Why SC does not encourage "ground fight"? It's "1 gain and 8 loses" trade off.
1 gain: You have ground skill.
8 loses: You won't train
1. counter for throw.
2. combo for throw.
3. remain balance after throw.
4. resistence for throw.
5. run down ability for throw.
6. perfect over head throw.
7. single leg balance throw.
8. remain mobility after throw.
After you have learned "pull guard" and "jump guard", you won't have desire to learn any more throws. Is that what you want for the future of the throwing art?
If you try to ask any BJJ instructor how to train "run down ability", you will understand what I'm talking about here.
