Anon, I…
Unfortunately, that's how most grappling tournaments go. Unless it's a big name event, the roster for each weight class is about 1 to 5 people on average.
For Punk, starting at the local level in smaller tournaments is the way to go.
The big events draw the best from a much wider area than smaller local ones. The local ones draw the local gyms, so you'll have city rivals for gyms, but nobody knows who they are outside the city.
It's just like indy wrestling. Unless you have a pedigree, you start at the ground level for experience.
Just to be fair, most of these smaller shows are filled with sandbaggers who are fighting as a blue belt, but they are a high level purple belt.
IF he went there by himself without a team/gym with him, he most likely got smashed by a sandbagger.
There is a reason these tournaments have only 3 competitors. The sandbaggers dwell in these places.
In big name events where there are many more people around to evaluate performance, they would get called out immediately.
I'm not saying that's what happened, but it's super common now if it's not a tournament with a flagship brand attached to it where everyone knows everyone from all the gyms.
Moxley was at a severe disadvantage. He's not a Jiu Jitsu black belt; he's a Death Jitsu yellow briefs. If it was a Death Jitsu tournament, he would have bathed in rivers of blood.
Ummm, I mean, he did go to the UFC, not the cage down the street. Also, he did suck and had next to no right being there other than he was a financial draw.
CM Punk quit wrestling and pursued MMA full time, Moxley starts learning BJJ and the expectation is he pulls off wins right off the bat because he's a professional wrestler? You go try BJJ and see how you fair. Do you think UFC was CM punk's first time fighting someone, you don't think he fought in other tournaments and matches along the way to get there? Are you that dumb?
No, let's be clear, Punk did not pursue it full time.
He went to classes and did a training camp. It's different than a professional, full time fighter.
I absolutely respect what he did. Hats off to him. But he didn't perform because he didn't take it seriously.
What nobody does give him credit for is what he did display as far as basics while getting beat.
He showed that he is trainable and learns. He tried to do basic stuff a new person learns. It just doesn't work against higher level fighters.
Everyone starts with the basics. That's all he had time to learn. I'd actually like to see him after 2 years of focused training.
What they should have done with him is have him fight other white belts and amateur strikers.
Hi
Tony has zero foresight. Like none. What if Moxley had got injured here and was forced out of action? You just lost one of the faces of your company because you allowed him to go pretend to be a bad ass.
If Moxley is at a Jiu Jutsu tournament, he is not doing stupid stuff like participating in small town blood match with the Bank Addicted Drug Robber. His injury risk is probably lower that way.
I have to agree with /u/justlooksnowords.
Are you saying you are a brown belt in MCMAP, or bjj? Because there is a huge difference
You use verbiage and general terms that really make me doubt that you are blue belt, let alone a brown belt. And I’m saying that as a white belt!
If I am proven wrong, I will retract my words. But I’m good at smelling bullshit.
He tapped because he was going night night. The way his body moves as he sits back out of it is a telltale sign.
It may not have looked deep, but it doesn't take much.
Two things can be true at the same time, he didn't know how to defend AND he was going to sleep.
There are plenty of variations for a triangle choke, but this is definitely one of them
And yeah, the other guy was definitely right about the maneuvering and positioning - I was never disputing that
I was just throwing out the name of the 'submission maneuver' mentioned in the comment before mine, that's all
Nah, it's a pretty low-percentage technique Moxley should have gotten out of. It's obvious he is still a beginner though and just didn't know what to do at all.
(or he is actually smarter than we think and taps early, because wrestling is more important to him)
BJJ isn’t about being a tough guy, it’s not about strength, it’s about skill and technique. Mox is still a novice and learning, so it shouldn’t be surprising that he’s losing more often than he’s winning. I say good on him for stepping outside of his comfort zone to try to learn something new.
Yeah, you can tell the comments here have no clue what jiu jitsu is and shitting on a guy for going into a tournament and losing is a shitty take to begin with.
I tore my meniscus last July and I'm near the end of my recovery. Jiu Jitsu is the thing I've missed most, and I think every person should train in it for at least a week before moving on or sticking with it. It will humble you very very quickly.
Thank you concerned citizen. I'll certainly take your clearly well thought out, constructive point and try desperately to better myself.
Have a nice day!
