Is BJJ "Arrogance" ruining BJJ?

“there is nothing outside of yourself that can ever enable you to get better, stronger, richer, quicker, or smarter. Everything is within. Everything exists. Seek nothing outside of yourself.”

So where's your "quick death" now?

[Dr. Gonzo]

I mean the move to the combative's belt vs the blue belt was still likely a wise move on their parts.
If nothing to cut down on the controversy that spread around the internet.

Their blue belt test is fucking hard.

I would need to study to the test to pass it.

And, I am not new at this.

It's 4+-dimensional.

In fact, time is the critical dimension when it comes to positioning. Endurance and willpower are not techniques, they are a state of mind.

Of course you knew that. You're the master of the basics.

[W. Rabbit]

No. Just no.

You do not know enough about jiu-jitsu to speak in the declarative mode.

Truthfully, neither do I. Dr. Gonzo and BKR have more far more experience than I do, and they both say the same thing at various times.

Do not try to be something you are not. Do not try to know what you haven’t learned.

Just be.

ORLY? “Perceive that which cannot be seen with the eye.”?

Kthxbye. Next.

As for Imanari, Tonon beat Imanari, at leg locks, so...

And fairly quickly......

Are we assuming he is or is not allowed to sit right to guard?

[BKR]

At a more basic level...

Oh so your wont of those "Sports" BJJ guys I knew their was something off about you =)

Great question.

Why not?

Helio employed this strategy with Sato,

the undercard man that Helio had to match against twice,

and defeat in the second match, by pulling guard into a cross choke,

that rendered Sato unconscious,

to earn the right to face Kimura.

From my POV you're all sport BJJ guys.

Every last fucking one of you.

Especially you.

My missing teeth,

and the knuckle on the other side of my right hand,

say otherwise.

You're a hobbyist, like me. Give it up, already, Gonzo.

We all have injuries, some in the body, heart, or head.

I may be a hobbyist now,

but I was paid to fight 28 times,

and I also fought anybody that came in the door for the Gracie Challenge countless times.

Hush now, Rabbit.

Proprioception and kinesthetic awareness, non verbal cognition.

Nothing mysterious or philosophical involved.

No need for Musashi.

How so?

Proprioception and kinesthetic awareness, non verbal cognition.

No need for Musashi.

We certainly know that Musashi was great,

because in regular Japanese style,

he told us so, in his autobiography.

And his modest gospel,

was then repeated many times,

and even used as anecdotal reason to edify other talespinners,

such as the Jo man who autobiographically said he fought Musashi to a draw

with a shortened stick in their second match, after being soundly beaten in the first.
