Never said that BJJ doesn't teach you to defend strikes, I was talking about submission grappling. There are no strikes to defend, which is what Matt Serra is a world champion at, i.e. "his game".

GSP grounded and pounded a victory by wearing Serra down, he said it himself. The quote just drives the point home even further. He didn't beat Serra at his own game, in fact he says he refused to play Serra's game. What's so hard to understand there?
