What is your Jiu Jitsu animal?

[Arman Fathi]

I'm the Honey Badger. Relentless and fearless in combat, the Honey Badger will even attack much larger animals in order to protect itself.

Ah yes, the Honey Badger. A scrappy guard passer, voracious scrambler, and absolute fearless savage. Pound for pound one of the most dangerous animals out there. A native of Africa, Southwest Asia, and south of India, they thrive on land as well as under ground, having the ability to burrow for minutes on end, reportedly even fending off animals much bigger, including Lions. Very thick-skinned with considerable HP. One of few animals intelligent enough to use tools. They are tireless in combat and will fight to the death. A brilliant animal. I vaguely recall that this may have been Garry Tonon as well.

"considerable HP" lmao! xD this thread is best thread!

Interesting. One of the most carnivorous animals of the Hyaenidae family. More predator than scavenger. More intelligent than the average hyena due to greater frontal cortex activity. One of the more complex animals in terms of social structure. It will be noteworthy to see your development into a higher belt Spotted Hyena.

The belt is misleading. I have no belt. I put white because none was not an option. I've been grappling since 04 ish. I've always cross trained with my 10th Planet fam but have been a life long JKD grappler. No clue where I stand lol.

I should have known. Knowing your animal and nurturing it to a conscious degree takes years of mat time.

Lol I guess. I accredit it to lots of "tap time" but i like mat time better.

The panda is a notorious inverter. I have talked to more than one person who has literally learned how to invert by watching the panda. One of the more common animals you might find, however that does not make it any less deadly when fully matured.

I elect to identify my style to that of a Praying Mantis, I'm kinda lanky with long limbs but have great flexibility & decent strength coupled with it. I tend to stalk my enemies until exhaustion, then I wait for my opportunity & STRIKE!!!

Or something like that....Maybe a stoned Praying Mantis would be a better description.

[TaylorWolf]

Praying Mantis is a great answer. They gotta have one of the best p4p clinches in the animal kingdom. When they snatch something up its going NOWHERE.

As for my animal... shit you already know!

[Brian Debes]

Barn Cat.
A really old, scraggly, slow one. Probably missing an ear and most of its tail too. Still here though. Still here.
