The Top 5 Combat Systems

[Heuristic]

Also you do know that every form of BJJ competition starts standing......

They mainly pull guard.

Hm. That's an interesting argument. You don't need to spar takedowns in order to be competent at taking people to the ground. You have to train/spar takedowns in order to take people to the ground the way you want. As in, end up in the position you want to end up. You see people fight all the time and end up one the ground. Largely, gravity does most of the work. Then it is up to chance where you end up.

You want to end up in a dominate position. That takes a bit of practice. Same thing in striking. Any moron, with no training can knock someone out. But it takes a bit more skill to do it without hurting yourself, or getting hurt by the other person in the process. Something you don't want to rely on chance for because the alternative is you getting your ass beat.

Just as anybody can take another person down, anybody can STUFF another persons takedown. It cuts both ways.

I have visited schools and asked instructors exactly how much sparring they do standing up, and it varies. It is not uniformly true for all BJJ schools to spar standing. So to think that you can take someone down based on theory and step-by step training is Aikido level naivness

What level are you talking about?
At low levels double leg and body lock tackling works great. Especially especially against the untrained.

Why are you still doing this to yourself? This entire thread has been 7 pages of people ridiculing you. What are you getting out of this?

Gravity hates us all equally but gives ground fighters an edge. There isn't an invisible force holding us up.... but there is one pulling us down.

Who cares if it works on somebody who is untrained? Have a guy who even wrestled informally and recreationally, who has a solid center of gravity, knows the pitfalls, is a good athlete, naturally strong, and a BJJ guy has his work cut out for him.

This is not hard to do, and the Muay Thai stylist didn't have to stand properly (his center of gravity was too high).

I mean I am shit at BJJ but I have subbed a lot of wrestlers that where more athletic than I.

[goodlun]

Well I have. The only time they spar standing is saturdays for guys who are going to compete.

That is 1 more day a week than 99.999% of the population

I can fuck up a lot of people from a good guard pull, just saying.

Eh, it's YMAS so I'mma outnerd you on this one.

Gravity is not a force pulling us down, according to relativity, it only looks like a force.

It's a geometric curve in spacetime caused by warping effects of mass that results in two objects coming together, with the more massive object winning the tug of war. Hence the illusion of a force, but with infinite range.

This is why judo throws work the way they do, ideally you are passing uke along the shortest curved path to the ground, at the same time you are removing the opposing muscular forces that we use to stand, via a sweep, etc.

Xenia Onatopp comes to mind..."she always did like a good squeeze", to quote 007.

Are you an expert in any discipline? Or are you just another moron yammering about things they don't understand?

Saku is a bjj fighter? Then catch really sucks when you take his list of wins away. He did train bjj though.
