[MMAgrrl]

How can you possibly dislike this video? Do you hate all things that are awesome?

[taozen1]

Still the best Cobrinha highlight on youtube!

[americanadc]

[TheVindicatedOne]

i could watch that sweep at 2:42 all day

[rassan10]

o cara é foda!!

[neto7266]

what is the name of the song that plays in this video?

[chinoayala1]

1:10 nice from double under to double leg. i think the detail here is to control both wrists so your opponent cant move to your back while you roll.. i think ima try it tomorrow

[KJITS365]

This is a great highlight reel, with a great song. Nice display of technique. I posted it to my blog.

[EvolutionaryLoophole]

Best hair in BJJ.

[jkdbjjconnection]

Isn't cobrinha 30 this year? So will he be fighting in the men's or master's at the 11 worlds?

[GHOSTntheMACHINE]

[LuizRavenxd]

[carlos0259774]

Ruben got style when he rolls. He's a monster !

[poopalover]

energetic young chappy

[grantbjj]

@poopalover

He could compete in masters if he wanted to! Scary right?

[zaggers77]

Wait at 3:51 what the hell was he choking the guy with, it looked like he started using the belt.

[Morgothhhh]

@zaggers77 no its the guys collar...

[imnotbad9]

meh, hes average. 

If he was that good hed be fighting for real.

[tigerdo]

Excelent HL. Well done.

[lommerse24]

The transition at 3:20 is so so nasty. I wanna be like Cobrinha

[PatrickWJ]

does anyone know the name of the choke at 4:00?

[carlsongracieteam]

@PatrickWJ It is called a bow and arrow choke and it is locked in about as deep as you can get it. very nasty choke and very basic.

[PatrickWJ]

@carlsongracieteam thank you!

[carlos0259774]

@PatrickWJ its a bow and arrow choke. or japanese call okuri eri jime

[WALLY1234556]

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!

[Zttbm]

One of my favorite songs and one of my favorite BJJ players. Awesome.

[dsfsefec]

name of the artist and song ?

[b0ris360]

@dsfsefec The song is called 'Reign'. The artist is UNKLE & Ian Brown.

[JustAManism]

Circular movement (LOTS of movement), speed, and FLOW is what I learn from this guy; give and take; using your opponent's energy....

Yup, this guy is using the classical martial arts precepts....

Have Marcello and this guy rolled??

[pollolocovaldes]

whats the name of the choke at 1:57? or what was he trying to do? i wanna learn this one

[NeoOsiris19]

Just a real prodigy, its crazy to think he started fairly late at 21 and turned into one of the greatest p4p grapplers in the world within 5 years.

[amsogXO]

Technically esquisite!!!

DeBrazil!!

[MadMarSkee]

jaw dropping sweep at 4:11

[ummbro69]

[marceloecintia2]

[login76]

1:41 and 3:16

[chokeyou2]

very technical and athletic guy....nic work!

[1azone]

hehe,tenho sorte de fazer jiu-jitsu ai,eu adoro a cobra venenosa

[fishyjj08]

The scramble at 1:41 is ridiculous

[robertirez]

o cobrinha está em cima da cadeia alimentar e é um dos blackbelts muito melhores jiu jitsu viu que ele é realmente um atleta de classe mundial

[SirOlafson]

da cadeia alimentar rsrsrsrs

ele é cobrinha não é o leão... :D

[robertirez]

haha ele alimenta-se da cadeia alimentar haha

[bearboy01]

I got a chance to go to one his seminars after a tournament. Hes such a cool guy. Me and my buddy didnt pay for the no gi part but he let us just hop in and train. Great athlete super cool guy.

[desdavis]

i can only hope my jiu jitsu looks like that one day!!

[getthetapjj]

Those Brabo set-ups were sickkkkk, Cobrinha has a beautiful game

[GenitalGiant]

Great Jiu Jitsu.......

[lutador1001]

cobrinha é o cara !!

[lutador1001]

cobrinha é o melhor lutador de jiu jitsu da atualidade!!!

[mrmanimal1]

3:23

[ZombieQuestion]

His opponent at 3:03 looked like he was wearing some sort of fruit-based helmet

[Sal1the1great]

lol like a cantalope helm lol

[taozen1]

That is Marcio Feitosa. He tore his ear lobe and it bleeding. So he bandaged his head so that it would not bleed, so that he could continue in the tournamment.

[fcs77]

hes name is marcio feitosa,so badass as cobrinha...

[mdibble15]

our former student and friend is taking his blue belt test under cobrinha in a few weeks...good luck, steve!

[taozen1]

The man has beautiful jiu-jitsu.

