To everyone in the comments I had about 4 months of combine BJJ experience.

I also understand a wrestler probably beat you up at bjj practice and that’s why you’re hate commenting on my video.
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

@@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!
@@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.
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.
I wrestled in high school and man idk why this never ceases to amaze me with the talent from wrestlers. The fact that you went in there with nothing but wrestling and a little know how on submissions, this is so awesome and motivating. Mad respect my dude
I fucking love watching other college wrestlers jiujitsu. Its so awesome to see someone move in the weird unorthodox ways that I move. Watching that shit after I've had a few years of experience of jiujitsu is so fucking crazy and I'm able to understand why guys have had such a hard time with me.
We have a purple belt D2 wrestler and Arizona high school state champion. The dude has V8 in his chest and one of the smaller guys on the mat. His speed and balance are remarkable, let alone conditioning and strength. The important lesson is nothing cool has a level playing field. Keep training.
In naga and other tournies i been in, they specifically do not let college level wrestlers sign up in blue or white belt divisions. (i wrestled HS and 2 yrs in college so trust me... a d1 wrestler got my props and then some.. they whiped the floor w me for many years and taught me more than i learned in JJ on and off the mats)
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.
I wrestled in high school and did club judo, way before the jiu jitsu craze. The number one thing wrestlers need to remember, never give up your back. It's instinctive to post and never have your back facing the mat. Anyway, bro you did good. Keep it up.
dude what in the world is that ref doing, chilling with his hands in his pockets, hardly moving, not stopping the fight after the taps, holy moly, that was hard to watch
I have a buddy that runs a Juijitsu gym near Pittsburgh. He likes to say if a guy wrestled through High School, he's at or near Purple Belt. If he's wrestled through college, he's at or near Blue. I don't know how accurate that is but it seems legit. Anyways - this video reminded me of him and his sentiment.
saving this video to watch all your take down entries. Also, anyone who is mad for some reason, you need to realize D1 wrestlers are already a "black belt" in grappling just in a different martial art. Basically anyone who was a good wrestler all throughout HS is like "Brown belt" in grappling if not higher
I see a lot of people commenting, he's a better athlete, he's in better shape, look when you sign up to compete these are silly things to say. Good athletes are SUPPOSED to win competitions, welcome to life
This is why I place it safe lol. I’m pretty big athletic guy. 511, 220. But why take the risk of getting dumped? Play seated guard, have strong guard retention and entries into the legs and heel hook them when they come in. As you can see even in this video, for some reason leg locks and entries are still not commonly focused on even today.
As a wrestler, what helps when you're in guard is if you drive your forehead into their belt buckle area and push your butt to the sky while squeezing their legs together and then away like a clock hand. Keep head low into their belt line to reduce guillotine. Nice vid and good grappling
alot of juijitsu tournaments give points for maintaining dominant position, escaping submission, and gaining dominant postion hence why you may have gotten 32 points for maintaining postion and switching to other dominant postions and passing guard to gain a dominant postion
honestly id take a good wrestler over any blue belts but once you hit purple belts thats when the real bjj skills break through the wrestling top pressure
@@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
@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
Placed 2nd and 3rd st a tournament. Points were my problem because I had such good defense, that I never felt in trouble. With that said I’ve akways subbed wrestlers (trained a little wrestling in high school) as a bjj guy, in tournament and because I was the smallest guy, my teacher would throw all the new wrestlers in me, cuz he knew I could handle it as a decent white belt
I consider myself a pretty comfortable wrestler, not great by any means, and the transition to BJJ was extremely challenging. It took conscious awareness of things that were muscle memory for years. Rolling over, hiding your back, pulling guard...were so hard to do
10+ years of grappling vs blue belts who trained for 1-2 years, with a lot of that time being in a gi as well lol. The result would be the same if a life long boxer had a kickboxing match against a beginner kickboxer who trained for 1-2 years
Think it just looks it, but is generally flailing hands for grips. You see the same guy in next cut still rolling and is same dude that ankle locks wrestler
Gj! Lucas look up tony checchine the lost art of hooking I suggest you get it. Awesome intro to catch wrestling! You won’t have to change anything about your grappling skills as far as wrestling goes. It’s like amateur wrestling with submissions baked in from the beginning. In catch they also have different types of subs that aren’t practiced in bjj
It seems to me that in general wrestling is the superior base because it has better positional control and you can determine where the match takes place. Definitely as for MMA, wrestling is superior.
This video just shows how and why wresling is so do minant in the mma world, only 6 months of bjj training and he's hanging with these guys who have way more experience.
With the recent explosion of bjj popularity one would think there would be an abundance of lower caliber blue and purple belts that have very limited mat time and even less competitive mat time. Especially compared to a D1 wrestler. I dunno if the self back pat video is warranted yet
People are always afraid to celebrate achievements these days... Compete and lose I still say post a YT video showing everyone you had the balls to fail... Nothing wrong with this guy showing us what he did, personally I found it quite interesting PS. I'm a massive fan of the d'arce too
How could you be a purple belt with limited mat time? :D That is ridiculous. You have to train very consistently (which should always incklude rolling) for about 5 years to get to purple.
@@tobiasheinrich104 you missed the point ding dong. Because of the popularity of bjj blue and purple belts are handed out like hot cakes. There’s Gracie gyms where I live that give belts out via video training. You send in a video of you doing certain moves with your buddy and ol rener sends you a belt. It ain’t like it used to be. So like I said, there’s lots more blue and purple belts out there these days that don’t have a ton of mat time.
