    Why Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Sucks (for the Other Person) “ Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu sucks! ” I gasped as I heard this coming from my own student, as I turned around seeing the red dissipate from his face. I knew he was on the business end of a tight choke. “Ahh—you mean it sucks to be on the receiving end!” I said. His voice, with 100% certainty, and enthusiastically exclaimed, “Absolutely.” I knew what he meant! I’ve been on the receiving end numerous times myself.
