There are a ton of videos on passing guard, sweeps, and subs, but stand up defense in BJJ is rare. Most competitions start standing and award 2 points for the take down. Additionally, the person controlling the takedown, should end up in the dominant position on the ground. For street defense, the stand up defense is perhaps the most important aspect of survival. If your much bigger and faster mugger (or pissed off ex-drinking buddy) grabs or strikes you, and you cant get them to the ground, your 120 hours of BJJ training is useless. That's why I appreciate this video. Its shows over 20 techniques that work for both street and sport.
