Does eddie know this guy

Seems to be outta Covington Georgia. I bet we have folks around those parts jus sayin

He isn't "stealing" anything. You can't steal a body position. Master Eddie didn't invent 10pjj, he discovered and continues to perfect it. The more people out there practicing it, the more exposure it gets and the greater the jiu jitsu community improves and evolves as a whole.

If he should be reprimanded for anything, it should be for spreading sloppy tech, which really hurts the community. He could benefit from actually visiting a moon and attempting to learn proper tech before claiming some sort of proficiency in it, because his grasp of the material is frankly, shit. He needs to learn to give credit where credit is due as well.

He is teaching Eddie's system. You can plagerise/steal a system. Stealing, biting, not citing, giving no credit- semantics.

Agreed, it's all intellectual property. People have told me he bit a few of my vids as well.

I would twister flip him every time and if he did end up in the truck he would get armbared reaching for the calf crank with the near arm.

Bobby/can someone please help explain the twister flip counter? Is this when he goes for the twister/truck roll? Sry just trying to understand the gap.

I've heard of the armbar counter from the nearside arm on calf crank, he claims he hasn't had that happen to him yet in the tourneys he's done although I can't comment on the level of opponents he's faced (on his site I think it says he did fight MMA, and he has emailed with me before)

He would also get re-omo'd when he tries to slow your roll by grabbing one leg.

Which part when he goes for omplata and opponent rolls forward? Thanks guys.

From the info that was told to me, he has never competed, and his rank is a black belt in some made up jiu jitsu style, with no legit BJJ or Grappling(Judo/Sambo/Wrestling/Etc.), mind you this was a few years ago that someone told me all this.

Hey Zog. Black belt rank in jiu jitsu is legit, as long as it sounds like jiu jitsu. Ju-jitsu and ju-jutsu are legit and wouldn't require any tournament experience. Lol.

Tell me he didn't actually say, "I'm going to test his flexibility" in the second vid in this thread. So it's not enough to bite moves -You've got to actually bite the phrase used by the guy who made the original instructional video as well? Lame.

I understand nobody can copyright a move. And Eddie is the first one to admit he didn't really "invent" every technique he teaches. But if you do like the guy did in these videos and present material in exactly the same way that someone else presents it, then you're stealing. If this guy did a video of how to do Rubber Guard techniques when you don't have the flexibility, or how to do them wearing a Gi, or something like that, it might be OK. But to just make a video of how to do the Twister submission is just plain stupid when there's already a video teaching the submission and your "new" video isn't adding anything.
