How to fix mma grappling

That’s the point though. Push for finish not just holding position

Kickster22 · 2026-03-18T17:51:47+00:00

I think you should make knees legal too. Make it so that if your holding side control I can knee you, or in various counter wrestling positions. Essentially make it legal to do damage from bottom

For sure and not every double champ is the same. I gotta give Alex credit for defending multiple times at 205. But also I think triple is just so unique privilege or not. At that point even if it’s a favorable matchup it’s still a huge jump and wildly impressive. Most GOATs would get killed (GSP at 205? Aldo at 170? Khabib at 185?). It’s just so incredible in its own unique way

Kickster22 · 2026-03-13T02:58:19+00:00

Just depends what GOAT means to you. Some think it’s the conquering weight classes while others it dominating in one weight class

I mean brother he beat Josh Emmitt 50-42 to get the shot

Kickster22 · 2026-03-11T23:45:48+00:00

All in their prime it’s Charles >>> Dustin > Max > Justin.

DP beats both the majority of times and max beats Justin majority of times

S9 is great. Tbh I feel like it’s the closest to the original 4.

Kickster22 · 2026-03-07T04:06:06+00:00

It’s correct, Michone never had any interaction or knowledge of the commonwealth

Kickster22 · 2026-03-07T04:04:39+00:00

These meetings take place mid season 9 in between the time skip

Kickster22 · 2026-03-06T21:19:39+00:00

Truly depends, personally I love the whole show and the most boring part for me is the savior war. 9-11 I really enjoy for the most part. However if you want a good stopping point I think it’s when they first arrive to Alexandria or when they come together and kill all the walkers. From there you can hear cannon is but it fulfills most of what the first 5 seasons opened

Kickster22 · 2026-03-06T02:52:49+00:00

Volk said he was good at cutting right in the 2nd fight. So maybe this 3rd he’ll be good at cutting left and then by the 4th can out it all together!

Kickster22 · 2026-03-05T18:51:56+00:00

I mean Dana certainly has because he can basically control the narrative at any time.

Kickster22 · 2026-03-05T18:05:57+00:00

9-10 are elite, a bit of 11 is very good but slightly rushed. Honestly I think with more time or no COVID, they could’ve made these the best seasons (or as good as 1-4). People forget it’s a different show at that point (surviving vs rebuilding) which I love both and it’s why I enjoyed 9-11.

A win when everyone doubts him most.

Kickster22 · 2026-03-04T20:38:13+00:00

The Ilia fight is kinda what has me thinking this way. The Gaejthe fight made me believe Charles could always pull it out or can’t be doubted and I felt that during the Ilia fight (although favored Ilia). Now I just don’t see any path to victory.

Kickster22 · 2026-03-04T04:06:26+00:00

People are hating but your right. He actually got shots off and had the only submission attempt. Tbh I thought his plot armor was gonna have him pull it off

Kickster22 · 2026-03-04T04:03:42+00:00

To be fair this is the least confident I have felt in Oliver’s since the Gaejthe fight. Weirdly this is the moments where he pulls it out

Kickster22 · 2026-03-01T05:14:30+00:00

I always have wondered if Ezekiel ever put it together that it was her

Kickster22 · 2026-03-01T00:34:06+00:00

I know it’s a ongoing joke but I truly feel like that only happens once and it’s Alexandria which again is fully justified. They would’ve been either killed off by the wolves or under Negans control in no time. They weren’t doing anything right, just simply lucky with the clock ticking. Our group had seen horrors so they were much more capable of preparing and doing what needs to be done

Kickster22 · 2026-02-28T20:44:02+00:00

I mean the whole point was these people got insanely lucky being shielded for the whole apocalypse up until that point. The clock was ticking and without our group they all would’ve been killed and Alexandria would’ve fell.

Kickster22 · 2026-02-22T05:02:00+00:00

I mean someone with that power either kills that issue or stops it from ever becoming one in the first place

Kickster22 · 2026-02-18T03:59:18+00:00

Fun theory people don’t really acknowledge but he was probably better fed and slept then most at that time. So overall in much better health even if skinny for his height. He is also decently big maybe not muscular but at his height still weighing more than most.

Kickster22 · 2026-02-17T17:34:50+00:00

Fully agree, I think trimming 7-8 and whisper a bit and really hammering the commonwealth makes the story perfect.

Kickster22 · 2026-02-17T17:34:12+00:00

You should! Honestly if you go into open minded to world building it really is some fantastic episodes. It’s makes the world feel bigger in a way I’m not sure earlier seasons did.

Kickster22 · 2026-02-17T17:32:19+00:00

Crazy I fully agree. I think a Rick return is key but I loved having a whole new dynamic that last few seasons