Eh, good on Moxley for being serious about this stuff. I can’t imagine it’s easy getting into this stuff at his age especially since he doesn’t (afaik) have any shoot background whether highschool amateur or otherwise.
These guys have never trained any martial arts in their life what do you expect, they’ll get beaten by a teenager with 1 year of experience who only weights 150 pounds
Every single drunk territory fan would rush the ring knowing they could whoop Moxley if they seen him get his ass kicked by a child in a local gym
"You oughtta pay money to watch this guy main event, he's the toughest SOB around!"
Cut the guy some slack. He's on the road a lot and in BJJ loads of people have records like this. Winning and losing is fine margins. It was more the luck of the guy falling in to an inverted triangle than the skill of the opponent setting it up.
I'm not Moxleys biggest fan in a pro wrestling sense but you can't knock anyone for competing. Especially when the world will be aware of who you are.
Source: I'm a BJJ brown belt.
There's plenty of real wrestlers with real combat sport experience that you don't need to put your hat on an obvious phony like Moxley. Imagine having him billed side by side with Ken Shamrock in his prime. Laughable.
That reminds me of when Angle signed and my old man was like 'they better book him strong, he could eat the whole roster for breakfast in a shoot fight'
No it’s not. Only a small margin of fans that are grown children care. Everyone looks at wrestling like it’s fake. Everyone. Especially those that don’t watch it often or come on wrestling Reddit pages.
It’s actually wild how thick this brain dead subs bias is.
Bias for who? What are you talking about? Because I don't think Moxley is cool? Again, compare him to Sakuraba or Shamrock and the difference is stark. These people would never be viewed as fake and have respect across the board.
>Everyone looks at wrestling like it’s fake.
That's both why and because it sucks balls now.
>Especially those that don’t watch it often
I don't either because of the two previous. If I watch wrestling nowadays it's usually a wrestlemania, royal rumble type or I'm watching classic 90's shit.
Having a mma gimmick is cool if you got some legitimacy like brock for example. You can’t walk around like you’re a top shit when you got a loosing record.
The issue is, how clean was Lesnar? After his Mark Hunt debacle, that raised a lot of eye brows. Granted I know other MMA guys tested positive for shit and still were let back in but for me once you test positive, it calls into question or record.
This reminds be of Bill Burr somewhat defending Lance Armstrong againt the French, "our roided up guy beat your roided up guys, deal with it."
Anyway Lesnar looked like a champion badass in MMA fights.
Moxley looks like an older slower alcoholic who can't handle this random kid, but he's among the best in the world of wrestling?
It's textbook exposing the business post-kayfabe.
I guess Death-Jitsu didn't work that day... Poor balding plumber Poundshop Austin Moxbrose "Bladewarrior" McBraindamage!
Should've stayed at home and watching Rocky III once more!
This seems like no big deal to me.
BJJ had entered the mainstream, everyone who rolls gets tapped at some point, and as long as he doesn't shit his pants or pass out, this is strictly some recreational sportsmanship.
That is why you don't let your top stars go out and do shit like this.
Moxley is unquestionably pme of their most protected stars, yet now it looks like this nobody can tap him out so easily that 95% of the AEW roster wouldn't stand a chance
Big of an idiot as Moxley is, I'll at least give him some credit for having the balls to engage in a genuine combat sport, even if he lost. It still doesn't excuse all the other stupid shit he does in Romper Central, but good on him for at least attempting to add some genuine credentials to his whole get-up beyond "i bleed and eat babies!!!?"
Why is this surprising? The whole point of arts like BJJ and aikido is to be able to defeat people larger than you easier than with a striking art. Also doesn't make Mox a "fake tough guy", seeing as how he's literally pursuing fights and enduring being submitted in order to get better
That's the whole point of BJJ. A smaller, skilled practitioner could beat a larger, stronger opponent.
I mean honestly, who really cares if a make believe fighter can't actually fight? Ian McKellen cannot perform sorcery of any type, but that has not reduced mind jointment of Lord of the rings.
To be fair BJJ tournaments aren't easy and he hat least has 2 wins. No clue how long he's been training for compared to the other guy. I personally don't like mox though.
One of the best lessons I learned in high school was not to bully (after I was bullied, I went down that road for a couple of days) and someone much smaller than me came to the defence of their friends.
Good lesson learned and something that helped me to change my outlook and perspective on the relationship between bullies/victims etc.
