Great sportsmanship

[@pninnan]

Craig has underrated stand up, but when it comes to a judge’s decision it’s not worth it to him to stand when getting taken down could lead to a judge seeing that as the defining factor. Because of this a lot of his matches end in guys just trying to stall him out from top

[@mezzi9736]

Happens a lot when they're scared. A lot of Gordon's fights are like that, as well - they just don't engage, too scared.

I love Craig to death but i mean, blaming Davi Ramos is easy. Craig has been attempting the exact same attack sequence and Davi defending it the exact same way succesfully. This is just a 20min loop of that. What was Ramos suppose to do? something different? I would have really hoped tactically something else would have been attempted....

[@tedclark7860]

Pass the guard, get mount, and finish with a triangle.

[@oldironsides4107]

Well shit Sean Brady shut down Craig’s game.

[@magnum-kj5ip]

What is he supposed to do? Pass guard lol

[@tylerharris3319]

Craig did nothing wrong, if his game plan was to work leg locks then that's fine. The problem is that Ramos did not even try to mount an offense of his own so that's completely on him. Craig shouldn't have to switch his game up just to give his opponent a chance to attack. Who would even do that?

[@palebluedot8733]

Why do they have to start by lying down???

[@crakface]

Time to work on better setups and counters for stalling. Neither guy did a damn thing

[@nintendogamer5472]

Davi is such a dynamic grappler, seeing him stall the whole time is disappointing.

[@gsp3428]

I know, what a waste, its better to compete and go out and try and win instead of not losing. Its a losers attitude. And Davi is a world class competitor.

​​@@kevinjohnson6549how is he supposed to do an 'offensive move'? He needs to get past the legs first, which is what he was trying to do the whole time, without getting his legs snatched. They were both doing the exact same thing. Craig could have just stood up and tried something else, Ramos had no choice but try to get past the legs, how the hell was he stalling, what was he meant to do, give up his leg and scramble and hope for the best? Bjj rules are dumb as shit. One guy can sit to guard and you have to give him your leg or you're stalling?

[@CollinODonnell94]

What a boring match. Ramos didn't attack at all and Craig just laid in bottom half and tried to muscle the leg and get under him the entire time. The running away was bad, but also, what is he supposed to do when the only engagement he's getting is for the other guy to attack the same leg in the same way over and over again? There was an interesting commentary on the need for understanding the ruleset for matches like these, but I think that the ruleset is still so game-able that it negates the real essence of what Jiu Jitsu was meant for in the first place which was self-defense. I'm totally game with keeping strikes and stuff out of BJJ, but the ruleset should be designed around rewarding the player who maintains the position that would be most valuable in an actual fight. Without a shift to something like that, all we will ever get is butt-scooting.

Worst ref ever

[@JesusTrombone]

The ref "I dunno any grappling. Stand them up"

[@maskrey]

People here complaining about Ramos not engaging, and then we have top BJJ guys like Ryan Hall and Kron Gracie goes to MMA and literally flop around like a dying fish. BJJ people have a very wrapped and entitled perspective of what is fighting and what is grappling. Disengaging is just as big of a part of grappling as engaging. Technical standup is one of the very first thing taught to a BJJ newcomer. Many MMA champions spend like 90% of their grappling training time for TDD and standup, including Volk who was trained by Craig Jones. The fact is in grappling, if you want to engage but can't keep your opponent engaged, you are ineffective.

[@thisisgettingold]

Judges decisions do not belong in martial arts and fight sports. I fucking hate that the winner of A FIGHT could be decided by anyone not in the fight.
