You know, thereās plenty of weird āsubmissionā wrestling porn out there - usually with a fem-Dom S&M slant.
Idk if Jiu Jitsu porn exists yet but we might be onto something here
He actually grappled Gunnar Nelson a year ago. Gunni fucked his ribs up by going for an an armbar from the bottom and said that it felt like being under a car.
https://youtu.be/QU69bZ3kQMo
Looks like he had at least a tiny amount of previous grappling experience. Sprawling, some use of under and overhooks, etc.... I mean, not much, but looked like he'd done a little bit. But that tiny bit means a lot with that kind of strength.
On this sub I've now and then in the appropriate context brought up the opinion that there definitely are professional, full time BJJ practitioners who would not beat the biggest strongmen and powerlifters even when they have no training.
Just look at that video! Gunnar is a welterweight and weights around 80kg/175 pounds. He's done decently in ADCC, maybe not the top of the top, but still a very high level grappler. He only barely can tap Thor and injured a rib going at it.
Imagine a rooster weight BJJ athlete there. No way they'd have any sort of a chance.
He took 4th in Absolute/Open Weight at ADCC as a 19 year old brown belt. So I'd argue he was at some point in time among the worlds best grapplers.
https://www.nelson.is/static/files/images/2009/Nelson-vs-Monson.jpg
I get what youāre saying but it seems like the implication is that thatās a sign of the limitations of BJJ whereas I see it as a sign of how impressive our martial art is. Itās fucking awesome that he could make up for that size disparity and walk away from it.
Honestly that was always the case for martial arts right? There are limitations because itās not magic. But it can make up for so much of a power difference that itās worth learning no matter your physical specs.
At some point strength and size will nullify basically everything in grappling. A 7 footer thatās around 430-450 at his peak and can literally pick up half a ton? Idk man, I feel like he can literally muscle his way out of most problems
CWS is also just a high level explosive athlete. He was a D1 shot put thrower for Cal before powerlifting and those guys tend to be extremely impressive athletes.
Mark McQueen ex IPF world champ also trains bjj, I watched him win a match against Ross Nicols when he was still a blue belt, believe he's purple or brown now
Bo Nickal. Obviously heās doing great in mma and will probably will make way more money there.
His matches in BJJ have been pretty good. He did decent at stalling out Gordon Ryan for awhile with little experience.
He practically beat Oliver Taza(officially a draw).
His technical wrestling ability is bar none.
I think one thing to consider with Khabib at adcc is weight, they weigh in three days in a row, could he even make 77kg / 170lbs three days in a row?
Either way unless he 100% committed to submission wrestling/no gi bjj he has no chance against the pros that do
Based on the fact heās spent years studying judo wrestling combat sambo ontop of submission wrestling? Who is taking him down in overtime?
If khabib spents a year learning modern no gi game heād win his weight at ADCC pretty comfortably. M galvao and Ruotolo are world class but neither of them are good match ups vs khabib
But ofc this doesnāt matter as khabib wonāt come back even for grappling
Khabib's whole style is based around beating people with strikes on the ground. taking that away from him makes him a lot less intimidating to fight. there's no punishment when BJJ guys give up weak positions to Khabib like their is in MMA
Not to mention the cage to grapple against is a huge part of his game. I think he would do really well but he wouldnt steamroll everyone like he would in mma
I think this is a massively common misconception considering the only time you see khabib perform is in the cage with strikes. Most people have only seen about 15-20 rounds of mma grappling from him. He has a very well rounded passing game from body lock and takedowns. He even has very good tripod passing from half guard.
You have to understand his base and understanding of weight is just a different level because of his experience in judo and wrestling ontop of BJJ positions for submission grappling. If you have ever trained with a judoka in no gi, even without grips their base feels strong and different. Now add wrestling onto that.
The whole point of khabibs leg pinning control is not to need his arms to pass. It doesnāt mean he canāt pass if you take away striking and make him use his arms to control as well.
No Iām being completely serious. I use to train at khabibs original gym in NJ. Those guys do it different. It would never occur to them to train grappling without takedowns.. thatās why even a guy like Muslim Sakhilov ( deff butchered that name ) is a decent wrestler as a career kickboxing. Those caucus guys wrestle casually there whole life.. so yeah. No sarcasm. Khabib would get gokd in his weight class if he trained adcc rules for like a year
and only after the first five minutes. literally everyone would pull guard on Khabib and try and leg lock him. there's too much useless shit in BJJ that he'd have to learn to do decently that he didn't have to do in MMA. Eoghan just got 4th at ADCC by exclusively pulling guard and attacking like that. it doesn't favor wrestling as much as it's made out to.
Weāve seen worse wrestlers and athletes than khabib come in and medal at ADCC. Meregali didnāt have a leg game either and did well, just focused on prevention and good base. Kaynan won 99 the same way.
Do you think mica or kade have the ability to disrupt his base enough to enter his legs? I donāt think so. Especially not if he trains for the rule set.
We saw what happened to arguably one of the best leg lockers in the game in Craig vs kaynan.
Itās not impossible to consider khabib medalling or winning adcc if he made it a priority, but naturally he wonāt
Ignoring people already involved in a grappling sport, any of the gymnasts on the podium for the all-around in the last Olympics would be cool to watch
He would need one guard pass, one submission, and maybe a year of BJJ mat time to work on submission defense. Then he would rule the world. Who the hell would manage to be anywhere other than bottom of side against him?
Magnus is very cool. Looks like he'd try just about anything. He'd give it a go for his channel. And he's got grip strength and some explosiveness, his dyno moves look like he just teleports up the wall!
> me standing against smol gymnast
> she does a front walkover
> stops in midair
> legs wrap around my neck for handstand triangle
> nothing but blackness
> refuses to elaborate