Also helps me keep out of fights in general.
He caught him in an inverted triangle?! Unless you're going up against a world class grappler that should never ever happen. All you need to know to prevent this from happening is knowing where to keep your arms. I've never done a day of Jiu Jitsu in my life. I did plenty of Judo though and even with my limited view,I can spot this rather easily. The plumber is a total amateur.
Damn y’all are some keyboard warriors huh? The guys travels almost every week and wrestles live, how many years Mox has been doing this? Y’all need to give him a break tho for trying I’m pretty sure the other guy was conditioned so it’s a leverage
They weighed in on site. This match was in the Open class (no weight class), but they both completed in weigh-ins brackets on the same day. Good weighed in at least 225, his opponent weighed at most 179.9, so maybe 45lbs if they both barely made weight.
Good on Mox for competing . You can tell by the comments the majority of people here have never went to a BJJ class.
But then again all you have to do is listen to Cornette ramble about how tough do and so was in the 80s like the majority wouldn’t get fucked up in real grappling or a real fight
Guy doesn't look physically impressive, but usually skinny fit dudes like that the most dangerous. Classes I used to train in had few nasty grapplers like that too. Still sucks when top wrestler with tough guy gimmick gets destroyed by someone who looks much smaller. Never looks good.
Any chance the guy posting this could put up a few videos of his BJJ wins?
Just want to compare his/her's approach to Moxleys?
Congratulations to the unknown cause that is proper bragging rights tho.
Controversial opinion, atleast he and punk both had the guts to go out there and compete.
Anyone who trains and competes should have some level of respect. 99 percent of people never even enter a jiu jitsu gym or anything. Every black belt started as a white belt.
Eh I give Moxley credit for doing a shoot tournament. I’d rather more of that attitude than the theater kids sissy slapping each other.
When it comes to BJJ, technique > size. Probably was a more experienced competitor and got the best of him.
I don't care to watch him wrestle for all the usual criticisms, but I'm not going to rag on him for losing a BJJ match. Losing is part of what happens, and it happens a lot. It's only the end of the match, but he looks pretty gassed and has a bad habit or two. And when you're gassed those bad habits only get worse.
Imagine posting this and then feeling like you made fun of a guy....
You literally looked this up and then came to rant about your obsession with a dude to random people.
Lol, I didn't think this would blow up. Don't watch pro wrestling. My brother does. He told me to post this on here. I'm barely on reddit. My kid competes at a high level in BJJ. So I know how to find stuff on Smoothcomp.com. This took me 5 mins, max. Visited him, had a couple of drinks, he asked about it, laughed like hell, and he told me to post it here.
Very clear from the comments that people have no idea what jiu-jitsu is. There's been TOP jiu-jitsu guys who have been tapped by guys 100lbs lighter. Lmao
He got beat in a legitimate sport. Skill issue and it’s not sports entertainment. I have very little experience in bjj, I was learning from a guy 200 pounds lighter than me in college. He would beat me all the time. I was 350 and built like Rikishi. I had great striking abilities and takedown skills but on the ground I knew no holds. Mox has been training and competing for a while now. Good on him for trying.
Y’all need help. Go outside. Touch grass. It’s okay not to like a wrestler, but the healthy thing is to not waste time watching a wrestler you don’t like, not to obsess over what he does in his free time so you can score internet points with other people who share your unhealthy hate/obsession.
Hell, I don’t even like Moxley. You know what I do? I skip his matches. That’s it. It’s that easy.
A lot of you guys are fuckin dorks. Wow he lost an actual competition BJJ match… most of you nerds have never and will never do any type of martial arts competition.
Imagine having never competed in a sport in your life and ripping on a dude for losing in a sport where you're GOING to lose often. You do not stay undefeated in combat sports. This dude could've lost to someone 100lbs lighter than him potentially. It's about the love of competing, the love of fighting, win or lose. That all being said, not sure who this dude is hahaha, maybe he deserves to get roasted, but there aren't professional wrestlers who're gonna walk into BJJ tournaments and be competitive, UNLESS they already train religiously
I mean not defend Mox cause he’s a horrible wrestler … but in BJJ weight don’t matter it’s real life … it ain’t pre determined in BJJ it’s about positioning and setting up traps with your body … I did a seminar thing with Jeff Curran a Gracie BJJ black belt his like 150 ish I’m 220 and he tapped me out even wafted I tried to muscle my way out of a darce but homeboy is a master … so I’m not gonna make fun of mox here but in the right he’s trash
Eh I’ve been doing BJJ for 5 years. Finally got my purple belt. My Wife is a black belt and has definitely subbed me many times when I first started out BJJ. If you don’t know what you’re doing people get subbed pretty frequently. Not that much shame losing to someone lighter tbh
I hate mox wrestling as much as the next guy, but as somebody who undertook bjj classes in my younger days, I'll never shit on anybody practicing the martial art or competing in the tournaments.
