In the Rader vs Hall video, I hate how Rader won on a two point take down when Hall had about 35-50 different leg lock attempts and Rader didn't have one single solid submission attempt that I could recognize, but that's the way the cookie crumbles.

Honestly I wasn't watching it with sound and I didn't know where the points came from until I reviewed it, shouldn't have been a takedown imo, Hall kinda stood up to try and get his back but failed and then just kinda sat back down. But that's the points game for you.

That was crazy

So was that a new entry? I've never seen anything like it.

There's something to be said about Rader's leg lock escaping ability! Beautiful!

[Jack LaBarge]

Of course Rader wouldn't fair well in a Blackbelt Submission only Tournament! His game is totally based on points. He's perfect for IBJJF tournaments.

I think Rader deserved to win. Ryan Hall absolutely refused to take part in the standup, which is a big part of Rader's game, but Rader was able to deal with Hall where he was best.

Although I've been training for years, when I watch a jiu jitsu tournament, I feel like a confused wife who has no idea what the rules are of the sport she's being forced to watch. I spend the whole time going, "who's winning?" "what's this guy trying to do?" "what just happened?". I totally don't understand why all the Ryan Hall leg locks didn't add up to a point somewhere along the way.

I don't compete and I find watching the average JJ tournament really boring, but I think submission only tournaments are definitely the way to go.
