pittbullJudoka Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 I'm goning to deal out some advice after watching that video. First and most importantly keep your hands up especialy when kicking you dropping your hands to you waist and lower. You need to set up some combonations as well just letting your hands go. With as many kicks as you threw you never set down with a hand combo to kept you oppenant off balance. When you closed to grappling range was a decent job. But when you grab that gullitine lock it and pullhim into you guard to help secure the sub. Also nice job on the head control to take him on down just spin to his back even if the opion of getting your hooks aren't imediatley there. He's dropping his right hand when he throws his leg kick. Step through his leg kick and hit hit with a straight left. You side control need some tightening up. You leaving him too big of a space to move around and reestablish his guard. Knees to the body from side control. Light elbow to head also elbow the body. When going for your mount don't try throwing you leg over top as you tried. One he can block your attemp as he did. But it also possible to sweep when the mount is attempted like that because you weight is high and you body is off balance. Put you knee in his stomache and slide across thris keeps you weight low and his hip pinned to the floor. When you to his back and he grabs arm for that dump sweep get directly behind him to block. When he gets top postion start a mad scramble to get to your guard you laid there until he started raining knees down. You brab him the mount with little to no resistance.Once you get mount you number one priority should be bucking him out of posittion but if that's a no go lean up burying you face into his chest and lock you arms around his body but ideally you want to get locked around the back of his neck to control his posture to prevent the ground and pound. Good job on the escape from side control. When you have the mount rember to go for the body shots too. Change levels with you shots just as you would in your stand up. Good job on the rear naked choke.Next time he tries bridging like he did lock on a body triangle. All in all you did allright. Some of the thing I mentioned will come in time and training. I have to commend you on being willing to put your video up and subject yourself to the screwtiney of the masses.
Rainbow_Warrior Posted February 17, 2008 Author Posted February 17, 2008 Tnx pibull.1) You are right ,My hands were too low.. I know it . I know I must to keep them high , but I tend to do that when Im tired , and I was focused to keep him out of range ( I wasnt sure to go to the ground . I won this match , but beleive me , he is far more technical than me ).2)Thanks . I will improve my side control3) about the guillotine , I didnt want to pull guard...I have tried 1000 times to guillotine this guy and he can tolerate it for a looong time....I like to get different opinions of people who dont know me and are not biased. ´´ The evil may win a round , but not the fight ´´
pittbullJudoka Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 On your gullitine if he can withstand the choke put some sideways torque toward the center of his neck. This motion will take it from a choke to a neck crank. This how I usally catch people who can with stand the choke.
Rainbow_Warrior Posted February 18, 2008 Author Posted February 18, 2008 Tnx for the tip..I knew about the guillotine crank , but never implemented it.... Sounds goodI dont know why...sometimes I know techniques,,and can only use them looong time after.. I must to be more conscius about them.... ´´ The evil may win a round , but not the fight ´´
pittbullJudoka Posted February 19, 2008 Posted February 19, 2008 I dont know why...sometimes I know techniques,,and can only use them looong time after.. I must to be more conscius about them....This is something that will come with ring time. You'll get to were you miss an opening and see it as it's closing and think to youself. "Why didn't I do this or that." You'll be able to keep you mind from racing and spot more stuff the more you fight. All in due time.
ShoriKid Posted February 19, 2008 Posted February 19, 2008 Takes a lot of guts to put up a video, especially of the second round when your wind is strating to go. Thumbs up for that.Just to address two things you mentioned wanting to work on, and things I could see working for you. Your hands drop when your tired, and you wanted to keep your distance. Hands dropping when tired, go either knuckles to cheeks, or knuckles to temples. Which will depend on what the other guy is throwing and how much you want to cover up. Knuckles to cheeks, you can duck your head at on coming shots(only a bit, don't take your eyes off of him) and have your nose/jaw fairly well covered as you roll your shoulders in. From here you can still work your hands more. This works best for liniar attacks, jabs and straight shots.Knuckles to temples lets you really burry your head in your arms in a defensive shield. If a log of high kicks or hooks are coming in, you can make a slight adjustment to cover up well. Trouble is, it cuts down on your ability to rapidly fire a punch.The knuckles to "x" is just a reference point. When your tired, it's tough to keep a good stance with your hands in the right spots. So, knuckles to cheeks is must tucking the gloves in close to your face, about cheek bone level. You'll be looking right over your fingers then. You don't have to literally be touching your cheeks though. It's just one of those simple positions that seem easier to remember when you tired. Plus, the tightly craddled position takes a little less energy than the more extended way to carry the hands. Temple level the hands are higher, more to the sides of your head, with your chin tucked tight. So, your tired and want your distance, remember to do a couple of things. Move: Move in anything other than a straight line back. Backpeddle and your going to get caught. One step back, one step to the side. Cirle out of his jab. When he moves forward, move in yourself, at a 45 degree out of his power, ie away from his power hand. Jab/lead leg front kick: Neither of these are fight stoppers of themselves, but they are quick, low energy techniques. I was always told by a kick boxer I trained with that when your tired, remember to jab. Keep putting it out there in his face. He shouldn't get a free ride all the way in for the take down. That jab may keep him thinking and thinking means he's reacting instead of act. Not to mention thinking gives you time for something more vital. Oxygen! The front kick should go in right at either belt level and slightly off center line, or the top of the thigh, near the crease with the body. Use it as they close in with you. It screws up their foot work and pushes them back without directly trying to resist their forward momentum. It's frustrating as heck to be hit with once someone times you out a bit. You just can't seem to get to them. Yes Pitbull, I'm looking at you for this one. Tell the man how to set it up.I'll be reading to see how he sets it up so I can get past it with less work. It always comes out when he's tired. Which, usually means I'm tired. Kisshu fushin, Oni te hotoke kokoro. A demon's hand, a saint's heart. -- Osensei Shoshin Nagamine
pittbullJudoka Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 Shori You know I can't reveal the secret of my front kick. But man does it come in handy when I'm getting blasted and can't get the timing on the hands.
