THiS is crazy interesting. I’ll watch abu dhabi stuff from time to time with not much interest, but now I want to see this stuff live.

i bet the more people get into grappleing the more of this stuff we are gonna see (maybe some day on TV). it’s crazy fun to do, and once you start, the grond game becomes much more intersting and impresive.

I would LOVE to see grappling on tv… c’mon Spike, c’mon Versus, make it happen!!!

Submission grappling is BY FAR my favorite thing about MMA training, and my favorite hobby. I absolutely love it, and I’d love to go to an ADCC or any legit submission wrestling show.

Interesting tidbit here, I seen a “tag team submission grappling” match the other day online. Kind of bizzaire (sp.?)

It was so much fun back in the day when this was all you needed. We spent 90% of the time rolling like this when I fought and we never lost MMA events unless we came up against a superior grappler.

I was really hoping they would have Fredson roll against Glover. Wonder what happened there. Anyways, yea grappling is so fun to both watch and do. You should check out if there are any ADCC trial locations near you. I know Alpha 360 had put up a list a few pages back.

Oh as far as tag team – check out ZST, straight tag team MMA where you can straight up tag in. Also so far the only place with title fights with 5 min, unlimited rounds – someone is getting finished.

nnr: not a lot of people know about ZST REAL MMA TAG TEAM MATCHES!

Grappling is so damn addictive! Grappling competitions on tv would be so amazing! Great idea!

I don’t know about ADCC, but NAGA has contests all over the US. A few guys from my school and I plan on entering one in Orlando in October.

where is vinny’s fight!?

by shamo84 on Jul 15, 2009 5:36 PM EDT reply actions  

what did he do, a ballet?

by shamo84 on Jul 15, 2009 10:52 PM EDT up reply actions  

Can’t seem to find it either. Valverde got him with a 1 point advantage when he went to turtle guard to avoid getting passed.

by NameNotRequired on Jul 16, 2009 12:22 AM EDT up reply actions  

thats the same thing I was about to ask shamo

by Akabane on Jul 15, 2009 6:14 PM EDT reply actions

Anybody know what either of these two weighed in at, coz Bill Grill looked loads bigger but it was difficult to tell with the t-shirts on.
