Commentary was gold.
Lachlan had me checking if the video was in 1.5 speed lmao
Dang, this was like watching two cobras go at it. Saved to rewatch and analyze.
'That’s it, I'm taking the black belt back.'
Craig Jones is so creative with this leg entrances but this match in general so technical and quick. Has me rethinking my whole game..
"How long is his finger did you see that thing!? LOOK AT THAT THING!" 🤣
best comment by far
I'm starting to think every single Australian is hilarious
I wish I could be that calm in a leg lock battle.
This is forever undeniable no matter how far the sport progresses
4:37 is what Lachlan's wife sounds like when they finish their love making
What Is wrong with you
@@stevena8719 just that kind of guy!
7 minutes of going for heel hooks and it ends by head and arm choke??
Brutal choke bro
Katagatame
it looks like Lachlan was running out of fuel in the end, this match was intense and the difference in weight certainly made the difference
The art of misdirection
Almost every bjj roll I do
牛逼 lachlan is so cool that he coached up such a great athlete
One of the more exciting to watch matches as far as leg lockers goes. Glad to see a strangle finish. My white belt ass will def watch this again
How is your ass going?
What belt are you now?
7 minutes of leg locking, diving for submissions, athleticism and finally finish with a Head & Arm choke. Modern grappling has made a full circle back to it's catch wrestling origins.
Delusion at its finest. Both these guys started out as Gi Bjj players. Catch wrestling has no claim to their success AT ALL. And modern grappling having roots in catch wrestling? What about Judo and Japanese Jiu Jitsu? You know, actual grappling styles, not fake wrestling and rigged matches which is the origin of Catch? What about Modern Catch, where the best CACC competitor gets tapped by a 10th P guy thats not even in the top 100 No Gi competitors? You guys are literally a cult. Stop spreading misinformation.
@@imightdeletethislater3810 I think OP has a good point. No gi grappling isn't just mere jiu jitsu, it's become something quite different. I characterize it as submission wrestling or submission grappling but not jiu jitsu. Keenan also says more or less the same thing as OP but in a negative light: kzhead.info/sun/Y5muY8ule59vnI0/bejne.html
That pass at 2.06 is slick. A mini windshield wiper done at a crazy space through a tiny gap. Really cool to see
Wow, what a gem to watch!
Leg lock madness. Heel hook hell. Old boy gets caught and just decided to head and arm choke to get out of it. It's so anti climactic it's beautiful.
It's almost as though people now forget there are other submissions during comp once it turns into leg hunting lol
Austin Lance same thing when he fought leandro lo, he was after the legs non stop then finally went to Lo's back and RNC for the win
anti climactic? what a fuckin joke that was super slick
Not anti climatic at all, heel hooks are stupid this is a real submission
Was at a Craig Jones seminar at 10th planet portland in 2019 and Craig taught this exact defense to outside heel hook from double outside ashi. Have been to some Lachlan seminars as well on the 50-50, 80-20, 90-10 position sequences, too. To initiate the defense, you take a c grip in their armpit (right hand if they attack your right leg) in their thumb on backside and drive down. At the same time, scoop grip under their hip and try to keep their hips off the floor. This prevents them from being able to finisb and attack from double outside ashi. The right hand c grip feeds through into an underhook, just as you see Craig do here. The position basically then becomes a body lock like passing position with a natural option for the head-and-arm choke. Good stuff, really recommend the cost of a Craig or Lachlan seminar if you have the chance.
if graigs opponents are smart they analyze this match, there is probably nobody knowing his game better than lachlan.
Excluding Ryan being like 3-0 against him
Didn't Giles give craig his black belt?
@@gutz9866 yes
What a match. Great commentary too
These guys are setting the bar so high
This was a very interesting match two of the best leg lockers in the game it's crazy how Craig can twist and spin his way into almost any attack!
Great match, and awesome finish!
christ the commentary is hilarious
Wow! Just wow!
Top match
This is the future of bjj
Yes agreed.
@Hudson Hawk6 Same, not really a fan
Gordon Ryan thinks otherwise.
great match jeff glover vs jeff glover
Recognised the ref from an old white belt match of mine lmao gotta love the small world of bjj
Damn, what a counter to the leg lock. Slick. That earlier pass by Lachlan though, sheesh, that was fast.
love it!!!!! CRAIG JONES
beautiful. No winner or a loser in this match
Craig got me twice with that arm triangle when I rolled with him last year!
Craig is a BEAST!
This match is great, but the commentators are even better :-D
10/10.
Craigs a beast.
3:01 what is that, a tap?
Esse cara é liso e paciente. Craig
super high level !
Octopus escaping from a small hole in a boat....was thinking the exact same thing.
