I've known Magnus for a long time. We used to wrestle every week, at least once or twice. The last video we made was different from our private matches because we had a larger space to train in---much larger than my private mat pit. So we ended up on our feet more than usual, and the space difference made our fights somehow different. The way a wrestling match unfolds is often more influenced by the environment you're in than most might realize. A smaller, confined space will limit the kinds of holds and maneuvering two guys will be able to pull off, while a larger space opens up more possibilities, on and off the mat.

Watch how these two guys really rip into each other during this outdoor submission fight on the grass. I love watching old school Vale Tudo fights--the skill level at the beginning of mixed martial arts was very primal and basic. The sport hadn't yet become regulated and gloves weren't always required for competition and training. This was all happening while I was in college, so I had lots of fights like this in martial arts schools and privately with training buddies or random opponents.
There's something awesome about the way the blonde dude in this match, Tom Glanville, suffers--you can watch this fight HERE at about 18:45 in. |
