Great video. I train most days, and i have been a profesional bouncer for many years. This is the stuff i use on a regulal basis. And i know it works. There are a couple of points in the video i havent used. But i will be trying at training. Thank you guys.

Putting 'sticky hands' on their fists when they put their dukes up works *so* well. Everybody always laughs when I suggest that it works, but in my experience, it works great (especially if your sticky hands are just a little 'heavy').

I always really appreciate when you do stand-up grappling/clinch stuff. The strikers in your audience thank you. You see that body scissor sweep in just about every single martial art regardless of geography or origin -- kung fu, karate, judo, kali, silat, greco-roman wrestling, etc. -- precisely because that "merging" engagement is such a universal problem. There's also a ton of Wing Chun theory in the section on covering hands. Great stuff. I'd be excited to see the entries to some standing chokes and locks as a follow on. Great stuff as always.

2:45 is called Sukui Nage for anyone who is curious. Awesome throw that you don't see super often.

Good technique and useful information as always. Special shoutout to the editor....the little cutaways showing the technique with the voiceover were helpful.

Loved this video as I started jiu-jitsu for the self defense aspect. Always good to refresh the memory with some stand up defence of strikes. Thx guys!! Oss

Thank you i like your self defense realted videos keep up the good work

Excellent!! Sharing!!

Would love to see a video for entries to close the distance for mma💪 really wanna study your punch protection stuff more soon. I been working my wrestling a lot and have gotten extremely good with my takedowns and want to start using my bjj offensively for mma💯

Fantastic tutorial !!! Many Thanks! I’m only a 2nd stripe 54 white belt in BJJ, so I could be wrong, but clinching and then doing a clinch based takedown just seems like the least risky and most effective and efficient way to approach things, as opposed to single and double leg takedowns, especially in a self defense situation.

Thanks!

Excellent vid!

Awesome techniques!!!

The snap-on braclet is a great analogy Also that pull-back matt-return is my favorite; quick & effective using little energy More vids on this topic! Maybe demonstrating with boxing gloves & a sparring helmet

This guy is a god on Wednesdays at FTF. Tear it up bro -anonymous white belt student

Love these guys!

Awesome

i'd like to see an in-depth video about that Muay Thai dump at 3:25 - we do the sucker punch, and haymaker defense at my gym, but i've not seen that MT dump version before.

When I wanna find videos on how to transition my grappling to MMA this channel is my first stop. Thanks boss 🫡

Thanks Eli

excelente gracias por el aporte

I’ve seen some reconstructions of samurai battles and noticed that they “crash” into the clinch to initiate throws/takedowns rather than grip fighting or shooting for doubles, very interesting and similar! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nc96bJVp3dDJgnU.html

What part of NC are you in???

How to defend straight punches and uppercuts...?

Great video, prof. Eli. Can you also make a video about defense against shirt grab and punch? Many videos of different martial arts teach dealing with the grabbing hand first. I disagree because as soon you hold than arm, you may eat a punch or two. Thank you.

Does the guillotine put pressure on the windpipe or on the arteries

The second one will be different if the guy is orthodox stance as his legs will be reversed?

🤌🏼🤌🏼

I have been doing karate since college. I have some boxing as well. I feel striking is the only thing that BJJ is weak in.

Wonderful