🔥
great fucking commentary and match
but the referee is Leteri?
Pray an act of perfect contrition everyday
what a pass... wow.
Great match🤙What's a good defense for that submission?
Touching the back of your neck with the arm closest to the opponent can create space
I’ve found that patting my opponent forcefully several times causes them to magically release this submission. Works well for lots of others, too. I think I discovered a really powerful pressure point attack. Shhh… don’t tell anybody!
@@james.randorff that is amazing
If it’s deep and tight there is no defense
Give your back
btw how much weight did graig have on lachi?
Mat Tricks this tournament was the same weight class. Believe it or not Craig and Giles are close in size. When they qualified for adcc last year they had a private match to see who would have to compete at 88kg. Craig drew the short end of the stick and was able to bulk up to about 86. Craig is bulking up significantly as of the past few months though. But at the time of this match they were close to the same size. Giles is shorter but dense.
wtf thats sick. we´ll try to visit Lachlans Seminar in Stuttgart, unfortunately he couldn´t do another one during his stay in Germany.
@@WhtMike2006 In a way it's a good thing, I hate to admit it but if Craig had won the lower weight category, he wouldn't have had the chance to submit Leandro Lo. And if he didn't submit Leandro Lo, he probably wouldn't be as big of a deal as he is now. And thanks to Craig's success, we know how awesome the Velachiraptor is too! I was pretty shocked by Craig's submission of Lo. I mean, Lo handily outpointed Gordon Ryan. It wasn't a dominant victory, but it wasn't really competitive either; at no point in time did Gordon Ryan have any success working his game. Granted, Gordon stepped in last minute, so it's not a fair showcase of what he can really do. But at the same time, Leandro Lo clearly demonstrated his ability to avoid leglocks in that superfight.
@@WhtMike2006 Lachlan is not the same size with Craig lol Lachlan is not where close to 85 kg at best maybe he is 80 kg or a bit heavier. Craig walks around 94 kg and fights at that weight or sometimes fights at 88 kg.
Its nice to see Lachlan Giles rolling with his coach, Craig jones
Actually Lachlan Giles is Craig Jones's coach. He received his black belt from Lachlan Giles.
Son Dinh Damn that's crazy. I wouldn't want to compete with my coach, and definitely not want to tap him. Lucky for me, I will NEVER be able to tap my coach lol.
@@sondn87 hes taking the piss
@@DaneJiujitsu but you know all big names can beat his coach easily
@Charm Kang all I know is he can beat YOU easy one arm behind his back in less than 10 seconds
Craig is so strong, the last head and arm choke is horrifying
Whenever I see a video with Lachlan Giles in the title I click it and wait for him to grab a foot.
BTW I love the sportsmanship in this video. Both were rolling full speed but ethically with respect and honour. No doubt they both came out of this having learned from it. Absolutely how it ought to be.
What a couple of beasts those two are.
Holy fuck
КРАСАВЦЫ!!!)))
Lachlan leglocks it's little similar like Craig leglock system... but this both athletes is dope
Man vs his old master
6:30
Семь минут пытались отломать друг другу ноги, а закончилось всё треугольником руками :))
Wow a BJJ match with good commentators. What fucking planet am I on right now?
Stay humble Craig
2:04 crazy passing
Me and friend bought a DVD of CraigJones and we wrote a review about it. Opinions on his DVD? bjj-world.com/craig-jones-down-under-leg-attacks-review/
These announcers definitely didn’t like Craig Jones lol
Nah just friendly jabs
5:35 What?
SHOU DE BOLA
All that and end up with a hidden arm choke lol
head and arm
Head and arm and shoulder
@@felipetejeda7545head and arm and shoulder and neck choke
3:20 “I’m calling it, I think Craig might be cheating”. Common man 😂
6:40 “I think maybe Craig greased up, I wouldn’t put it past him”...
2:03 7:00
this was so much more enjoyable once i turned the sound off
Bjj has turned into Catch wrestling.
Kalle Pikku only in no gi
Just a little overambitious for that leg lock. Well played by both though.
Great video other than the annoying commentator goon taking trash the whole time. Otherwise, it was awesome!
That pass from 2:08.00 to 2:08.02 is crazy.... Even at .25 speed it looks clean.... Fawk
I had to reduce the video to .5 so I can watch it in normal speed.
Craig let it go at 105
So Good I think Lochy would beat him in an mma fight
8 minutes of absolutely nothing
Jiu jitsu is become stupid. Where's the intensity in this rubbish?
P K these guys a killing those "intense guys " skill and calmness overcoming aggression and power the flow of real jiu jitsu
i was waiting for them to fuck
@@DaneJiujitsu bro u gay as fuk LMAO
lmfao, here I am again. I am a fool.
