I used this one first too!!
They’re definitely good for a refresher. Sometimes you don't quite click with everything during a live session at the gym, so I like to grab a buddy—we both train—and just hammer out those specific moves extra. Plus, there's always stuff you just don't have the time to test out mid-class!!
THX 👍 👍

I have no idea how fast your internet connection is—probably some outdated dial-up nonsense, right?—but there are all these MMA hubs on DC++ where people stash everything. You can just grab entire instructional series in one go. Honestly, if you actually want to learn something instead of just staring at YouTube clips, that’s way more useful.

Here is a little nugget for you all.

Check out this roster from the ADCC submission wrestling tournament. Now, let me tell you, the UFC-style grappling world recognizes ADCC as the absolute pinnacle—it’s the most prestigious submission wrestling event on the planet. You get everyone in there: wrestlers, judoka, BJJ specialists, Jiu-Jitsu practitioners, you name it. And honestly? I don't even need to state the obvious, but the BJJ guys absolutely steamroll the competition. It works on a qualifier system based on continents—I think they have the US, South America, Asia, and European qualifiers, among others. It is frankly quite eye-opening how weak the representation from Europe is in this lineup.
In the heavyweight division, we can spot two names that feel somewhat "familiar" to us. Fabricio Werdum (who was a training partner for Mirkov in BJJ) is right there in the top 15 best in the world—which, quite frankly, speaks volumes about his technical expertise and why people pay good money for his seminars! :-))) Then there is Petković, coming out of the North America, who won the European qualifiers. He's a solid guy for our neck of the woods, but let's be real... he doesn't stand a prayer at this elite level.

Petković missed out at the qualifiers, but he snagged an invite anyway, so he's stepping up to fight!!

Where on earth did I get such wrong information? From whom did he lose, and how in the world does he even get an invitation?

Dunno. Some guy from his school or whatever showed up to train near us one day—probably just passing through—and mentioned he got drafted!! No clue on the specifics though.
