UFC’s Dana White had trained Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu back in the day – and he appears to be fully aware of just how efficient it can be…
Especially for women that train.
In a recent conversation with Lex Fridman, White emphasized that one of the biggest advantages of Jiu-Jitsu is that it allows women to subdue the potential attackers with ease and speed:
The biggest selling point for Jiu-Jitsu for women is that no matter how big or how small, a woman can put a guy to sleep in three and a half seconds.
Furthermore, White is more impressed with no-gi than gi Jiu-Jitsu (we know, surprise surprise):
In my opinion, and all the Jiu-Jitsu fu*king people are going to go crazy over this…
But in my opinion, no-gi is way better than gi.
He even reflected on his own time spent on the mats:
I remember thinking, holy sh*t… I can’t believe that I’m 28 years old and this is the first time I’m experiencing this.
Such an eye-opening, mind-blowing experience.
The most humbling thing you can do as a man.You realize, holy sh*t, all that sh*t talking I’ve been doing about me being a badass – you realize you’re not.
