finishersmma.com 10th Planet Bethlehem - JM and Zach are awesome :D instagram @zachmaslany @gracegundrum @jm_holland10p @jon_thor_blank Bjj Heroes - Andre Borges is a cool guy.
Yuasa-Dono is the best female grappler in the world. It is crazy that she could not finish a 12 pounds lighter Gundrun which shows that this teen is the finest talent of the new generation.
I just watched that match again and it was just as awesome the second time as it was the first time. For Grace Gundrum at 16 years old to go head-to-head with Rikako is truly amazing. For those of you who don't know who rikako yuasa is, you should go watch some of her videos. She is a world-class jiu jitsu practitioner. And Grace matched her move for move for 10 minutes. That ref was just ridiculous.
Grace did a great job going against that talent especially coming off injury! The first defense against the triangle was amazing, the composure and ability from both was unreal!
What an incredible performance, match for Grace! A 16 year old Grace, fighting a 29 year old, 4 time WC, to a draw! This is where it was obvious to anyone, she deserved a “Black Belt”! Spectacular! 🇺🇸👍🇺🇸
Its well known in every sport that you must win outright in Japan as as a non japanese in any boxing or mma you have to knock them out anything with judge's or points you will lose. Many athletes including Japanese have said this you have to remember Japan is a national list ethno says .
I like watching women do jiu jitsu because you don't often see a lot of force being used. I do not mean this disparagingly. It's extremely technique oriented, which often leads to more active matches since their use of energy is so efficient. It feels more dense with lessons if observed closely than their average male counterpart. Anyone else feel this way?
Yuasa was dominant throughout the entire fight, turned down Grace's game as she knew all the tricks! but Grace refused to go to survival mode and fought back until the last second against a much more expert and strong opponent...she was already a real champion!!! This fight was so technical that I was lost several times in the leg-fighting game
What a monumental achievement for Grace! She can hang with a multiple-time World Champ. How is that even possible for a teen? That is progression at warp speed. Prodigious talent and skill. It'd be fun to hear what Rikako Yuasa says about her.
Its because this is held in Japan and one of the fighters is from Japan. Also they are more in tune with judo and don't comprehend that jiujitsu is methodical.
I think the intention is to make it aggressive and fun for everyone to watch, not maniacal like so-called grappling tournaments. This is also the fighting style of the tournament organizer, Sakuraba.
Albert hick if Mozart was absolutely outclassed, maybe. She had zero offense and was almost locked in multiple subs. She survived. Barely. I get it cause she’s ten or whatever (joking) but Nicky Ryan is significantly younger than his competition and smokes these dudes. She didn’t even look like she belonged in that match. It looked like the equivalent of a purple belt surviving a round with the coach and people clapping.
Was it? I saw multiple opening that they didn't even try for when I know white belts that would have. Like the baratoplata opening from that first triangle, and later an opportunity for a darce against the 10th planet girl. But instead they were just like sitting there..
@@thekwoka4707 I can't speak to the more technical aspects of the match, but it looked like they were both doing what they could and didn't get frustrated. Neither of them gassed out, either. As you said, they both might have missed opportunities, but the effort and pose were there, imo. Given the nature of the sport, maybe they were overthinking it? It seems like whenever there is an obvious opening, it it likely a trap of some kind. You probably have better insight, as I am just starting.
Hi, the reason for these warnings was that it was the final match and they wanted to motivate the athletes to go for the submission which in turn satisfies the audience.
They have to change the rules, especially since the audience is super knowledgeable about BJJ nowadays and know that it's not all about constantly chasing the sub
@@tekal85 I have to disagree. The first warning came 10 seconds after grace attempted an armbar on rikako. The second was 20 seconds after a neck crank on grace. And rikako was working from side control.
Asian females (maybe the males, too. I don't know) have legs that bend easier at that angle. Positions that would cause me and my sister some pain my (Asian) wife sits in easily. Just a cool little variation in our species, I suppose.
Grace, control the center of gravity. Up or down. I have watched this young lady since she was a young teenager. I’m not dissatisfied. “Silent Assassin”
Everyone talking bad about the ref should look up the rules of Quintet. The ref followed the rules perfectly for the event. This is non points based action prioritizing grappling. Competitors have to keep pushing for submissions. It's a sub attempt is not working, they have to move on to something else or risk a warning. I personally prefer this type of event. It pushes for offense based jujitsu as opposed to defense based jujitsu.
I am not versed with the rules of Quintet or bjj but why was the ref always warning them? from a laymen point of view I saw this contest going either way constantly with no stalemate to warrant standing them up. I thought it was judo that stood you up due to the emphasis on throwing techniques. For me both athletes looked formidable shame about the constant ref interference.
This is the greatest thing I've seen on the grappling mat ever since 2003 ADCC. In Dojo setting, Yuasa would get the young one. Yellow card Nazi was the reason there was no tapout in this.
Every time I watch Grace I get all tenced up like I'm there are trying to help...lol, she gonna be wicked in a year or two .... Send her up for a bit of training with JSP, keep her injury free for as long as possible run her run her run her, a bit more weight training , more air more strength and she be unstoppable....
This looks like trying to solve a puzzle but only the puzzle fights back!
Almost exactly, its a game of chess but the pieces move at .5 seconds per turn and a checkmate can come at anytime
It’s like watching a bouldering competition only the Boulder keeps changing shape.
An escape room with no escape.
🤣🤣🤣
Grace is a living support to my theory that theres a positive correlation between general awkwardness and Bjj talent.
If that were true, I'd be a BJJ master. But I lose to everyone.
🤣😂😅
Have you heard of Asperger's?
N in
Or it's just another adoptee from t h e far East that's been tampered with at birth. Have you heard Grace talk?
Yuasa-Dono is the best female grappler in the world. It is crazy that she could not finish a 12 pounds lighter Gundrun which shows that this teen is the finest talent of the new generation.
umm they both went down to Mayssa Bastos. Mayssa Bastos
as well defeated Grace twice.
Grace is 16 here! Just saying………..
What was crazy is that Liz Carmouche lost to Yuasa by submission just before this. Same tournament but not sure if it was same day.
@@Danny-mg1hu yea kudos to Bastos. But gundrum giving me khabib vibes. When Gundrum reached 22+ she will be a beast
Can you imagine a 15 ft rock python dropping out a tree onto Grace ? Poor snake will never know what strangled him.

