Gracie Combatives MABS Cull: Why is IiF laughing at my "Paper Tiger" comment?

[W. Rabbit]

Oops, that one was a RNC. I believe the armbar crank was a fight with Jason Delucia.

RNC > Bite, anyway.

[Permalost]

pushups, but why no video?

Sorry I can't embed this (why, I don't know).

BJJ > bite.

Gee I wonder which of those injuries took longer to heal the bite or the fucked up joint.

Answer: That was Gerard Gordeau's second to last fight.

In his last fight in Japan, he eye gouged Yuki Nakai (permamently blinding that eye...what a dick) in a Vale Tudo match in 1995, but he still lost (by submission).

T43 d34dly failed him.

Relevant to this thread: that same night, Gordeau bit and tried to eye gouge Royce Gracie on the ground during the final match, leading to Royce cranking the hell out of Gerard's elbow until the ref pulled them apart.

There is one counter example, my personal favorite, from UFC1, when Gerard Gordeau (Savate) sends Teila Tuli's (Sumo) tooth flying about 17s in.

I think we may be going about this all wrong. Perhaps we should ask ghummel for some instruction on exactly how we would go about winning on t3h str33ts. Judging from his posts he's likely got all kinds of advice to give.

[Yoj]

Stances, forms, and kata are not for fighting.

lolwut?

[twisted mind]

I believe ghummel was trying to request one of these:

[W. Rabbit]

Most striking TMA's didn't even work standing up like they were supposed to. It may have started out as two dudes approaching each other in their most badassed "kung-fu" stance but as soon as they engaged each other all those stances, forms and katas were abandoned

Stances, forms, and kata are not for fighting.

[W. Rabbit]

ghummel, go back and watch the early UFC matches say 1 through 5 when it truly was a style vs style.

Pay particular attention to grappler vs striker matches.

Is Sumo considered grappling? Who knows, but I do know this: a good kick to the face is usually a show stopper.

Yes, but there are particular methodologies necessary in order to properly facilitate biting his nuts.

I wonder if that would be a good escape from the triangle of course most of the time I am in a triangle I can't bite shit.

[DerAuslander]

[goodlun]

Why all this talk about biting don't you know all you have to do is reach down and grab the guy in his nuts?

[It is Fake]

Wait.

Did he suggest the ke?po karate taught a comprehensive biting curriculum to be able equalize Gracie Jujutsu?

Oh I was hoping you would see that.
