    @BJJ_Scout – I was watching GSP Vs matt serra 2 – GSP did exactly this when serra turtles – hand control, ride the leg & bring him back on the ground.

    Is turtle safe when you include soccer kicks and knees to head and body though?

    Folkstyle wrestling is so pretty even at the youth level. Ben makes it look like speed painting or some form of sculpting.

  13. Ben Livingston says

    If everybody fought like Askren most people would stop watching mma.

    Israel Adesanya shouted this video out on Joe Rogan podcast. He said he learnt from this.

  15. Harris Richardson says

    July 13, 2018 at 11:43 pm

    Any thoughts on using the sleeve grip with the gi?

  16. W33BN3SS says

    9:23 that man is fucken determined to hold his wrist in place, and Ben is even more determined to get it xD

    best video series on mma ever

  18. alexsayhi says

    They both have the ability to take each other down and keep him there and win rounds that way. The question is who tries first and how much would the stand up play a factor. I think Khabib's got the better takedowns. Askren's entries are very sloppy and susceptible to counters. But in that particular matchup i don't think it matters. Once on top of you they are both experts at suffocating you. Both undefeated. Wow.

  19. alexsayhi says

    October 25, 2018 at 6:44 am

    Joe Rogan's got so much power now, he invites someone, the guy tells his story and boom everyone wants him in the UFC. Best move Askren ever did to get on the show. By the way we really see how much MMA fans have evolved now, to be excited to see two wrestlers against each other. Love it.

    @9:10 would have been nice if he got that hammerlock… but dude grabbed his leg

  21. A ASPLENDIDSAVAGE says

    October 26, 2018 at 9:43 pm

    Go Ben ?

  22. Arjun says

    October 30, 2018 at 1:33 pm

    Khabib has a few wrestling skills but nobody is able to stop him.

  23. josefrancisco says

    October 30, 2018 at 7:23 pm

    Great video.

  24. rupertx3 says

    November 3, 2018 at 8:18 pm

    This is the best analysis I have ever seen!

  25. ime akpan says

    December 11, 2018 at 5:35 pm

    Do a study of Eberth Santos' snap down throw.

    This shit is life changing

  27. Zayd Shakur says

    February 18, 2019 at 5:19 pm

    Really like the mix you used for this vid. Music was dope…Oh, fav MMA wrestlers: Khabib, Ben, & Yoel.

  28. Jonathan Hensley says

    Everyone know about controlling the wrist from the back. That's not some new or innovative technique. Watch the weak side for life approach by Rener Gracie. It's called the triple threat in youtube
