Cardio beats a RNC

Royler didn't got the memo.

While Royce and Royler were destroying people in competition they didnt do so hot when they went to their big brother's gym.
The only dude Relson ever lost to was Rolls, per Relson.

I don't think Relson and Ricardo had a lot of matches.

Relson and Rickson were on some some next level shit in the late 80's & 90's.

Maybe he was saying what Relson told him? This was in 2015, and my memory sucks.

Yeah, Renzo had no problem passing Ricardo's guard...

Renzo also said that at the seminar he did.

"Relson, what do you think of Del La Riva Guard? "
Relson - "Del La Riva....? I pass his guard."

Royler didn't got the memo.

"I'm having trouble passing the guard of a stocky guy, he always seems to..."

"Heel hook."

"When I find myself in a scramble, I..."

"Heel hook!"

"I was doing my taxes, and the deduction for..."

"HEEL HOOK!"

"Someone tries to mug m-"

"HEEL HOOK"

"Uh..."

"And post about it live on twitter."

Ahahahahaha. At this seminar some white belt asked about countering it. Aside from the joke answer, Renzo actually showed us some cool shit. Apparently De la Riva has feet that turn inwards as a result of injuries sustained in a motorcycle accident that actually make it easier for him to maintain hooks. Also Renzo's go-to method of dealing with it is a heel hook. He was big on heel hooks. I asked him about kneebar entries and he showed me a heel hook instead.

Ohh teach DLR to an x guard sweep... very bigginer friendly... if it wants you to teach an open guard I would just go with butterfly... who is supposed to be the instructor here? you should teach what you want.

I should also point out that this part isn't graded so much. I mean if you don't take on his criticisms at all that will ding you on your final grade, but what I did today doesn't count for or against me, so I felt somewhat safe playing with that fire.

That was a a blue belt that asked him that at a seminar he was teaching. He legit didn't know the man had his own guard named after himself. He was just used to slicing through the mans guard.

Okay maybe, just maybe, you should have gone with something else. But God damn it! this thread is titled Cardio beats RNC and you effectively demonstrated that cardio does not, in fact, beat an RNC. In the long run, that's full on fucking victory. You have crushed your enemies, seen them driven before you, and heard the lamentations of their women!

Also, RNC is a solid thing to teach in a limited amount of time. Super effective, not that hard to master... or master well enough to put your average Joe down anyway.

There weren't exactly lamentations from the women. They all being JJJ, or Karate with the sole exception of the one Aikido/Judo lady, they had never seen a choke so easy. One lady said

I can't believe this works, I don't feel like I'm doing anything at all

So I replied, my 8yr old daughter can tap me with this. She used to try when she was 7 but her arms were to short to lock up right. Which is by the way a true story. After that they doubled their efforts to get it technically right.

And yeah I should have gone with something else, I kinda knew that at the time, but I had had a lesson plan, I really wanted to see if anyone was dumb enough to think cardio could beat it, and I knew GBA had given me an impossible task and I kinda wanted to troll him back. I'll make sure to have my morning coffee next time so I won't be so cranky.

This is the real DLR, not that sport leg entangling shit kids do today. DLR is an old school Vale Tudo guard, porra!!!