[sharkerinho]

Cobrinha, aguenta mais uns 5 anos lutando que eu ainda vou ter a honra de lutar com vc no mundial!!! osssss

[william629]

Good stuff.

[ErikF123]

Phenomenal teacher and fighter!! it was a pleasure to visit Atlanta Alliance in April!! Thanks Team Alliance!!

[Earthfirst1]

Beautiful. 0:54

[doogers1]

Best bjj highlight ever.

[triangulo6]

I'm so glad I get to train with him every day. He's an amazing guy and his jiu jitsu is alien like.

[86gumby]

i had the pleasure of grappling with him last year .. wait it wasnt pleasure he made me doubt myself lol

[Alchy21]

that sweep at 3:20 is sooo fuckin sick... wtf is that like a inverted ankle pick upside down WTF?

[TheBJJbeast]

pure poetry brings me peace to watch this

[BJJALLDAYNIG]

rubens charles is a rapist

and I mean that in the best way possible

[Pr3dat3ur]

How could be a rapist in the best way ?! :D

[ronhudsonjr]

he keeps his rape strictly on the mats!!

[Dillingerescplan]

imagine a BJJ black belt being a rapist

you are going no where lol

[sjl36]

haha jeeez i hate bjj black belt rapists! theyre a pain in the ass arent they?

[AnOddParadigm]

Cameron Earle?

[desdavis]

fully violates people!!

[robertirez]

@desdavis hahaha thats so true man

[inventiontension]

If there is ever an open match between him and Kron it will be very interesting.

[Narukaflame]

Never thought of this, some grappling tourney like Naga or grapplersquest should make it a superfight, Im sure Cobrinha would win but it would still be fun to see.

[kaperisk]

could happen when Kron starts competing in open weight in the major trnys.

[tkstka]

w00t!

[MorroODoidoO]

luta muito!!

[Pattyg121212]

whats the name of the song

[1hum]

Ídolo brasileiro!

[skellington9226]

check out 1:42 anyone know who hes fighting

[chapmanillust]

that is Bruno Frazzato from the 2006 Mundials semi-final match. Cobrinha gets the submission at the 1:56 mark.

[sagazjiujitsu]

esse rubens é foda!!!!

aprende muito assistindo suas lutas.

sucesso cobrinha.

[bearboy01]

badass highlight ruben is sucha beast.

[chechen2]

great highlight.  love the choice of music =)

[danpats1]

that song is sick, i met him once he's a very quiet but nice guy

[smuphix]

gr8 song, what is it?

[danhawkhall]

Its by UNKLE ft Ian Brown its called REIGN

[littleruggy]

he's so fluent with all of his transitions its crazy!

[chucknorrispranks]

you mean fluid?

[Vazquez71]

well said.. to have that much control and doing those moves on other black belts to awesome to see.... I wish conbrinha competes in Abu Dhabi.. ADCC

[Narukaflame]

he competed in the gi abu dabhi this weekend, he beat Guilherme Mendes but lost to Rafael Mendes actually, it was a crazy stacked event, Rafael Mendes beat both Robson Moura and Cobrinha.

[ttmwc]

This guys spatial orientation is very good. He knows where is going long before he gets you there.

[amsbjj]

That's most well done highlight I've ever seen.

[ph33ric]

his game appears to be gi choke the shit out of them and if they defend at all sweep or pass there guard to the side of the arm there defending with.

[bjjartist]

those sweeps from the 50/50... Amazing doesnt come close. SO GOOD

[Vazquez71]

I haven't seen anyone master master the spider guard, guard, open guard, or de la riva inverted guard, like Cobrinha... well marcelo garcia is ranked up there..hah

[ManicBOC]

agreed saw him at the Lutador open and trained with him a few times when I went down to Atlanta from Alliance Greenville he uses that inverted guard and spider guard and its alwats almost an omaplota

[rocknroll1984]

do you train with alliance in greenville s.c.? i'm moving to greenville in like 2 years and i'm looking for a good school to train at. how do you like it?

[ManicBOC]

yea I train Alliance Greenville SC Its a good school I trained with them for a few years now Rafael Dos santos is Our Jiujitsu coach and Lee Walker is our stand up coach he has worked with Rich franklin a bunch. We got best Jiujitsu in SC I love it there

[rocknroll1984]

nice i train with shaolin right now and i was worried that when i move down there i wouldn't find a good bjj school.

[ManicBOC]

yea we gotta good camp here why you moving here though?

[rocknroll1984]

my girlfriend(soon to be fiance) is going to a phd program at columbia and my mom lives in greenville so we are going to stay with her while she goes to school.

