Having had my face pounded in by an MMA(WEC) Light Heavyweight Champ I have to second this. It was all I could do to pull him in to stop the barrage of face destruction.

This (text, haven't seen the vids) is an important lesson for all of us bjjers who've not done much mma training.

you don't think it could possibly happen by accident at all? i'm not saying you're wrong.

i checked the vid again, the bit where he grabbed the guys hand and turned did seem a bit creative for someone untrained...

they were trained ... to some degree anyways ...

keeping guard while getting pounded isnt exactly the easiest thing to do ...

Trained in grappling they may have been but trained in standup I don't think so. I saw no technique in their striking. Just wild swings to the head. AT the range they where fighting elbows would have been more effective.

What's a syracuse?

sometimes i spar with striking on the ground (one guy on top with gloves on, either in the guard or with mount, guy on bottom no gloves and just trying to get a submission), and after a little practice you should be able to do better than that chap did. gloves do make it easier to grab arms though.

If I am ever in a fight, where people are standing around saying “fuck him up dog” or “ya-yaaaaa.” Or whatever the crap those red neck ****-heads were doing I would take some time to reevaluate my life decisions. That is not what martial arts are about.
