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.

Today we will discuss the neck & arm principle for finishing submissions in Jiu-Jitsu.

I’ll cover subs from side control, from the guard,

All these situations come off of dilemmas. Meaning, I’ll use one submission threat to open up the other.

You can use this great principle with most submissions in Jiu-Jitsu or MMA.

Any position that involves submissions from the arm & the neck can utilize this principle.
