Whose ground game is better - Babalu's or Mousasi's?

[padmakara]

Babalu's groundgame is pretty clearly better.

However, mousasi wins via being on a dominance streak. Coo pon dat bwoy!!!

That said it's not exactly easy to armbar the guy, he's shown great armbar defense against Takimoto, Yoon and even Gono before the one that made him tap.

That made me laugh. "He showed good armbar defence before being armbarred."

Babalu is the better grappler. His BJJ is some of the best at LHW. I can see him subbing Mousasi if he doesn't play the stand up game. He's an emotional fighter and it wouldn't turn out well if he was sucked into Mousasi's game plan.

That's not Gono.

I've never seen Babalu use his BJJ well after being rocked or after being in a slugfest. Maybe if he took Mousasi down straight away but i doubt that will happen.

you're obviously very knowledgeable about the ground game but i think you're very biased towards grapplers, you make it seem as it mousasi has no chance on the ground against babalu, at least give him the benefit of the doubt, mousasi has shown to be an always improving fighter and has actually shown great skills on the ground

I'd say Babalu has a better ground game than Mousasi