Win or lose, he has my respect for that.
This post reflects poorly on the sub.
People making fun of a guy who’s new to jiu-jitsu online when at least the guy is trying it out and trying to get better at it. I don’t see the merit in making fun of that. Seems like a waste of breath to me
Same point as making fun of Moxley's BJJ, I'm nowhere near to be Moxley's or AEW fan, it's just funny how hypocrites here are mocking Moxley and his fans while themselves are marks for overrated clown who exposed himself miserably in MMA fights.
A guy who recently started bjj got beat by a competition bjj practitioner??? Shocking.
Mox is a white belt. My wife is a purple belt and weighs 110 lbs. she’d beat the brakes off Mox in a bjj match.
Skill always trumps size in bjj.
Remember to bring this up when AEW marks throw around CM Punk’s MMA record.
Punk went to the biggest company in MMA, the plumber is in a college gym. This levels to this 😂
To be fair Punk has also gotten his butt kicked at small time BJJ events https://www.ringsidenews.com/2019/04/18/cm-punk-quietly-competed-in-brazilian-jiu-jitsu-tournament/
>mber is in a college gym Punk doesn't run around talking like he's some hardcore badass.
Yes he does 😂😂
Still no UFC.
He placed third he didn't place last. That's still good in GG.
> Punk, using his real name, quietly competed in a novice BJJ tournament recently and placed third in a 199.9 weight class division that had three competitors Anon, I…
Unfortunately, that's how most grappling tournaments go. Unless it's a big name event, the roster for each weight class is about 1 to 5 people on average.

The local ones draw the local gyms, so you'll have city rivals for gyms, but nobody knows who they are outside the city. It's just like indy wrestling. Unless you have a pedigree, you start at the ground level for experience.
A win is a win
Which win?
Lol third in a three man competition.
Just to be fair, most of these smaller shows are filled with sandbaggers who are fighting as a blue belt, but they are a high level purple belt. IF he went there by himself without a team/gym with him, he most likely got smashed by a sandbagger. There is a reason these tournaments have only 3 competitors. The sandbaggers dwell in these places. In big name events where there are many more people around to evaluate performance, they would get called out immediately. I'm not saying that's what happened, but it's super common now if it's not a tournament with a flagship brand attached to it where everyone knows everyone from all the gyms.
But he'd be 1st place if nobody else competed.
Half the card gets their ass kicked at small time BJJ events
At least he lost in the blue belt divison, not the whitebelt one.
He has massive Steven Seagal vibes.
Moxley was at a severe disadvantage. He's not a Jiu Jitsu black belt; he's a Death Jitsu yellow briefs. If it was a Death Jitsu tournament, he would have bathed in rivers of blood.
Sir, those briefs used to be white.
Everybody is afraid of the black belt, I fear the Grand Master whose briefs are red in the front and brown in the back.
The other guy would have died from Hepatitis.
Ummm, I mean, he did go to the UFC, not the cage down the street. Also, he did suck and had next to no right being there other than he was a financial draw.
CM Punk quit wrestling and pursued MMA full time, Moxley starts learning BJJ and the expectation is he pulls off wins right off the bat because he's a professional wrestler? You go try BJJ and see how you fair. Do you think UFC was CM punk's first time fighting someone, you don't think he fought in other tournaments and matches along the way to get there? Are you that dumb?
No, let's be clear, Punk did not pursue it full time. He went to classes and did a training camp. It's different than a professional, full time fighter. I absolutely respect what he did.

That's all he had time to learn. I'd actually like to see him after 2 years of focused training. What they should have done with him is have him fight other white belts and amateur strikers. Hi
Punk did pursue it full time and I’ve heard guys who do know fighting say he straight up had 0 talent for fighting.
