Aw man I don't get the snake in the grass pic :(

Conor McGregor has spent about 15 minutes of every TUF episode calling Faber a bitch for not recognizing that TJ is a snake in the grass and will one day leave Team Alpha Male because he has no loyalty.

This is real funny because he was doing this after he demolished Mendes and then TJ left Faber like very soon after filming completed.

She was the one who yelled at people about using the ice baths when you didnt train and looked like absolute garbage against anyone who wasn't low tier on the show.

God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him. Who will wipe this blood off us? What festivals of atonement, what sacred games shall we need to invent?

I've never trained submission grappling ever, but isn't a twister just a "pain" position and it's hard to really gently caress something up? Obviously, if you're in pain your body is saying "get the gently caress out of this situation," but I remember people lol'ing at Garcia getting tapped with it because of the clock/him not being in real "danger."

Absolutely not, it's a spine crank.

"Pain" subs are things like a can opener that in theory could hurt someone but can be easily escaped (to a worse position though). I think. Nobody's doing like headlock tap outs.

I'm not gonna say there aren't /any/ "pain positions" because I'm sure somewhere some Japanese Jiujitsu guy is teaching newbies a chop-down choke that operates on confused beginners tapping out from discomfort, but in general if a submission has a name it will genuinely gently caress you up if it's taken too far/too long. Some can be taken much further than people often do in training, and some are more difficult to get right than others, but they're all gonna snap something or put somebody out.

The most common things I hear the "it's just a pain move" stuff about are straight footlocks and bicep slicers and both of those will absolutely gently caress you right up if the person applying it actually knows what they're doing.

The 'pain' is from a shearing/twisting force on your spine, and the 'lol just endure it' tough guy attitude is contradicted by Magana being in traction in the hospital from not tapping to said minor pain.

@angelamagana I admire anyone who doesn't tap out to a twister! People should never tap out to it, it's a pain inducer not a real lock!

If you don't tap to a choke in practice or an actual bout so you can prove a point about how tough and badass you are, I think that's pretty dumb but unless they're holding it too long or doing it repeatedly in a short amount of time you're probably not going to really hurt anything or inhibit your career in any way. If you refuse to tap to any sort of lock you are an absolute moron, and that elevates to an SSJ3 super Kamehameha fuckwit if you refuse to tap to a submission that targets your loving neck and spine because Jesus Christ.

It's hard for me to square the fact that this is close to true, but at the same time reebok appears to be outsourcing these to some sort of experimental sports apparel design artificial intelligence.
