Mr. Mike Posted December 30, 2004 Posted December 30, 2004 you'r ein school? Go for the wrestling team...you will learn invaluable technique...such as how to cope with what you mentioned. And it's free. When a man's fortunate time comes, he meets a good friend;When a man has lost his luck, he meets a beautiful woman.-anonymous
SevenStar Posted December 30, 2004 Posted December 30, 2004 His testicles will be near you no matter what. As to the rest sure you may get your arm broken...better than to get killed though. try to hit them - you'd be surprised at the results... in a proper mount, my knees are diggin into your armpits. it will be a chore for you to hit me anywhere at all.from side mount, the hips are pressed to the ground AND my knee is in your armpit- you won't be reaching them from there either. The most feasible place is if you are in my guard - and that' may be where you have the highest chance of getting your arm broken by extending it to hit me in the nads...
SevenStar Posted December 30, 2004 Posted December 30, 2004 And it may be quicker to take someone to the ground to try and best them..but try doing it on glass...on urine...with his friends around. the same can be said for a striker. try kicking in slippery urine... how good is your movement in a crowded bar?...how long will you last with several of my friends around?... two sides, same coin.
tufrthanu Posted December 31, 2004 Posted December 31, 2004 Well it's not...because my sole strategy does not rely on rolling around on the worst surfaces known to man. And as to your vaunted mount I'm not impressed. You seem to have overrated the effect of sitting on someone. It's a school boys tactic that is not hard to escape when you act immediately and with power. As to striking sure I dont have to use my legs at all...or I can break your knee cap..not much of a gamble on kicking there. Also there is the fact that you will have to get on top of me...which I can gaurantee you is no certain thing. Long Live the Fighters!
STR33T GUY Posted December 31, 2004 Posted December 31, 2004 I agree with SevenStar I disagree with tufrthanu A minute of experience on the street is worth a year of training in the dojo.If you can’t sprawl and brawl, you can’t street fight.
pineapple Posted January 2, 2005 Posted January 2, 2005 My experiences with the "mount" has been It is easy to prevent and escape the mount of an inexperienced person however, I found it near impossible to do with my "seasoned" BJJ friends with many years under their belts I guess it comes back to "it all depends on the individual". What works works
tufrthanu Posted January 2, 2005 Posted January 2, 2005 You are right of course pineapple. Some people can make even a low percentage move work and some can't make the easiest work at all. Long Live the Fighters!
SevenStar Posted January 3, 2005 Posted January 3, 2005 Well it's not...because my sole strategy does not rely on rolling around on the worst surfaces known to man. nor does ours. However, you can slip and fall while standing on those same surfaces, or be forced down. And as to your vaunted mount I'm not impressed. luckily, that wasn't my intent. Otherwise, I may be disappointed... You seem to have overrated the effect of sitting on someone. It's a school boys tactic that is not hard to escape when you act immediately and with power. therein lies your problem. you are thinking in terms or merely someone sitting on you. NOT someone sitting on you with proper technique. Heck, for that matter, any punch is a schoolboy tactic and is easily dealt with. As to striking sure I dont have to use my legs at all...or I can break your knee cap..not much of a gamble on kicking there. Also there is the fact that you will have to get on top of me...which I can gaurantee you is no certain thing. you actually hitting me is no guarantee either... However, what if scenarios are stupid, so we may as well not even go that route.
STR33T GUY Posted January 3, 2005 Posted January 3, 2005 As to striking sure I dont have to use my legs at all... Sounds like an arm puncher to me. A minute of experience on the street is worth a year of training in the dojo.If you can’t sprawl and brawl, you can’t street fight.
tufrthanu Posted January 3, 2005 Posted January 3, 2005 Sounds like an arm puncher to me. Uh...ok...? As to what sevenstar said...the whole point of the thread was a scenario. If you want to dismiss talking about specific scenarios the entire thread is moot. Long Live the Fighters!