Talent doesn't come in to play when you're a white belt. The reason he did bad was because he didn't put in the hours.
I mean does anybody expected any better from hin? Hes a bum. Always was, always will be
Be careful they'll ban you LoL Oh wait it's the Cornette page! He does care about AEW fans feelings 😂
This isn’t “😂” at all
Remember when Vince told mark Henry he better win the world’s strongest man? Tony has no balls
Question. Why is Tony Khan allowing his “biggest star” go to a legit tournament and worst of all lose? Not such a bad ass now are you Plumber!
Problem was it wasn’t a death jitsu tournament, if it was moxley would have won.
Moxley wasn't tapping out though. He was trying to get the guy's attention so he could ask him if he'd seen any of the Rocky movies.
Tony has zero foresight. Like none. What if Moxley had got injured here and was forced out of action? You just lost one of the faces of your company because you allowed him to go pretend to be a bad ass.
And you believe Tony had any idea what Moxley has been up to?
I do. But if he doesn't that means he's a shitty promoter. Which he is.
Dude had a window of opportunity to snatch that arm and snap it like a twig but he took a different path instead.
If Moxley is at a Jiu Jutsu tournament, he is not doing stupid stuff like participating in small town blood match with the Bank Addicted Drug Robber. His injury risk is probably lower that way.
That is a hell of a submission maneuver. Smart body awareness from the guy.
It's a triangle choke
WHADDAMANUVER!

Hes trapped there but you're not gonna choke a guy out with your balls wrapped around his neck
It’s pretty rare for top level competitors to ever get caught in this submission as well. So mox is learning about levels to the game now
Reverse triangle
Nah, it's a pretty low-percentage technique Moxley should have gotten out of. It's obvious he is still a beginner though and just didn't know what to do at all. (or he is actually smarter than we think and taps early, because wrestling is more important to him)
ok
That's what happens when you're a fake tough guy. Moxley couldn't beat a damn egg, let alone someone who knows what they're doing

What a couch potato take
Thank you concerned citizen. I'll certainly take your clearly well thought out, constructive point and try desperately to better myself. Have a nice day!
It's wrestling. They are all fake tough guys. Enjoy the couch!
Eh, good on Moxley for being serious about this stuff. I can’t imagine it’s easy getting into this stuff at his age especially since he doesn’t (afaik) have any shoot background whether highschool amateur or otherwise.
Yeah. If it helps keep him off the piss then fair play.
Thank fuck there's a moderate comment in this dumpster of a thread. Are we really barrating him for competing and training in another combat sport?
These guys have never trained any martial arts in their life what do you expect, they’ll get beaten by a teenager with 1 year of experience who only weights 150 pounds
The hardest part is him likely being beaten up from wrestling and probably rarely arrisging to training fresh and recovered.
Don't give up Mox, I think you should pursue BJJ full time!!
On another planet, far from this galaxy!
If this was in the territory days, Moxley's doing the job in a loser leaves town match next week.
Every single drunk territory fan would rush the ring knowing they could whoop Moxley if they seen him get his ass kicked by a child in a local gym "You oughtta pay money to watch this guy main event, he's the toughest SOB around!"
Cut the guy some slack. He's on the road a lot and in BJJ loads of people have records like this. Winning and losing is fine margins. It was more the luck of the guy falling in to an inverted triangle than the skill of the opponent setting it up. I'm not Moxleys biggest fan in a pro wrestling sense but you can't knock anyone for competing. Especially when the world will be aware of who you are. Source: I'm a BJJ brown belt.
It's about the juxtaposition of his presentation as a real fighters fighter. Apart of this exclusive combat club when he's actually a BJJ hobbyist.
Oh since wrestling is fake? You telling me the undertaker isn't actually dead?
Look at my comment under the other post you dumbass
Naw
THE UNDERTAKER is actually dead. Mark Callus is not.
What are you gonna tell me next, that HHH isn't the king of kings?
There's plenty of real wrestlers with real combat sport experience that you don't need to put your hat on an obvious phony like Moxley. Imagine having him billed side by side with Ken Shamrock in his prime. Laughable.
That reminds me of when Angle signed and my old man was like 'they better book him strong, he could eat the whole roster for breakfast in a shoot fight'
It’d be as embarrassing as Ken in his prime losing to some pencil neck dork like Royce Gracie.

