[Aaron Gustaveson]

A guy named Kendall Shields wrote an interesting article on the gogo,

Here are a couple highlights in case you dont want to read it,

Re: the gogo
"Somehow I didn’t realize until now that Kyuzo Mifune demonstrates (though does not name) this technique in his classic and essential The Canon of Judo (page 134, for those of you with the book). “Take extra care,” he cautions, “as it is easy to injure your opponent.”"

This is bullshit for a few different reasons.

For one, I guess Bjj-Eastern Europe is now in the business of headline journalism. This is the TMZ business model where you try and find some sort of beef or controversy and put it in the headline to generate web traffic.

Yeah it's a bit gross to see that in Jiu-jitsu.

Its too funny listening about people who are all concerned about what a move is called and who originated it, it's all jiu jitsu who cares about the specifics. You dont hear people complaining Peyton Manning renamed his audible as "omaha" or that a baseball teams has their own set of signals. Every sport has it's own terminology and each team/individual has their own meaning for them. Why is it such a big deal in jiu jitsu?

P.S. Nino should call out that Shawn Williams guy I think he stole some of his moves too

Now we have Felipe Costa Implying that Eddie is claiming he invented the lockdown. I know he doesn't mention Eddie's name but who else could he be implying?

I think there should be a fact checker for Eddie and the language should be written in Portuguese. So we could just copy & paste the site to their gossip, untrue B.S. posts and article's.

Eddie says in the first fucking 5 minutes of Mastering the rubberguard dvd that the lockdown is an old judo move that gene lebell showed him. Brazilians would make great reporters at fox news.

I just saw he edited it, how much did he change it from his original post?

The Felipe Costa post? He didn't edit his original statement. He just added everything after "edited." I don't think he was intending to be disrespectful or anything like that.

No, No, No Mr. BMAC. Felipe complete edited the whole post!!!

I agree, that I don't believe he intended to be disrespectful. BUT, I do believe he was definitely implying Eddie!!!

Of course I can't remember how it was worded exactly. Also he didn't write Eddie's name.

Very short version...It was like..... See, this is why these guys shouldn't say they invent things. here's the video proof.

[Brandon Mccaghren]

I'm pretty sure he didn't edit the thing. I saw the original also. I've been wrong before, though.

EDITED: I take that back. I've never been wrong.

Your right. You've never been wrong until now.
