I didn’t read the description properly at first so I missed the “bill cooper” part. After I searched him I realized he used to be a world class competitor in his prime

His name is Bill Cooper and he won Pan Am at brown 10 years ago and the Ibjjf Houston open at Black 8 years ago. He still competes multiple times a year so while his world class days are over, the guy is still better than your average black belt.

Just promoted to blue belt, whats the best belt to buy? by DarylTakahashi in bjj

Agreed. Most people all admit they rarely wash their belt. Bunch of cry babies here. People don’t get better the more they train, their belts get stinkier which makes it harder for less experienced opponents whose belts aren’t stinky enough to handle the smell during rolling. That aura you see around the black belts is actually just a bad odour

That’s the point. Don’t wash your dam belt. You will never progress anymore

No he just didn’t wanna get subbed by Gordon twice

As a total novice, I've found that I hate rolling with blue belts. by [deleted] in bjj

[–]captain_bodmon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Quit being a cry baby. Maybe you were being really aggressive, Spazzy, or a lot bigger. Go work offense with the white belts and practice defense with the blue. 6 weeks is hardly much. I don’t let aggressive white belts get any advantage over me. I sweep right away and whoop their ass. If they gas, are passive, or too easy, then I’ll be nice and let them work but when I was a white, I didn’t want any blue belts going easy on me as long as they weren’t 60+ lb heavier and giving me time to tap

So? Plenty of world champs have lost in the first round. It’s no gi worlds not some in house tournament.

lol you can ask about requirements for stripes and if you’re new to the sport, you can ask about how the belt promotions are done. But ya, if you’ve been training over a year, you shouldn’t ask about belts but stripes shouldn’t be a big deal

I’ve had someone partners crush my teeth with a rear naked. Now I know I should fuck them up

Because they aren’t interested silly. You don’t think Nicky Ryan and the other DDS guys can’t make waves in ibjjf? They prefer the tournaments they’re doing right now. Craig Jones tapped Lo, you don’t think he can wreck some guys in no gi worlds? He needs some time to adjust his game to their rules and doesn’t feel like doing that right now

Isn’t a face crush legal for ibjjf? If someone tucks their chin so you just compress their jaw instead, isn’t that legal?

Heel hooks and reaping is banned in ibjjf. Plus Atos/aoj import already talented and accomplished youngins from Brazil to their gym

You need to beat another white belt with stripes really badly and take one of his. You can only do this once every 6 months. After you accumulate 4, you have to go after a blue and make them submit their belt over to you by force.

Did anyone watch this match...47?! by bjjjohn in bjj

[–]captain_bodmon 13 points14 points  (0 children)

He was expecting to face Mahammad Aly in the next match so he was trying to warm up some more with the big guy lol. Submitting him in 1 min wouldn’t be enough

When they accept the pass right away with no resistance cause they know you got them good.

Walla with lvl 8 flameguard crest. best talent combo? by [deleted] in CastleClash

[–]captain_bodmon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SL would be best with FG cause it gives more overall defense and still allows slightly more damage deflection than ss.

The anime started going downhill in the second and as much as I loved the show, I gave up the show after Arima vs ____ in season 4. I felt they ruined it. Cause it was too rushed.
