I RANKED EVERY GUARD in Jiu Jitsu

I ranked 28 different guards in Jiu-Jitsu from F Tier to SS Tier based on real effectiveness at the highest levels of grappling.

In this video I break down the best guards in Jiu Jitsu, the most overrated guards, and the positions that still dominate modern gi and no-gi competition. ⚠️ Some of these rankings may make you mad.
