The guard is not a dominant position.

nuff sed

Good thing I was sitting down for that one!

but it sure beats anything else you can do from your back.
In a fight I mean, ya know? I mean, me and missus do, oh you know, stuff, being married and all and, oh never mind. Let’s just say it’s good to know.

What bollox

The guard is as dominant a position as the mount IF you know how to use it. I have used it as such in REAL combat and finished the fight from there with strikes and in another case with a shoulder lock. Just how dominant do you want?
