Georges St-Pierre Breaks Down MMA Scenes From Movies | GQ Sports

That particular sequence happened to me in one of my fights against Dan Ardy, the guy went for an amber and his opponent was able to escape and got back on top, so what we saw was pretty real. Hello, I'm Georges. saint-

and this is the first stop of the warrior really nice the life of colin strong and not backing down the objective in brazilian jiu-jitsu is to control our opponent without hurting him, however, what is good about it if or the opponent refuses to comply while we? If we have control over him, we can have the power to hurt him very badly.

We can hurt him in Brazil Jitsu with a submission, like breaking a limb or strangling him, so he can pass out, so it is a very gentle martial art, but. it can also be very violent and jujitsu means the art of softness, a bit like bruce lee used to say, be like water, my friend likes to go with the flow and that's the mentality of jiu jitsu, you listen to the corner shout, shoot, shoot when they say shoot, they mean it's a move when you have the fighter coming down attacking his opponent's leg to take him down.

This is called a two-leg takedown. This is a technique that is mainly used in wrestling. Actually, it's one of my favorites. Techniques that I use a lot during my career. The idea is that if you want to take down your opponent, it's a bit like when you want to take down a tree, you cut it from below and it falls, it's the same thing, so when you want to take down your opponent you attack the lower part of his body you attack the leg because you need the leg to rise so you attack the legs and it's easy to make him fall he goes for a submission we call kimura the kimura is a lock that is made to break a person's rotator cuff if the person doesn't hit obviously they rotate their hips the reason the corner yells at him use his hips is because they want him to use his entire body not just his arm to run the camera because all the power of the body comes from the hips, you don't want to use just your arm, you want to use everything your body to create the pressure, it's actually a great tip hips up turn your hands turn your hands inwards in a real mma fight your trainer or coach can shout tips so you listen to your trainer and also listen to your trainer opponent so you know what kind of advice your opponent is getting Also, the advantage for me is that I speak French and when I compete in the UFC I speak a little bit of Portuguese and Spanish too, so I was always able to understand the advice of my opponents' coaches, but they could not. to understand the advice they gave me, so it wasn't an advantage for me now we see him holding the lock for a long time, normally that won't happen if executed well, it takes about a second. for the person to tap otherwise their arm will be broken, but of course I guess for the purpose of the movie they stretch it out a bit, the key to applying a submission technique is isolating your opponent's limb to that your opponent is immobilized and cannot move and you have total control over his limb.

If the technique is well executed, you will be able to break someone's limb. However, it already happened to me in a fight that I had someone in a kimura but I couldn't immobilize and I immobilized well. to my opponent to make the position loose, he was able to move in a way that took more, more range of motion, but in the position we have seen now it is very well executed, in fact, the choreography is perfect, so it would be impossible that his opponent would try to come out normally in wrestling and mixed martial arts. There is an unwritten rule among wrestlers that if they receive an amber, they will usually leave a split second for their opponent to tap and they won't.

Immediately try to break it on the spot. I mean, not everyone respects that rule, but I do because we are all competitors and we just want to win. We don't want our opponent to get injured and put him out of competition for any longer. that maybe over a year or at some point, we'll skip to later in the movie, so now that we have our hero on the bottom in a position called guard in mixed martial art, it doesn't mean that if you're in the bottom that Sometimes you are losing the fight, yes you can lose the fight because if you are on guard that means you have your legs around your opponent, your opponent on top has gravity in his favor, we can throw a punch , however, from below. in that position you have the chance to do a lot of submissions and that's what we're about to see now, he went to a jujigatami from the bottom, then switched to what we call omoplata and used the homoplata to come back. in the top position, oh my gosh, that's a deep answer.

There he has the seat belt. When they say seat belt it means wrapping your arm around your opponent's waist to immobilize them and hold them better, so that when you apply pressure, your opponent can't. Go with the pressure and have a greater range of motion. You want to make sure you immobilize the body before applying a submission. His opponent refused to tap, so he broke his shoulder normally in a fight, when a limb

breaks

, the referee will do it. stop the fight for the fighter's safety so the other guy is normally declared the winner, but that's his fault, unfortunately, that's the hard truth of combat sport, ladies and gentlemen, if they continue fighting after the bell rings or after the referee stops the fight. normally you will automatically be disqualified you will not be disqualified if you dislocate someone's shoulder if your opponent refused to tap because it's his fault.

You know in my last fight there was a guy getting choked and you refused to tap, so what happened is what happened. and the referee stopped the fight and I won the fight, but if he had tapped and I had kept the lock and knocked him out now, they would probably take away the victory and also ban me. With many other types of problems, I don't think there is any movie, especially about combat

sports

, that is one hundred percent accurate, they always need to make it more spectacular and extravagant, but it's actually a good movie, I've seen it many times. times and I'm a big fan of Tom Rd and yeah, it's a pretty accurate great movie.

