The Grapplers Perspective
#21 - Owen Jones - People Prefer NoGi Jiu Jitsu Because The Skill Gap Diminishes
Expect to get the everyday perspective on Owen's review of the recent ADCC trails, his reflection on his win in 2023, his frustrations with the recent weigh in rule change, his thoughts on the 66kg elites, ADCC predictions, his thoughts on Gi vs No Gi, how he improves his game so fast, training with @BTeamJiuJitsu and much more...
Owen Jones is the 2023 ADCC European, Middle East & Asian Trials Champion at 66kg, qualifying him for the ADCC World Championships in 2024. He is one of the most exciting up and coming UK grapplers with Super Fight wins on WNO and Polaris; and was the IBJJF No Gi European Champion at a purple belt in 2022.
He is known for his exciting style, his outside passing, sliding into DM's and his favourite position (in BJJ), the Reverse Cowgirl. Check out his instructionals at BJJ Fanatics Instructional - https://bjjfanatics.com/products/outside-the-guard-inside-her-dms-by-owen-jones
