“BJJ and Muay Thai Will Get You Killed in the Streets!” Really? We've all heard the argument that combat sports don't work in real-life situations. But what does someone who's actually experienced combat have to say about it? In this episode of Social Gelo with Angelo, I sit down with retired U.S. Marine Corps Major, Purple Heart recipient, and BJJ black belt Michael Cragholm to discuss his military journey, how Brazilian jiu-jitsu and Muay Thai influenced his career, and what martial arts can really teach us about violence. Are combat sports just games with rules, or are critics missing the bigger picture? Watch the full conversation and decide for yourself!
