Vinny Magalhaes Survives Armbar From Fabricio Werdum At Abu Dhabi Combat Club Submission Wrestling Championship 2011.
Vinny’s MMA fight from a few nights ago.
Yowzas!♠
who ended up winning?
somebody drinks their Elations

Not sure how he survived that. Are talking shoulder damage or elbow damage or is Vinny just super flexible?
It’s funny that Werdum only started adjusting the arm under his armpit until then end. Even black belts get lost in the game. One of my black belt instructors couldn’t finish a keylock/americana on me cause I’m flexible, but somehow he didn’t know to turn the elbow into the rib cage(where no flexibility can save you). For such a basic move it is interesting that somehow they forgot or never learned some simple techniques.
WOW !!!!!
The under armor shirt probably helped stop him from twisting it into the right position. Those things slide pretty easily.
So who won?
arms made out of rubber
lol wtf? vinnys arm was cranked hard good escape and good win
Holy crap man, I thought i saw it hyper-extend. That was madness!
Holy crap is this full force legit competition, like they’re really tryna break each others limbs?
That looked painful… but he survived it.
First time I see something like that!!
wow…
@shocktime
Yes, this is one of the most legitimate grappling competitions in the world. This is where names get made for the grappling community.
werdum lost. bruno can u pls put the whole match on there
Bruno: The complete vid is on their site. There is not a free copy.
Vinny ended up winning btw.
@shocktime, That’s BJJ dude. If you don’t tap, you get cranked until you do or the limb breaks. It really is as cut and dry as that.
wish the ufc was like that,if you dont tap you get year s*** broken..
yah had he tucked the elbow under his armpit and worked the elbow it would have been over…
Its interesting that people keep talking about the shoulder-its the elbow that matters in an armbar-that’s where the break would happen. When I spar with BBJ guys IF the get an Armbar my FIRST move is to rotate and torque my own arm to prevent hyper extension of the elbow. I’m kind of shocked sometimes that some of these guys don’t get the basics on HOW you would actually cause the break…and honestly guys, NO you do NOT want people just breaking joints. This is sports, not war. That’s childish…
@simontheninja
The UFC IS like that. ex: Al-Hassan vs. Cantwell
it looked pretty bad, but not as bad as you would think. Dan Hardy used the same technique to survive the armbar GSP put him on. GracieAcademy broke down the technique used to survive, great breakdown, highly recommended.
The reason he didn’t adjust immediately and placed it under his armpit was because Vinny was rotating his entire torso. He was waiting for Werdum to adjust so he could spring his arm away from Werdum. Still crazy not to tap when you have a heavyweight cranking on your arm.