Grace didnt flinch when she was caught up in the triangle attempt, sick, most people wouldve panicked. Respect.
Yuasa is world class bjj. This shows the skills of Gundrum as a 16 yo.
A four-time world champion vs a 16 year old. Good job Grace!
Wtf shes 16 going up against a 4x champ why???
@@fengxiong520 because she’s the undefeated silent assassin
But she lost man... Make me angry...
@@fengxiong520 she's younger and more limber its a massive advantage for Grace

7:37 this is the best movement
Lol breakdancing
XD
This is the most luxurious female sparring Grace could've ever wished for. She did amazing surviving that fooking monster in Rikako-Dono
I have no idea what I'm watching, but it's interesting AF.
Same here but apparently ref disagreed
it's between a 29 year old 4 time world champ vs a 16 year old girl.
This referee literally stopped the match both times during positions and transitions that may have decided the match more conclusively
For us new people, can you put time stamps on what you're referring to please?
@Im wearing tights that I borrowed from your mum. Referees are contracted by the athletic commission.
Its well known in every sport that you must win outright in Japan as as a non japanese in any boxing or mma you have to knock them out anything with judge's or points you will lose. Many athletes including Japanese have said this you have to remember Japan is a national list ethno says .
@@Chevalier_knight good on japan
It's not often you watch a draw and not be the least bit disappointed.

How are they getting warnings when they're both in constant motion attacking and defending high-level stuff?
Its because this is held in Japan and one of the fighters is from Japan. Also they are more in tune with judo and don't comprehend that jiujitsu is methodical.

@high horse but tyey didnt invent bjj, they invented jj
@high horse because the b stands for bjapanese
Grace: In the middle of a leg lock escape
Ref: Let’s work
Grace Gundrum defended herself against person who will be legend, and she also will be legend
The best fights are the most evenly matched
Gundrum is like the Mozart of grappling
Albert hick if Mozart was absolutely outclassed, maybe. She had zero offense and was almost locked in multiple subs. She survived. Barely. I get it cause she’s ten or whatever (joking) but Nicky Ryan is significantly younger than his competition and smokes these dudes. She didn’t even look like she belonged in that match.

rikitikirobot idk wtf ur on about “barely survived”
@@rikitikirobot the only joke here is you.
@@rikitikirobot sorry could you send me the link to the match you were watching cause it's clearly a different one than this.
For that 16 year old to go toe to toe with Rikako is awesome .Grace is truly a phenom. She will be as good as she wants to be.
Really really good grappling. World class!
truly top notch
Such movement! It was like watching snakes wrestling. Absolutely amazing, both of them!
How can the ref call “no action”. Does he not have any knowledge of jiujitsu?
He thought this was gonna be an MMA fight!
@@davidf2244 maybe it was Submission Only event?
Николай Великолепный point has
Maybe you dont!!! You watch ufc...thats all. You ended up here on accident lol
Cameron Lowrey wrong, I actually practice Jiu-jitsu, but I was unaware of quintet and the rules
That was an amazing display of skill, poise and conditioning by both athletes.

@@thekwoka4707 Oh man are you ignorant
This is one of the most entertaining bjj match I've seen and the ref calls "no action" 😕 I mean WTF!
So many times I would of been screaming MY KNEE! STOP
eh her hair style is so cute
This is another level , I’m downgrading myselfe ti white belt again
Maybe the ref was standing them up because he wanted to see their striking game.
Rikako f'ing rules. Grace handling this match like she did is amazing!
Grace is only like 16 too. Makes it all the more impressive.
Mad scrambles, that pace they kept the entire match was insane
I did combos with Gracie my first day ever at an MMA class. 10th planet. You have no idea looking at her how solid she is throwing any limb.
Why are they getting warnings from the referee? Aren't they attacking?
I agree, that was unnesassary
Hi, the reason for these warnings was that it was the final match and they wanted to motivate the athletes to go for the submission which in turn satisfies the audience.

