Wrestling 🤼 vs BJJ 🥋

[erickrodriguez]

Guy with 5+ years grappling experience beats guys with less than 2 years grappling experience. Who would have thought

[magas]

That’s a decent wrestler competing in a beginners level BJJ competition.

I love sparring with wrestlers. They really bring on the intensity. Really helped me in my last mma fight when I went to the wrestling classes. ☝🏽

Pure Wrestlers that attain bjj knowledge are the deadliest grapplers. Especially in an actual fight or mma. Brutal combo. Wrestling is nearly useless once you already know bjj. But if your foundation is wrestling… the addition of bjj is lethal. I was rolling purples as soon as I learned a few basic submissions in my first two weeks! Personal experience I’m sure others are different but I hear mostly the same from others

Bjj is the art of not hurting your opponent until wrestling came in...

A wrestler that knows jiu jitsu is a beast

[characterstrength]

As a jiu jitsu guy this was basically my first few experiences against wrestlers. They're strong, athletic and powerful AF - I think both sports can learn a lot from each other

Bro going in there with caulis on caulis entering a beginner competition as a bjj guy, meanwhile he's a bloody division one college wrestler😂

I’ve trained BJJ for 6 years. You need to wrestle as Period !

[Kaiviti]

Agree. When you have the offense of a wrestler and the defense of BJJ. You’re going to be a beast in the ground. BJJ love to be on their back while wrestlers love to be on top. Plus having the aggressiveness of a wrestler and cool calm collected of BJJ is mental warfare.

[jonmoris]

the lesson here is...be a hybrid cross train your grappling arts ive done judo bjj and wrestling and it makes a big difference

[chaserohwedder]

Nice of the D1 guy to make it out for the white belt tournament. 😂

[marco]

We had a white belt who was top 10 in state for wrestling. We knew he was a tank in training and would most likely win but we had to put him in white belt division to really see how he was technique wise

[tonylaforte]

The wrestler said "fuck your sandbagging rules" 😂

[bmrz]

Hmmm. Experienced wrestlers with plenty of mat time vs white belts…Interesting.

[SvsaKing]

As a wrestler, the first shot looked like it welcomed a guillotine

[joshualove]

Wrestling/BJJ/Judo
They’re all grappling and have their merits. LEARN THEM ALL.
Great stuff.

[Fefko]

Poor kid joined his first competition, probably paid enough for it too, just to face insecure long-time wrestler boosting his ego in a wrong bracket.

[brandonanderson]

Everyone in the comments acting like this guy showcased high level wrestling when in reality he’s just returning everyone.

[Dollarfightclub]

I saw a really good wrestler who's been grappling for a long time beat up a bunch of white belts with few months worth of experience
