Breaks down his hybrid wrestling/bjj style (neat to see he attempted traditional bjj in early MMA fights and lost position enough times that he adapted his style)


How he fights hands on the ground


Rides and first move stoppers


How to return a fighter back to the ground


How to crossbody ride successfully


Lastly; highlights of taking people down at will
 
Going to be way too long for most to watch but I loved it. All his future opponents need to be studying this, breaks down his gameplan in detail to a T.
 
dont have wifi ATM but will be watching as soon as i do. Thanks TS

What makes it special is that he actually utilizes his wrestling background which for some reason is so rare in MMA. Wrestlers keep sticking to the same 3-4 moves while Askren uses a wide array of wrestling techniques. It's why I find him entertaining to watch.
 
Just what I've expected, nothing to expect.

Another throw away opponent just for Askren, courtesy of One Championship.
 
Thanks for this! I always trained my grappling/bjj for mma and prefered riding over the back mount position. Askren is one of the best imo and his ground game inspires and educates me.
