A lot of people in the wrestling and jui-jitsu world don't like to hear this...but the secret to winning ground fights has nothing to do with knowing the latest joint locks and manipulations.

Instead, and I know it sounds strange, winning a ground fight is almost entirely dependent upon your fingers...and your teeth.

And, if you do it right, it should never take more than 5 or 10 seconds to win. Even against someone who outweighs you by 300 pounds, and even against someone with a lifetime of ground fighting experience.

How is this possible?

The answer is simple:

Paul Vunak, one of the best (if not THE best) street-fighters in the world -- who also happens to be the guy who trained me and a whole host of Navy SEALS, CIA, FBI and DEA agents -- spent a lot of time figuring out how to win fights against advanced grapplers and ground fighters.

And he knew that trying to learn all the different grappling rolls, moves and techniques would not only take way too much time for the average guy to learn, but were not necessarily the best way to win on the ground anyway.

His solution:

He learned, mastered...and now teaches...the "art" of biting and eye gouging.

Think about it:

Someone has you pinned to the ground, what's your fastest, most efficient option?

Is it:

1.) Trying to apply a complex grappling lock or joint manipulation technique that may or may not work?

or...

2.) Biting the guy's neck or gouging his eyes with your fingers -- which will, in 99% of cases, force a person to instinctively (he almost won't have a choice) jump up and want to put as much distance as possible between you?

I think you will agree the answer is obvious.

And you know what?

This is just one of many examples of why, when it comes to fighting and martial arts, the whole key to winning -- on the ground or standing up -- is simplicity.
