I don't believe you did bjj lol. Sorry, it's just that the statements and comparisons you make demonstrate a fundamental lack of understanding the sport. I definitely believe you did judo. I think this is a very roundabout judo superiority post that you're disguising as a bjj post.
Based on what lol? I've trained at 7 or 8 different gyms across the country and never have I ever met someone who does bjj and doesn't enjoy watching it. I know people who don't watch it religiously or who only watch specific comps but NEVER anyone who doesn't like watching bjj at all.
Every time you claim it's better to literally run from your opponent for 10 minutes than to pull guard, I laugh. I can't take yall seriously. Just say you can't pass guard.
Lol yet another terrible comparison. Wrestling has no submissions. Judo barely has any action after the throw. MT has no grappling. Boxing has no grappling. This is such a brain dead take. You get stood up and lose in all of these because IT ISNT SUBMISSION GRAPPLING. Duh.
And in most of these sports you are rewarded for doing dumb shit. In wrestling you learn to turtle up and expose your back to prevent a pin which is terrible for self defense and sub grappling. Boxing teaches you to clinch without consequences. Judo is so bastardized from what it once was that I don't even know where to start. MT teaches you to throw from the clinch which is great but has no answer after that.
Once again you expose yourself for not competing or training bjj because in the VAST majority of comps you sit to guard ever. You also cannot pull without penalty, you can be stood up, and you cannot pull without established grips. You don't know what you're talking about and it shows.
So much wrong...
Most rulesets limit and punish guard pulling
Every bjj trains TDs. Many even have dedicated wrestling and judo coaches. My gym teaches TDs every day. As do most major gyms chains.
Lol at naming 2 leg lock specializing gyms and the only major gym notorious for guard pulling. You for sure just Google bjj gyms that guard pull lol. You absolutely do not train bjj and do not compete because once again you cannot pull without penalties or limitations.
Before I ever did BJJ I did sambo, Greco-Roman, and Folkstyle. I have always utilized, taught, and encouraged takedown heavy games. You're just wrong.
I was definitely right in my assumption about you being a judo supremacy guy lol. IJF notoriously inflates their numbers. They have a decent and consistent viewership but even their live videos on YouTube tend to cap in the ten thousands. It's HUGE in Japan and France without a doubt but outside of there the viewership varies.
Similarly, BJJ is very big in the US, Brazil, and Korea but less so in other countries.
In real combat the fight doesn't stop I'd you go to your back lol. If you go down then you can keep attacking. That is literally whole thing with BJJ. Triangles, armbars, guillotine, kimuras, collar chokes, omaplatas, etc. There are so many ways to beat someone from your back it is not even funny. It has nothing to do with wrestling or judo. It's because unlike those 2, bjj is a submission grappling art. Not a takedown spectacle. Takedowns, trips, and scrambles are present and dominant in bjj. Anyone who trains and competes knows this first hand.
You are also objectively wrong about the passing stats. Most guard passes are established guards, usually half guard. Not TDs.
Unlike in gi jiu-jitsu, where sweeping is the most utilized form of scoring, no-gi jiu-jitsu or submission-wrestling, has much more varied/balanced dynamics with scoring being well spread out between takedowns, passing, and sweeping. When addressing these 3 macros individually other differences...
