Well, let, let's start with that lower body obsession then, because the, the leg lock meta was honestly the most dominant offensive trend we saw across the entire card.
Oh, by far.
You nailed it.
I mean, Adel Faourino, she really set the tone immediately against Carol Brunasco.
That match was incredible.
First round finish, and she did it by just bypassing the traditional hierarchy of grappling positions entirely.
Yeah, she didn't even try to play the, the normal game.
No.
She didn't engage the hands.
She didn't try to pass the side control.
She just threw a massive Imanari roll directly into the legs and l- uh, locked up this brutal belly down straight ankle lock.
What's fascinating here is, uh, mechanically what Faourino did is brilliant.
Yeah.
Because it forces a complete systemic failure of the opponent's posture.
How...
So, like, what's failing exactly?
Well, in traditional jujitsu you build frames, right?
Right.
With your arms and your shins to protect your torso.
Right, keep them away from you.
Exactly, but- The modern leg locker targets the foundational pillars of the opponent's stance before those frames can even be established.
Oh, I see.
Yeah.
So when you hit an MMARoll like that, you are literally dropping your center of gravity below their defensive sight line.
Wow, below the sight line.
