In comments on another video I believe it was Cabelo's wife who said that he doesn't claim the title of mestre for himself because Joao Grande never graduated him to it. But even so, he certainly deserves the full respect that you'd give to a great mestre.
there's two ways to become a mestre in capoeira angola, a graduation of a mestre, and the recognize of the people and the comunity... i think that was the way that cabelo get his title, because in brasil he's called as mestre

Did Mestre Joao Grande graduate Cabelo to mestre? I heard him say that he has never personally graduated a student to the rank of mestre...
