  Buchecha revealed that he started planning the jump to MMA in 2013, and trained with the likes of  Cain Velasquez ,  Daniel Cormier , and Luke Rockhold at AKA, but a knee injury suffered during the 2015 IBJJF World Championship forced him to postpone the idea. “That’s not how I wanted to retire [from jiu-jitsu],” Almeida said. “If I had won the Worlds like I had planned I would have eight world titles in 2015, but that changed my plans completely. That’s not how I wanted to retire, leaving the arena on a stretcher instead of smiling and celebrating like I always did.” Almeida’s long recovery culminated in winning double gold in 2016, however conversations with “major promotions” in MMA left him dissatisfied. “I was treated like anyone else, like another one,” said the jiu-jitsu superstar. “I’m not just someone else, right? For everything I’ve done in the sport, I must have more recognition. That let me down a lot at the time. “But it was just one promotion. They played their role. Th

  Positions for less athletic people: A word that gets thrown around a lot in Jiu jitsu bus “athleticism.” No one ever tries to define what they mean by this but generally it refers to the an athletes potential for movement - how fast they can move, what range of motion can they move through, how far they can move via running or jumping and for how long etc etc. In general, movement is aided by space that permits greater freedom of movement. Any kind of physical encumbrances that reduce movement potential is the enemy of athleticism. This provides an important general rule - THE MORE CONNECTION THERE IS BETWEEN YOUR BODY AND YOUR OPPONENTS, THE MORE YOU WILL REDUCE HIS ATHLETICISM. So if you are older, slower, and just plain less athletic than your opponent - you want to maximize connection between your body and his to undermine his athletic advantage. So the best positions for older, slower athletes to work successfully against younger, faster, more explosive, more flexible opponents

  Don’t tolerate controlling/dangerous grips: Oftentimes in Jiu jitsu you will feel an opponent get a good grip that feels like it controls you in some way that signals danger - a strong passing grip for example. Don’t accept it - peel it off immediately to deny the advantage. You don’t want to degenerate into a negative player who only focuses on grip denial at the expense of offense, but still, you have to take care of defensive concerns early before they become insurmountable problems, even if if means backing off the offense for a short time. Here, Georges St Pierre peels a controlling hand that could be setting up a guard pass off his knee - once having done so, he can go back into offense with confidence.

  Hands and feet: when you use your arms to grab something you will usually use your hands as the connection to the object you are grabbing. So if you want to pick up your briefcase - you will use your hand to grip the handle and your arms (in unison with other body parts) to do the lifting - the arms do the heavy work, the hands provide the connection. The legs and feet operate in a similar way from open guard position. In most cases, Your legs do the heavy work, but the feet provide the connection to the opponent. Knowing this, when you are passing open guard, you must be mindful to control your opponents feet as much as possible and seek to prevent them connecting effectively to your body (usually your legs). Foot control is essential to success. If the opponents feet can connect securely to you, he will be able to use his legs very effectively to cause you many problems; but if the feet can’t make effective connection, it will be more difficult for the legs to play an effective rol

  Marcus "Buchecha" Almeida, 13-time world champion with kimono and four-time un-kimono black belt, talked about how his transition to the new modality has been.  - In sparring, I am learning a lot. The master Katel Kubis, since the first day I arrived at American Top Team, embraced me and has taught me a lot about muay thai. I'm feeling the evolution, but of course it's not my specialty, I'm not going to change 17 years of Jiu-Jitsu for one year of Muay Thai. But I am feeling comfortable, and it is easier to use wrestling and jiu-jitsu. We are fighting to change belt, and every once in a while I joke that I gained a little weight, that I became a grimy blue (laughs). I remember that, in the beginning, every sparring session I would end my day with a terrible headache, but now I don't feel this pain anymore, I feel this evolution - said Buchecha. Buchecha joked that the former UFC and Pride champion,  Rodrigo Minotauro,    already "tested" him for MM

  On his recent Joe Rogan podcast, Rickson revealed that he supports the leg lock craze: “I like leg locks. Back in the day, I was introduced to kneebars by Erik Paulson and Shooto. I started using them on my students and was very successful.” He also gave a realistic view on leg locks: “Leg locks won’t happen when you have two high level partners who both have high knowledge of leg locks. They only work on those who don’t know them…” Joe Rogan agreed with Rickson: “To prove your point, leg lock expert Craig Jones said the DDS members don’t even go for the legs anymore on each other in training because they are too hard to catch on each other…” Casa De Luta FightKlub (Eingang im Hinterhof) Mainzer Str. 30 66111 Saarbrücken Website: https://www.bjjsaarbruecken.de/ Email: acasadeluta@gmail.com

