While it is hard to get the KO, it's not as hard to ground and pound your way to a decision by simply avoiding submissions.
These days a submission win at the high levels of MMA is getting rarer and rarer. Which kinda sucks for guys like me that love the beauty of jiujitsu but it was the inevitable conclusion for the sport.
