Bas Rutten is one of my favorite fighters, he has a lot of balls in the ring, his open handed strikes to the head are brutal and legendary.

It’s called Jiu Jitsu and if you can learn it by watching a video the I’m John Holmes.

it’s not all Jiu Jitsu (he warns you to try and stay off the ground as much as possible and make it a stand up fight), and the video is not meant replace proper training, its mearly a suppliment to aid training. If you were to see the whole video (which I have) you’d be able to see that, as he says things like “when training with your sparring partner be sure to do x y z”

I think your theory is flawed, because I’m a “domestic guy” :wtcslap:

One of the unfortunate side effects of the UFC is that now everybody thinks Jiu Jitsu = Brazilian ,which is primarily grappling. Japanese Jiu Jitsu (such as the Budoshin and KoKushi-Ryu styles) utilizes strikes, kicks, chops, locks, throws, chokes and vital strikes against an opponent. As you state, it’s about staying _off_ the ground, when possible.

yeah, my roommate does Brazilian style Jiu Jitsu as well as mixed martial arts type fighting. I used to do a good bit of TaeKwonDo a while back, but right now my body is pretty toast.

Go take a class without watching any videos and trying to learn on your own, and see how long you last. There is no substitute for hands-on training, but a basic knowledge goes a long way.
