I did?
Let me requote who was i replying.
How is that not snob elitism and basically saying that all MA are for shows and only BJJ is real?
The concepts involved in BJJ its not new, they have been around for over a century, just because they came to America yesterday, it doesn't means its new.
No, certain BJJ players own Judo guys on BJJ rules.
But all judoka can defend themselves or at least be decent in BJJ rules, take a newly made BJJ into a Judo tournament and he loses first fight. Unless he is really elite.
GJJ just made a name of beating crappy American judokas with no groundwork and really fell apart when they started challenging Japanese wrestlers and judoka.
Both arts are incredibily similar in concept, they just vary on the rules.
Belt colours mean almost nothing in Judo.
.
BJJ and Judo newaza are practically the same thing, a wrestler learning to do a triangle is not a BJJ guy.
MMA is being completely ruled by folkstyle wrestlers nowadays, the guys that came straigth of BJJ can also be counted with the hands, there is also the difference that there are one million BJJ guys jumping wagons into MMA, while only some retired judokas are doing so.
Which its not the point in the first place, as Judo depends a lot in the grips, any Judoka jumping wagons need to crosstrain, just like any BJJ needs to crosstrain too.
The hilarity its claiming that Lesnar its a BJJ guy because he did an armtriangle, i could claim the very same thing and say that Lesnar is a judo guy because he did an ude sankaku jime.
In the end
Practitioner >>>>>>>>>>>>> art.
Why should i STFU? so its ok for BJJ practitioners to call everyone a phoney, an snake oil seller, and pretty much idiots and pussies, but when someone says that BJJ did not invented slice bread, then its a troll? lol
I really like BJJ, and i still consider myself a BJJ practitioner.
1. MMA is complety ruled by folky style wrestlers??? WROOOONG... take the ratio of how many top wrestlers there is in MMA vs how many bjj guys based are in mma, and see what comes out... the UFC has its base in the USA, where theres still at least 2 o 3 times more wrestlers than bjj guys, still... Shogun rua, bjj based ground game, AS bjj based ground game, Bj penn (he will get the belt back, bjj based ground game) Jose Aldo, bjj based ground game...
SF... HW, Alistar Overeem, bjj based ground game, Werdum...
LHW.. King Mo (till he faces Roger)
MW, shields (bjj mix with wrestling) though Jacare will be the next champ.
WW, Nate diaz, bjj based ground game...
Holy sht wrestlers are taking the world right????
2. An arm triangle is not a pure bjj technique, in fact, most bjj techniques come from judo, SO FUKING WHAT??? Brock was training with Comprido, BJJ champ, not with Flavio Canto, so his submission grappling IS BJJ based, because he learned it from a bjj guy, so when he pulled a arm triangle, ude garami or what ever, he pulled a techinque that he learned AT BJJ CLASS!!!... not judo class...
About retired judokas, yeah ishi is retired, if im not wrong, he left judo to go to MMA because he wanted to go to MMA, not because he couldnt succed in judo anymore, how did he do????
Look, I have an huge ammount of respect for judo... but it is what it is, and if you are going to pull the judo vs bjj crap at every single thread, then you will get the facts expose to your face... and those dont really look all that great for judo man...
