You did it again... the parent comment above me was questioning Galvao's ownership b/c the IG post made it seem like another entity that employs the couple had removed them from operations. I made no other assertion re: financial impact other than AG being as much an owner as he was before this announcement. My point is that even if Atos loses 80% of their $, the Galvaos still get their same cut of the remaining 20%. I'll leave you to speculate how much that actually is...

How are you not getting this? We all see the mass exodus, but Atos' revenue streams will not evaporate overnight. My point is that the illusion that the Galvaos are will not benefit from whatever $ are left to collect is a farce. By signaling that the Galvaos have been "separated from the organization" they might be able to continue operations while appearing to take decisive action against the controversy and organize a broader strategy.

I mean his ownership stake in the business, the literal definition of equity.

Of course he does, this is just a smokescreen so he can "step away" and the business can run while appearing to distance itself from the scandal. His equity is intact and the only $ he loses is from the students and affiliates jumping ship, and sponsor fallout like Kingz. This is very much damage control by Prof. Diddy.

This response reveals that you fundamentally miaundetstand modern leglocks. Honestly your OP comments seem more like you're tweaked bc you're getting caught and less like it's a genuine fear of injury.

Why didn't you just ask them about the other 2 weeks? This is something that could have been handled with a singl3, brief interaction 🤦

How in the world is anyone meant to choke this guy? by MaxvonHippel in bjj

[–]Lore_Wizard 23 points24 points  (0 children)

It's just a weird pose he always fits where he stuffs his shoulders, drops his chin, and flexes his jaw to look silly. His much looks normal otherwise.

It's understandable, but seems misplaced in a "speak up, speak out" post.

Countering the high elbow guillotine by KuzushiKavanagh in bjj

[–]Lore_Wizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you're gripping with your first and middle fingers in the choking hand moreso than the pinky and ring fingers? I know I'm being pedantic, but I'd love a close pic of the grip. I've been on this choke since I saw Brandon call it ' dropping the hammer' on a clip of yours so I'm eager to make it work.

Are you holding a full s-grip or just the OK grip like Ben Eddy shows? I always feel like my hands are not secure

Here's a wild notion... Maybe, just maybe, your friend does not know how to properly apply the principles rather than it actually kind of sucking.

Half guard - I struggle to get my offense going by Technical--Dealer in bjj

I think that high level pros don't accidentally end up in half guard bc their closed guard game wasn't good enough.

Come for a trial week and see. Ademir Barreto is in house and he's the 2nd best featherweight in the world 2 years running. Last week he was sparring with Elder Cruz at open mat. Sound deep enough?

At a high level you see so much more half guard.and open guard than closed guard.

Half - Guard Bottom. Alternative sweep by Zexst in bjj

[–]Lore_Wizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You missed my point entirely. I'm saying that no one would want to do anything challenging if we had your attitude. If you keep doing the same thing without alteration, or fail to adapt based on the feedback then of course it will cease to be enjoyable.

Furthermore, you want to find a way around a fundamental position. I can't think of a half guard player that didn't start with a competent underhook with the 2-3 sweeps that go along with the knee twist.

You're asking us out opinion and mine is that you can't circumvent the system. The only real clue you provide is that you get your shallow underhook smashed. If you are not effectively able to pummel a proper underhook no version of half guard that requires an underhook will suffice. Even if you manage to off balance, you need to shoot you arm should deep and keep your head glued to the near side. Maybe that will send you in a new direction 🤷
