| Although I do agree that all the possibilities that you have presented would work, I think you are misinterpreting what a bite would do. Since, as you say, you are not accustomed to striking while grappling in class, it is not your usual mind set in a fight. (How to train is how you fight.) So, someone taking a good chomp on your arm is likely to have one of two effects:
1. You are surprised. This may cause you to grip tighter and turn a lock into a break (good) or this may distract you enough to give your opponent the chance to escape. Now, whether or not he actually escapes, that is up to him.
2. The adrenaline is pumping and you don't notice. While you continue to wrestle with the person he is biting down on you causing more and more damage. Human bites the break the skin are particularly prone to infection and complication, so this would mean a strong possibility of a hospital visit.
I think, basically, what is apparent here is that there are so many possibilities and outcomes during a fight that it is impossible to prepare for everything. It is equally impossible to gauge how a fight will go down on a forum by saying "I would do this..." Just look at the possibilities laid out here. Everything from one guy escaping and no one getting seriously hurt to both of you ending up in the hospital, which is pretty much the range of a getting into a fight to begin with.
Although, if you are saying that BJJ techniques deal with biting better than the original poster thinks, then you point is well made. |
