Adapting Brazilian Jiu Jitsu to MMA

I was listening to an older episode of the Fightworks Podcast where they interview Mr Henry Akins, Rickson Gracie Black Belt. Henry is now joint head instructor at DYNAMIX with Antoni Hardonk.

One of the questions that came up was how he adapts Jiu Jitsu to the MMA game. His response was along the lines:

Rickson Gracie's Jiu Jitsu was always intended for fighting. It's very simple and uncomplicated.

On that note, here is a glimpse at how my coach Martyn Cahill adapts Jiu Jitsu to fighting against the cage wall. It's a very short clip but you can see the great heart of the fighters at the LABS - FIGHTING FIT MANCHESTER. If you are looking for the greatest place in Manchester to train alive Jiu Jitsu that works in every arena, FIGHTING FIT is where it's at.
