Johnny and "Pops" Billy Wicks were my Hybrid Shootwrestling/Catch/MMA coaches from 99-06 in North Carolina. They taught a different, very hard, grinding and dangerous style of submission and they will be missed. RIP Johnny. Thanks for sharing the video!
Johnny huskey was an outstanding mma coach. 10 years ago when I was 18 he was a part of black eye promotions. I had went and sparred, did some work at their gym. Then they hosted an mma fight team tryouts in like 2011. A buddy and I tried out. Long story short. I got a phone call saying We made the "team". the caliber of training we received from him after that was remarkable. Although I couldn't continue to train shortly after due to personal reasons. Itll always be a fond memory for me. I learned he passed away. Rip coach huskey. My respects to you sir. Rest easy
I went to his seminar at Ian Bromleys old club, John put me in a head scissor and put my throat in to the back of head. Still waiting for it to come back. Good times
Johnny was my best friend in elementary school and I had the pleasure of training with him (and Patrick) at the old Hybrid Academy in West Asheville. He was the best all around fighter I ever saw. More importantly, he was a great person. Miss you buddy.
@@BJJandBS brain aneurysm on his back porch. Johnny was mastee Splinter to me since i was young. That one hurt. This video is from the same time i fought under him in Asheville. Brings back so many good memories.
@@dannymitchellmma yes Wicks I do know of, that makes sense! Sad to hear about his passing, seemed young and healthy. At least he has left his mark and inspiration for people to see here for years to come..
Why in the fuck was he going so fast and aggressive when demonstrating how to do the finish of the technique? I don't think he gave that guy adequate time to tap at all. He's obviously knowledgeable on how to do the technique but damn...slow down and take into consideration that you have someone's safety in your hands.
they look promising but how do you set up that ball & chain position? Most guys in BJJ tucker their legs under their butt when they turtle, I'm curious as to how I'd be able to hook the leg when they turtle
I hope you will someday upload some videos on how to deal with a person who puts the mount on you what is catch wrestling answer? Catch wrestling is utterly a fascinating science

So he passed away? That’s so sad. Sorry to hear that.

This man taught me my first arm bar back in 1999. Rest easy Johnny!
He taught me a cool armbar in 2011, me and my bro trained with him and he referred to us as the "diaz brothers" we took that as a high compliment 💯

I trained with them Briefly in 1999 in Woodfin, good dudes.
Johnny was master Splinter to me. Miss that guy. Can only imagine the stories of johnny and patrick you have!
It's up to us to keep these techniques alive. There's only like a few American Hook Wrestling guys left, same for the Wigan men
Dam that double wrist lock is violent. I see the difference from the Kimura in bjj.
That was a pleasure to watch danny

"Lets pair up and hurt people" going to use that one.
Thank you for the video. Great stuff!
Great video! Gonna clean up a lot of my submissions. Love the tweaks and great details.
Very rich and instructional video! Thanks for sharing! 🙏🏻✌🏻👏🏻
Wow! I love this video. I have been studying catch for a few. I love how nice his stuff is. Amazing
Many thanks for posting. This is brilliant.
Wow!!! The man was a fountain of knowledge
This guy is the truth
Nice one Danny. Love me some catch 👍🏿
Wow, thank you for this. Absolutely amazing.
This is great.
Awesome, thank you!
RIP Johnny and Ian.
How did he die?
@@BJJandBS Dunno about Johnny but Ian took his own life I know that much!
@@rippersubmissionwrestling2704 geeze
@@BJJandBS I know, but that's not a big secret you can Google "Ian Bromley death" and it will give you his autopsy report too!

Amazing moves
What is his background/ who did he learn from? Very smooth and has the leverage down to a science.
I believe he learnt from a guy called Billy Wicks who was a catch wrestling champion you can look up! Johnny is sadly no longer with us

Those 3 moves at 24:22 (especially the Achilles Lock) are nasty

Blanket ride with a knee up the,rear end
Does hé train gi?
Never heard of this guy. Who did he get his catch form?
He was coached by Billy Wicks
why does everything look so rough in catch? I guess that's the style
for real, he didn't need to be so rough with those leg locks thats dangerous
Did he make any instructionals?
Is there a catchwrestler in the philippines?
Not that I know of, but you can learn alot from youtube if you can find a good partner to train with!
I went to this seminar in Manchester, Johnny was the best grappler I ever met. Do you have more content?
I dont have anything else from Johnny but i have lots of other catch stuff to upload!
I hope you will someday upload some videos on how to deal with a person who puts the mount on you
what is catch wrestling answer?
Catch wrestling is utterly a fascinating science
I thought in catch wrestling that back on the mat means game over. Why would you work for a sub in this position
Depends who's rules you're playing with.
I believe it was mainly for a grappling/MMA audience, not a catch wrestling one
As técnicas são boas, porém o cara ensina machucando o parceiro
Im pretty sure if you practice the techniques tje way he demonstrates them youll have a short grappling career
That guys arm is gonna need a lot of pain meds
Don’t tap - it’s not a move…
