why do you say that? he had a real good guard in both tito fights. Tito was never able to get a full mount. his guard is just as good as any gracie's would be if not better. like i said. bjj isn't the only ground art

The guy is a dick in real life. I've met him, and he is just not a friendly guy... I wont miss him.

A good guard means you don't get turned into a fucking hamburger. Whatever I say you will ignore because for some reason you worship Ken, so go ahead then.
