BJJ101 Roger Gracie


Now this is a fight Roger had overnight in Japan against Yuki Kondo. Obviously Kondo doesnt put up much of a fight here and the Japanese are working hard to build Roger as a future star of MMA (i.e the fight is worked IMO) but it is an excellent display of a BJJ fight strategy from the takedown through to the finish. Roger has always been renown for doing the basics well, nothing fancy just executing fundamentals at the right time. The transition to mount after the takedown is a great example.
