Is Greco-Roman wrestling the best takedown art?
Posted by Joe in Belt Levels on December 8th, 2008
Randy Couture a Greco-Roman wrestler manhandled Gonzaga who was a black belt in BJJ. Couture slammed Gonzaga at least 3 or 4 times. One slam was so hard he broke Gonzaga’s nose. Gonzaga was pinned against the cage 85% of the fight.
Don’t give me that crap that Couture trains in BJJ, because he does NOT! Coutures grappling moves in that fight were pure Greco-Roman techniques.
So is Greco-Roman wrestling the best takedown martial art?

Are they really pretty much the same except Judo focuses more on throws and BJJ focuses a little bit more on submissions.

Can I get a black belt in jiu-jitsu?
Posted by Joe in Belt Levels on July 14th, 2008
I’m a sophmore, and I’ve been home training in bjj and jj for 2 years. I’ve used the net and home dvds to learn the art. I was wondering if it was possible to go to a dojo or any jiu-jitsu instructional place, and take the black belt exam to certify my qualifications for the belt?
The list of dvds I’ve watched to train myself include the following:
-Daniel Moraes series
-Eddie brave Rubber Guard
-Frank Shamrock Series
-Free style Revolution
-Gracie jiujitsu Basic, intermediate, and advance
-Judo for Bjj
Marcelo Garcia series
-Mario Sperry Vale Tudo (all 3)
-Schembri Omoplata series
Note: Aside from jiu jitsu, I’ve also trained in Kungfu Bagua, I can do full side splits, and almost front splits. And I’m 14.
Weight- 140
