But that isn't true. Haven't you ever seen the film 'The Crippled Masters'? Have you never heard of Nick the BJJ legend that used to train with Billy Rush? He had no legs and tapped blackbelts all the time.

Here's a random story about him tapping Joe Riggs. 3 times. And Joe Riggs has excellent grappling.
