Easier still, than beating a one legged man in an ass kicking contest, is beating a one legged man in a ball kicking contest.

Ok, here's another one. Originally from Extreme Fighting 1: after trying to jump from behind into a guillotine, Mario Sperry has just been kneed in the face by Igor Zinoniev, opening up a massive, fight-ending cut:

As a player that, in training, plays a lot of guard(and am pretty sucessful), but in tournaments plays a lot of top, I understand his thinking. Sweeps are harder to get the better your opponent, and you can only score 1 way from bottom, or submit.…

I do like the way he thinks. BJJ needs people like that, to really pick things apart and analyse them and maybe put them back together stronger. He can say this, though, but he has built a career on triangling the shit out of people. He has done…

No more sweeping?

What do you guys think of this article?http://lockflow.com/article_view.php?id=4993“The way Marcelo Garcia plays guard, is, in my opinion, how it should be done,” Hall said. “Your whole job is to pull them off of you and stand up into a single leg. I’m finding more and more that the traditional sweeps don’t really work at the high level, at least not in the way that you normally think of them: you cut me over, and I fall like kaboom…See More

Jim replied to Zackary Adams's discussion 'Strikeforce Opinions'

- That thing on Bloody Elbow about Fedor always having been a bit vulnerable pretty much spells out how I feel about that. - I was disappointed that Shields wasn't able to finish, but Miller looked worse (to me) for not having takedown defense…

Strikeforce Opinions

Just wondering how everyone felt after Saturday's scraps.My feelings: Fedor looked like Fedor(I think his other showings in America spoiled us, i.e. the 'Fedor's been exposed' comments many places), Shields looked worse in winning than Miller looked great in losing, Mousasi looked skinny for 205.See More

Dieting to get to you optimal weight class(I walk around at 165lbs, but fight usually @ 160 or so) is a safer method, and you'll have no need for a new liver when you're 40!