@kalle kanin any rule set can be abused. there is no perfect rule set.
OMG, these girls have marvelous cardio!!!
Right. I was thinking the same the whole time
I had to have my dog tell me the play by play on this because he is the only one in my house that can hear this volume.
Am new to grappling and this is one of my favorite matches ever tbh
Cutest fight in existence.
Both are amazing!
goddamn. the cardio is mental i can't go for 3 minutes like that
very impressive.. and she is only 16.. sky is the limit with this one
I love how grace looks scared as hell and or worried.. but little do they know...😳🤯🤫
Gotta love that 10th planet style eddie bravo is a bad mofo along with his students
What a great match. Those 2 are absolutly amazing.
So much back n forth and constant movement.
It's almost like they're break dancing in a way.
Grace Gundrum is one of my Jiu-Jitsu heroes.
A bit too early for that, but she is amazing nevertheless.
Vi K ...agreed, I meant to say one of “my” Jiu-Jitsu heroes. It was a typo.
@@duncansutherland47 I'm being a dick, she is awesome.
Holy fuckin shit. Came here to watch Grace. But both of these athletes are amazing humans wow. Excellence in motion
Toda una guerrera .saludos desde NICARAGUA
grace is giving up more than a 10lbs disadvantage and still made a good fight....wow....great fight by the silent assasin
3:25 yooooooo!!! Her leg dislocates!!
Wasn’t dislocated, just very flexible. Happens to me too.
Asian females (maybe the males, too. I don't know) have legs that bend easier at that angle. Positions that would cause me and my sister some pain my (Asian) wife sits in easily. Just a cool little variation in our species, I suppose.
@@CaptainTass no, you see it's an evolution of the superior species. Maybe you'll get there some day
@@LOCNL0ADED Different people evolved in different ways. Asians aren't made for speed, for instance. We all have our strengths and weaknesses.
No, she is so flexible
This is very interesting. Its like hardcore twister.
Referee just wanted to do the Cha Cha Cha 💃
Only explanation that makes any sense
What fools thumbs downed this. Most exciting roll I have ever seen.
I'm gonna give them the benefit of the doubt that the thumbs down is because of the poor audio quality and even the poorer Reffing.
This looks like Pokemon battles with humans
Grace came to our school in northampton with Jon Trenge of LVWC and she was kicking state place winners asses
Yuasa-Dono is a fycking monster but Gundran is young and hungry.
Grace, control the center of gravity. Up or down.
I have watched this young lady since she was a young teenager. I’m not dissatisfied. “Silent Assassin”
Wow, amazing. Great job by both competitors
なぜか昆虫どうしのバトルが頭に浮かんだww
I got my purple belt just watching that, lol amazing display
I just got my brown belt watching it for the second time lol
2人ともダルそうなのにめちゃくちゃアグレッシブで最高すぎる。笑
Is it me or is this the quietest video on TH-cam?
She must be the most composed grappler on the planet. She has the same face alllllllll the time. Like "yeah, I'm here, time to win.......yawn" lol
Rikako with a size advantage is a scary thing. Would have liked to have seen some Estima attempts, looked like there were some opportunities
Is tickling allowed? I would submit if someone started in on my toes!
I've never even seen half these positions before .. Boo the reff!
That was awesome to watch
Dana white waiting till grace is 18. I can feel he’s scouting her
I surely hope she will not do mma. And stick to the ground game for the rest of her life. This girl is already worldclass..
She actually smiled
I see her technique, and can not help myself from thinking that all men that are treating women wrong should find one like this once.
So is this a chess tournament that require to use the body extremities?

Well that certainly didn't escalate quickly.
Grace z one of hell out of
10th Planet combat athletes.
I extremely go for her.
Rikako also has Black Belt on.
Ah yes. A battle of the rubber people. Very good.
Oh miren, mi futura esposa ;D
💘 to Grace FROM a Wing Chun Senior Student.. martial arts world has attracted an Angel Warrior Queen..
Las dos son tan buenas, que conocen como zafarse de cada ataque de la otra.
Best anime fighting scene
Lame and player out you robot
When is she coming to UFC?
9 year old me trying to twist my older cousin's arm be like:
Young Grace is a credit to BJJ and has a bright future ahead.
When both fighters are just too damned good
Love both
AMAZING BOTH OF THEM;

Always wondered how anacondas fight. Now I know. Superb.
The thumbnail was so cute haha
ガンドラムやばすきぃ!
No
Busque tanto tiempo videos de niñas peleando oficialmente, por fin :,v
I'm such a big fan of her
The first thing you turn off on your camera is bipp sound it makes when it finds focus!

Awesome flow there is one bad thing who is the ref..
