Submission Wrestling: Karol vs. Cristian

Submission wrestling rules.

We return to the dojo in Turin, Italy, for a GRPL Submission Wrestling Sparring Session between two young judokas: Karol and Cristian. This choke-only no-gi grappling match gives both fighters the opportunity to test their pressure, positional control, escape timing, and submission awareness under the unique GRPL ruleset. Unlike a standard judo match, this session removes the gi and shifts the focus toward choke-only submission wrestling. Takedowns and positional dominance still matter, but only when they create real submission danger. Every scramble, back-take, guard exchange, and neck exposure becomes part of a larger battle for control.
