From guard they teach overhook/neck hold down. They even say the gracie combatives can be done in a gi or no gi. When you send in your video to test for blue, you can do either gi or no gi, they do not require a gi. You can see examples on thier website Gracie university.Quote:

I watched the whole thing, and because of the “distance” thing, it almost seemed if they were bashing the Gi without knowing it. Eddie has talked about before “You better have a clinch game… because when punches start coming, you’ll be clinching”.
In a side note, I’ll take the rubber guard over “the punch block series” any day.
This is how you fight in the street!

as most of us know there is quite a difference between having to grapple someone experienced vs an average guy on the street, it's much easier to pull the techniques off on those who are unaware of the movements and there meaning, in a street fight the ideal should be to pick the tech that would end the fight the quickest most time things off the clinch as to not be hit generally work well most of us that do mma get close to that with ground an pound drills the pretty high tech stuff is more fluid against someone experienced in the sense of they react accordingly to our movements and we counter ece ece,in a street fight the odds of defending yourself against someone taught and drilled in martial arts is slim,the average person will generally put themselves in the position to open opportunity for a trained practitioner to place him in a submission or a position of control,at the end of the day it's on the practitioner to drill consistant and hard to be able to enforce his techniques in a street defense situation
