Classical jiu-jitsu practitioners lack the ability to take opponents down or maintain top position, and they are not dangerous enough from bottom position to finish fights.

So, no one talks about the fact that I can hold people down, but the number one issue with classical jiu-jitsu guys is that they never spend any time holding people down. So, when they, first of all, they can't take them down, and if they do get on top, the guy just stands up. Yeah, yeah, and um, also, no striking at all. So, going into it with that, going into MMA with no ability to take a guy down, no real experience in holding guys down, and then poor finisher and poor finish. So, even if you, even if you jump guard, for example, and you're in bottom, because you never spent your time actually working on like submission finishing mechanics, right? This guy can't even finish him from bottom position. Guys who win jiu-jitsu tournaments that don't even attempt a submission, yeah, they just get mount. So, if you're on top, which is unlikely because you can't take the guy down, it's it's unlikely you're gonna hold top position. And even if you are in bottom position, you're not dangerous enough to actually finish the guy.
