When a Left wing mutual says they're just making jokes, but the 'joke' is denial of The Holocaust, I can't be mutual with them anymore. It doesn't matter if it's to troll a Zionist. Doing shit like that emboldens them as lying supremacists.

I have the unpopular opinion of all sports should have a gender neutral option / league. But then I grew up with open weight limited rules MMA, so... As long as all parties consent and there's no coercion, why not?

Alright... So a couple of origins. Bearing in mind Old English was formatively a Germanic language from the invading Saxon, Angle & Jute tribes, and later the Danish & Norwegian 'vikings', the word 'Pine' (not pronounced like the tree) translates as 'To Torture' or 'To Torment'. #wrestling

A cryptic clue: 'Wrestle' is an antonym of 'Struggle'. 'Agony' originates with Agon, an Ancient Greek hotbed of wrestling.

Nobody really needs to know this in the modern day, but can anyone tell me why a pin is called a 'pin' in #wrestling? (I know the answer, just a Lil Pop Quiz question for you)

wtf is a manosphere

Timely & Timeless

Rest In Peace to this amazing coach. He coached one of America's greatest college wrestlers Carl Sanderson who in turn not not became an Olympic Gold medalist, but himself become one of the Great American coaches for Penn State. RIP Bobby Douglas.

Harlem Hellfighters might be the most badass name for an armed forces fighting regiment I've ever seen.

Info, DisInfo, and Discourse online is often overwhelming. So I just want to touch base and ask - How are you doing?

Frank Crozier with the Lonsdale Belt (for #wrestling), after winning the Middleweight tournament at the Alhambra Theater, February 09th 1909. This accomplishment made him the first Black World catch wrestling champion in history. #CatchWrestling #BlackHistoryMonth

Millions of lives lost through a truly evil industrialised genocide. European Jews, Roma & Sinti, Poles, Soviet POWs, Jehovahs Witnesses, conscientious objectors, Free Masons, LGBTQ people and people with disabilities. Never forget. Never again. For everyone.

1934 - Olympic Wrestler Anders Larsson has a friendly sparring exhibition with Boxer Roy Marteny to see which sport comes out on top. You can see Larsson use joint locks and throws long since banned in Freestyle #wrestling, such as the Double Wrist Lock and Reverse Leg Nelsons. #catchwrestling

If MAGA is referencing this map as to why they think the USA needs Greenland, at least they're admitting the world is round...

Analysis of the Minneapolis ICE shooting from a retired FBI firearms instructor. "Not only a bad shooting, but a bad policy".

I'm going to take a short break from social media, because I'm in a privileged position to disconnect. I will never forget those who don't have such a luxury (to disconnect from what's happening to them and around them)

There's some online who definitely would have sucked off the British Redcoats who shot Americans protesting for Independence.

Forgive my ignorance, but isn't the threat of tyranny at home - the threat of the security of a free state by these tyrannical forces - the reason why there's the U. S. Second Ammendment to the Bill of Rights for the public to form an armed militia to fight said tyranny?

Woah 😲 this is to regrow cartilage. Imagine if it could be modified and developed to more quickly repair partially torn ligaments, tendons and bone fractures too.

LOL - I wonder how much of this is just... Wrestling technique 🙃

Ultracrepidarian: a person who expresses opinions on matters outside the scope of their knowledge or expertise.

I honestly don't get how we can all understand it's reasonable to condemn violent white supremacists that invoke christianity, and it's reasonable to condemn violent religious supremacists that invoke Islam, but people lose their f**king minds when you condemn Israeli Zionists.

Why the Russian Leg Sweep is dumb... But it didn't used to be. #wrestling

Darryl Gholar transformed Brazilian Top Team with his wrestling coaching A sad day. RIP.

Seeing an out-of-competition bjj podcast / interview where everyone is dressed in a Gi is so absurd. I don't think I've ever seen the wrestling equivalent with everyone in a singlet.

Fuck... Just heard about the mass shooting at Bondi Beach, Sydney Australia. 💔

It's not a perfect environment. But the pro wrestling and fighting world seems to be in the best place it's ever been for some people to publicly come out and live their truth.

Shayna Baszler has just promoted Iyo Sky from white belt to blue belt in jiu jitsu.

Utter Filth #wrestling

Sakuraba using leg kicks to set up his low single

Fuck cancer

'Americana' (iykyk). In 1978, Anderson coached 2 national teams in a Sambo tournament in Brazil. Rolls Gracie sought him out to coach him and his brothers in wrestling and alternative submissions. Rest In Peace to a pivotal legend in Grappling.

The 'Short Achilles' isn't new. I might be able to find earlier video of what Erik Paulson calls the Figure Four Achilles from earlier decades and other martial artists, but this example sprang to mind. #CatchWrestling #LegLocks

if you see this in your DMs, report the account immediately. do not engage, do not reply. block them, too. spread the word.

Byrony Tyrell - the #MMA fighter Daisy Ridley is acting as - is also a Snake Pit Wigan national and world tournament Catch Wrestling champion.

Classic Catch from coach Miyato.

Reverse Crossface has been around for a long time. Lou Thesz liked to use it with his STF. Carnie wrestler Dick Cardinal used it and even Billy Robinson mentioned he preferred it over the Guillotine (Twister). There's a neck crank with a slight change to the 'nice' version shown in this video.

Jiu Jitsu Brown Belt and Catch Wrestler Richard Sargent shows how to set up a Fujiwara arm lock from a Power Half (Nelson).

Before it became known as the Fujiwara Armbar in Japan in the 1980s (after Yoshiaki Fujiwara's notable use as a finisher), it was simply known as an "Arm Lever" in the Lancashire #CatchWrestling and British Pro Wrestling of the 1940s. Also known as a waki-gatame in #Judo.

I'm whiter than The Night King, and I know the informal use of Aunt and Unc.

All eyepokes in #MMA should be determined intentional when you can form a fist to punch someone.

Eye pokers in MMA need their fingers broken.

RIP Drew Struzan. What an icon.