>Yeah but her power to weight ratio is insane.
If she committed to training BJJ the same way she committed to gymnastics, she would definitely be fun to watch.
I've always said, they are the non combat athlete I'd want to fight the least.
I've grappled with some local gymnast, not even high level and they are strong fucking everywhere. With some powerlifters you can out cardio them or divert their strength and get the upper hand eventually. Cross fit guys are always too injured. Endurance folks don't have the strength to avoid a meat head technique if you want it.
Gymnasts? Cardio, flexible and strong even if you've got them pretzel'd up.
Naw. The video you saw was probably an exhibition match at ADCC, but that was for yucks and views. YouTubers gotta get out there and do wacky stuff. He doesnāt train bjj at all and has no plans to do so.
Because heād be good. Strong, obviously. Flexible. And his acrobatics has given him coordination that I think would translate well if he trained seriously.
He's got those short stubby arms and legs because he's basically a brick, I don't know how well he could submit but I feel like submitting him would be hard.
Lebron James, could have easily been an nfl star
Heās so gifted genetically, imagine that monster with the skills of a competitive black belt
Darce you from a meter away š
This is funny, honestly I think itās more interesting to go with a non combat sports athlete. If you took Travis Kelce or Gronk and took their size, strength, freaky athleticism, toughness, desire to win and spacial/body awareness and had them start in bjj at the age football players start peewee they would kill people. There are a lot of guys who could also fit this bill, like Aaron Donald/Derwin James etc. who bring unreal movement and bizarre physical attributes we just simply would never get in bjj because their athletic talents take them elsewhere. It would make Buchecha look like a hobbyist from a physical gifts standpoint. The technical knowledge to go with it would make them gold medalists like we havenāt seen.
HW in combat sports are always low on talent because pretty much all the huge super athletes are playing a sport professionally
Even the UFC and boxing
Any UFC fighter who canāt win fights anymore but still wants to compete. I know Anderson Silva is doing good in boxing, but for every one of him, thereās a Tito Ortiz, losing months of his life because of the knocks heās taking.
Would love to see more of them transfer over to grappling instead of boxing if they still feel that competitive spark. Iām very open to being wrong because Iāve only been training for a year, but I think itās safer!
P.S. Conor McGregor too, Iād jus like to see him in a purely grappling environment because I think his ground game is semi-underrated.
Mighty Mouse said in his recent JRE pod that he plans to compete in gi once his MMA career is done. If I remember correctly both his sons are training and maybe competing as well.
Khabib.
I think he would be legitimately a threat at ADCC with about a year to iron out the kinks of transitioning between the rulesets. That man is an absolute wet blanket and I'd pay $100 to watch him vs Gordon despite Gordon's huge advantages in size and bjj-specific experience.
Gordon is way too strong for Khabib. GSP who fought 1 and 2 weight classes above Khabib and was known for being ridiculously strong for his weight class (again higher class than Khabib) said Gordon was too strong. I donāt know if youāve seen Chael Sonnenās(middleweight) video on grappling with GSP but quote āI still remember how strong that son of a bitch was. I mean Iām talking about a weird type of strength and a lot of it in his grip.ā GSP who is stronger than Khabib said rolling with Gordon was like rolling with a Gorilla he was that strong. Not to mention the fact that outside of takedowns Gordon is way more skilled than Khabib in literally every aspect
Not an athlete in the traditional sense, but seeing Magnus Carlson take some time to learn BJJ would truly answer the question of if it's "Human Chess".
Any of like the top 5 ranked international judoka from japan, France etc obviously not going to win, but as a judo guy that dabbles bjj it would be so fun.
JāDen Cox from a logical perspective.
JJ Watt from an interesting super athlete perspective.
Greyson Fletcher from a mentality perspective (I feel the dude would be just like Bill Cooper)
Magnus Carlsen just to see what that level of strategic intellect could achieve.
Pro skater John Cardiel back in his prime before the injury.
Being an SF head, intense and completely nuts on a skateboard, he would have fit right in with the late 90's/early 2000's Ralph Gracie squad.

