I was so caught up watching the fight that I didn't pay attention to what was good and bad BJJ.Jiu Jitsu Maniachttp://bjjcompete.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30740798.post-2582896142408891452012-03-05T15:29:37.306-06:002012-03-05T15:29:37.306-06:00Good fight and good breakdown.

I suppose it could be "better"... but they also all keep tapping out...<br /><br />Also, "blech" on elbow hyperextension. Been there, done that -- owie owie owie ow! I have to watch the end of the video with my hand over the screen.lesliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05603807319832815566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30740798.post-16656890027084860832012-03-05T12:46:03.366-06:002012-03-05T12:46:03.366-06:00I know you don't like their attitudes, and hon...I know you don't like their attitudes, and honestly neither did I. But after watching the post-fight interview where she talks about getting into her opponent's head so they come at her during the fight, she seemed a lot more down to Earth and humble. I'm also a little surprised she didn't have some kind of crazy victory dance when she won, as I would have expected for someone with that kind of supposed ego and with that much build-up to the fight. I guess what I'm trying to say is that I see how she puts on a show. <br /><br />As far as the critique goes, I agree as far as Miesha is concerned. Maybe she thought her wrestling and grappling skills would be good enough? Rousey's longest fight before was less than a minute, so she did stretch it out about four minutes longer than usual--clearly she did SOME thing right. I also heard on a comment randomly that Tate can hyperextend her elbows and that's normal for her, which may explain how she survived that first armbar, and why Ronda had to crank so hard on the second one and still Tate doesn't have any broken bones yet. <br /><br />As far as Ronda's armbar style, it looks like she does that in all of them--knees wide, ankles crossed. Maybe it's a judo thing? Maybe that helps with something else I'm just not seeing, but I say whatever works, works!Aparnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06394608461189327565noreply@blogger.com
