🥋 Car Thief Gets Checked

What up Flowrollers, it’s a great day to promote your mini Chihuahua as the first canine black belt.

Last week’s poll showed you all were staunchly against the IBJJF banning lapel guard in competition:

I actually think it’s a pretty nuanced topic. Initially I thought “hell no,” but I saw some high level competitors on Meregali’s side… or at least proposing penalties for an incredibly stally position like lapel 50/50.

At the end of the day, I think this debate is a broader symptom of gi Jiu Jitsu being a less-than-super-exciting spectator sport most of the time. There’s a reason that your average FloGrappling no-gi undercard gets more viewers than IBJJF Gi Worlds (according to Craig Jones).

Most of y’alls comments were some variation of “don’t like lapel guard? go train no-gi:”

Alright let’s get to it, slap-and-bump 👊🏻

THE MAIN EVENT 🚨

6’5” phenom Haisam Rida woke up from a nap to an intruder trying to break into his car… and let’s just say, if you’re a car thief the last thing you want to see is this guy staring you down:

Haisam subdued the thief, and B-Team teased a little bit of the footage on their YouTube:

I sure hope we get to see the whole thing! That was a beautiful foot sweep 🧹 

How confident are you in your Jiu Jitsu holding up in the streets?
