My Favorite Hightlight Reel
It seems like every MMA, BJJ and submission grappling competitor has a highlight video nowadays, and I'm going to share my favorite one with you. The competitor is Masakazu Imanari, who fights in Japan at 145 lbs. If you haven't already seen it, check out the video below or at the following url: www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ldw-TFeZqY
One reason I like Imanari so much is that he is unique. To my knowledge no other MMA fighter is so focussed (fixated?) on leglocks and pursues them to the extent that Imanari does. Styles make fights, and although Imanari isn't always going to win he makes fights veryexciting: I know that I wouldn't be looking away when he steps into a ring...
NOW IT'S YOUR TURN...
While we're on the subject of highlight reels I want to open the floor to your suggestions. If you have a favorite highlight reel of a specific MMA, BJJ or submission grappling competitor please send me an email (stephan@grapplearts.com) with a link to the video. Next week I'll share what was sent in by the readership.
