Let’s say the Gracie’s train a chimp BJJ to a blue belt level. Chimp has learned to not foul in anyway and only do BJJ.. He get a bowl full of bananas if he wins so he’s highly motivated to win. Can be Gi or no Gi.
Chimps are reportedly 1.5 - 3x stronger on average than a human, have 5x the average grip strength and are wild fucking animals. FWIW John Danahee said a chimpanzee would “absolutely” destroy Gordon Ryan 1000 times out of 1000.
I don’t care how strong you are if you’re 140 and have short legs you get swept and pinned and you ain’t choking me if you never learned how to choke someone.
Yeah but I think John was talking specifically about just a fight to the death. A chimp that is only operating within the rules of a grappling sport is a much different animal.