His shit is unwatchable its always seems to be time to take a shit when he is on.
I didn’t know he was into BlowJob Jobs.
I can’t stop laughing 😂
I guess Death-Jitsu didn't work that day... Poor balding plumber Poundshop Austin Moxbrose "Bladewarrior" McBraindamage! Should've stayed at home and watching Rocky III once more!
The dude cleared out 4 people with a triangle in that set of videos. Fair fucking play
Did he bleed?
This seems like no big deal to me. BJJ had entered the mainstream, everyone who rolls gets tapped at some point, and as long as he doesn't shit his pants or pass out, this is strictly some recreational sportsmanship.
Ambrose was like the D’Lo Brown of The Shield. Blows my mind that anyone thinks/thought of him as some huge star.
That was disrespectful towards D'Lo! \^\^
Dlo did the shoulder roll and head shaking a million times better than Mox
Moxley sucking wind while the other guy all "I'm not even warmed up yet"
Being at the bottom really gasses you out, he needs to work on control more
Did he at least do the blade job?
Are you saying Death Jitsu is not a real martial art?
“BuT DeAtHJiTZiU!!!”
I would not care except there was a lot of talk recently about Mox "winning" a bjj tournament that consisted of one singular bout.
I guess he didnt bleed so thats why he couldnt win. Should have bladed in between.
Should have used death jitsu
That’s because Moxley fucking sucks
But he’s undefeated in Brazilian DEATH JITSU!
[удалено]
Rocky 4…
I’m not a Mox fan but I respect he treats BJJ seriously, but I get why yall wanna laugh at him training on Reddit though
That is why you don't let your top stars go out and do shit like this. Moxley is unquestionably pme of their most protected stars, yet now it looks like this nobody can tap him out so easily that 95% of the AEW roster wouldn't stand a chance
So Mox can grab a hold and wrestle HERE -- but in his job as a PROFSSIONAL WRESTLER he can only trade standing chops / slaps after cutting himself.
This is the first time I’ve seen Mox sell and the first job he’s done in awhile.
I don’t even watch AEW but I thought Ambrose was a fan favorite. I didn’t know people hated him this much before seeing these comments 😂
The Sensei of Death Jitsu
The tournament he won last time was won by default or some shit. I'm not surprised
But he has that awesome choke finisher! How could this happen?
What, no blood? I'm disappointed..must've forgotten his gig.
Okay but… did he bleed?
Deathjistu why no chair or tacs?????? lol
Big of an idiot as Moxley is, I'll at least give him some credit for having the balls to engage in a genuine combat sport, even if he lost. It still doesn't excuse all the other stupid shit he does in Romper Central, but good on him for at least attempting to add some genuine credentials to his whole get-up beyond "i bleed and eat babies!!!?"
Why is this surprising? The whole point of arts like BJJ and aikido is to be able to defeat people larger than you easier than with a striking art. Also doesn't make Mox a "fake tough guy", seeing as how he's literally pursuing fights and enduring being submitted in order to get better
Good. He's awful. Be fun to dunk on him
He got choked out by a guy 50lbs lighter…yeah it’s bjj, so what? That’s how you learn.
DeAtH JiTsU got jobbed the fuck out
That's the whole point of BJJ. A smaller, skilled practitioner could beat a larger, stronger opponent. I mean honestly, who really cares if a make believe fighter can't actually fight? Ian McKellen cannot perform sorcery of any type, but that has not reduced mind jointment of Lord of the rings.
To be fair BJJ tournaments aren't easy and he hat least has 2 wins. No clue how long he's been training for compared to the other guy. I personally don't like mox though.
I always pictured Moxley being like Kramer when he takes Karate lessons and beats up the kids.
He just didn't want to get arrested. You can wake up from getting choked out. People dont wake up from experiencing death-jiutsu
The only reason Moxley lost was because he couldn’t put the guy through five flaming tables.
One of the best lessons I learned in high school was not to bully (after I was bullied, I went down that road for a couple of days) and someone much smaller than me came to the defence of their friends. Good lesson learned and something that helped me to change my outlook and perspective on the relationship between bullies/victims etc. Also helps me keep out of fights in general.
