“I want [fans] to have that knowledge of jiu-jitsu and be excited to see the fight on the ground the whole time if it ends up being that way,” Waldburger said. “A lot of fans diss on the jiu-jitsu, but they really don’t know all the technique that’s with it, all the movements and everything. Everyone wants to see an awesome knockout, which is totally cool, but there’s not enough credit with the jiu-jitsu and I want to bring that back.”

What are your thoughts on this article? Do you think people are aware of BJJ techniques but crap on it?
"LAY N PRAY!"
"WHAT THE FUCK ARE 2 GROWN MEN DOING IN THAT MISSIONARY POSITION MAN!"
I straight up had a woman ask me if they were homosexuals. I am not bashing but that is what I was asked and I explained that I don't know if they were homosexuals but them being in "guard" is a part of the sport and that they are working towards a submission.
Will the "glory days" of BJJ return (the Royce era)? Will there be a champion that is BJJ based and dominates?
I appreciate BJJ as much as the next person. Demian Maia is one of my favorite fighters, I have no shame in saying I have one of his Bad Boy tshirts from UFC 118.
