grappling with bigger opponents
i am 6"1, 195 and pretty well built. i role 2 or 3 times a week with a friend who is of similar size and weight. we are both pretty similar in experience and it nearly always ends with 1 tap each. we are not amazing but no what we are doing. last week we asked a friend to join us. now he is a 250 pound rugby player, a bit fat, but powerfully built, who knows a few subs but not much experiece.
oh my god was it hard work, i was able to tap him with a triangle but if i hadnt got it on when i did i am pretty sure i would have gone on to lose as i was incredibly tired from controlling him. he had told me he was very powerful but i didnt belive him, until i we clinched up and he threw me around like i was a baby. anyway, jus wondering if anyone has any advice on grappling larger opponents? thanks
