SamBO was based on dozens of different European and Asian arts, Judo being just one of many (SamBO has everything Judo has, and also many techniques which were never a part of Judo)... Meanwhile, Greek pankration and wrestling were MMA and NHB thousands of years ago. Most modern techniques were routine at the ancient Olympics.

Sambo was a groundfighting style before UFC 1 to a more significant degree than few western styles were, so if anyone was in a position to downplay the significance of BJJ he's a serious contender, but he doesn't. Instead he's focused on the undeniable impact that BJJ made.

BJJ comes from judo, Japanese jujitsu, and Catch Wrestling. There is a huge difference between judo ne-waza and BJJ. Judo ne-waza does not have the intricate positional hierarchy of BJJ. You need to watch -Royce vs Remco Pardoel and -Mackenzie Dern vs Savannah Nagi The behavior of those judoka (who lacked BJJ or Catch Wrestling) is typical of most pure judoka on the ground. They typically go to a loose turtle position or referee's position and try to defend against getting pinned. When BJ Penn was a BJJ white belt with good basics, he did judo ne-waza with pure judoka and was able to tap the judo black belts. As a person trained in both judo and BJJ, I can tell you right now that BJ Penn was not the only BJJ white belt to pull that off.

Meanwhile, Greek pankration and wrestling were MMA and NHB thousands of years ago. Most modern techniques were routine at the ancient Olympics.

I appreciate Khabib saying this. Sambo was a groundfighting style before UFC 1 to a more significant degree than few western styles were, so if anyone was in a position to downplay the significance of BJJ he's a serious contender, but he doesn't. Instead he's focused on the undeniable impact that BJJ made.

The two biggest things growing up in the 80's and 90's that led me to martial arts was The Karate Kid and watching Royce Gracie fight in UFC 1
If we don't consider mma fighters who study different disciplines and are the most complete and effective fighters, I think comparing fighters from different disciplines that are just trained in that one BJJ is probably on top of the most effective ones with sambo.
It was incredible watching the Gracies. Stunning technique, and a Champion’s heart. It’s an honor to start year off training in a Gracie gym.

The Gracies enjoyed dominating the early UFC until Kazushi Sakuraba humiliated them all
Yeah
Before Saku, there's Masahiko Kimura.
@@sopmodmp7 yes and no. Kimura was a bigger name than the Gracie's at the time, not to mention having a massive size advantage.
Yea Sakuraba bruised the Gracie pride for sure but when you look at the skill level plus his weight advantage, really its not so surprising. Renzo was the same weight at 185, but Royler 150, Royce 170 and Ryan between 175-185 depending on the event and if he wasn't out partying. Royce fought him for 1.5 hours in that first fight, then won a Unanimous decision in the second fight. Not exactly humiliating.
@@Guitibaca Royce was 176 and Saku was at 178 for the Grand Prix and with the exception of the opening round it was Saku dominating. not to mention Royce finished on the stool. Saku walked at a chubby 183lbs so outside of Royler, there were no major weight advantages. Though yes i wouldn't say humiliating so much as dominant
Keep in mind, yes.. not a lot of people didn't have the knowledge of grappling they have now, however, Royce fought in a no rule brawl fight with no gloves. There was however 2 rules: no eye pokes, no biting (although someone did bite him). He also fought 3 times in one night, and no time limit. This is more of what a real fight would be and thus what makes Royce a badass.
Gracies always changed the rules for their advantage. They did horrible in Japan against Japanese jujitsu. Sakuraba was the Gracie hunter. It took PED for them to beat him and Youth to beat Sakuraba in the final fight. It sure was fun watching Sakuraba mud stomp the whole family.
There's no such thing as Japanese jujutsu. That's just martial art cosplay. Sakuraba was a wrestler. Run your mouth about the gracies, Royce still changed the world. The gracies still changed the world.

It was originally supposed to be Rickson, not Royce. The problem is Rickson was bigger and shredded. He looked meaner so Rorion said to truly prove the effectiveness of Jiu Jitsu it would make sense to have Royce fight. He was skinny and didn’t look like a badass. Good choice on Rorion.
The main reason was that Rickson didn't give a fuck what Helio wanted.
Rickson also wanted to branch out on his own and demand ridiculous fucking money.
Rickson had branched off from Rorion's school and stole some of Rorion's students. That probably didn't go well, so Rorion picked Royce as the alternative.
Rickson was already winning MMA events in Japan before UFC 1, so Rickson promoted BJJ in Japan while Royce and Rorion promoted it in North America--division of labor.
I learnt BJJ bcus of Rickson but most of all I learnt it to protect myself and women from Pakistani grooming gangs
Pakistani are weak lol you can beat them even without training
As a big guy who often gets challenged for no reason by small guys who think they have some skill, I need to know the best way to eliminate them quickly before anyone notices and makes me out to be a bully.

All the grappling arts is like a melting pot now days
bjj is actually a newaza judo which is a part of traditional jiu-jitsu
BJJ comes from judo, Japanese jujitsu, and Catch Wrestling. There is a huge difference between judo ne-waza and BJJ. Judo ne-waza does not have the intricate positional hierarchy of BJJ. You need to watch -Royce vs Remco Pardoel and -Mackenzie Dern vs Savannah Nagi The behavior of those judoka (who lacked BJJ or Catch Wrestling) is typical of most pure judoka on the ground. They typically go to a loose turtle position or referee's position and try to defend against getting pinned. When BJ Penn was a BJJ white belt with good basics, he did judo ne-waza with pure judoka and was able to tap the judo black belts. As a person trained in both judo and BJJ, I can tell you right now that BJ Penn was not the only BJJ white belt to pull that off.

Almost every top MMA fighter these days studies at least some BJJ, or something similar like catch wrestling or SamBO. It's now a base requirement to survive MMA--the opposite of supplemental.

The Gracie family got DESTROYED in Pride.
POV:. No weight classes.
Frank Mir changed mma for me when he tapped Brock Lesnar
Khabib should fight Abu Dhabi, put action to his words.
He forgot Oleg Taktarov lost a fight to Renzo Gracie.
UFC 1 was just one big advertisement for Gracie Jiu Jitsu.
Yes, by showing how effective it was. So, it worked pretty well
No one knew! Not even sambo guys. Don't came saying that he did what he did because "the guys didn't know how to deal with Jiu-Jitsu". It's easy to say that now that everyone trains Jiu-Jitsu, specially Sambo guys. If you didn't train it you would be tapping too
Everyone says a thing for thirty or more years: 😐 Khabib says it in Russian accent: 😮😮😮😮😮😮😍😍😍😍😍😍 I mean, he’s just saying things we knew the whole time since 1993.
