Jaco but I would be interested to try those diamond cup
I have the diamond, jaco, and shock doctor compression shorts type as well. The diamond is the best. The jaco is almost as good so I would probably get a jaco. You can get 2 jacos for the price of one diamond.
Jaco is the best I've found so far. Shock doctor doesn't even come close. Haven't had a chance to try diamond.
I wear the Shock doctor cup, same one I used during hockey last year (it was still new). Not bad, haven't gone without it since (my first few months I rolled without a cup don't know why).
Nutty buddy is really good , but I didnt like grappling in it. If you are laying on your stomach or someone puts weight down on your junk the edges kinda cut into you a little, cuz its thin around the edges. Would be nice if there was a little padding of some kind on the edge.Quote:

favorite - thai cup in regular jock strap covered with compression short to keep everything in place
I have the Diamond MMA version, and it's by far the best cup I've ever had. The thing is very comfortable to train in, and it doesn't move at all. I can't believe I waited so long to buy one, as it's probably the best piece of gear I've ever purchased. It's definitely expensive, but to me, it's worth the money.
I WOULD NOT recommend the nutty buddy for grappling! Big waste of money if your training is mostly grappling
Cups? Pussies.

I use a protex compression short cup, it's done well with kyokushin, mma and rolling. Way better then the shock doctor I used to use.
Never wear one.
We are advised not to wear them when we train grappling as they are illegal in comps and can give you bad habits. (armbar across your cup).
Is that only in GI comps? I've only competed in nogi comps and haven't heard of that yet.Quote:
