This video should be titled “Craig Jones let’s Jason Nolf out of several submissions”

[@schenksteven1]

HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! It could just as easily be titled, "Jason Nolf lets Craig Jones out of several pinning combinations!" The video is unfortunately titled... clearly they are not wreslting (ie using a wrestling rule set) but rather rolling/grappling (using a BJJ rule set). Even more clearly, they are not competing, but having fun.

[@jimshaffer6833]

It is training. In that you put yourself in positions to learn how to fight in those positions. If you only do what you are good at you do not improve. PSU wrestling philosophy 101.

[@jamyewalker8986]

Literally came here to say this

[@nstv23]

It would make all the tough wrestler cry 😂

[@certifiedredditgenius]

@@schenksteven1 100%, its flow grappling. Not going for either subs or pins but rather experimenting with different things instead of trying to finish the match. Its great for learning scrambles and such

[@abhorrentillusions]

I know I say this every time, but I feel like I learn so much in these videos Just watching the technical and smooth transitions, positions, and the submission choices. Especially from a defensive and counter standpoint. I used to be like “you can’t get decent from only watching KZbin videos,” but now I’m like “I’m definitely getting better watching this channels videos” hail the B team!

[@770MASTER]

I agree I feel like watching these video helps to be more patient in jujitsu

[@MurryRothbeard]

Helping me too

[@abhorrentillusions]

@@770MASTER absolutely. Ii definitely have appreciated seeing the variety of ways in which the solution develops while watching these videos. We all tend to have our go to methods, but being able to have a variety and seeing the opportunities for them has almost been like An “ahhhhh *exhale” as I see possibilities and variety as opposed to the “of it gets to this point you are sol” watching these videos gives me comfort again in the limitedness possibilities of grappling.

[@PeterJames143]

I agree. sometimes you see a move in a rolling video and you feel like you can pull it off, and you do pull it off repeatedly, and sometimes you pay $250 for a gordon ryan mount escape series and you end up with no real improvement to your game.

I can’t believe I missed the first second of when you upload this. Jason Nolf is such a beast. His creativity with his wrestling is insane.

[@CountfilmsTV]

You legend!

[@thomaspaine5686]

Do not know why people compare wrestling to jiu jitsu. Nolf would kill Jones in a wrestling match and Jones would kill Nolf in jiu jitsu. These arts are similar but not comparable.

[@tichtran8792]

The closet to both amateur wrestling and bjj would be catch wrestling.

[@rosscostuart3409]

@thomaspaine5686in-person? You're a special kinda moron

[@certifiedredditgenius]

Who's comparing wrestling to Jiu Jitsu? They are learning from each other. Nolf is learning sweeps and how to defend subs while Jones is learning wrestling. You learn from the best

[@mashpatayters]

Everytime Nolf was getting bumped off by a sweep he was able to recover quickly just shows how good he really is

[@sugarsean93]

[@CountfilmsTV]

Thx you legend

[@hermanmelville3871]

Craig is approaching Wardzinski levels of butterfly filthiness.

[@DrewDarce]

100%. The amount of stuff Craig has become super high level with in the past year or two is pretty insane. He hasn't had a ton of matches in the past year, but he's had a ton of rolling footage posted. And he's doing all types of stuff in them that he wasn't doing all the time in competition before. It'll be really fun to watch him break some of this stuff out on the big stages.

[@alexanderturl]

So good at effortlessly elevating his opponent.

[@joshuaroun14]

Adam is amazing with the butterfly guard, but Craig polished it enough from learned with Danaher. I would say Danaher knows it more and teaches it better than Adam. The man literally goes home and studies footage all day creating new ideas and breaking down techniques to its core. I would say Craig can easily sweep Adam.

[@hermanmelville3871]

@@joshuaroun14 having rolled a bunch with Adam I’d say that he probably is still at a higher level with the hook sweeps than Craig, and is going to have an easier time shutting it down given his knowledge of the position. That being said it’d be fun as hell to watch as I’m a massive fan of both.

[@joshuaroun14]

@@hermanmelville3871 I would bet that Adam is barley scratching the surface of the mechanics theoretically and has created immense “muscle memory”, Danaher literally spends days and days studying and breaking down for his students to master it.

@@darron614 true. But I don’t know how many college wrestlers you have gone against but I have rolled against some all Americans this guy is a ncaa champion.

Lets be honest. Craig wasn't looking for a sub here, he just wanted to flow roll. Nolf was too, but he doesn't have submissions against someone like craig, so it would be very one sided if they both rolled to their potential

i think gordon ryan calls it a leg lever/lower leg shift or something along those lines, but the idea is if a opponent is pressuring into you if you can control their top hand, there’s nothing preventing you from sweeping them over. take note of the way craig switches his legs before the sweep and how he controls their top hand