The next chapter of John Wick two. I'm a big fan of Canary and I think Kenny Riven is fantastic in his movie and I don't know him personally. but I'm sure he mixes martial arts or jiu jitsu because when I see him doing the movement it tells me that he has experience in it, not everyone can perform those movements, what happened there is called flying jujigatami, it's a flight. bar is a very spectacular movement with this movement the boy voluntarily launched himself into the air and fell to the bottom positioning himself with the amber if it is well executed it is a technique that you can break your opponent's arm and the umbar there are different types of amber it is when you use your whole body as a lever and you press on a joint, it immobilizes your body so you can't move and with your hand you apply pressure that goes beyond the range of motion you can perform, however, do it on concrete.

It's a very risky move because when you do this, if you miss, your head will hit the ground and you could be knocked out, but it's actually a real move and some guys have done it in a real competition in

movies

like John Wicks. We often see guys fighting each other to the death, but they have a gun. They should just use their gun before using all this fighting stuff. There are two components to the fight. There is the striking component and the grappling component. Grappling is most synonymous with Brazilian wrestling. Jiu jitsu is a form of martial art that begins standing, but is specialized and controls the way you control your opponent, whether it is by pinning them using an arm, bars, leg locks, submissions or chokes, you can also control them or you can hurt him. he is very bad if you want it is a beautiful choreography it is very spectacular it is fun to watch and what I like about martial arts is that it is something very global, you can compete in terms of fighting in terms of philosophy but also in terms of the choreography and that was a very beautiful artistic piece of choreography, i really loved it, i love john wick

movies

, john wick movies, it's amazing, the next flash point, this is a troll, so he blocked a kick, he swept the leg and threw his opponent to the ground. that that's a real takedown, but then after going, he did what we call side control, he's in side control, that means he's like a crucifix on top of his opponent and he tried to knee his opponent and head, but his opponent blocked him with his arm and by blocking that helped him establish a jujigatami, which is a number, that particular sequence was something that really resembled what happened during one of my fights against Dan Hardy, the guy went for a shadow and his opponent was able to escape and came. back up so what we saw was pretty it was pretty real the way you escaped is pretty much the way you would escape a number there are many ways to escape a number and there are many ways to make a um a number a triangle It's a submission all that you choke someone, but the problem is the angle in which you put your legs around the head and arm, sometimes that allows your opponent to breathe a little more, but when it's well executed, it takes your opponent between three and five seconds. to pass out and his opponent picks him up and uh, it's one of the ways you can escape, you pick up the opponent and slam him to the ground hoping he hits his head on the concrete or the canvas and knocks himself out, but what? that?

What happened is he basically threw it off the board and fell to the ground with it. This is so far the most realistic film we have made today. I love him. He is a true martial artist. Sometimes you see a movie in which the boys don't. I don't have any experience in martial arts, but now you see the guy is a professional, you can see the way he moves, he is a real martial artist, he has been doing this for a long time, the next red belt, take him to court , take him to court. well I knocked him down, the fight is over, that's it, the fight is over, finish it here, it's over when I train in Brazilian jiu jitsu I train hard but I train intelligently and in a safe environment it is a sport that can be very dangerous if not It is done well in training.

Don't hit each other without gloves because we would get hurt if we get hurt, maybe we can't compete and win money, so when you are training, if you allow the hit, you have gloves and to protect yourself. you yourself have a helmet when you train in wrestling you don't really hit at the same time and if you hit at the same time you have gloves so now we see that they train but they train without protection so it would be very risky to do that, I'm not saying it would never be has done, but most professionals don't do it that way, so you have to train hard, it's true, because the fight can be difficult, but training smart is much more important.

Good good punch, okay, breathe, breathe, so when you get caught in a submission position, you have to respect your boundary, put your ego out of the dojo and be ready to tap, and if you're not ready to tap, you could hurt yourself . and you won't have a long career in this, your journey will be very short, you know, the escape, breathing is always an escape, passing out, it's okay in martial art, especially Brazilian jiu jitsu, before you become an expert, become In a good way, you need to learn how. lose it is impossible to be good from the beginning because you have to acquire the knowledge first, so there is no one who shows up in class and is good, is the best from the beginning, it doesn't work. something like that you can have, you can have a certain aptitude that will make you better than others, but you have to grow to go through that grinding process, so you tap when you get caught and you know your limb is about to break, so you have to accept. defeated to improve gain knowledge and improve you know the escape you know the escape show me show me show me the escape yes, there is always an escape when you get caught in a certain situation, no matter how bad it is uh, however, it's like a funnel, the more The deeper you become trapped in that particular submission, the harder it is to escape.

It's like when you're drowning, if you drown a lot, it's harder for you to get back to the top. Same thing in submission, so if they cut your number and it's at the beginning of the number setup, it's easier to escape than if you wait until the end and your limb is fully extended, which is almost impossible because it's too late. So it is always possible to escape from any situation, but you have to do it at the beginning before you get completely trapped, so to speak. Thank you very much for watching these clips. These are all films that really influence me and inspire me in my career. a mixed martial artist I hope you liked it
