I think some people are misunderstanding what I am trying to say. I'm not just going to try to lock people up and do throws.. while yes, brazilian jui-jitsu is by far more tactical than olympic, what I am saying is that if I find myself in a life or death situation, I will slam a person into the concrete, thus removing them from the situation. I will not rely entirely on grappling, but use what I have learned to my advantage, I weight 245lbs, where more bigger guys do not know how to use thier weight, I do. It all depends on the situation. Most guys who act tough in a group are cowards alone, I believe in most situations, if you were to be outnumbered and fighting alone, if you cause serious damage to one of the guys, most likely his friends will back off, because they know slightly what you're capable of.
If I was fighting just one person, I'd have no problem with taking that person to the ground and keeping them there. Group fight is a different story, but there are too many variables, as the way anyone would react would be dependant on how much thier life is in danger..
