Thanks to the Gracies, we always hear of MMA fighters studying BJJ.
Are there other forms of Jiu Jutsu that is used in the UFC?
 
Carlos Newton. But he's also a 3rd degree BJJ black belt.
 
Lots of people use Judo man

Ronda and Parisyan first come to mind
 
Jeremy May - Jeremy jujitsu

Yves Edwards - thug jitsu.

All I can think of.
 
Wasn´t it Shields that talks about American Jiu Jitsu?

Edit: beaten by such a fast poster that I suspect him of being high on amphetamines and I've reported him. @Fahcough
 
Tony Ferguson, made up 99% of his submissions himself he said
 
Myles Jury practices and teaches Jury Jiu-Jitsu, despite having accomplish absolutely nothing noteworthy in competitive grappling. I was glad when Do Bronx tapped him.

Alexey Oliynik - traditional Japanese jujutsu. A lot of his wins are from subs that aren't too common in BJJ, like scarf hold headlocks and no gi Ezekiel chokes.
 
Conor style of jujitsu isn't Gracie based,aren't the shoot fighter schools all none Gracie?
Other than none Gracie ,I don't know of any none BJJ styles jujitsu I think it's always alternate ground games,wrestling,sambo etc
 
Anyone that trained under Dave Camarillo is taught Guerrilla Jiu Jitsu (Cain, Fitch, Koscheck, and Swick).
 
You can't just seperate classic jiu jitsu which is basically a medieval samurai grappling style from BJJ. Or judo from jiu jitsu.
 
Jon Jones submitted a bunch of black belts yet he barely trains bjj
 
Goddamn. This is such a stupid question and shows an utter misunderstanding of martial arts.
 
Conor style of jujitsu isn't Gracie based,aren't the shoot fighter schools all none Gracie?
Other than none Gracie ,I don't know of any none BJJ styles jujitsu I think it's always alternate ground games,wrestling,sambo etc

Carlos Gracie Jr > Rigan Machado > Chris Haueter > Matt Thornton > John Kavanagh