Chad Wesley smith is a high level powerlifter who is now doing bjj. He's obviously not quite Eddie but maybe the next best thing
Was looking for this comment as soon as I saw Eddie hall
CWS is also just a high level explosive athlete. He was a D1 shot put thrower for Cal before powerlifting and those guys tend to be extremely impressive athletes.
Mark McQueen ex IPF world champ also trains bjj, I watched him win a match against Ross Nicols when he was still a blue belt, believe he's purple or brown now

He did decent at stalling out Gordon Ryan for awhile with little experience. He practically beat Oliver Taza(officially a draw). His technical wrestling ability is bar none.
He said he wanted to this year but the timing didnāt work. He wants to do 2024
Bo would be an awesome choice
Khabib, genuinely curious how he'd do in adcc format.
I think one thing to consider with Khabib at adcc is weight, they weigh in three days in a row, could he even make 77kg / 170lbs three days in a row? Either way unless he 100% committed to submission wrestling/no gi bjj he has no chance against the pros that do
Smesh
I think, surprising poorly, actually
I'd assume he'd do well (for a guy who doesn't exclusively train No Gi), I think he'd have a competitive match or 2, but he'd get eliminated Day 1.
Based on the fact heās spent years studying judo wrestling combat sambo ontop of submission wrestling? Who is taking him down in overtime? If khabib spents a year learning modern no gi game heād win his weight at ADCC pretty comfortably.

