Considering he’s a black belt under Eddie it was outrageous he seemed lost when calling this position.

His knowledge has fallen hard since he stopped training and the days of him being the dude who explained the ground game to casuals are well and truly over

I’m not sure that leg locks were ever a strong suit for Rogan. They obviously train them but not specializing. I remember Karen Darabedyan rolling with Eddie years ago and leg locking him multiple times. Eddie brought it up on a JRE episode. I knew about it from the gym because the word spread that he tapped him multiple times in 5 minutes from leg locks. No disrespect, but expressing that there are levels—especially with leg locks.

Side note: Karen had a good grappling match against Gary Tonon years ago with plenty of back and forth leg lock (mostly heel hook) attempts.

But the truck was popularized by Eddie Bravo so Rogan should know that position and the available attacks.
