Pulling guard/The 3rd option

[Gray]

I think in a grappling competition pulling guard off a shot/throw gives your opponent two points, so it kind of negates the advantage of pulling guard

As long as you initiate the contact then you can pull guard without losing points.

Not if you believe in your guard, and sub or sweep his ass.

And sweep within three seconds, yeah. Still more risky than just pulling guard.

When they defend your takedown/throw it counts as forward movement. So two points

Points? I thought this thread was about pulling guard for MMA.

lol, sorry bro. I don't fight, so I was just giving sport perspective on the concept.

Yeah, might not be the best thing to do in grapple comps, unless its submission only or no points for first half of the match or something. I guess unless your wayyyy down on points and need to make something happen

Would post Stefan Struve's guard pull if it was aloud on youtube... Anyway here is some shameless self promotion