[ManicBOC]

I hear ya man congradulations with ya girl thing but yea man we got the best Jiujitsu in SC hands down

[rocknroll1984]

nice bro can't wait, i'm going down in july or august i'm going to stop by and take a class... i'll hit you up before i do.

[ManicBOC]

Most underated Jiujitsu player in the game today I think Pound for Pound best in the world since Marcelo.

[Omaplata41]

He's underrated?!

[ManicBOC]

Yea still hasnt been invited to Abu Dhabis as of yet im sure he probably has for 2009 but 2 no gi world titles no gi pan am title 3 world titles and 4 pan am titles and always goes into quarter or smei finals of all the absolute Pan am and world titles

[Omaplata41]

That's good to know, thanks for the info, I'm not really up-to-date on the Jui-Jiitsu news.

[greatdanebarca]

love the hl. wats the song

[danhawkhall]

1 word AWESOME!!!

[SOMULEKESARNA]

cobrinha, mt técnica

[thebandtheweight]

2:44 might be the coolest thing I've ever seen.

[edgeinthomas]

i learned that sweep yesterday, it is pretty ridiculous huh?

[thebandtheweight]

Ever seen any vids that demonstrate it? I have the basic premise I think.

[scooch18]

alliance jiu jitsu ftw

[gencrocop]

whats the name of the song?

[nkalipinoy]

love the sweeps

[decypher3]

[Brianwhitemore]

TEAM ALLIANCE!!!!  # 1

[Ralphgracieoc]

Different level he is a freak. Cobrinha vs. BJ Penn please

[Fredson78]

nice highlight. cobrinha is the cats pajamas.

[kaperisk]

cobrinha puts the art in martial arts for sure!

[tiernillo]

Great HL and Awesome fighter Cobrinha The best of the best!

[tohst]

Cobrinha has an insane aptitude for rolling scrambles and unusual grip fighting, amazing to watch. Great vid thanks

[diamantinoneto]

now I am black belt and when I see guys like cobrinha and marcelo garcia, I may see that I have to be tranning all the time. Vida longa a arte suave.

[taozen1]

he has beautiful jiu-jitsu!!!

[spleenbuster]

such a badass. completely underrated.

[goatfury]

Cobrinha vs Wilson Reis in 2007 at the U.S. Grappling Diamond State Games was one of the best no-gi matches I've ever seen.

[Ralphgracieoc]

Freaking Amazing!

[fmoya]

hey what is the song on this video ...does anyone know/??

[chapmanillust]

The song is "Reign" by U.N.K.L.E. - from the Never, Never Land album.

[vincespell]

Fuck what you heard! Give respect where respect is due! Fernando Terere Augusto is and will always be ranked as one of best Jiu-Jitsu competitors ever! That whole Alliance Group from the 2000 Leo Vieira, Rodrigo Comprido Mederios, Fernando Augusto Terere, Leo Leite...these Dogs ruled! Leo over Shaolin, Terere over Nino, Comprido over Margarida, and Leite over Sperry..Terere students are an example of his knowledeg in this sport! Galvao and Ruben Charles are his blackbelts...Alliance is Real!

[lommerse19]

ah crap i didnt mean to give the thumbs down thing. Alliance is #1.

[bjjmage]

To clear this up Terere is not a crazy beggar now. He did an article in Gracie Magazine last year. He is doing fine living with his family. He does not have any plans of competing again.

[judojok]

i doubt that! nobody as good as terere just stops in competing. hahaha. cmon terere! kick some ass again! =p

[RemainsOfTheUndead]

Does he still teach at TT?

[BGDO91]

Now Cobrinha stay in Alliance Team

[chrisbjjreydiego]

everyone from alliance has so much technique

[RemainsOfTheUndead]

Cobrinha was originally from TT jiu-jitsu. Its sad what happened to Fernando Terere! But yeah, Alliance guys are sick!

[judojok]

why? what happened to terere?

[RemainsOfTheUndead]

He kinda went loco dude. Sad story. Apparently he was in an airline and there were some kind of commotion. I think it's due to the stress and his poor english. He started going crazy and was beating up people (or being offensive). Was detained in the States for awhile. Nobody really knows what's his condition now sadly. Some say he's a beggar who lost his mind. I don't know.

I do hope he comes back man. Pity him! Such a good grappler and coach.

[judojok]

and yeah.. Alliance guys are kick ass! =p

[inventiontension]

1:41 - 1:48 Why I love Brazilian Jiu Jitsu more then MMA. That exhange was elegant.

[kaperisk]

check out the terere HL

[pjr151]

agreed that was poetry in motion

[Lucas1988modesto]

Cara vc é foda!!!

[BGDO91]

[preal10]
