This. This is how all mats in competition need to be. That pit is PERFECT for grappling.
Agree! 😊
💯
The pit looks awesome for grappling
Man they should do this for all events 💯
I've always wondered if the possibility for twisting your ankle is higher due to the likeliness of stepping on the wall while trying to balance yourself. That obviously can't happen on a flat surface and seems much more unlikely on a standard, upright wall. That being said, I don't ever recall seeing this being an issue in competitions I've seen in this type of pit. I do wonder if it hasn't happened simply because it hasn't happened or if it's an increased risk, or none at all.
It's also interesting how takedowns could be scored on this type of wall. It seems logical that if a person's back was against this wall, they'd be much more susceptible to takedowns due to the wall supporting a large amount of their weight, making their feet light. Pulling an opponent's legs out from under them seems like it would be much easier than on a mat with no walls or even with a straight up wall.
If point based grappling becomes popular in this type of pit, it makes me wonder if we'd begin to see, over time, competitors leveraging this wall to their advantage, i.e. dedication to pushing your opponent against the wall in order to pull the legs for points.
I think the pit should be used in all combat sports. It’s perfect.
The pit idea is cool. Not sure how many other places could have a set up like this but it would be ideal over possibly flying off an elevated stage
Griffith is the very definition of a front runner. Loves being bigger and stronger... soon as he gets tired he fucken crumbles. Rocha just showed the blue print to beat him in ADCC
who doesn't crumble once exhausted? lol
@@anonymousreviewer169me, I crumble before I’m exhausted
I think this really just showed that if there are no stalling penalties, Vagner is hard to beat because he is a master of disengagement and staying out of trouble. There are points in this match where Vagner is literally running away
@@pninnan I agree and support your suggestion. In this match, however, due to the significant size and age gap between the two, despite Vagner's evasion tactics Luke should've been able to absolutely dominate, but alas, Vagner came out victorious. I normally would never celebrate such a win, but the above-mentioned factors certainly changed my tune for this specific match.
Seems to be the norm for New Wave is to juice to the gills and try to smother everyone before you run out of Gas. Gordon seems to be the only one with a good Gas tank because he doesn't have to work as hard against everyone
Excellent format for grappling
Man, best mat ever for grappling am bjj fights, finally someone has found out a perfect format.
O pit se mostrou o melhor formato de arena para grappling.
The pit is such a boost over an elevated stage. Don’t understand what it has to be such a large factor in these matches in UFC and AIGA
The pit is the ultimate martial arena, for any martial art.
❤Awesome what a great idea! Big fan of this
great format!
Pit looks great, wasn't crazy about the ruleset though. Also there was zero urgency from the ref and no stalling called at all. Other then that looks like it has potential.
Ref's need to stay out of it. They should never decide the outcome of a match by constantly interfering. Blatant and continual stalling? Only then should the ref step in and give warnings.
Great job, Vagner! 41 yo badass dad beating younger and bigger oponent. 🇧🇷
Please keep doing these.
lets goo!
the vet showing out
Mike did a great job here.... asked questions for audience who doesn't know grappling, engaged with chat, and let the other 2 talk. Usually I'm a hater, but good move for KC to bring Mike in.
$KARATE TO THE MOON.🚀🌕
The pit is an amazing addition for bjj comps
Vagner is a beast! So much respect taking this match against a young, bigger and stronger high level opponent.
Looks good
On-cycle Vagner would have finished the sub attempt.😂
He’s for sure still on gear, what makes you think he stopped? I’m not even hating on him, so many of these guys are on gear but I don’t think after watching this that he’s natty now
@@pninnanno one said he’s natty. It’s that he’s not on cycle.. just not actively juicing.. most likely saving a super stack for ADCC.
Well if he's really just doing TRT there is no "off cycle" or "on cycle". It's just whatever dose you're on every week. Been doing it for almost three years now.
why is Logan Paul's secretary commentating
Muito bom!
