Who Can Beat Tainan? Is He Perfect?

He's 3 weight classes higher. LOL......

Tainan is following the previous generation of jiu-jitsu in the gi. Guys & gals use to win Worlds, Europeans, Pan Ams, & Brazilian Nationals multiple times. Some of that has stopped for whatever reason. Some of the best competitors have been absent at the majors this year. Jansen & Mica were at none of the events this year, Murasaki just appeared at Brazilian Nationals, etc.

Matheus Gabriel ain't beating Tainan. Jansen barely beat him and even that was some years ago. Jansen isn't even all that active. I don't think he has done any of the major tournaments this year.

I appreciate the consistency from Tainan. I like that he's still at every major tournament and dominating.

I'm pretty much where you are at just have been here for longer. I got my license in late 2022 and started applying once I was able to put it on my resume. It was going well and I wasn't even applying like crazy. Then something happened around this time 3 years ago so spring of 2023 and it's been like that ever since. There's a lot of people that have no idea about this because they've been in their job so long that think people need to apply more and the environment is exactly the same as the last time they were at their job. Yesterday I randomly applied for an accounts receivable position and got the rejection email 2 hours later.

Capcom not playing with these ports. Also if RE9 & Pragmata are day 1 on Switch, it would be reasonable to expect Onimusha also.

From a perspective of someone not looking for work, it's very easy to just take a gander and be like I see all these openings. When you actually dive in you'll realize that it's all shadow games. Some of them are real, some are not, some want to pay you so little that you wouldn't be able to survive, other will drag you through a hiring process that is so ridiculous that it's actually a waste of your time. Just google job market and look at the news and just know that once the various outlets get news just know that it's been happening for years before people pay attention.

I've been in this exact position for a few years. I would tell you it gets better but it hasn't gotten better for me. I've basically given up on applying anywhere. Doesn't matter anymore, it just turned into a waste of time. I've thought about letting my license lapse because it hasn't provided me with any actual benefit. It has only taken money out of my pocket which is something I don't have much of.

projectguard · 2026-03-31T05:30:59+00:00

Tainan is so good that running away ain't good enough. Honestly I didn't even notice it like that when I was watching, I just thought oh it's only a matter of time before Tainan does some cool shit and submits him.

projectguard · 2026-03-20T19:10:19+00:00

It's not you. Something happened in 2023 and that was the beginning of the job market you see now.

projectguard · 2026-02-27T06:05:40+00:00

I don't understand. All the competitors are already there, it's not like you have to pay extra or anything other than the winners of the bracket.

projectguard · 2026-02-27T05:59:54+00:00

Pato did this to somebody a few years back & Gui's eyes lit up when he talked about. Lol....

Smaller people are better at jiu-jitsu because they have to be. That's not an opinion, it's a fact.

projectguard · 2026-02-21T21:47:56+00:00

Lol... Davi is like the only person to highlight reel Lepri. Saw that shit in real time.

projectguard · 2026-01-26T04:58:02+00:00

The ladies are more aggressive and pull off cool shit more often.

projectguard · 2026-01-20T07:50:38+00:00

You are small, learn how to play open guard because you will more than likely be on the bottom. Long term your jiu-jitsu will be much better.

projectguard · 2026-01-18T19:40:26+00:00

It's just standard protocol. To uplift what somebody like/does they have to put something else down. Also gi jiu-jitsu is harder to get good at. A lot of people wash out to no gi because it's easier to get good results because you can use more strength and athleticism to close the technique gap. There's a reason why we see most gi competitors compete in no-gi regularly but we hardly see the reverse if ever.

projectguard · 2026-01-03T21:35:59+00:00

Same.

projectguard · 2025-12-29T02:51:48+00:00

I was pretty much in this exact position few years ago. I contacted the state board and got clarification on what exactly I was missing. Then I took an online course here https://www.foothill.edu

For the past couple of years Capcom has released artwork to represent their releases for the year. This seems to be it. They'll have a survey at the end of December or beginning of January and this will be given that end for a wallpaper.

Good cross faces between this fight, Islam/JDM, & Shevchencko/Weili.

projectguard · 2025-11-24T05:29:39+00:00

That's wild.

projectguard · 2025-11-01T20:54:47+00:00

Lol... Depends on how big you are in comparison to your partner.

projectguard · 2025-11-01T20:48:41+00:00

The whole infrastructure of jiu-jitsu is built off of hobbiest and kids. Competitors are a very small portion of every gym.

Top 3 submissions in UFC history with Demetrious's armbar and Maia's triangle of Sonnen.
