KarateMark Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 There were several times where I saw submission opportunities. Jones submission defense was terrible in the guard, in that he left himself wide open for several things. But Rua, so focused on going for his leg, missed all of it. Several times he nearly dove himself right into a triangle, leavng one arm way out, and the other nearly behind Rua's crotch. Anybody with a strong guard would have choked his *** out or tore his arm off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KarateMark Posted March 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 You see things differently when you're watching it from your couch. That is true. However, that doesn't change the fact that Jones did make several defensive mistakes in the guard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olsen Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 I did notice it as well, i dunno really. Shogun was never super aggrisive fighter on the ground, even tho he is a BB, he also looked kinda dazed the whole time, trying to survive more than being offensive.
