While the video mentions that Grimm tend to die in captivity, it doesn't say they die as soon as you put them in a cage. Considering Merlot also captured Grimm for his experiments, I think its likely Grimm can last for a limited amount of time in captivity (admittingly, we don't know how long) before they die. The idea they just instantly go 'puff' as soon as they're locked up is kinda weird. For all we know, the Boarbatusk was captured that same day and then released an hour or two later to fight Weiss. While I doubt Grimm can last for weeks in captivity, I don't think its a big strech to suggest they can survive a couple of hours.

Its kinda like how some creatures, such as great white sharks, cannot be held in captivity for extended amounts of time. They'll die off, but they don't die as soon as they're enclosed.
