@ironsurvival70113 years agoSpecial rules don’t show who’s better or what style is better. The rules should simply be, takedowns legal, submissions legal, maybe a time limit but definitely no stalling or passivity. Wrestling and Jiu Jitsu are arts that fall under the umbrella of grappling. The reason Jiu Jitsu is better as a combat art is because the end goal is submission which ends the fight. In a life and death combative situation you definitely want more than a hold or a pin in your arsenal. Choking a person unconscious or breaking a limb is pretty effective ...2

@walkingcorpse12243 years agoWrestling is a form of grappling. Jiu Jitsu is now sort of a jack of all trades grappling Martial Art, however, what makes arts such as Sambo, Catch As Catch Can and Judo stand out are the rulings. Personally I think Sambo is the best grappling art, followed by Jiu Jitsu and then Catch As Catch Can, otherwise everything else from Wrestling to Judo to Bokh is just something to add to ur repitoire in the arts of Sambo, Catch and Jits, that's what makes grappling so interesting, but yes these grappling arts' rulings are where the differences and the players lie. ...4

I don't see how it's that complicated to come up with a good ruleset. ...

@sbag112 years agoI guess to each his own, but for me, the ultimate ruleset was NHB. In terms of competition, for me, the whole point to whatever style you practice -- wrestling, jiu-jitsu, karate, boxing, muay thai, etc. -- is to be maximally effective in a one-on-one, empty-hand, who's-the-man fight to the finish (incapacitation of opponent) with referee interference, no rounds, and no time limits. So, whatever style, set of techniques, approach -- whatever you want to call it -- that is the best in true NHB, is the best, period. ...

@anthonysiu60103 years agoyou can't please both either the wrestler learns more submissions and defense. by not allowing guard pulling (or sitting down is negative points) or leglocks you're just dilluting the sport. This might sound crazy but if you make takedowns score more (3? Pins 4 points) than the position scores (pass guard, mount and back takes) and heres the crazy part... submissions could score (5?) with a limit to 3 per match then you automatically win. ...
