Under that logic why not allow punching?
Slamming is part of grappling.

Think of a BJJ competition like an arm wrestling match -- you can't start kicking the person you're arm wrestling, that would make it something other than an arm wrestling match.
Slamming is part of grappling.

BJJ is a specific martial art -- which is why the rules for the competition are specific to the art.
A martial art of grappling, of which slamming is apart of.
quote:
In BJJ gyms the teaching of more full combat and how it relates to jiu jitsu is covered all the time.
Which is why when you compete, you should try to emulate what you can encounter in the real world while trying to remain loyal to the style.
Your argument is just paper thin, is all.
I get it, I told you I've been grappling a long time, I know jiujitsu and I understand the dangers of it (you ignored all of the technicalities that I addressed).
I get it, they have specific rules, I'm saying these rules aren't logical and dudes who get dropped on their heads are already retarded if they don't even know how to defend against it.

Slamming is generally not allowed in tournaments. You can take down,
The entire point of BJJ is technique and skill, not force.
It's the gentle art. Do you think that includes slamming someone on their head?
The point of competition is to display skill, not force.
What you're saying is ludicrous. Honestly. My ego totally detached -- what you're saying is absurd and an indication that you don't know anything about jiu jitsu on a cultural and theoretical level, even if you've dabbled in some arm locks.
Your repeated bragging about your experience in grappling is a good indication of your ego in overdrive.
Your entire vibe is off for BJJ. You are a force guy and you don't like a limitation of force. That was a nice way of saying you're a douchebag.
The rules aren't logical for real fights? Yeah. That's the point. It's a specific skill that's being acquired (and really, a skill within the skill of grappling). That's why mixed martial art athletes train in bjj, boxing, wrestling, kickbocking ect and then walk into octagons to incorporate all their learned skills.
