MA1 Challenge 2017 Finals - Craig Jones vs Lachlan Giles

[@anonymouse7095]

Commentary was gold.

[@Leumas34676]

Lachlan had me checking if the video was in 1.5 speed lmao

[@Precisionmagert]

Craig Jones is so creative with this leg entrances but this match in general so technical and quick. Has me rethinking my whole game..

I wish I could be that calm in a leg lock battle.

[@kallepikku4991]

7 minutes of leg locking, diving for submissions, athleticism and finally finish with a Head & Arm choke. Modern grappling has made a full circle back to it's catch wrestling origins.

[@imightdeletethislater3810]

Delusion at its finest. Both these guys started out as Gi Bjj players. Catch wrestling has no claim to their success AT ALL. And modern grappling having roots in catch wrestling? What about Judo and Japanese Jiu Jitsu? You know, actual grappling styles, not fake wrestling and rigged matches which is the origin of Catch? What about Modern Catch, where the best CACC competitor gets tapped by a 10th P guy thats not even in the top 100 No Gi competitors? You guys are literally a cult. Stop spreading misinformation.

[@Aaron-bd9sj]

@@imightdeletethislater3810 I think OP has a good point. No gi grappling isn't just mere jiu jitsu, it's become something quite different. I characterize it as submission wrestling or submission grappling but not jiu jitsu. Keenan also says more or less the same thing as OP but in a negative light: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZmbYZJqjedJsn7c

7 minutes of going for heel hooks and it ends by head and arm choke??

[@jeffsstt]

Brutal choke bro

That pass at 2.06 is slick. A mini windshield wiper done at a crazy space through a tiny gap. Really cool to see

[@ハリmakigawa]

牛逼 lachlan is so cool that he coached up such a great athlete

[@austinlance7206]

Leg lock madness. Heel hook hell. Old boy gets caught and just decided to head and arm choke to get out of it. It's so anti climactic it's beautiful.

[@mathiaskovendy7292]

It's almost as though people now forget there are other submissions during comp once it turns into leg hunting lol

[@kenwu7]

Austin Lance same thing when he fought leandro lo, he was after the legs non stop then finally went to Lo's back and RNC for the win

[@mixedmartialnutrition1746]

anti climactic? what a fuckin joke that was super slick

[@LOLLYPOPPE]

Not anti climatic at all, heel hooks are stupid this is a real submission

[@rlclark50]

Was at a Craig Jones seminar at 10th planet portland in 2019 and Craig taught this exact defense to outside heel hook from double outside ashi. Have been to some Lachlan seminars as well on the 50-50, 80-20, 90-10 position sequences, too. To initiate the defense, you take a c grip in their armpit (right hand if they attack your right leg) in their thumb on backside and drive down. At the same time, scoop grip under their hip and try to keep their hips off the floor. This prevents them from being able to finisb and attack from double outside ashi. The right hand c grip feeds through into an underhook, just as you see Craig do here. The position basically then becomes a body lock like passing position with a natural option for the head-and-arm choke. Good stuff, really recommend the cost of a Craig or Lachlan seminar if you have the chance.

[@hanniballectormd5569]

This was a very interesting match two of the best leg lockers in the game it's crazy how Craig can twist and spin his way into almost any attack!

[@MatrixJiuJitsu]

if graigs opponents are smart they analyze this match, there is probably nobody knowing his game better than lachlan.

[@josephpeat]

Excluding Ryan being like 3-0 against him

[@gutz9866]

Didn't Giles give craig his black belt?

[@matkofn7200]

@@gutz9866 yes

[@CoffeeTrav]

@josephpeat 99% of people who do BJJ will never even be good enough to grace a mat with Gordon Ryan so being 0-3 against him is still better than 99.9% of BJJ guys in history.

[@mathiaskovendy7292]

Touching the back of your neck with the arm closest to the opponent can create space

[@james.randorff]

I’ve found that patting my opponent forcefully several times causes them to magically release this submission. Works well for lots of others, too. I think I discovered a really powerful pressure point attack. Shhh… don’t tell anybody!

[@MatrixJiuJitsu]

btw how much weight did graig have on lachi?

[@WhtMike2006]

Mat Tricks this tournament was the same weight class. Believe it or not Craig and Giles are close in size. When they qualified for adcc last year they had a private match to see who would have to compete at 88kg. Craig drew the short end of the stick and was able to bulk up to about 86. Craig is bulking up significantly as of the past few months though. But at the time of this match they were close to the same size. Giles is shorter but dense.

[@MatrixJiuJitsu]

wtf thats sick. we´ll try to visit Lachlans Seminar in Stuttgart, unfortunately he couldn´t do another one during his stay in Germany.

[@John2corner]

@@WhtMike2006 Lachlan is not the same size with Craig lol Lachlan is not where close to 85 kg at best maybe he is 80 kg or a bit heavier. Craig walks around 94 kg and fights at that weight or sometimes fights at 88 kg.