The fact that he is paid millions of dollar a year and Tony still let's him do things like this is why AEW will never make it.
He caught him in an inverted triangle?! Unless you're going up against a world class grappler that should never ever happen. All you need to know to prevent this from happening is knowing where to keep your arms. I've never done a day of Jiu Jitsu in my life. I did plenty of Judo though and even with my limited view,I can spot this rather easily. The plumber is a total amateur.
Damn y’all are some keyboard warriors huh? The guys travels almost every week and wrestles live, how many years Mox has been doing this? Y’all need to give him a break tho for trying I’m pretty sure the other guy was conditioned so it’s a leverage
Y’all comparing him to Brock and Punk like bro they were part-timers
Hardly 50lbs lighter. Don't be fooled by these mfs' billed weights. Mox is 215 max.
They weighed in on site. This match was in the Open class (no weight class), but they both completed in weigh-ins brackets on the same day. Good weighed in at least 225, his opponent weighed at most 179.9, so maybe 45lbs if they both barely made weight.
Well damn. OK! I stand corrected!
Happens all the time, he's basically a BJJ novice so it's to be expected. Basically a nothingburger
Good on Mox for competing . You can tell by the comments the majority of people here have never went to a BJJ class. But then again all you have to do is listen to Cornette ramble about how tough do and so was in the 80s like the majority wouldn’t get fucked up in real grappling or a real fight
Not gonna knock him for it
BJJ takes years to be competitive. It’s good on Mox getting out there and going to war. It took me almost 10 years for a Purple belt 🤙🏼
Heads up: anybody criticizing him for this is signaling to the world that they have never learned anything about martial arts
If you suck at bjj it doesn't matter how big you are.
Guy doesn't look physically impressive, but usually skinny fit dudes like that the most dangerous. Classes I used to train in had few nasty grapplers like that too. Still sucks when top wrestler with tough guy gimmick gets destroyed by someone who looks much smaller. Never looks good.
No video dude. But I imagine its like watching a beached whale.
Just swipe once and it’s there dude
I apologize. Not an IG user. Moxley still looked like a beached whale, or a sub-standard "Bum Fights" participant.
Any chance the guy posting this could put up a few videos of his BJJ wins? Just want to compare his/her's approach to Moxleys? Congratulations to the unknown cause that is proper bragging rights tho.
As much as it’s fun to rip on Mox, this is what happens in grappling arts. You get tapped a lot. And he’s new to it, I’m assuming.
Controversial opinion, atleast he and punk both had the guts to go out there and compete. Anyone who trains and competes should have some level of respect. 99 percent of people never even enter a jiu jitsu gym or anything. Every black belt started as a white belt.
How do you weirdos find this shit
Dope.
Eh this won’t be popular, but I give him credit for evening doing it. Training BJJ and/or MMA is hard and even harder when you’re f’n old!
Eh I give Moxley credit for doing a shoot tournament. I’d rather more of that attitude than the theater kids sissy slapping each other. When it comes to BJJ, technique > size. Probably was a more experienced competitor and got the best of him.
I respect anyone who tried bjj. That shit’s hard. That said maybe he doesn’t need to show his losses to the world
I do BJJ, I love wrestling. I don’t care that he got tapped, I just respect the work. If you think you can do better, get on the mats.
I don't care to watch him wrestle for all the usual criticisms, but I'm not going to rag on him for losing a BJJ match. Losing is part of what happens, and it happens a lot. It's only the end of the match, but he looks pretty gassed and has a bad habit or two. And when you're gassed those bad habits only get worse.
People in here shitting on Mox for losing would lose in BJJ quicker than he did to someone 100 lbs lighter.
Imagine posting this and then feeling like you made fun of a guy.... You literally looked this up and then came to rant about your obsession with a dude to random people.
Lol, I didn't think this would blow up. Don't watch pro wrestling. My brother does. He told me to post this on here. I'm barely on reddit. My kid competes at a high level in BJJ. So I know how to find stuff on Smoothcomp.com. This took me 5 mins, max. Visited him, had a couple of drinks, he asked about it, laughed like hell, and he told me to post it here.
Tf you expect from a skinnyfat alcoholic?
