Are we getting to an Era where its almost impossible to take someone down?

What the hell does this mean.

Wrestling is one of the oldest sports still going and is not going anywhere anytime soon.

Regarding college athletics, it has been stated that “Between 1981 and 1999 university athletic departments cut 171 men’s wrestling teams

Plus just very few colleges give a fuck about wrestling.

I think everybody (or most) is(are) training wrestling and tdd's now, just like with BJJ. I think we will see less td's and LNP in the future.

Besides all the reactions there might be a small part truth there.

It is maybe only my memory but it seems to me lot more fighters can properly defend takedown last year then 5-10 years back. Wrestling dominace in Octagon seems loosing a bit of steam. Especially ability to work your way up seems more common then before.

 

[Goon Dog]

Of course not.

 

[Cosmahorio]

Sure. I've hardly seen a single fight go to the ground this yr.

Ah, no TS.

 

[Diet Otsuka]
