This was also a year ago so I’d do advanced now.

Wrestling is a similar form of grappling, to say you’re inexperienced is not correct. You should be going up against purple belts as a rough equivalence.

No you sandbagged....it says in the tournament rules that any grappling experience including wrestling determines your division. You wrestled your whole life should of been in expert/advanced

Fragile ego

Awesome stuff man Always love to see D1 wrestlers come to jui jitsu

It would be over once one exposes the back to avoid the pin and gets choked

First time I intentionally went to my back, the Windows Runtime Error popped up in my vision.

this scramble was sick kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bsqmodRkxNrThHk.html

@@777Skeptic how’d you pull that off, I can’t even sleep on my back in my bed. If I roll over the second my back touches the sheets I bridge to the sky and turn over violently. I accidentally Gramby rolled off the bed once hitting a reversal.

@@ethan_erwin I know what you mean. Every time my alarm goes off I sprawl and face my phone before taking a shot at it.

what is d1 wrestler ?

Division 1

@@SermiFromAlbania In college sports there's a couple of different divisions. These are Division 1, Division 2, Division 3, NAIA, and JUCO. Division 1 has the most elite and top tier level of competition amongst all of these

So what you ought be wrestling too in bjj and it’s only 2 points, if you can’t sub someone who’s exclusively a wrestler or rather get subbed by them it’s kinda awkward

​@@leopers9225 i lost my main competitions not by 2 points but by 2 advantages. 2 points are significant.

why else do you dislike grappling industries ?

​@@theophilegimli4056 you're going to wait around for hours until you finally compete.

that ref was goofy he needs a lecture

@@dylonmullinsthats most comps though.

I was thinking the same thing. Guy was tapping for his life, you are starring at the ref...ref is just starring into space... what a moron.

Smashing comment. This is what respect is.

Props my friend

dude he wasn’t supposed to in your division period. don’t give him any props or anything like take.

@@bg-nz9yj sorry, but I disagree. His wrestling was very good, yes. But I’ve faced harder blue belts than him to be honest. I came very close to submitting him in a kimura early on in our match. I lost by like 2 or 3 points. Being his first ever bjj tournament with less than 6 months of submission experience, I think he was in the correct division. My teammate who got second is also a good wrestler and they had a very close match as well. All these people who weren’t even there are shitting on him. I rolled against him first hand and I can tell everyone he did nothing wrong. Props to him for coming out to compete and I was happy with my performance against him.

@@hithisisharris I've been training jiu jitsu for 8 years, and the collegiate wrestlers do very well in any division. Usually they are at the top of whatever belt they are in jiu jitsu. I'm a jiu jitsu guy turned wrestler, and I admit if you learn how to wrestle you'll dominate the jiu jitsu guys fairly easy. The real problem are guys that know jiu jitsu and can wrestle at least collegiate level. That's when you're a monster on the mat and everyone has that ah shit feel when they face them! If everyone was at least blue/purple and he has very low jiu jitsu experience (4 months), he's in the correct division. Now if everyone was a white belt, I would call him out. This is great experience for him and everyone involved though!

Exactly

Even you are bjj black belts, you can not take wreslter who have 2 years wrestling experience down😂.

Accurate comment: cope

he did the advanced division

@@armedjoy3045 ...which, judging from the footage, was full of beginner hobbyists which is to be expected in a low-tier, local no-gi competition lmao. This was a brutal sandbagging for sure.

No they were not beginner hobbiest when a purple belt submitted a d1 wrestler turned BJJ with a triangle. You obviously don’t know jack

Competitors aren't hobbyist

Yup. BJJ prides itself on not being strength dependent. It's more about technique. Telling a blue belt that they're strong is more of an insult than a compliment.

@@SHlTHEADJOEwhich sometimes gets ridiculous, to the point where people start saying things like “strength doesn’t matter at all”

Hurted

If he knew how to do a darce joke he definitely has some pretty solid jiu jitsu experience

@@starfilms3720 you're lost

He said in another comment he's been doing BJJ for a while

Same in Russia. Our first white belt competitions were filled with guys with 15-20 years experience in sambo and judo. Now it's changed but still many sandbaggers with near 5 years experience in bjj (I would like to be one too but my conscience doesn't let me).

​@@user-ej6du2hw3nyeah there is a ton of them at naga and IBJJF tournies here. No way to "absolutely" rule it out, I guess. Theres not much verification for competing unless its very high ranked.

Yeah, this is a pretty obvious case of sandbagging. Sad for the guys who trained hard and signed up for the appropriate division, just to lose to someone with no honor.

There really isn't the opportunity

Doesn't make sense. Purple is higher than blue so why would a highschooler be at a purple belt level and a college wrestler be at blue

@Allen Mooney I might have gotten them backwards. Again, I was just repeating a friends sentiment.

that's because almost all subs are illegal in wrestling and simply being on your back is a loss.

Not unless they drill wrestling, even Roger Gracie did. Half or more of IBJJF and ADCC matches start with a sit down and buttscoot for a reason.

such as what?

@@zountnblade obviously start with half cycle 🤦‍♂️

@@mozartofwar huh

@@zountnblade no fundamentals 🤦‍♂️

​@@zountnblade stance, motion, level change, penetration, lifting, back step, back arch, takedowns, pummeling, wrist control, hand fighting, rides, breakdowns, etc.

the time would be spent better perfecting his bjj, like the best submission grapplers in the world do

​@@dersatansschuh4426 if you want to be at the highest level of grappling then yes you need to perfect your bjj skills. But for mma you dont need to go deep into bjj

@@bluelightmoon777 yeah but the video was about a grappling tournament

@@bluelightmoon777 now that you mention it it’s kinda true, no wonder Kamaru usman is not a submission threat

​@Stephen V. Tran neither is colby covington. It wasn't until later on that khabib really started to get a higher submission rate too. It a shame that he retired right at the height of his powers, although I realize a life of sport wears down the body more than most people realize

that was such a sick ankle pick
