MMA GOAT says Gi BJJ is Harder than Fighting

I recently watched a podcast with Demetrious Johnson, DJ, Might Mouse, or whatever other name you’d like to use…

He was a former UFC Champion, One FC Champion, and one of the best grapplers in MMA.

Recently on a podcast, he said Jiu-Jitsu was harder than MMA. The clip is in this video.

He specifies how much harder Gi is than No-Gi too.

In the combat sports world people crap on Jiu-Jitsu. In the Jiu-Jitsu world, people crap on the Gi. It’s interesting to hear that an MMA legend has the opinion that DJ does.

I agree with him. Sort of…

I’ll go into this idea of “harder” a little deeper into the video and explain why, in my experience, both are difficult in their own way; specifically, how MMA is, in my experience, more physically demanding, and BJJ is a bit more complex in the sense of depths of technique.

Hopefully you found this video interesting, just as much I found the topic at hand.

Thanks for watching.