  Nick Rodriguez shared the story of his introduction and rise in jiu-jitsu before the conversation shifted to the DDS split. Rodriguez told Chambers, “There were some issues within the team. Certain people had certain issues with… really one person. And, you know, I think of any… you know… you gotta cut the poison out. Whatever’s hurting the team or hurting the majority of the people, you kinda have to eliminate that and focus on competition. So, you know, at B-Team, we’re focused on getting better, and that’s about all we’re focused on.” Rodriguez also said that he wouldn’t be training with Ryan for the upcoming ADCC World Championship, adding that it’s more likely that they’d be competing against each other at the competition. However, this didn’t appear to be daunting for Rodriguez — instead, he noted that his goal was to be the best grappler in the world, and of course, it’s only logical that this could mean facing off against his former teammate one day. When asked about how the

Machado, a seventh degree red and black belt, dominated the international Brazilian Jiu Jitsu competition and is now one of the most well-respected coaches in the world. He has academys in California where he trains some of the best Brazilian Jiu Jitsu exponents in the world. Hollywood actor Ashton Kutcher is one of his clients. “I first came to Australia in 1993 and since then I’ve fell in love with Australia,’’ Machado said yesterday. “I was able to help start Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in Australia and it’s great to see now that almost every state has Brazilian Jiu Jitsu schools. “This is my first visit to Bendigo and it’s great to see Brazilian Jiu Jitsu developing here.” Bendigo Brazilian Jiu Jitsu chief instructor Stewart Moulden is coached by Richard Norton, who is Machado’s most senior student. “Jean Jacques is one of the greatest Brazilian Jiu Jitsu fighters of all time,’’ Moulden said. “To have him here in Bendigo to make our club an official affiliate (of the Machado school) is a g

  I remember my beginning in Jiu-Jitsu, back in the early 1980s. I was a newbie at Carlson Gracie's team in Copacabana, and I witnessed several guys from other disciplines show up at the academy to test what "this Jiu-Jitsu" was all about. Most of them were karate fighters. They showed up for a first training session, a "check-up", and Carlson always assigned one of us, still newcomers, to take care of the job: Murilo Bustamante would come, or me, or Wallid, among others from that bunch of newcomers. The newcomers, in fact, knew nothing about the ground, and those were challenges that made us feel what Jiu-Jitsu was capable of, against those athletes who were good on their feet. We would just put them down and finish them. These were the preliminaries of vale-tudo. And it was all-encompassing. More experienced, in 1996, I fought the first IBJJF World Jiu-Jitsu Championship as a black belt, and had the honor of winning, on the legendary tatami mats of the Tijuca

  - The biggest mental challenge I had in life was in the fight against King Zulu in Brasilia, because I yellowed at the end of the first round, and my father made me see that I could win that fight through my mental strength. I finished the first round dead, without strength, I told my father that I couldn't take it anymore and he made me see that I could overcome myself. From then on I had the vision that mental work would be fundamental for me to win any fight, against anyone. Rickson also talked about his book "Respire", which will be released on September 15 all over Brazil, in which he tells his story, his mistakes and successes and approaches, among other points, the death of his son Rockson, in 2000. The jiu-jitsu red belt also revealed that he doesn't know if his son Kron, a UFC featherweight, will fight again. - He is living in Montana, and I have been letting him have his space to grow as a man and as an athlete. I don't press for career information, an

  Was ist brasilianisches Jiu Jitsu? Wie der Name schon sagt, ist das brasilianische Jiu Jitsu eine echte gemischte Kampfsportart, die eine Kombination aus dem traditionellen japanischen Jiu Jitsu (oder eigentlich Judo) und mehreren zusätzlichen Kampftechniken ist, die von den Gracie-Brüdern entwickelt wurden, einer Gruppe von fünf Geschwistern, die den Sport ursprünglich vor etwa 100 Jahren in Brasilien entwickelt haben. BJJ ist zwar eine zusammengesetzte Kampfsportart, hat aber eine recht lange Tradition und Geschichte. Darin unterscheidet es sich vom UFC-Kampf, der zwar auf viele alte Disziplinen zurückgreift, aber erst vor relativ kurzer Zeit entwickelt wurde und in den 1990er Jahren seine erkennbare Form erhielt.  Das brasilianische Jiu Jitsu hingegen kann auf eine rund 100-jährige Entwicklung zurückblicken. Es basiert im Wesentlichen auf dem japanischen Kodokan-Judo (wobei die Unterscheidung zwischen Jiu-Jitsu und Judo in diesem Zusammenhang verwirrend ist) und ist eine Kampfspor

  “Since Khabib has been saying he is the greatest lightweight of all time and I am number 2 best lightweight many people have been asking me why didn’t Khabib fight Usman for the 170 pound belt or compete for 170 belt like I did many times… In my humble opinion it is because he is not proficient and confident in jiujitsu I believe the reason behind Khabib not fighting Usman is because he does not know jiujitsu like I did and he is not comfortable fighting off his back against someone who is bigger and stronger than him like I did many many times in my career. I fought at 170 185 and heavyweight and every fight I had to fight from my back and survive and come back and fight harder if I was to get a victory. It’s because of my jiujitsu black belt experience and fighting in my weight and absolute division for years that always prepared me for this… Gracie jiujitsu and Brazilian jiu-jitsu alone is not enough to be UFC champion but to choose one system BJJ is still the greatest self defens
