Going from Krav to BJJ ... some thoughts

[Devil]

What kind of cup allows this? I've had the outside the pants diaper-looking type, and the inside the pants compression shorts + cup. Neither would be good for what you're describing. I'd almost go so far as saying they must not be kicking full power, because a full power kick will still smash your balls through a cup.

That's because you haven't trained in Krav Maga. Proper Krav Maga training will allow your nuts to double as a speed bag with little to no discomfort.

Bored Bully makes troll account and trolls. More bored Bullies respond. Film at 11.

"I taught Anderson Silva that kick" still cracks me up.

That and the dude with the cell phone.

It's just so rare that we get a genuine pussy-noob nowadays.

The drought appears to have resulted in some premature exasperation.

2:54, LOL. One of the few things I can imagine that are less impressive than a solo demo would be demonstrating a technique against Anderson Cooper.

Welp, I hate to be That Guy, but while OP is pretty obviously newbspazzing, trying to win at rolling, and almost certainly unclear about what comprises progressively resistive and realistic training, I don't see the point in treating him as a troll until he has at least had the time to answer with an arrogant, defensive, and ignorant reply to the initial replies.

What issue do people have with noob spazzing? It is not like everyone is going to do it so it just adds another dynamic to your sparring.

Kudo allows groin kicks apparently.

The issue is OP is complaining that BJJ isn't "hard" enough, because nobody but him is trying to win at rolling.

[RWaggs]

That's the most Krav thing I've ever read. That's Kravver than a motherfucker. It pretty much sums up everything that's hilarious about Krav Maga.

Sig'd!!!!!

As we don't have a fundamentals class noobspazzes just get paired up with a blue belt, which means I get to deal with them often.

I've come to enjoy them somewhat, they drill hard (which I like as I'm quite familiar with the drill and like to push the pace) and there's something terribly satisfying about just relaxing and smirking through the spazz before sinking in the lapel cross choke you've been sitting on while they expend all their energy. The "WTF" look they give you is priceless.

Yeah. I think I have gotten better because of it. You try to do something and they just clamp. So you have to get the technique to a fighting standard or it just stalls.

Yeah ass holes typically don't fit in well in combat sports

Sure they do. There are assholes all over every sport, especially combat sports.

The entire Professional Wrestling Industry is set up around wrestlers being assholes to each other, as a form of combat sport self-parody.

Boxers are almost always assholes to each other before AND after a fight. Floyd Mayweather is one of the biggest assholes on Earth.

Krav Maga is full of assholes.

Judo is full of assholes.

You're an asshole too. So am I.

[Mr. Machette]

Lube. You'll need twice as much.
Oil base. BJJ goes raw.
So raw.
