I see most of see talkin bout BJJ, which is a great art, (only place in my area dat offers it i'm afraid is VERY likely a mcdojo)
But does anyone here do Sambo? If so when you train do u actually go by the olympic rules? My gym goes for mostly open grappling rules, anytin goes from windpipe chokes to heel hooks, although it seems alot of tounrey's dun allow them, y is dat? _________________ "Roses are red,

Nah, I do BJJ.
Tapout does Sambo, haven't seen him post in a while though. _________________ It takes sacrifice to be the best.

Yup, did it for a year with a friend from Khazakstan. I like it more than most people I think. it has improved my arm and leg subs like crazy. In their tourneys, choking is not allowed. Imagine how much more open your grappling would be if you didnt have to protect your neck. The stuff we see in the US is often mcdojo sombo. The real art has great throws, crazy grips for throws, excellent takedowns and of course leg and arm combos out the yin yang _________________ If my survival means your total destruction, then so be it. |

Dude, we always do chokes, its not allowed in stupid sport sambo rules, but we train full submission fighting, with all locks allowed. It would suck not to be alowed to choke we juss not allowed to use small joint locks, but we can use pressure points. Lol, i would prolly lose alot more if we couldn't choke, i manage the guillotine and side choke often, but i'm also pretty decent at leg locks. We train pretty much like BJJ, 'cept we dun rely too much on our gi's, and we prolly work takedowns/throws a lil, more...believe me a good sambo throw onto cement and its over, its bad enough on mats,lol. Also, Sambo's known for its leg locks, i like leg locks, lol. My coach is 3 time Russian champ. ANyone else here do Sambo or faced any Sambo guys in competition? _________________ "Roses are red,

I do Sambo too, we do lotsa choking, who cares about Olymipic rules. I dun live in america, i like in Canada. My coach is a multi-time russian champ(yes he is in fact russian), one of the assistant coaches is a middleweight submission fighting champ and one of the guys i train wit is a lightweight pankration champion _________________ "razor elbows, killer knees, iron fists and monster kicks"
