I think BJJ is a lot of fun. It's a great way to exercise and compete without getting punch in the face. That appeals to a lot of people, myself included.

[@robertmallory1877]

Of course Silat doesn't punch much to the face. They prefer body shots say a shovel hook to the lower ribs, extended knuckle strikes to the throat etc. Kill shots in other words and they work well against boxing which has devolved from it's effective bare knuckle days to todays glove in face. Man, even Tyson broke his hand hitting someone's head in a street fight. In the ring they wrap their hands before even putting on their gloves. Said gloves "enlarge" the hands so much you can block punches in a way that would be useless without gloves in the street!

[@AnonEMoose-mr8jm]

Its not that it isn't fun its that it isn't applicable to self-defense. BJJ will get you killed in the street. Sure if you want to use BJJ to lose weight and make friends, that's fine. But if you go to the ground in a street fight, you're going to have a bunch of dudes kick you in the head or worse. The philosophy that every fight goes to the ground might be true but the fights START with both combatants standing. The dojo/training gym is not the same place as the streets. The dojo has rules and is run by civilized well meaning people. The streets are full of savages that will kill you for the last $5 in your pocket. For that SIMPLE reason, I would ask anyone that trains in BJJ to take a look at boxing, karate, or traditional Ju-Jitsu. Round out your ground game and your grappling with locks, strikes, and throws like a real martial artist so you can be prepared when you step out your front door. The mindset of the martial artist is the mindset of the warrior. Always armed and prepared for combat but not seeking conflict. Remember that martial arts are first and foremost arts of war. They are there to maim and kill your opponent. Even the Marines get some training in jujitsu's powerful wrist and arm locks that can be pulled off from a standing position. Why don't the Marines learn BJJ?

What’s great though is like obviously, take someone who does MMA to a karate tournament or a BJJ tournament, and they’ll do alright, probably not as good as people trained in those specific arts, but it’s great to have a decent understanding of many situations, as street fighting tends to find.

I can definitely relate to the whole getting attached to your first martial art thing. I trained Isshin-Ryu for 12 or 13 years (though I haven't trained in about a decade). Why? Because when I was 6 I expressed an interest in karate and they taught Isshin-Ryu classes at the local YMCA, so my mom decided she'd take me there. If I were to get back into a striking discipline, I'm definitely biased towards Isshin-Ryu, though, unfortunately I no longer live where I grew up and it's not a popular style where I currently live (closest Isshin-Ryu dojo is like an hour away from me). I'm not very likely to get back into a striking discipline though, because I write code for a living and can't really afford the risk of a concussion. I also trained Judo for a bit when I was a teenager, and have considered getting back into grappling, but if I did, I'd probably go for BJJ as opposed to Judo this time around.

[@Genmaken-Hoshi]

4:25 "Jesse is a lot bigger than he looks in his videos".

Maybe he really should have done more of that ninja training with the French guy, there's some potential there. lol

A lot of the small points that people argue about are found to be rather insignificant when people actually just spar (friendly and safe, not a fight) and don't artificially dictate at what ranges the engagement occurs.

So, I'm a judoka. Been doing it for almost 20 years now, started when I was 8. A few years back, I started getting into training for MMA. Judo has given me a fantastic base for such a thing, and the sensei that I've had were teaching me judo from a WWII Army Air Force CQC perspective, which means that my thinking and methodologies have ended up different from a lot of grapplers. My jiu jitsu started out decent, but my striking was God awful (still not great, honestly). What I learned is that diversification came from Muay Thai because I already had a basis for clinching, and I could expand backwards from there. Fighting is an art, and to draw from only one well is to lose the value inherent to it. Everything has good techniques, and they're applicable across the gamet

​@@marco10832I guess he has the rare humility of a trained fighter. Whereas you are more like a social media (insert particular martial arts here) guy

[@TheLegranz]

I like the "mountain" description at the end. I like to think that mostly (if not all) martial arts are situational. In a real fight I don't think a SINGLE martial art would be the most effective. Throwing powerful kicks might be good if you manage to keep some distance but what happens if you get knocked down? Maybe a punch to the head or a kick in the leg might knock your balance off, then what do you do next? This is the part where I think BJJ would be most useful... or maybe if you're trying to avoid a direct fight you might do some acrobatics and use some capoeira moves. Idk man, I feel like every martial art is both useful and useless at the same time. It all depends on the situation (place, time, weather, size of opponent etc)

[@oldpurplebelt]

First thought - Warm-up? He's a purple belt 😂😂😂 Second thought - not wanting to go to the ground on a hard surface kind of proves his point. Suck it up and make it worse for him on the ground than you.

[@creationismsuperthesisguy]

Jesse is such a gifted and natural grappler, why he hate on groundfighting so much? One of us! One of us!

[@swedbp1]

Encamp went to the Gracie's in California and learned that Gracie jujitsu is still self defense based and focuses on defending against strikes. It's part of core curriculum and they often put on gloves during rolls to remind practitioners that one always must be aware of strikes.

