When has the Diaz bros ever submit anyone without beating them up with boxing first.

[brainwash]

They have never actually pulled an A. Silva and submitted someone after getting grinded on for 5 rounds. Not saying that that is the only way to show that your BJJ is any good, the point is that if they utilized primarily a grappling gameplan, they wouldn't be able to execute it. All of their submission wins usually come after they have exhausted their opponent by outpunching them.

Beating the crap out of someone where they become so inebriated they can't defend themselves from submission does not make your BJJ good.

In that sense, it is not their BJJ that won them the fight. Their BJJ is overrated.

Cowboy didn't spend three rounds completely avoiding Nate's guard for no reason.

Nate was beating him up with boxing anyways.

Nicks gogoplata on gomi

 

[submerged88]

Nate said the reason he has so many submissions is because his opponents go to ground instead of getting knocked out which we all saw conor do before he tapped in terror

 

[LiquidSnake]

Their BJJ isn't overrated

I remember watching my first fight...

 

[Mr.Maelstrom]

I hope they never stop pummeling guys down right before strangling them. My favorite style to watch

Nicks gogoplata on gomi

The momentum already switched way before that. Gomi was gassed out and Nick started hitting. Then Gomi went for the takedown and got submitted. Similar to the McGregor fight.

 

[Arm Barbarian]

Neither of them have decent wrestling, so likely no.

BUT - they could potentially snatch up a sub if someone tried to shoot in on them early. They have slick jitz.

I wouldn't call it over rated and Nate has said in interviews it is hard to submit a pro fighter without beating them up a bit. Look at BJ he used hiss BJJ the same. its called mma for a reason.

Nate vs. Pellegrino

Nick vs cyborg. Although nick started tagging him pretty good

Absolutely the BEST NC ever!!!

 

[FootstompShonie]

Some people have mentioned others already, but against Sakurai in DREAM Nick arm barred him without much damage on the feet.

 

[777 Others]

Their BJJ is overrated.

They're black belts under Cesar Gracie aren't they?!?!

Seems kind of logical to soften your opponent up before going for the kill, no?

Overrated you must be Joking they love to box Nate said it himself it starts with boxing and if they want to take it to the ground the JJ is there. Eddie Bravo said on Joe's podcast how good Nate is.
