i don't know if you actually train or not, but ADCC isn't just the main tournament where you see jacare grappling with garcia. Canada has it's own ADCC tournament. if that wasn't a good enough example. how about pan-am championships? still too high up? fine, the tiger balm tournament they have in north vancouver.
arona forgets basic things in mma that's illegal in no gi grappling. like hooking the opponents leg when someone posture up/stacks up on you in a triangle to prevent being powerbombed.

No slamming allowed. Illegal slamming will be defined as slamming your opponent to escape submissions and/or to pass the guard; or standing from the guard and/or jumping from a standing position to slam your opponent. Slamming will result in an automatic DQ. There are no exceptions to this rule. Takedowns are NOT considered slams, but you must deliver your opponent safely to the mat.

or how about rolles gracie turtling in his fight. it works in submission grappling to prevent being pinned and submitted, but doesn't work very well in mma.
