    I suffer BADLY with insomnia, so I’ll check out these supplements...as long as they’re not exorbitant! 🤷‍♂️😝 PS. It’s a shame that you didn’t start out as an MMA specialist...I’m certain you could’ve dominated at FW or even LW. Definitely too late now though...even with your amazing skillset. Stellar BJJ and grappling are essential nowadays. 🙏

Also didn't help that I have a bad back and hip so any rigorous wrestling was always a pain. It was definitely fun and learning jujitsu was interesting. I stuck to kickboxing cause that's what I like best and found the most enjoyment.

When your opponent clinched or fighting at clinch position, I think it's better to get the underhook to defend that takedown. The reason you were able to get back from the ground, I believe it's also because of the underhook you had. congrats on the victory!

    What a privilege to see how an elite athlete learns something new. Pretty awesome to watch. You landed a few front kicks there! I've always wondered why teeps and muay thai clinches or knees weren't really adapted to mma. With the latter I think a lower body clinch with smaller gloves can limit your options but I just think teeps are underrated in general.

    The position at 6:19 If you got your arm under theirs around their backside with your other arm on theirs like that you could launch the opponent by positioning your hips perpendicular to theirs while bending at the knees and pulling their hips in tight just above yours, then driving off the ground with your legs while popping your hips forward a little bit. So from the position in that clip you just would pull their hips in completely to you while getting a little farther around so you're perpendicular and dropping at the knees a bit and pulling them tight to you with your arms then blastoff. You can toss them over your back to the side this way (not directly over you or they can land on you). The trick is to not try to use your back muscles but to use the legs and hips instead while just using upper body to hold them tight when their hips are perpendicular to yours. The way I learned this was grab the arm above the elbow and other hand on their hip same position u had there. Was one of my favorite throws when I did judo.

It's not about seeing you grappling - I'd just *love* to see you how you'd change your striking style with the smaller gloves and the threat of takedowns. (I would expect you to come to a more open guard, and utilize more stuff like the Clayton's gap...but of course, that's purely my speculation).