[@theflamingone8729]

You only have to roll with a white belt to know you have to watch out for strikes.

[@Jimmywillliams]

I want to see a Gracie Jiu Jitsu purple belt go against karate guy

[@nionnemesis638]

The starting by Jesse - "Well well well" was so cool and villaineous! 🤣

[@joshbeambjj]

Hahahah yea loved that part, it was his idea too

[@frank8627-v8k]

"I am not a real fighter" - Jesse Enkamp. 8:43

[@outerlast]

the "i love swedish girls" shirts and "but you do bjj?" was gold lmao

[@ROCKY44]

Huge respect to Josh. I’m thinking he probably took some stick from BJJ colleagues, but he is super humble and this is a huge part of martial arts. Great fun video by two great guys. More power to you.

[@cobyskrilla119]

I see you're already employing your training with Jesse in your titles. xD Great vid. Jesse is such a humble Chad.

[@RafaFandos]

Really interesting to here about the Okinawan-Chinese connection towards ground fighting as nowadays most Chinese ground fighting martial arts point only to "dog style". Could be mistaken but did Jesse refer to this Chinese ground fighting style as ShíShù (or ShíJitsu) [ 实术 ]? I'd be really interested in knowing more as I'm trying to investigate on Chinese ground fighting! @KARATEbyJesse

[@misterkami2]

I think it was shown in one of his specials Karate Nerd in China, possibly under the name Fuzhou, dog boxing

[@mckendrick7672]

Pretty sure he said it in Japanese as "chijutsu" 「ちじゅつ」「地術」which would be "dìshù" in Mandarin or literally "Ground Techniques" in English.

[@ianoverseas]

Clever. Fell for the click-bait title and loved it.

[@G-Easton24]

I love how these guys are respecting each other and laughing at each others styles at the same time. This is the kind of camaraderie that all martial artists should have. This is how we all learn from each other. We all become better by showing this kind of respect for each others styles.

[@KBADWAY]

It is not the art that defines the practitioner…but rather the practitioner who defines his art.

[@musicallmylife]

This video was amazing, I watched from start to finish!

[@420champion4]

Oliver, get your shoes off the mat!

[@ReadtheBIBLE-f4g]

Ngl the bjj guy would've died if jesse was using full power

[@bravepills]

If Jesse put power in to them shots it was game over.

[@robertmallory1877]

Or if the gloves were literally off and any technique to any target was allowed. Of course Classic (not Brazillian) Jiu Jitsu and non sport aspects of Okinawan Karate have this and it is called Atemi-Waza. For a lot of that full power would not even be necessary!

[@CelloCavalcante]

Jesse is a Black Belt with a large experience, the BJJ guy, is just a purple belt who is just in the middle of the way to get his black belt, for sure Jesse has more time as a Karate black belt than the other guy in his entire career as a BJJ practitioner. If you understand that, we can not compare. If you would like to see with Fight is more effective 1 vs 1, just watch UFC 1, When we saw BJJ fighter smaller than every one winning the competition.

[@ReadtheBIBLE-f4g]

@@CelloCavalcante the bjj guy doesnt striking expererience and we can clearly see that jesse is very good at keeping distance and has lots of power so jesse could have just kicked the bjj guys liver so hard that it starts bleeding

[@CelloCavalcante]

@@ReadtheBIBLE-f4g sure, it is why I said that one is in another shelf than the other. The BJJ purple belt will learn how to be in the right distance, how to do the appropriate approach and how to properly take some one down , we can see, he is good doing guard, but he still having to learn more from core of Jiu-jítsu

[@elmeroromero]

Two skilled, humble humans sharing knowledge in genuine synergy - appreciate you both 🙏🏼

[@fantasticpyro]

"In a real fight there's no time limit" okay, in that logic in a real fight you're not going to fight on a soft mat😂

[@bryanfox6726]

... nor 15% strikes ...

[@JIUJITSUMAN22]

Why you don't visit the Valente brothers or Rorion Gracie ? they get a jiu-jitsu focused in self defense.

[@immortalwarrior2406]

It's good to see a humble bjj guy and him not being cultish🎉🎉🎉

[@bluepuppystudios3617]

I thought he was gonna be mean and aggressive and then I saw the bad acting and how much fun you two were having this is a warm welcoming environment

[@marioStortuga]

This is great, I'm 53 now I started Martial arts 33 years ago, I learned for many years TKO, BJJ then Karate and Judo. Later on in my life into MMA. I found that learning multiple styles made me a better all around person and found myself to be a better fighter. Now My two girls are in a similar path but I'm adding MMA to their earlier. They love it.

[@metalngames509]

I think people take Jesse too seriously. He has respect for every martial art and likes to make jokes. But he also knows that there is no true one size fits all art. Everything has a weakness. Including Karate.

[@ssjrose9641]

Great video! Karate and bjj, i'd say thats a good combination 😊
