What are your favourite Combat Sports/ Martial Arts-related bullshit excuses that you hear in sparring?
Mine is
>roll with someone
>have him in a precarious position
>fag starts "teaching" how to finish the submission aka prattling.
It is sly and the inexperienced practitioner may see it as benevolence. I hate this shit but I always laugh when some cunt is trying to pull that off. Ace-tier excuse.

I'm faceblind. Is that Dana White or Jon Logan?
>>
>>132380
>My techniques are too deadly to use, so I can't use them in a fight.
I actually knew a guy who talked like this. He even made the infamous claim that his hands were registered at the police station as deadly weapons. Why are some people like this?
>>
>You must be a wrestler.
When you crush some weak BJJ faggot who has a higher belt.
>>
>>132511
Send me his location. I'd like to fight him
>>
>>132390
Yes. It is.
>>
>>132380
I mean i do it sometimes but only in cases where my sparring partner is trying some submission totally wrong. i've had countless spars where the dude cranks a choke or lock without feeling anything, in that case its better to let the other guy know.
>>
>>132380
>I have a bad [body part]

Then don’t fucking spar? Maybe go back to resting?
>>
>>133037
>Bro, I just trained with X
Similar vibe.
>>
>>132380
>ITT: Newfags who think you’re supposed to “win” sparring and can’t handle getting direction from more experienced fighters when they’re doing shit completely wrong
>>
>>133157
>*gets caught in a perfectly fine RNC*
>b-bro let me t-teach you. y-you are doing it wrong
>CCHHRRRRPFFTTPFFTTCHRRRRRTSSS
>l-listen please.
>>
>>133157
I agree with you if I haven’t finished the sub on a higher belt after 10-15 seconds of attempting it, but otherwise it’s definitely an excuse
>>
>>133280
>things that didn’t happen
If you executed it perfectly then your partner wouldn’t be able to explain how to do it.
>>133337
>it’s an excuse
Excuse for what? You don’t “win” sparring.
>>
>>132380
>rolling with a dude slightly bigger than me
>get him in baseball choke from bottom half-guard and bait them into moving to side control
>he moves into side control and I turn away applying the choke
>doesn't tap
>hold it a bit
>still doesn't tap
>put the choke on harder
>doesn't tap
>put it on more
>starts making the gurgling noises and bodyweight sags down onto me
>immediately let go and ask if he's ok, he was out for a sec
>he says "Nah I was fine, just the humidity is all"
>okay, whatever, continue rolling
>>
>>134284
i lol'd

if im dominating someone in a sub and they refuse to tap i just drop it and honk them on the nose
>>
>>132380
I specifically wait until I've fully escaped and gotten to a dominate position to give finishing deets.
>>
>>133348
You sound like a guy that is constantly getting his ass handed him during sparring sessions
>>
>>132380
higher belts allow OP to get into dominant position so he can actually learn some subs and he dosen't even realize it
>>
>>132380
>Teaching from bottom is an excuse.
Bullshit.
Just because you got the dude down doesn't mean you've got the submission.
Either you're worse at submissions than grappling, or they're harder to submit then take down.
Sometimes, they're better at defending. Sometimes, some submissions just don't work on people, because they don't move right or react right.
>T. BJJ white belt who's lanky, flexible, high pain threshold, who's spent a full five minutes on his back on multiple occasions, while a black belt or brown belt tries to submit me.

Now a real excuse is flipping between not taking it seriously, and going super hard.
Going light, playing around, slap-boxing, barely engaging, and when the other person gets their measure and begins to get control, stepping off, looking away, and acting disinterested in continuing, so your sparring partner can't pursue without looking like an opportunistic dick.
The round doesn't stop just because you got tired, or you're no longer winning. Put your hands up, stand and fight.

>>133037
They're probably referring to a long term chronic injury anon. You have to train around those.
