SAMBO got its Guard Position from the same place BJJ did its Called Judo.

No, he didn't. He's my guy. If you were ten times smarter you'd be stupid.

Goodlun simply said "SAMBO got its Guard Position from the same place BJJ did its Called Judo."

See how he answered my assertion with information? Now we could go on from there & I could learn something. You could've done this. This is how grown ups communicate. Really, being a hair-trigger fuckhead isn't edgy or cool. It's just childish.

Well if you were worth talking to like an adult I would spend the energy to explain. I did this for the OP in another thread. But when dogmatic ignorant fucks like yourself spew vomit out of their mouth well...... Here we are.

Oh don't worry about Omega, he has his own special problems with BJJ being the Kleenex of the grappling world.

Actually I have a problem with any person that says dogmatic things like that. Doesn't matter what style you are or what we are talking about.

Ignorant, maybe? I'm here to learn as much or more than most. Dogmatic? No. You don't know what you're talking about & read what you wanted too into it. I'm here for the high level of knowledge to be found all around. The trolls are the **** I wade through for the tasty peanuts.

You rarely talk like an adult. You barge in with insults & general fuckhead attitude. It goes to **** from there. Someone's being wrong isn't much of an excuse for your chronic shitty attitude.

How exactly do you feel the Unified MMA rules make styles a "relic"?

Edit: I'd also like to add to my initial response to Lampa - I don't feel MMa could be a style even for the simple fact that not all strikers train the same striking art. Some fighters are pure boxers, some do Muay Thai, etc...

Yeah, he does have a few. Anyways...I understand the history of BJJ. ButI take it for granted that BJJ has innovated on the guard to a level that forces other grappling arts to study the BJJ guard in order to deal with it. BJJ is to sweeps & guard attacks what Judo is to throws, to put it crudely. This is based on what I've seen of BJJ & MMA, not experience. If I'm wrong about this, can you tell me why?
