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.

this is the most like a mike tyson's punch out guy i have ever seen anyone look

Frank Crozier c. 1911. The first Black World Champion in Wrestling / Catch Wrestling, winning the middleweight title at the Alhambra tournament, London in 1909. #BlackHistoryMonth

Leg lock battle from a Catch match in 1928.

I only want to see Snap Mares done this way, honestly.

An illustration of a Sumo leg sweep from the 1920s.

For those who observe, I hope you have a meaningful feast this Yom Kippur.

In 2019 where stats are available for both countries, 1,700 children under the age of 17 died by firearm in the USA. In that same year in the UK, the number was 15. But a dumb fuck American Catch coach shares this ridiculous post to Instagram stories without a second thought.

Granby roll opportunity with a scramble Half follow up. Could also lead to a DWL finish.

Coach J'den Cox not a fan of Will Ospreay it seems...

It's the 21st in Japan, so that means it's the 32nd anniversary of the very first Pancrase event. I always thought this belt was really cool.

Funky Gator roll after a low swing single 👀 Certainly cool looking. Style over substance?

Oh damn. RIP Ricky Hatton. He was only 46. 🥊

I'm learning more about America's right-wing edgelord meme sects than I ever willingly wanted to.

Requesting those closest to Rob Martyr, please check on him.

I'm sad two students have just been shot at Evergreen High School in Colorado. I'm sad there will be less coverage for them, because they weren't famous apologists for gun vuolence.

In the 1960s CK would have been the voice arguing against MLK's want for civil liberties, and would probably take it further by arguing why segregation is good, and the economy suffered because slavery ended. On the side he'd call for the rolling back of women's suffrage, too.

I think if your 'difference of opinion' is spending years promoting if not outright inciting cruelty and malice towards already down-trodden, disenfranchised and vulnerable groups of people, it shouldn't be shocking when that malice is returned in kind to a lethal degree.

I think it's a bad idea if prosecuting lawyers want to aim for 'aggravated assault with a deadly weapon' charges against Raja Jackson (implying the deadly weapon is his fists because he trains MMA). There's a danger the court throws it out imo.

@catchwrestling.bsky.social How's my man Biffo looking out there?

Someone has tried gaining access to this account and other Catch accounts I have . Fortunately I use authenticator apps for most things. Stay vigilant.

The England flag before Richard I changed it was much cooler. At least the Britons / Welsh flag stayed cool.