I really like this pit idea. Good shit
Cant play the "run out of bounds to avoid bad positions/takedowns for a neutral reset" in a cage or pit style mat
Imagine dudes hittong flying moves after running up the pit walls
This comment aged very well.
@@kylep.4503 those nose beers gave Craig some wiings
We trained that deep half yesterday lol
please don’t let mike on the commentary stand. ruined the whole fight lol
Roll Forever!!!
Vagner is a beast
Pit is awsome
Lets get a full tournament next time for ultraheavy. I didnt watch any of the striking stuff.
Pits cool but Vager definitely uses it to pass Griffiths guard at 11:47 definitely solves some problems but creates others.

Achei foda o pit para o grappling.
The pit should be standard for nogi grappling going forward
👍👍
OLD MAN STRENGHT
Plus chemical agents strength
42 anos 😮
Wow you can really notice that Rocha is off cycle lol but kudos to him for scrapping with a guy much younger
much younger whos won brown worlds twice and fucking way bigger and under dananher and still loses lol
Much better than grappling on a platform (UFC Grappling series)
The pit is the best...non stop action..can use the wall for sub
Vagner looking beefy lol, put on a few pounds since the Gordon match
No more pushing people off the mats, the pit is definitely the best for grappling
Who are the commentators?
Wagner é um monstro....sabe muito, mas tá no suco.... só pode....kkkk
Surprised to hear Mike Majlak as a commentator. Edit: I was trying to make a shitty joke, and then i saw it's REALLY HIM WTF??
Respect to Vagner, 41 years older, and 41 pounds lighter than his opponent 🤗
Just wanted to check in on Wagner! Of course he is fighting a dude twice his size!
ESSE WAGNER TA MALOUC 😮
Is he a New Wave junior? 😂😂😂
Yes Vagner!! Humble these juice heads..
Vagner is a juice head himself…
Luke is not on juice dude. He South African. We are bigger here
okay who invented the pit?
the new wave crew both fought much smaller opponents and lost
ADCC 2024 in the pit
GR destroyed Vagnar like he was a white belt
Gordon does that to everyone though
Stalling , stalling, stalling bore him to death then explode on takedown and win on points. Hate those grapplers.
sadly - camera is over far away
Pretty poor performance from Luke. Although Vagner is solid, he's still very old (BJJ competition standards) and is heavily outweighed.
start at 8 minutes in and thank me later
Brasil porra OOSS
BJJ and Grappling is cool and all but uh......KARATE Combat?
That’s why it’s called Submission Grappling Series
Luke still got it. 🍑
Totally hope this keeps going. Put together some dream grappling cards @karatecombat
a 41 year old grappler bested griffith!
"Karate" Combat
11:42 "what about eye gouging ?" is this commentator dumb?
Stalling against a brown belt because you know your name will gift you a win is sad.
Luke needs to work on his cardio.
Please get the guy who knows nothing about Bjj off the commentary
Way too much hand fighting😢
😂 Vagner off roids looks and moves ridiculous
Boo!
so they can jump off it like do tricks and backflips and shit>?? these commentators are goofballs, choke is choke. tired dude out w cardio
No compulsive people aloud in the mma common guys he is a clown 🤡
For like the first 8 minutes this was the most boring match I had ever seen.
Man like in agai, running his mouth and keep’short against cardio and people with mental. I like luke but needs to change his attitude
🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈
Outwrestled by grandpa omg 😂
Bjj combat. In Karate. Don’t ruin the sport.
Lol you have no idea what you are talking about. Name ine karate tournament besides karate combat. i’ll wait
One
You do know karate has plenty of grappling in it
Literally why? KC is just bargain bin ONE FC now...
Dude this was awesome!!!
Straight hater
This was a good match
I think it’s pretty cool
Terrible match, this is supposed to be karate not wrestling
fat-Rocha boring as ever
BACK TO THE JUNIORS FOR YOU GRIFFITH
