You guys have made the misconseption that I don't train wrestling, or other styles of submission aside from BJJ. I own 3 Black Belts with stripes, and have studied in over 15 styles of Martial Arts. My 2nd student ever (still training 4 times a week with me) is an ex-wrestling coach for Texas State. He is also a Black Belt in Judo. And is a Black belt in Hapkido. I have trained with him for the last 5 & 1/2 years. His is 205-235lbs. He is a contractor & a goat farmer. Imagine if this animal got a hold of you! He would probably pull each person on this threads arms off after he brutally slammed you with a mean takedown. I also train with Daniel Moraes his wrestling is really good, he has been at my house since the Arnolds & will be here till the Pan-Ams. I also go to Brazil to train @ his facilities down there. He has had more private lessons with Darrell Gholar than anyone else in Brazil. Oh & he brought his little brother with that is an excellent wrestler that trains with Gholar as well. So don't think I don't wrestle. And since Master Relson Gracie has made this possible for me I would pretty much consider it as part of my Jiu-Jitsu training. I don't train BJJ as much as I train under Relson, their is a big differance between sport Jiu-Jitsu & Relson's teachings. They are not just limited to sport by any means. Relson doesn't suggest pulling guard in street fights FYI. Just because I have won matches from my guard does not mean I don't win other matches from other positions. Some times it's just SO easy to win in a couple seconds this way & I have taken the easiest path to the submission. You obviously don't know much about Relson or his particular style of grappling because you are claiming that cacc has more submissions than Relson Gracie Jiu-Jitsu. Once you guys implied this I know offically you are out of your mind. Relson is one of the meanest grapplers in the world. He knows more dirty submissions than I could have ever imagined, (all he does is bend people up and make them tap). How much time have you guys taken to learn about his style? Do you think he has not been exposed to just about every way to twist some one up? Remember all he has done his whole life is fight & teach. The human body can only be twisted in so many ways.
I asked you guy before "Do you have any video footage of catch wrestlers beating up good Jiu-Jitsu Instructors? Does this happen on a regular basis?" - why can't you guys answer this? Can you tell me of any good catch wrestlers that have beaten some top competitors? Do you actually think a catch wrestler could walk into Relson's or Carlson's (both are located in the USA) with out getting their asses handed to them? Can you come up with a catch wrestler that is willing to beat up a Jiu-Jitsu light weight? I am game & travel around the world to compete. Where do you guys train? What type of competition records do you have? What level do you compete at? Do you hold any rank in any styles? Can you produce the name of any large grappling event where a cacc rep. has won? I have won many tournaments by applying the teachings passed down form my Instructor. Can you guys make this claim? jubaji- you might not like it but you need to come to terms with the fact the MATT FUREY is your poster boy. 90% of grapplers think of Matt Furey when they think of Catch, so you really have no room to talk about looking cool. FYI I don't require mats to fight, I have been in many fights & even not so friendly grappling matches on concrete so don't talk to me about needing rings or mats. I am prior Marine Corps (and trained & competed while in) Marines are dense & like to question if some sissy wrestling would actually work on them. Many matches happened over concrete or metal. I think you need to go back & read the first post on this thread, you talk about cacc being more effective in the ring. If catch is so effective can you guys prove it?
