    I was dabbling in lapel stuff without really seeing Keenan work but man seeing just the setup into the lapel guards he does really has helped me change up my game to be much more controlling instead of initiating scrambles. You’ve changed my little purple belt life. Going to have to watch everything now. Already bought my hyperfly gi

    The value level of watching two world level guys compete went from a 5 to a 10 when you broke it down and put logic behind the moves! That stuff isn't discernible to the average mortal at full speed, but when it's a play by play it's jiu jujitsu gold!!!!

They may understand on a viewing level but there's no way this, incredibly inciteful video, will translate to most practitioners but I hope everyone that watches this video reaches this level of understanding the art. This is incredibly advanced insight into one of the single MOST intricate games of human chess in the whole universe. Let's all learn as much as we can from this right now and revisit this video every year to see how much more knowledge we can apply to our game.

    I'm not really familiar with the points system in these tournaments. Anyone mind explaining how Keanan got the 2 points? It seems like he didn't do anything the whole fight except defend, get a penalty and the other guy to 9 advantages?

    • @mofoshrimp
      @mofoshrimp 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Around four minutes into their match, Meregali is standing up and Keenan has reverse de la worm guard. For whatever reason Meregali doesn't like this, so he gives up the position by sitting down and putting his back to the mat. Keenan comes up into top position. This counts as a sweep for Keenan and he gets two points for it (even though Meregali did it willingly).

    • @kalenz100
      @kalenz100 5 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      @@Pskinn advantages are less valuable than points. Only Points make you win the match. IF you and your opponent have the same point score, then advantages are taken in consideration and who has the most advantages wins. If you and your opponent have the same number of advantages the match goes to referee's decision.
      You can get advantages when you get in some slightly more dominant positions like when you flat your opponent's back from top half guard, when you attack threatening submissions that they manage to defend ( if the submission is not considered threatening enough you don't get an advantage), or when you almost get to a dominant position or guard pass but for less than 3 seconds. If you don't secure the pass or the position for 3 seconds or more, they don't give you points but just an advantage. In the match meregalli never secured any position that's why he has just advantages, while Keenan swept him and secured top position granting him 2 points for the sweep
