Arm Drag Series: CACC Catch As Catch Can



This is how to do a proper arm drag, not the sport version but the old school arm drag that propels the opponent forward to not get his elbow dislocated, locks are hooks that have failed, the old art of hooking (breaking limbs) instead of submissions.

Wade Schalles vs Lee Kemp 1976




I have used some of his pins to get a break at no gi BJJ training, I am getting older and with all the injuries I have accumulated in my life with hard martial arts training I have lost a lot of stamina and strength, my fingers are even thinner from my nerve damage in my elbow as I noticed that my old ring fits fingers that I could not use before, over 2 years of not being able to train strength as I used to and a serious new elbow joint injury, I have been severely limited with what I can do. 

As pins gives no points in MMA, BJJ or submission wrestling, I have been able to exploit the fact that many BJJ practitioners don’t see it coming and have absolutely no idea how to escape or prevent it, I can take a break and regain my stamina while my opponents spends a lot of energy figuring a way to escape while I spend almost no energy.

 I always try to have a heavy top game and use Wade Schalles Clock and Kill theory, I can only recommend watching old instructional videos with him, many people think I am 10-15 kg heavier as I use the positions and rides to compress my opponent’s lungs and make his breathing as hard as possible.

Billy Robinson - Sakuraba is one of my boys and a real CACC wrestler




Having trained BJJ and was amazed when I saw the beginning of the UFC, I was sure that BJJ was the ultimate grappling system.

Kazushi Sakuraba is one of my favourite MMA fighters a real CACC wrestler and the first one to win against all the Gracie’s and their best fighters and made it look like a walk in the park.

Watching DVD’s with Billy Robinson has completely changed my view on grappling, this is not a gentle art as Judo, Judo is an effective grappling system that formed the base for BJJ, but  Catch-as-Catch-Can Wrestling is brutal and IMO my favourite grappling style a true NHB style.
