Gracie Barra Needs to Have an Intervention With Kron

[maximus__]

Kron isn't a one dimensional BJJ guy though. He has no dimensions at all.

His BJJ is shit.

He's clearly a white belt. Bro has been held down with complete ease now by both Jourdain and Bryce, and all he could do on his back was lock his feet and hold on. Dude had literally no clue how to do any sweeps or subs or anything.

Even when he somehow got a bit of an armbar on, he eventually just let go because he had no idea what to do with it.

It's hilarious when he's just there on his back not having a clue and he moves his hips a bit or something and Rogan goes spastic saying his opponent is suddenly in huge danger, when really Kron was doing nothing at all.

White belts with 3 months training could hold this guy down in his guard until he died of thirst.

Black belt lol. He got that black belt or whatever he has in a McDojo.

Jourdain and Bryce are both blackbelts. They would beat 99% of most people down at your local BJJ comp in a gi without even wearing one in training.
Kron is still amazing at BJJ, he just isn't training with elite guys anymore. MMA guys have great top positional BJJ, Kron needed to train in an elite gym and actually work against top guys instead of blue belts in his academy.

Hopefully he goes back across to grappling. Bryce Mitchell is one of the better grapplers in his division. Jourdain is dangerous, but a level below that.
Saying a 3 month whitebelt would beat him is just wrong.

Here he is against Tonon back in 2013 putting on one of the best BJJ matches. Completely different approach to his grappling back then compared to this MMA period.

Or Frank KOing Cesar in 21 sec

This was a huge deal back in the day that people forget with breaking the myth and delusion.
It was about the supposedly "BJJ is all you need" marketing, ergo : a high level BJJ blackbelt with zero professional fights can compete with an MMA fighter - not just any MMA fighter either but one of the GOATs of the sport.

Really?
Thats not what Frank and pretty much any person with a working brain thought including the commission which is why it took years to sanction.
The delusion was so strong within the BJJ community though that eventually the commission was like "Ok, fuck around and find out. Lets sanction this shit one time and they can find out the hard way the difference between a pro fighter and a guy who teaches martial arts for a living".

I understand that he might just be trying to promote his gym or get some extra cash to invest in the gym, but this shit is a pure negative for his gym's reputation and the reputation of the whole gracie brand overall.

If he doesn't listen, they need to hire that smiling guy who handled the medical industry big wig.

You have to feel for them in a way, as grappling has moved on from them, and the guys who they taught BJJ were the ones who made them irrelevant.

UFC needs to cut that Gracie buttflopper.

We only have Gracie Barra in the UK. Had no idea there are separate ones. It's about the Gracie brand overall as kron's made them a meme.

There's not only Gracie Barra in the UK, there's Roger Gracies team, there's Carlson Gracies team and I'm sure probably others - Gracie Barra are probably the biggest and most well established in the UK but there's other Gracie based teams.
