He then takes the fight to the ground, teaching you not only how to best protect against a grappler’s ground and pound game, but also how to turn the tables and put him on the defensive. If you want to be a true fighter, a good offense isn’t enough. You need a good defense. With this video, you’ll not only have that defense, you’ll be armor plated.
