      Not necessarily pretending. Just because he’s a white belt in BJJ doesn’t mean he’s new to grappling. He could be skilled in Catch Wrestling for instance. Not all white belts are built the same.

      @@darkcircle899 I totally agree you know the thing is it’s like as a wrestler as a Sambo guy as like a guy that does catch wrestling it’s all grappling a judo Guy! He absolutely could have a lot of that kind of stuff and I think he has a lot of wrestling experience or something but the thing is a lot of Jujitsu guys Pooh Pooh that but then when it comes to this and they say oh well what about that that guys doing this and blah blah blah. The thing is they need to have more wrestling understanding of grappling understanding from different styles in jujitsu. Don’t be like judo and just because a wrestler can take them down outlaw all wrestling moves to do takedowns in judo. Learn how to defend yourself versus it mean there’s so much good things that you can teach both sides of this! So the big thing is last class that I was teaching it was about not letting anybody ever put their arm behind your head, never ever let your opponent put their hand in front of your neck inside control or when they have your back or anything. Professor Pedro Sauer would always tell me don’t have them put their dirty feet on you so those are very good things to work on when you’re trying to be better at your jujitsu. Then there was a lot of times when guys had like a lot of different concepts and different things they could’ve done one of my students sent me this and I was looking it over and I decided it class I will talk about a blast double and I will talk about how to defend myself versus that as being a multi state wrestler the rest of the college and has been wrestling since I was four years old but yet I’m a black belt in Jujitsu! I told my student I said OK look over this video and tell me what you would do if you were one person or the other and then we can talk about it that way I can get my students to really see more of what could happen or what could not happen and then I can also teach more things to them and help them get better at jujitsu

      @@victor_tempestbjj You should consider a wrestler isn't going to compete with zero experience. they learn how to use the Gi too and they have a background to learn more quickly than average. I'm 16-0 and never been scored on because of wrestling I did forfeit once due to injury while taking someone's back because I have a bad knee but it was a best of 3 and I won the other 2 matches 12-0 and 18-0. People think choking a college wrestler would be easy but they don't consider that EVERYONE tries to choke us off our shot so we' get good at defending it fast and a lot of chokes are "dirty" wrestling techniques that we're familiar with. I won a 64 man IBJJF world championship at blue belt after training a few months 6 matches without giving up a single point because I"m a college wrestler. My hardest 2 matches were against college wrestlers. If anything it was unfair to my opponents that I had 25 years of grappling experience and they had less than 4. Most black belts imo shoot worse than JV college wrestlers.

      @victor_tempestbjj 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      @@ShawnSwander That's a really valid point, I can't argue with that. I guess in my head I consider the belt to be based off what an individual knows technique-wise and the ability to be able to use it in practice as opposed to utilizing knowledge from different sports/martial arts. This is similar to Judo, we have a lot of Judoka in my club and even the black belt Judokas put on their white belts for BJJ, same goes the other way around, we have a black belt in BJJ who puts on his white belt for Judo. Granted it's not quite as similar as wrestling and BJJ, I hope my point comes through as well. Maybe start them at 4 stripes white LOL but I think to be a blue belt, they need to be able to fundamentally showcase all the basic submissions, sweeps, escapes and whatnot

    • @ShawnSwander
      @ShawnSwander 2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      @@victor_tempestbjj Belt rank kind of depends on the teacher and the student. If a student isn't going to compete it's probably more based on their knowledge of techniques and time in rank. If you compete you need your belt rank to reflect your degree of competition more of you'll be sandbagging or losing all your matches. I'd say my rank mostly reflects competition level I'm a brown belt but my judo throws are terrible because my wrestling background and 10 years as a wrestling coach with smaller athletes makes it hard for me to do throws that land on the opponent because I can't really practice them without hurting someone. I also can do a lot of judo throws but I don't know the name of the throws very well because we call them something else in wrestling. Also my guard is weaker than my top game because no one ever takes me down so I never play guard unless I pull. So I guess that's why it's a martial "art" everyone has strong sides and weak sides.

      Not Necessarily sandbagging. This guy could literally just be someone who has done wrestling. I would actually say it’s likely he did wrestling to a high level with a shot like that. I know of 0 guys who just train BJJ and actually have a good shot. Wrestling gives you a huge leg up I was good enough to be state champion in my state and wrestle in College. When I went to a BJJ studio/gym or whatever it’s called I could hang with almost anyone in the room. On my feet I could tool on black belts. On the ground I had good body awareness and submitting me was hard for most people. The reality is he could literally be new to BJJ but just an experienced wrestler and have this same outcome. That was a lot to defend some guy I don’t know but people said the same thing about me in my early competitions I competed in, and it’s not cool to say someone is cheating because they are better than other people.

    Respect to the lighter guy who escaped a grip of submission attempts. Also, college level wrestlers do not belong in white belt divisions. Side note.

  • @lenonkitchens7727
    @lenonkitchens7727 2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Eh, a lot of those takedowns looked like wrestling takedowns to me. So, imo, there's two possibilities. He's a legitimate white belt who is also a very good wrestler, or he's sandbagging and should have earned his blue a long time ago. Maybe he's at one of those schools that won't rank up until you win a tournament.

    • @jaredlynch2904
      @jaredlynch2904 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Agreed, competent with double leg, foreman's, and other takedowns. Was not comfortable on his back, unable to maintain hooks, failed to execute head & arm triangle, and other submissions. The necktie was cool and might be something he thinks is cool finish so practices a lot. Clearly a gi white belt in jiu jitsu or the opponent would have not been able to scramble and escape despite all the fabric friction and abundance of available but unemployed controlling grips.

    • @lenonkitchens7727
      @lenonkitchens7727 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@jaredlynch2904 I found that he has a channel on YT that has one video. It's titled something like "wrestler turned whitebelt". The video seems to be highlights from this same tournament. So yeah, that's confirmed. :)

  • @blackwasp8335
    @blackwasp8335 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    This guy has some type of judo or wrestling background, he shouldn't be competing at a white belt level. he's sandbagging big time. the jiujitsu white belt did a great job defending.

  • @ShawnSwander
    @ShawnSwander 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    This is like lying about your handicap in gold or pool. He’s got a lot of wrestling experience. The lat drop he hit is a move i couldn’t pull off and I’m a 3 time state champ with a lot of D1 wrestling experience. He’s probably legitimately a decent blue belt though he is making mistakes he’s on his knees and chasing chokes that are wasting his time. So its not like he’s lying by 2 or 3 ranks. Most divisions requested wrestlers like this to compete at blue belt.

    Why would you want to compete against white belts when you're clearly not a beginner? I guess it's the same kind of person that installs aimbot and enters public servers to "own noobs". Not cool.

  • @Omgiamsotriggered
    @Omgiamsotriggered 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    A total mismatch by the promotion, dude is an obviously very good wrestler with years of training and has no business being in the white belt bracket. Its totally discouraging for the newer white belts and let alone dangerous because youve got people competing for their first time after training for few months and a dude pretending to be a white belt comes to ragdoll them and suplex them around. What even is the point of belt categories if u can just sign up for any u like.
