Ryan Hall is better and more accomplished than Eddie Bravo. If anything Eddie should go to 50/50 to learn from Hall.
lol obviously I was joking, there is not a single thing Eddie can teach RogerHonestly, I think Roger's game has been set for a long long time now, he's just getting better at the same things. So even if he did train with Eddie, it would take a lot of convincing for him to step away from his usual things and learn something new to the standard required to use it on high level competition.
So yeah, maybe it would have. But I doubt it. @_@
Take care,

I don't think u understood me. I am not in favour of the lockdown. It restricts your movement. I was saying that it is a bad idea to use the lock down as other very effective sweeps can't be done as you have restricted your own movement.
I personally like to keep switching guards till I find the one that works best for that situation. Changing from the 93 guard, to the half spider, to the deep half guard to the traditional deep underhook etc in no particular order.
You can't got for an ankle lock when you have someone mounted...

Ryan just joined a new team...its called BRASA!!
Biggest mistake that new grapplers make: Mortgaging long-term development for short-term success by focusing on low-percentage, wacky stuff instead of sound fundamental movements and attacks
I wouldn't call them fundamental, but when the option is get passed or go to inverted guard, the choice is obvious.
I'm a wrestler who does bjj/judo so don't bite my head off, but this is an honest question....
would you guys consider the inverted guard and 50/50 fundamental bjj?
edit: coach did recently show us a triangle set up using the inverted guard, so no judgments. just asking.
yup.
so what he said above can about wacky guards and shit without the fundamentals can apply to guards he uses even.
seems like less of a swipe at EB, and more like a a swipe at people who try to perform fancy techniques without owning the basics.
just because you can get away with something, doesn
ryan hall can put himself in a triangle with one arm in. he's more flexible than eddie

Is this some Chuck Norris shit?
Ryan tells us in class all the time that he had so much success from the inverted guard because he drilled it and became so profficient with it that his skill at this position outweighed his opponents defenses.
