now as we all know combat sambo became very effective in the MMA world once khabib stepped into the cage in 2012 , nobody knew nothing about dagestan and its culture and fighting style,but once we saw the the ground and pound and grappling of khabib then all of us changed our minds and we realized that basically American grappling sucks, now American grappling not sucks its just not useful enough now days to fight bigger and stronger opponents like from dagestan, today i will talk about and explain why combat sambo still not in America like jiu-jitsu are, and if the this fighting style are so good then why not to start teaching it ASAP in all our gyms.
let me start first with jiu-jitsu, do you remember when the graicie family first Arrived to America and just proved Everyone that jiu-jitsu work on bigger opponents without losing any Energy, royce graicie wasnt even using any striking techniques and just went straight to the Takedown and just finished everyone thats it, now let me ask you this, how many of the American people started to learn and using this fighting style after that? 99% did but for nowdays how many left only 1%, the reason why is , it just spread around all the US and it became very messy, everyone started teaching it in diffrent style and in his own way, now days you have luta-livre, sports jiu-jitsu style,or people who focusing on teaching leg lock techniques too much , or regular grappling style or MMA grappling style, now lets say you as a beginner who is intrested to learn martial arts and you joined a nice Dojo where they teaching jiu jitsu, and you dont really know that its not effective in real life or against bigger opponents, you starting rolling, learning some submissions and takedowns and times pass by you getting your blue belt and then your purple belt wow you an expert!!!
and then nice young man 18 years old coming from brazil or from russia to train in your gym who were training only for one year and in the end of the training session asked you to roll with him, and less than a minute you got a nice triangle choke intresting no? you are not a purple anymore in less than a minute and you thinking to yourself like ,what just happened? oh maybe he is from brazil thats why he is so good make sense , all of a sudden all your 4-5 years of achieving a purple belt didnt mean anything at all? well thats what i was talking about beacause i had same thing going on and i was thinking its beacause im suck , no my technique is suck because ive been taught wrong period.
but thank God that i found coach rene dreifuss in Radical MMA and ive been proved so bad that my technique is suck that it really kinda hurt me but there is no excuses it took me time to change my bad technique to a good one, and i realized what really sport jiu-jitsu is, and you dont need any combat sambo or flying to brazil or whatever, there is always a hidden within somewhere among all others ,you just have to go and find it.
not just that i changed my jiu jitsu style but i changed it to a combat jiu-jitsu style which MMA techniques are involved too and again ive been proved by my coach that it is effective and not just showing the technique and go practice it and you a blue belt now,
rickson graice says that the hardest belt to attain in jiu-jitsu is the blue belt, beacause you already have to know how to mount,choke,armlocks and escapes from squeezes, you need to be able to survive with bigger and overweight opponents once you getting squeezed on side control and you gotta know how to last longer in training and breath properly when doing a tecnique, sounds easy right but its not.
That's why jiu-jitsu nowadays lucking the right technique that helio graicie taught to the Americans, even though they didn't really teached everything but even though it just not a real jiu-jitsu anymore, can you imagine how Annoying is it to realize that you made mistakes for whole this time that you put so much time in training but it's was a waste of time ,but its not your fault though and wasn't neither mine ,most of the people just quit and that's it but quitting not gonna help you , I recommend you to really find a gym and a coach that proves you wrong and dosent care about your money that you paying him but only about your growth.
now what is the difference between dagestany combat sambo and the combat jiu-jitsu helio graicie on the ground fighting? There is no difference and I'll prove and explain to you why.
now look here you see khabib explains something important about grappling that people didnt know about, the leg control if you got a strong legs then you have a good control and you can dominate, now let me ask you, whatever you saw in this video right now, it dosent has to do with jiu-jitsu? of course it is its all jiu-jitsu but he is teaching you the right way of doing it, thats why combat sambo its like jiu-jitsu but with proper tech ique on the ground now days , and here you see the way of get to the mount and stay in control , what is the point to get into mount and then lose it? so its all about the technique.
there is a 3 stuff you have to know about each movement you doing and if you dont know it then you dont know the move
1.kazushi { japanese term for breaking your opponen'ts balance
2.leverage
3.control
those 3 stuff you must know and find in each movement you doing and learning and if you dont know it then isnt gonna work.
now here im gonna show you another example:
here you see for example the knee slide and the crucifix they both jiu-jitsu techniques ,dont call it khabib combat sambo techniques beacause they are not, the reason khabib grappling is successful beacause he is using the techniques that are useful in a fight and he knows the move so well that all his team practicing it for months and not just for one day yes and one day not, so thats why im saying that jiu-jitsu is lost technique today, for the technique to be good you have to practice it everyday until you know it so good that you able to use it against everyone in a fight. like the knee slide its an amazing guard pass but you have to do it the right way in a fight, and only few coaches out there can show how to do it but not everyone.
now im gonna show you how a jiu-jitsu guy submitted a combat sambo world champion in an mma fight.
here you see how fabricio werdum submitted fedor in the first round just with the triangle choke, a jiu-jitsu guy defeated the sambp world champion amazing, and how that happened? with the correct jiu-jitsu technique, in the video you see just a triangle choke and thats it but if you an expert you can see more than that, now if youve been there in the ground and getting punches do you think that you were be able to get this triangle choke? of course not right so thats what im saying about graicie jiu-jitsu style thats is the best and always will be and nobody ever will be able to defeat this style.
now let me start speak about combat sambo itself and why isnt really in America , why not to bring dagestany fighters from khabib's team and create a nice gym around NYC and california, they will just more money and everyone will be a great fighter, all America knows anyway that combat sambo is the best so why not?
the reason is that the Americans still stick with their style and will Always believe that their jiu-jitsu in MMA works and it is works , you have bunch of American people competing everyweek and winning, the Americans not willing to sacarfice to learn something diffrent which isnt their style, thats why sometimes many Americans are going to brazil or japan to train there and coming back with completly diffeent knowlege about martial -arts, now have you ever saw an American going to russia or dagestan to train for a fight or learn martial arts? it never happened , maybe few people people that we dont know about., now look there is grapplers in America who can submiit khabibs team for sure in grappling 100% but in MMA im not Quiet sure so , as i said America is a huge country and every gym and coach are diffrent and teaching diffrent ,
but the Americans will not be able to go through the training system and the mentality of fighting like the russian people or dagestany people has, the dedication the commitment, for them to come to the gym 3-4 times a week isnt enough, you have to live it , the Americans dont have the heart of fighting and martial arts knowledge like the dagestany people and it will never have it. it just all about the mindset .
you see many dagestany fighters that never staying in dagestan to become a champion , they just taking and using their skills to the US or diffrent country ,like the fighter mohamad mokaev he is training in liverpool, all he is doing he is keeping on developing his skills but the dagestany heart fighting style stays inside him and it never will be revealed, of course he is still keep learning good techniques and evetything but his wrestling style nobody will defeat, the Americans dont want to submit themselves to learn something diffrent something complete diffrent from their style, there is Always Americans wrestlers who think that their wrestling is better than dagestan style, we all know that its never be true, you saw hoe khamzat chimaev just choked kevin holland so fast , its was like a kindagarden because he isnt a wrestler anymore.
all im trying to say is that you cant bring the dagestany spirit of fighting and mindset into this country which we think that our own unique style that we got from the graicie family or learned from our coaches is enough to become a champion , so its not just about khabibs skill of fighting , he has the spirit and the mentality, the Americans will not be able to go for it , and the dagestany people will not agree to teach their unique style to us without any purpose.
