R.I.P. Master Robinson (March 3rd, 2014)

Saw a video of Billy Robinson teaching an Achilles lock on Facebook. I just happened to stumble upon it a few days ago. As I read through the comment section, I'm shocked to learn he passed. What a phenomenal teacher. I've never studied wrestling but would've given anything to have trained with him. R.I.P and thank for sharing this gift with us.❤

Josh Barnett brought up Billy Robinson on the Joe Rogan podcast, and because of these videos I knew who he was talking about.It's awesome that you guys support and give us access to such a legend. Thanks guys.

Billy was and still is the cacc wrestling wizard. Rip you great man

God rest his soul he was one of the greatest

It is always interesting to watch Billy Robinson. He is so knowledgeable. He can inflict pain from any position. :0

In 1974 I started training in karate and didn’t know that the great Billy Robinson was teaching catch wrestling in Wigan (I lived in Warrington) This was all pre UFC so none of us knew what did and didn’t work on the street. Missed out big time 🙁

I love how he hand his cane off and like clock work go to teaching. Simple, quick, to the point. What a legend.

Billy started lying about his age in the late 1960's and he always claimed to be 6-7 years younger than he was so as too not put off the show premoters.... He trained with Billy Riley in Wigan and was only 14 years younger than Tommy Moore (Jack Dempsey) when my dad trained and wrestled with them in the late 60's and early 70's which would make him 78 or 79 years old in the video... A remarkable thing considering he had trained and fought hard for over 60 years at this point. A true Martial Arts legend. RIP BILLY.

Billy Robinson is one of greatest in wrestling. Good bye legend your name will always remembered.

Coach Robinson has truly immense hands! What a great tool for grappling!

If time travel were possible imagine going back to train under Farmer Burns and later Billy Riley. Two legendary masters of the art of submission catch wrestling aka hook wrestling.

Man! Billy Robinson was great.

Billy Robinson and Peter Maivia once had a famous fight in a restaurant where Peter threw Billy through the glass window. Billy came back and put Peter in a hold which he couldn't escape so he started biting Billy's face and Billy had to flee. After that fight Billy Robinson famously said "I guess the toughest guy really isn't the best wrestler or shooter but the guy who's willing to endure anything and do anything to kill the other guy. and that's not me."

Must have been like a Haku vs a William Regal or something.) William Regal is probably the most technical modern day wrestler..

Truly a lion amongst men. Much respect.

Coming from a BJJ background, I sometimes feel like we're in a phase of reinventing the wheel that catch wrestling already invented.

you're not alone: many arts lost their way through the years, making things less dangerous, more complicated and the like. it's the same thing that always happens, something that was once life becomes a sport and so they impose rules so the athletes can have longer careers.

I respect the technique and know it will work under the right circumstance. But, in a bjj no gi class wouldnt that face pressure into the chin be considered dickish then lean to your coach smashing the shit out of you for pissing him off?

Billy Robinson is underrated! If he had charisma, there would be no other!

Thanks for sharing. Had no idea who Billy Robinson was before you posted this video series. Great stuff!

The knowledge is obviously great, but even more, it's a real pleasure to learn from him.

1:06 great move

you are blessed to have Billy Robinson

Billy trained in the European snake pit with Billy Riley for eight years. That's where he honed his catch wrestling skills

This video is underrated. 🤩✨ Pity it's so short.

One of the greatest European professional wrestlers of all time

Great always happy to learn from you coach....

I really enjoy your videos. Good tech, and you guys seemed laid back. Much respect guys!

Absolutely brilliant. Brilliant. I would even incorporate spinning to see if the opponent follows properly. If not you have a perfect opportunity to throw the opponent the opposite way of the spin and take the back or as coach said drop down and take the leg!

A lot of knowledge a legend Billy Robinson

Excellent teaching!

Legend RIP Billy a son of Ashton, Manchester England

beautiful stuff

in brazil in my training of jiu jitsu i used this tecniques from máster billy

Now that's what I call respect.He may be an old man but the young guy you can tell has great respect.You can see it in his body language.Gotta love the yes sir he gives him.Good on ya

love the comments supporting Coach Robinson. He is one of a kind.

