Best Guard in MMA?
 
Who has the best guard in MMA? Not just UFC, but all of MMA.


I know this has been done before in the main section, but I'm bored and figured it merits another run. And I hope there will be less retarded comments since this is the Grappling section.


I left out a few options, like Pe De Pano since his guard is legendary in Jiu-Jitsu competition but less than stellar in MMA.


If there is someone I missed, just post it and I will add them to the poll.

I went with Aoki have you seen his standing rubber guard LMAO

You've put Aoki on there twice... which just makes sense as he has without a doubt the best guard in MMA.

Second place I'd say Big Nog.

Even in straight BJJ, Jacare isn't known for his guard. Even less so in MMA. He's got a much more top-oriented game. Which is part of the reason he has transitioned so successfully thus-far. He has good takedowns, and good top control, with submissions to match.

His takedowns are sick he has some really really good Judo. I can't wait for Marcelo to come in, BTW does anyone know wen his first fight is?
Speaking of which WTF happened to Roger?

Marcelo's first MMA fight is tomorrow night for K-1.


Last I heard, Roger beat Ron Waterman in Bodog and participated in this year's Abu Dhabi.
