 obviously they just reacted in the moment

[@edgarramos1499]

It's hard to understand, truth is in most situations they know the rules but their instincts kick on while in the heat of the moment. Some of these guys practice BJJ for years or even decades, often 5 to 6 hours a day or longer. They do the same drills over and over, it's constant repetition. The purpose of such training is so that when a split seconds determines who gets the advantage, a fighter does not even have to think, his body will just instinctively react. From certain positions their body goes on auto pilot and it just does what they have rehearsed their whole lives. Its like jabbing at your face with out warning but telling you there is rule that you can't flinch when it happens. Even if you know the rule, odds are you will flinch.

How do you defend at 5:18 if you can't slam.. it should be illegal to hold on.

[@icarusbbqwings1735]

This will sound like a pretty meh answer but you don't let yourself get put into that position in the first place and he should not have stood up. On the ground he at least had a chance to wiggle out before the triangle was locked in. When he stood up he had zero chance at all of an escape.

[@mmaloser666]

You should only fully stand if you know the quicker way out. I don't understand why people stand though, especially since majority end up slamming. If you have a triangle locked in, work the ground defense first imo. And it shouldn't be illegal to hold, the holder is the one attempting a submission. If your defense sucks, then don't try and stand with a guy attempting a triangle on you.

[@icarusbbqwings1735]

[@HelloJapan05]

correct no toe holds or knee bars until you're a brown belt and no heel hooks allowed at all in BJJ

[@quasarr6176]

Sorry, HelloJapan, but it's in IBJJF matches that it is not allowed. It is in BJJ.

[@mxtf716]

Quasarr actually since most BJJ matches follow some form of IBJJF rules, it's generally considered that most leg stuff is disallowed. No gi grappling/ BJJ allows heel hooks/ all leg stuff

[@quasarr6176]

I think you misunderstood me. Getting DQ'd because you did something leglocky that ist forbidden, you done fucked up. You need to know the rule format in which you compete but the word "rule format" is crucial here. These are restrictive rules they place on BJJ to make it more safe to compete but they still restrict something. So in my opinion (emphasising this) its not correct no leglocks in BJJ. It's in IBJJF matches if you know what I am getting at.

[@casonriley9958]

[@kennybush6731]

One of the worst things to happen in martial arts was the boorish behavior that BJJ-style fighting and grappling tournaments allow. No respect for the art or for the tournament or for fellow competitors. Competitors with zero bearing should simply be suspended from or banned from such and future tournaments, as to not shine such a disgraceful light on the sport

@@sumsolution5113 because an entire generation of BJJ players have been taught that leglocks are a gimmick, ruin your guard passing, give up top position, don't work, are too deadly for the ring, or are a cheap trick.

[@SwordTune]

I don't understand why they trust the rules to protect them if they're supposed to be skilled grapplers. Sure, the other guy got DQ'd, but you still got slammed and took more damage than you needed to.

[@SwordTune]

@@HessianLikeTheFabric No it's not. Expecting something to happen and letting something happen are two different things. You shouldn't expect someone to break the rules, but you can't blindly trust that the other guy will follow them. It's not rational to let yourself get harmed just because the rules say you're right.

[@SwordTune]

@@HessianLikeTheFabric What's the point in winning in a martial arts competition if you use skills that lose the fight? Yes, it's a sport, but the purpose of the competition is to create an environment where people can test their BJJ against others. One should not break the rules, but as martial artists you have a responsibility for your safety and should be ready when the rules are broken.

[@SwordTune]

@@HessianLikeTheFabric I think it can be strived for, at least. I hear a lot of complaints about the rules turning BJJ into a game. People want a safe sport that's also a martial art. The only way is to acknowledge the reality of danger even during the competition. My first style is weapons, specifically swordsmanship. Look at modern fencing and you'll see the same thing: Olympic fencing is about athletic speed, and almost none of them are competent swordsmen (or swordswomen). Yet, I have been able to use historical military sabre cuts within sport fencing, and outside of the competitions you can still practice cuts with sharp blades on water bottles or rolled up mats, which can increase speed and accuracy for regular competitions anyway. Fusing the competition and martial arts side of any style is possible, I believe.

[@ElDarric]

Something that I never understood is that some tournament rule sets allow you to start a sub to transition or pass, but if you cinch it up its a DQ. If you KNOW that a submission is not allowed, why would it be an effective reversal if you aren't threatened by it. They also seem to be a lot less forgiving about the slams these days. It basically had to look like a powerbomb in my neck of the woods.

Where i did jiu jitsu slams were allowed, why are people getting DQ'd for it??

[@showtime1235]

10:45 Maybe you should’ve told him about that cuz clearly he doesn’t know... what a fucking great coach

[@kennybewley4420]

Ultimately competitor's need to be the one to read the rules. It's not the coach out on the mats fixing to rip someone's leg apart.

It's been awhile since we saw these compilations, although it's hard to find footages of these matches and putting em together, keep up with these videos, loving it.

[@spiritlevelup1036]

Many of these should be rematches/timeouts, not full DQs in my opinion.

[@stefanoviviani6064]

The title of this video should be "AJ AGAZARM COMPILATION"

[@collinferg]

Did that very last guy get DQ'd for celebrating?

[@xekind]

12:55 this one was the icing on the cake. White belt gets his first submission and is now ready for the UFC. Delicious!

[@blazingxflame]

He was so happy. I understand the dq I guess but like dang let the man celebrate, he would have done the same thing after getting the win anyways

4:24 that was a double leg take down theres no way he could have prevented the slam

[@Daugust77]

Yeah, and he jumped guard too. Bad stoppage

Poor guy at 2:30 kicked him from being scorpioned. Looked like a total accident trying to generate momentum to brake the hold :P

[@user-qw4ud5cj6j]

6:20 couple people in the crowd said “heel hook” he was DQ’d for reaping

[@TheTofA123]

Slams from closed guard should be legal. Either that, or you should have to open up when your opponent stands. Otherwise, it’s only hurting the usefulness of BJJ.

[@jerp5809]

Guy on the bottom should also be able to kick the top guy in the face

@Grady Whitman His comment hurt you didn't it? Well it's true.

[@kevinbeazy]

@Grady Whitman I’ve yet to see anyone get physically harmed in these tournaments. It’s weak.

[@iamalpharius9483]

@Grady Whitman seems like your bjj babys cant take a little old lateral drop without crying about it. Let wrestlers use their full range of throws and nelson locks and it would be over before it starts. Play by our rules. Im not even allowed to crank the knee over on any leg rides because the poorly conditioned and rule heavy BJJ babys dont like it. Get a guy thats been wrestling since they were a kid against some purple belt or brown belt with submission only, all throws, full cranks on nelsons and chicken wings/elbow knots and see how you talk then.....only submission allowed is crying and screaming Uncle. Lmao

Nice white belt slammage at the English Open. With the amount of white belt slams you'd think competitors might get briefed about it explicitly in future

[@finny1694]

Poor guy at 9:05. Seems like a legit good dude and good competitor just didn’t know lol

[@BearlyAGrappler]

Also the ref called it a kneebar, even though it was not a leg lock at all. Obviously a banana split. So unfair.

[@babo8764]

@@BearlyAGrappler This was an electric chair. Banana split is horizontal. Electric chair is vertical.
