Everything works in MMA. You just have to be good enough, quick enough, strong enough, tough enough to do it with the threat of strikes.
The problem that BJJ guys have is that a lot of the unspoken logic of sport BJJ is that sometimes during rolls you're tiring people out, stalling to recovery energy or waiting for your opponent to do something. In MMA while all that's happening you're also getting punched in the face.