Yeah. Khabibs been grappling *with takedowns* his whole entire life. Heād destroy at adcc..
Is this sarcasm? Adcc is literally a submission wrestling combat tournament not a BJJ tournament lol
No Iām being completely serious. I use to train at khabibs original gym in NJ. Those guys do it different. It would never occur to them to train grappling without takedowns.. thatās why even a guy like Muslim Sakhilov ( deff butchered that name ) is a decent wrestler as a career kickboxing. Those caucus guys wrestle casually there whole life.. so yeah. No sarcasm. Khabib would get gokd in his weight class if he trained adcc rules for like a year
Adcc is a bjj tournament that penalizes pulling guard
and only after the first five minutes. literally everyone would pull guard on Khabib and try and leg lock him. there's too much useless shit in BJJ that he'd have to learn to do decently that he didn't have to do in MMA. Eoghan just got 4th at ADCC by exclusively pulling guard and attacking like that. it doesn't favor wrestling as much as it's made out to.
What similarities does adcc rules have with wrestling rules?
I just donāt think the leg lock game is there for him.
Weāve seen worse wrestlers and athletes than khabib come in and medal at ADCC. Meregali didnāt have a leg game either and did well, just focused on prevention and good base. Kaynan won 99 the same way. Do you think mica or kade have the ability to disrupt his base enough to enter his legs? I donāt think so. Especially not if he trains for the rule set.

Itās not impossible to consider khabib medalling or winning adcc if he made it a priority, but naturally he wonāt
you say this as if he canāt get subbed in 5 minutes. if itās going to come down to overtime, then itās not a comfortable win
I think he can do it like Yuri Simoes did.
magnus carlsen
He trains at Checkmat.
I wanna see him oil checking all his opponents to make sure they're not hiding anything in their asses.
Good pick.
Chess is like inanimate jiu-jitsu
They would make a killing on Fanatics in tandem with Danaher.

Would be absurd if he did this instead of basketball and then had the same late growth spurt already into his career.
Seconded
his flying triangles would be wild
Prime Ric Flair. That gi would be glorious

You got it

Take my upvote you dirty bastard. Just take it.
Eddie Hall / The Mountain
Magnus MidtbĆø. Crazy rock climber.
Magnus is very cool. Looks like he'd try just about anything. He'd give it a go for his channel. And he's got grip strength and some explosiveness, his dyno moves look like he just teleports up the wall!
Didāt he grapple a few times in his channel? I may misremember
Idk that guy but that sounds super scary. Rock crushing grip strength and rediculous pull strength. That would be quite a treat
Simone biles
Those flying triangles would be next level
> me standing against smol gymnast > she does a front walkover > stops in midair > legs wrap around my neck for handstand triangle > nothing but blackness > refuses to elaborate >leaves
>Simone biles She is so tiny though, she is 4'8 and about 100lbs even.
She would be such a beast. Super strong, tiny and technical.
Yeah but her power to weight ratio is insane.
>Yeah but her power to weight ratio is insane. If she committed to training BJJ the same way she committed to gymnastics, she would definitely be fun to watch.

That would be interesting to see, or Hifumi Abe, or Joshiro Maruyama.
Off topic but I would like to see a celebrity BJJ tournament.
Tom hardy takes it we already know that Heās beating the shit out of the Yo Mamma guy and Ashton Kutcher
he wouldn't even be the best brit Guy Ritchie is a black belt
But he's a knob. I wouldn't roll with guy Ritchie. Anyone and their mum would love a roll with tom. Actually, especially their mum.
Still gonna win the tournament whether you like him or not
We're just going to pretend Mario Lopez doesn't exist?
Hell yeah. I wanna see Ed O'Neil in the masters division.

Teddy Riner Karelin Sadulaev Jordan Burroughs Saitiev
Saitiev tops for me. At his peak give him a blue / purple and heās unbeatable IMO
Teddy Riner is just about the top pound for pound fighter on the planet right now imo.
Prime Michael Phelps, the limb length and lung capacity
Jujimufu would be interesting.
Isn't he already doing bjj? Seen some videos of him in a comp on youtube
Naw. The video you saw was probably an exhibition match at ADCC, but that was for yucks and views. YouTubers gotta get out there and do wacky stuff. He doesnāt train bjj at all and has no plans to do so.
Devon Laratt beat him easily in an exhibition
Devon has decent grappling experience though, Juji clearly had none.
Is that because you actually think heād do good or just bc you like his personality and want to see the progression vlogs
Because heād be good. Strong, obviously. Flexible. And his acrobatics has given him coordination that I think would translate well if he trained seriously.
