Working with wrestlers will 100% improve one's nogi and takedown defence, however if they are rolling in gi for some reason, it's kinda pointless, because you can get those grips easily.

@@justafloridamanfromthe75thRR Yes, it's about nogi.. Gi is a different game..

Of course, if you go against sitters it makes takedowns a novelty.

I'm a big believer that it is essential to combine wrestling techniques into your submission grappling game (forgive my Prof. Danaher's impression). In my case, Judo and Wrestling helps me excel in that; I just took up BJJ a year ago and I'm really enjoying it thus far. Really looking to solidify my grappling game as there's still a long way to go.

Super facts

Gordon sloths his way while on his bum, with his advances slapped away at for the better part of 20 minutes, which then takes a turn in favour of Gordon when he wrestles-up from a successful gripping exchange which J'den tried to run from. Gordon ends up belly-to-back from standing, then mat returns his opponent by draping his body to one side of his rear bodylock. Subsequently, Gordon takes the back of his opponent by using the power-half Nelson, which he recently has gained an affinity for. He straightjackets him in addition to a body triangle, then taps J'den with one arm.

gordon wins bjj. Jaden murders him in wrestling Kinda pointless init

@@REXAZOR Incorrect, let me fix that Cox wins in wrestling. Gordon *murders him in BJJ

@@AguyR1401 You described the Pat Downey match exactly how it went haha. But Gordon wanted to exhaust Downey. If he wanted to submit Cox as fast as possible, whenever Cox would get in any entanglement on the ground, the match would be over.

@@justafloridamanfromthe75thRR Have you seen Pat Downey vs Gordon? Downey won within like a minute. Cox would murder Gordon in wrestling

Nah, not necessarily. You can sit guard, and that neutralizes some of the disadvantages of not being a wrestler.

@@anonymousreviewer169 with his movement laterally I think he’d be a holy terror of a guard passer though. Leg drags, knee cuts, and float passes would be second nature for him.

You fancy him dont you

May be wise to go with a good shotgun mic too because the collar mic will get moved around and catch a lot of noise while they are demonstrating moves. Best solution might be a combination of both

And as a J’Den Cox fan, I’m surprised at how I’m appreciating Gordon’s input. Coming from the Wrestling Camp … I’m like “this dude” … but he really reflects the best of John Danaher’s teaching on life (starting to go MindSmash here🤦🏻‍♂️) ..

No one cares if you getting ready to leave

Ok white belt

@@TheCrystalbrite sorry master red belt

Soo much hate for someone who is only trying to improve his game,, that's very good for you and keep learning, for the other rats find somewhere else tho talk trash bitches

he doesn't show any reaction at all

He’s really looking like he’s about to go in cardiac arrest & is fighting for his life to breath. Needs to lay of the off the gear for ever, for his own good… before it’s to late

I thought so too! Was very confused, it's like saying "best boxer moves again striker"...

Got taken down by Nickal and Downey

It would be Usman vs Burns: Usman will have the initial advantage; once on the mat, Burns will have the advantage. While standing, as an elite wrestler, Usman has a 3-D view of things. He knows instinctively how to find the weakest gravity/balancing point of another person he has hold of & trip him or take him down by force/momentum. Once on the mat, in a mostly 2-D situation, however, Burns's next level BJJ means he'd find a way to outmaneuver even the superior wrestler Usman. BTW, that was why Usman declined to jump on top of Burns, when he lightly knocked Burns to the mat. He simply told Burns to get up. D1 wrestler Michael Chandler, on the other hand, made the wrong decision to jump onto of a next-level BJJ Charles Oliveira. Yes, Chandler hurt Charles by knocking him down. But on the mat, even dazed, Oliveira was able to much more easily outmaneuver the D1 wrestler Chandler, who is very compact and strong. Essentially, through that bad decision to jump on top of a next level BJJ, Chandler gave Oliveira time to recover. That Oliveira wasn't able to find Chandler's neck or arm was of secondary importance. It's the recovery from Chandler's hard punch that was most important for the BJJ guy Oliveira. If Chandler had thought it through, before the fight (in terms of what to do or not to do, in X, Y, or Z situation), he, too, would have done what Usman did: just tell Oliveira, who is the superior BJJ guy, to "get up." He either got up immediately (& still be dazed from the knockdown) or (if he refused to get up, by delaying) the referee would've stopped the fight for TKO reason.

Bro, you just used an irrelevant analogy to his question tho

@@paulocarre1 Of course, bro, you're the pro. Whatever you say, bro! You one-liners are way too deep! lol Anyway, as I said, Usman IS an elite wrestler, as is J'den Cox. Gordon Ryan is an elite grappler, as is Burns. Standing, J'den has the edge; on the ground, Gordon has the edge. That is NOT multi-variable calculus; don't pretend to be too smart for your own good. (Hypothesizing how an elite WRESTLER is gonna compete against ground specialist, ON THE MAT, is the IRRELEVANT wondering to start with: of course the elite grappler/BJJ guy, like Gordon Ryan, is going to submit the elite wrestler, like J'den Cox. Why the fuck wonder about it? If an elite wrestler could out maneuver an elite BJJ specialist, rolling on the ground, why the fuck are there schools for BJJ specialists? Again, this is not multi-variable calculus, bro. It's 2nd grade flow charts...)

Because he isnt a world champion calibre wrestler like j'den cox

@@SKgyebaek Cause its MMA and he is nearly 45 yrs old to boot lol wrestlers lose explosion by time they are 35/36 hence why u never see any wrestlers win medals at that age and maia is a Jitz base

@@REXAZOR except Mijain Lopez

@@stiflerpato greco is different, there are no shots to the legs, plus Mijain is at the heavyiest weight class, where speed is not the biggest factor.

@@ramirospinelli6453 ohh i didn’t know, thank you brother!!

Meh there are bunch of other boxers who's styles would translate better to mma. Ali, foreman, roy jones, lennox

Lol but bjj guys ain’t afraid of boxers like y’all lol y’all swing like you can’t fight

In your DM's

@@justafloridamanfromthe75thRR The only one in my DM is your mom.

@@TheCrystalbrite dude is that true??

Oh you mean the guy who beat him 4 years ago when he was doing his first adcc ever and was nowhere near as good? The guy who has been dodging his offers to fight ever since by trying to price himself out? Yeah you’re right

@@pdsm1552 I'm mean the guy who beat him twice

and you are gay

Its honnestly getting super annoying that bjj as a sport is trying to monopolize all things grappling. Bjj's main invention is the guard. Alot of submissions come from judo, and leg locks are mostly catch wrestling, with both sports obviously focusing heavily on throws and leg attacks respectively. No gi is mma grappling, and everyone acts like its solely Brazilian jujitsu.

@@ericcomstock2249 ….. or those who are part of the Gracie Cult that take it to the next level.

It’s pretty objective as to why. BJJ practitioners win the most in the most prestigious and competitive Submission Fighting tournaments and matches. ADCC and NAGA are not bjj tournaments.
