Guard passing (guard passes) should be approached, not as a defense to your opponents guard but as an attack on your opponents guard. If you're opponent is always defending then they don't have much of a chance to start an offense on you and you will have less to worry about, which will give you a greater opportunity to beat your opponent.
Karo Pariisyan and Rhonda Rousey were/are pretty damn good at incorporating it in fights....Originally Posted by theheavens
Yea, I respect Gracie's for bringing the art to light, but there are plenty of other names overlooked all the time.
The Machado's
The Noguieras along with Murilo Bustamante who incorporated the rubber guard which the gracie's do not believe in using.
Jake Mackenzie, Leo Santos, Marcelo Garcia, alexandre Ribiero, etc
Regarding judo, Jon Jones uses judo throws VERY well in the UFC! Judo definitely has a plce in MMA if used properly. One cannot expect to do well in MMA with only judo expertise though.
same that one cannot expect to do well in mma without judo or BJJ
epic fight
it shows how effective can be bjj
