Wrestling Defending Takedowns Effectively in BJJ and MMA Tutorial 

im bjj based but have always admired and envied wrestlers and the ease at which they control and dominate. im one of these people that if i can understand what is being done i can remember it and use it in class. I watch catch wrestling as much as i watch bjj moves and Id say more than half of what i use today in training and comp is from video learning. of all the channels i have followed, the type of grappling taught here, (which has a very MMA and catch wrestling feel to it)suits my idea of submission and control in grappling the best. I cannot tell you how appreciative I am of yours and Stuarts videos. Thankyou

Love Lyubo so much!!! I usually can't stand it if the instructor talks too much, but I just don't find myself skipping through the video because I know his explanations are very informative! He really makes me understand the concept of the move. I also love the respect he gives his sparring partner. Hoping for so much more videos from this guy!!

"If the referee doesn't see, poke his eyes" Lol

I had to come back and like the video when I clicked away and caught myself saying out loud, "Wow that was a really good video". I can only imagine how great a full class with you would be.

Lyubo is amazing, loving everything he puts out! Thanks for these, so simple and so effective.

Great to see wrestling coaches the understand BJJ

This is the best instructional video for wrestling I have seen! Excellent coaching right here

Damn dude. Short, concise, no show off bullshit, easy to follow. Well done.

Fenomenalno i jednostavno objasnjeno!!

One of the best channels!!! Lyubo always bro gs the heat.

Thank you VERY MUCH lyubo,i need some proper ideas and tips on how to defend against takedowns. Thank you once more for making this video and taking timeout of your day to help others.

Beautiful explanation & demonstration.

شكرا جزيلا كوش، فيديو رائع ومفيد.

Class 👏🏽 👏🏽

1. Now what if the opponent holding two legs 2. Opponent is holding around your waist with both hands inside your armpits 3. Opponent is holding around your waist with one hand inside your armpit 4 opponent is holding you and pushing u on the cage fence

First line of defense is hand then head then arm, sprawling is for when you your other defenses are beaten

gem of a channel!!

Great instruction. Great details.

Consider picking up the wrist when you drive that half.

what a legend

learned this defense in judo, except the judoka stay on top of the back (chest to his back) to prevent opponent from getting back up

awesome video.

Beautiful

Fantastic. Thank you.

awesome !!

wow. such a great tutorial video. thank you.

Loads of catch style here too 👍

❤❤❤❤Thank You

Wow just found this channel it's amazing! I like the content 👌 😊

Thank you

cool.

Great advise about the power of sprawling.. I also like the step by step lesson of keeping opponent in submission but what are the two moves you would consider after sprawling.. there is too many options, what are your two go to holds after sprawling? Thanks!

Nice video

Good job. Keep going

6:05 why does Lyubo say that the the single leg more dangerous when the head is outside than when the head is inside? I thought head inside single legs were preferred because no guillotine risk.

What beautiful posturing

free masterclass ! what more do you want ? thx for the lessons, coach :-)

such good information! thank you!

Genius!....(no cross faces?)

Again what he holds your leg like the way u show us and u don't have space on your back on the cage what will u do

BJJ

I'm glad the UK is getting some real wrestling practice. Was tired of watching the Americans dominate the grappling. Much love from the US. Go McGregor!

Can we please have the Russian tie to fireman's carry.

Tired of getting smashed by single legs, thx

Then why they cant defend khabib

My guy sounds like octane fron apex legends

Yeeah

Ok this shit works for no wrestlers

12:26 😂

“Sneaky side under” ? Lol

So one of the greatest things about making a video is that you can stop training long enough to catch your breath first ...just sayin
