Damn i'm a blue belt and have been learning a lot from her wrestling matches And to see her try bjj is just amazing Her wrestling plus some subs will just be lethal
I am a bit disappointed they didn't show any training/sparring footage of her, but I'm glad to hear her finding a new passion in BJJ. Hopefully she's developing a good guard game, but every time Unity is mentioned, I think of their lack of AC and people taking showers in their gis and then walking back onto the mats. Disgusting.
@@McinChikin Dude, go look up the video. They cool off in the middle of practice by walking into the shower with their gi on and then stepping right back out onto the mats. I think they keep their AC off.
Wrestling, especially at high levels, self selects and weeds out lesser athletes. There are plenty of hobby BJJ participants who compete at large tournaments. It's pay to play.
She'll need to start at blue belt because of her college-level and above experience. The same goes for anyone who did MMA as a pro. I'll edit by writing "Damn, imagine entering a blue belt division as a girl and you have to compete against her."
She actually said "feel" but she's got an accent. She doesn't usually shoot from outside, but instead enters ties and takes the openings available in the flow versus a "force" wrestler where they are super deliberate and try to take the positions they want. Guys like Kyle Snyder and Zain Rutherford and even Jordan Burroughs I consider force wrestlers, versus feel wrestlers like David Taylor, Jason Nolf, Bo Nickal etc...where they have a bag from a variety of positions and can take whats there versus having to physically impose their will and taking what they want.
BJJ is the easiest sport have you ever seen a jiu jitsu guy transfer to. Olympic wrestling or Judo? Also where do you guys come from? What you guys do is Kosen Judo/ luta livre and catch.
It's a sport anyone can get into and do. Not so with Olympic sports, which is only for black belts and elite athletes. It isn't luta livre because there isn't striking. Go grapple a BJJ black belt world tournament medalist and tell us it was the easiest.
@@kommisar. while that’s true, my point still stands. Why would an Olympic gold medalist and active Olympic wrestler start gi when it would be an easier transition to no gi? You catch what I’m saying? I’m sure it’s not off the table to further expand her Jiu jitsu into gi but it wouldn’t translate well when a lot of wrestling is easily transferable to no gi rather than gi

Greatest thing for jiu jitsu. I’ll watch every match of Helen’s. Purely for the journey……

I hope the blue belt division is working on their guard pulls.
You can watch those tournaments and see that they already do that.

Young champion 🏆💯🥋🤼♀️
We visited her old wrestling club and trained. No wonder she is so good!
No training footage?
The hype!!! im looking forward to see Helen compete in jiu jitsu in the near future
Shows you how much tougher wrestling is. Tried jiu-jitsu because she was injured and couldn't wrestle 😂

Welcome to Bjj Helen
Good Luck in all of your Bjj Gi & No-Gi Grappling Matches Helen
That’s crazy !!
Give her 6 months at Jits and she will destroy the competition.
I'm in Vegas. What day is she competing? I'll go watch. She will win just from takedowns and evading submissions.

Welcome to bjj! I had to learn to slow down when starting bjj.
Damn, imagine entering a white belt division as a girl and you have to compete against her.
Now imagine being the coach and not knowing who Helen is. Just go take her down and stay on top! I can hear it already.

what does the term 'field' wrestler mean?
She actually said "feel" but she's got an accent. She doesn't usually shoot from outside, but instead enters ties and takes the openings available in the flow versus a "force" wrestler where they are super deliberate and try to take the positions they want. Guys like Kyle Snyder and Zain Rutherford and even Jordan Burroughs I consider force wrestlers, versus feel wrestlers like David Taylor, Jason Nolf, Bo Nickal etc...where they have a bag from a variety of positions and can take whats there versus having to physically impose their will and taking what they want.
wrestling in the field
omg the interviewer has a mic this time
HAh, wonderful. Firemans carry incoming!
Wait…so she said “I’m injured what can I do?” Dr says “jiu jitsu”!? Haha that’s like the last thing you want to do injured.
''For you.''
-in Bane's voice
I like to imagine the Doctor's response was ironic and she just didn't get the tone and will soon dominate the sport
@@mrsorg87 BJJ is just soft.
And mostly dangerous because people spar recklessly with a ton of ego.
@@Reflectionmaterial Butt Scooting and pulling Guard is soft it makes the sport look bad.
@@Reflectionmaterial ...like wrestling brings no ego to the mat.

....but is she a guard puller???
😂

Time to put the Gi on and actually do jiujitsu.
Better without the Gi. Gi bjj is slowly dying and not exciting with all the grabbing for dear life
@@ticoman12 No, not really, and no gi is far less exciting to watch as guys just slip out of everything and constantly reset positions.
She’s an Olympic wrestler. It’s better to transition to No Gi before anything else. It’s not off the table I’m sure.
@@joshuaroun14 It's much easier to transition from gi to no gi than vice-versa.

More kimono please!
Jiu-jitsu > wrestling
Different goals, different sports.
You are Greek my lady... Not American... And I love you!
I'd love to work in her guard😂😂😂
