On part 6.3.2 it has a graph that says which rules are legal/illegal. I'm sure I'm completely reading it wrong but it mentions "x guard" under one of the sections about knee reaping. Am I reading it right that x guard is now illegal?
Single leg x-guard
Look at those rules. What a prestigious tournament! Rose Gracie has the right idea!
Scanning the prohibited moves and techniques I wouldn't be surprised Brent. It looks like they outlawed just about everything short of looking at your opponent funny.
Almost makes ibjjf tournaments pointless to go to.
Except for the prestige of the World Championships or Pan Ams
Rose Gracie is going to have a World Championship in June or July. Win by Submission!!!! Now That is Jiu Jitsu!!!! As far as the "prestige" of the ibjjf. Well its just the current Brazilian JJ culture Kool aid....Rose Gracie is trying to change that culture. Winning by advantages or by takedown then stalling the rest of the match....is not what Jiu Jitsu means to me.
Rose Gracie's Championships will make Jiu Jitsu better!!!
Damn I hope soQuote:
