i'd like to bitch about people slamming on the RG

[Jonathan Wylie]

In my honest opinion rubber guard is ineffective for your average midget

In my opinion your trolling is ineffective for the above average intelligence on this forum... but I did laugh at this comment.

I couldn't disagree more. Rubber guard was one of the first things i learned and I found it to be very beneficial as a new guy with no previous grappling skills. I only consider "advanced techniques" the positions that you rarely get in and don't have much of a chance to practice

I agree with you Tom. I have seen many guys come on here who don't even go to a gym working their Rubber Guard at home and still killing with it. That is the true beauty of it. You don't have to be this or that in the sport to understand the RG and able to use it effectively.

This is a very good point. You need to take your time learn basics or their will be holes in your game and it will be eazy to pick on your RG and its their lose not yours if they don't want to open their mind and learn don't forget that.

Mr Carbone showed me the ways of RG aka the ways of the dark side.

I feel for Cora's situation and it's terrible that there is so much stigma around all of this, if something works, why not use it, so sad to see coaches so against it that it might be a detriment to their students in competition especially. I'm now at a gym that is fine with all of it, only sad part is it's much further away from me so I'm just not getting the training in that I used to, but it's worth it not to have to deal with close minded people.

On a side note it was great to see rubberguard being used by the women in the recent Ultimate Fighter season

What can I say? RG is my go-to game.

I think every one in here should make a highlight vid like this and flood Youtube with it. Maybe that will deter people from questioning its legitimacy....

Very impressive, great use of technique. I hope she keeps going as she grows up, she'll be a serious contender!
