No one stands back and puts up their guard like in the flicks...everyone runs in, head down, swinging for the fences. Knowing how to grab those underhooks and hip toss them into side control then roll them into a D'arce choke serioulsy puts and end to all their shiat and any ideas a crowd has of joining in.
Yea I took BJJ for a couple years when I was into that type of thing, really complimented my wrestling skills, still remember a lot and am glad I took it.