In 1979, a new pro wrestling publication hit newsstands and magazine racks across the nation. It was Pro Wrestling Illustrated. When the first issue went to press, Billy Robinson was ranked at #5 in the now defunct American Wrestling Association (AWA).

Amazing. Simply amazing

Bad ass, total bad ass

Just wonderful

Awesome! Grand Respect!

Sad to see Catch As Catch Can dead after this last great man

wow.. never thought of that.. really interesting!!!

Great Video

That's a true grappling master.

That front choke and. Kimura. Are. Awesome like to look more into catch as catch can

I would have love to see Mr Robinson go up against Gracie Jiu-Jitsu , in his heyday he would have tied them all into a pretzel lol

robinson has a ton of good little tips and tricks.

Great. Thnx

what a legend

Dont know anything about catch wrestling but makes sense to me... cool video

RIP Sir

Wow this is awesome hige respect

Catch Wrestling is so awesome. I'm currently a 1 Stripe Blue Belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and if I stay there for the rest of my life I'll be fine. As long as I continue to learn Catch Wrestling from my Coach Mr. Jim Clark. He's one of the best around. I've beaten a 3 Stripe Purple Belt in open No GI Tournaments with the Submissions he's taught me. With Mr. Robinson also putting up videos how can you lose. God Bless 🙏 😇💯 Catch Wrestling For Life😄

Are there any videos of Billy Robinson in his prime? Would love to see it

i miss him... RIP

If he's still teaching that looks like a bit of fun

RIP legend

Pretty similar to what I learned. Though I more use my head in a move classically called "Headbutt".

He looked very big and strong, even while older!!!

Billy Robinson was like a humongous penguin off Batman, a funny villain.

It really surprises me on why Catch is not as popular as BJJ.

Cool!!!

I miss Billy.

rip billy robinson!

Imagine if you will, Billy Robinson and Stu Hart in their 60s, fighting over the last package of bran muffins at the bread store. Who gonna break that shit up without getting themselves stretched and broken.

Ｍｒ．ロビソン!私は中学生の頃から!あなたが初めて国際プロレスのリングに上り!まだスマートで技も身体も切れが良く、ヨーロッパの帝王！と言うキャッチフレーズで登場しました。当時あなたからピンホールを奪うレスラーは居なかった。それとあの人間風車!今は誰でも使うがあなたの全盛期の様な美しいスープレックスは見た事ありませんでした!それから日本人選手の一員になり国際プロレスのエースとして活躍されました!しかし時が過ぎてあなたは帰国されました。手記にロビンソンは必ず帰ってきます!と言葉を残して、そして１年後第２回ＩWＡリーグ戦に帰って来ると伝えられ、その時のゴングと言う雑誌にはお待たせしました!人間風車３月１１日に登場とTV中継を楽しみに待ちましたが。飛行機が遅れて後から合流するとの事でした。そして１年振りにその勇姿を我々にみせてくれました。１年振りです。しかし大分お太りになられてました。しかし最終戦の浅草江東体育会館での決勝戦では剛の小林か柔のロビンソンか?と言うキャッチフレーズで争われましたが？何と最後は小林のバックドロップをロープを蹴って上手くホール勝ちをしました。その後はプロレスの教科書と言われたカールゴッチ戦これは生で観ました。それと凄かったのは!ゴッチさんがモンスターロシモフ後のアンドレザジャイアントを原爆固めしたでしょう！！あれレフリーがカウントしなかったけど完全に決まっていました！未だかってあのアンドレを固めた人は居なかったですね?それから新日に登場してアントニオ猪木さんとまぁ汗握る激闘!その前にストロング小林を大阪であっと言う間にワンハンドバックブリカーで仕留め!猪木さんにもピンホールは許さずドロー!あの時Mr.ロビンソンは１番強かった時期では無いですか?後は全日に登場されますが、それは止めときます!Mr.ロビンソンあなたは中学生の私にとってはヒーローで大好きなグッドレスラーでした!ホントに強かった有り難うございました!御冥福を心からお祈りします！

The lost art of Catch Wrestling. Judo Gene Le Bell was a student of Karl Gotch who trained with Robinson out of the Snake Pit in Wigan.

The great master knows how to hurt people . R.I.P

Look how big he is here, imagine him in his prime! 😳 Jesus 😂