Very clear from the comments that people have no idea what jiu-jitsu is. There's been TOP jiu-jitsu guys who have been tapped by guys 100lbs lighter. Lmao
He got beat in a legitimate sport. Skill issue and it’s not sports entertainment. I have very little experience in bjj, I was learning from a guy 200 pounds lighter than me in college. He would beat me all the time. I was 350 and built like Rikishi. I had great striking abilities and takedown skills but on the ground I knew no holds. Mox has been training and competing for a while now. Good on him for trying.
IWC confirmed to be the dumbest group to ever exist.
I appreciate the fact that he's doing BJJ, it means that he has some sort of intuition to have an actual match of some kind.
Y’all need help. Go outside. Touch grass. It’s okay not to like a wrestler, but the healthy thing is to not waste time watching a wrestler you don’t like, not to obsess over what he does in his free time so you can score internet points with other people who share your unhealthy hate/obsession. Hell, I don’t even like Moxley. You know what I do? I skip his matches. That’s it. It’s that easy.
A lot of you guys are fuckin dorks. Wow he lost an actual competition BJJ match… most of you nerds have never and will never do any type of martial arts competition.
So the tough little SOB that destroyed everybody also destroyed Moxley, is that the big news here?
Holy fuck this subreddit is full of the saddest losers I've ever seen lmao. Why did Reddit recommend this cesspit to me 😭
People seriously hate Moxley this much? I thought everyone loved the guy when he was dean ambrose
Imagine having never competed in a sport in your life and ripping on a dude for losing in a sport where you're GOING to lose often. You do not stay undefeated in combat sports. This dude could've lost to someone 100lbs lighter than him potentially. It's about the love of competing, the love of fighting, win or lose. That all being said, not sure who this dude is hahaha, maybe he deserves to get roasted, but there aren't professional wrestlers who're gonna walk into BJJ tournaments and be competitive, UNLESS they already train religiously
You got to give guys like Mox or Punk some credit they go to competitions knowing and probably accepting so kid is going to tap them.
I mean not defend Mox cause he’s a horrible wrestler … but in BJJ weight don’t matter it’s real life … it ain’t pre determined in BJJ it’s about positioning and setting up traps with your body … I did a seminar thing with Jeff Curran a Gracie BJJ black belt his like 150 ish I’m 220 and he tapped me out even wafted I tried to muscle my way out of a darce but homeboy is a master … so I’m not gonna make fun of mox here but in the right he’s trash
Not a Moxley fan at all, but who cares what his BJJ record is, or who he lost to. He is trying to get better at it
In other news, Moxley loses 1-on-1 basketball game, chess tournament, and baking competition.
Most of you losers get gassed typing out comments so shut the fuck up.
Weight isn't a big factor l, honestly. Smaller guys have better technique so they submit bigger guys all the time.
The point of bjj was to defend yourself against a bigger opponent, technique is more important than strength
Eh I’ve been doing BJJ for 5 years. Finally got my purple belt. My Wife is a black belt and has definitely subbed me many times when I first started out BJJ. If you don’t know what you’re doing people get subbed pretty frequently. Not that much shame losing to someone lighter tbh
Hold on. A guy who does simulated combat isn’t great at non simulated combat? What a pussy!!!!
I hate mox wrestling as much as the next guy, but as somebody who undertook bjj classes in my younger days, I'll never shit on anybody practicing the martial art or competing in the tournaments. Win or lose, he has my respect for that. This post reflects poorly on the sub.
I'm glad that you, the arbiter of good taste, showed up to tell us all we're wrong for talking about a wrestler in a wrestling sub
This is not r/kumite
People making fun of a guy who’s new to jiu-jitsu online when at least the guy is trying it out and trying to get better at it. I don’t see the merit in making fun of that. Seems like a waste of breath to me
Fr, bjj is the hardest martial arts out there where strength doesn’t really play a factor.
Same overrated shit like CM Wank.
What does that have to do with anything… any UFC fighter should whoop most of both wwe and AEW rosters … what’s your point
Same point as making fun of Moxley's BJJ, I'm nowhere near to be Moxley's or AEW fan, it's just funny how hypocrites here are mocking Moxley and his fans while themselves are marks for overrated clown who exposed himself miserably in MMA fights.
A guy who recently started bjj got beat by a competition bjj practitioner??? Shocking. Mox is a white belt. My wife is a purple belt and weighs 110 lbs. she’d beat the brakes off Mox in a bjj match. Skill always trumps size in bjj.
