Submission Fighter Inside T-shirt

Ah, the age-old question that has confounded philosophers, martial artists, and armchair fighters for centuries: is there a submission fighter lurking within every BJJ player?

Well, my friend, let me tell you, it’s like asking if there’s a ninja hiding inside every convenience store clerk. Sure, it’s possible, but not exactly likely.

BJJ is a complex and nuanced martial art that requires physical prowess, mental fortitude, strategic thinking, and patience. While some may be born with a natural aptitude for the sport, others may need to work at it tirelessly to achieve even a modicum of success.

That being said, a certain thrill comes with locking in a tight armbar or sinking in a deep rear-naked choke. And for some, that thrill can become downright addictive. These folks live for the tap, dream of sweeps and submissions, and eat, sleep, and breathe BJJ.

So while not every BJJ player may be a submission fighter at heart, there are certainly those who have found they’re calling on the mats. They are the ones who will stop at nothing to get that tap, who will sacrifice their own comfort and safety in pursuit of the perfect submission.
