Dá um joinha quem está rindo junto com quem tá filmando! kkkk

[noformstyle]

Rickson is one of the greates, but Rolls taps Rickson all the time.

The man is like a myth in jiu jitsu and his history. Let's not discuss that. Myths are nice.. Another, and more important, thing is; what's up with the hair. In my book, a myth don't wear a ponytail.

[TheSchnozwanger]

@sidechokebob Not a myth, but a Legend.

[tyrlegend]

Tennsumitsuma LOL. don't you know... When your name is Gracie youve already won

[TENNSUMITSUMA]

@tyrlegend

so why did so many lose to sakuraba

[TENNSUMITSUMA]

so this sparring is part of his supposed 400 straight wins?

fuckin fool. when your own family says the way you count fights is bullshit what defense do you have, or does anyone have for you?

for the fact that ron tip beat you so that's at least 1 loss (and all the ones in brazil before you all came here that the main stream (main stream very important) doesn't know about)

[Ddraig64]

@TENNSUMITSUMA The one loss to Tripp was a result of a throw, not a tap-out submission, decision or any 'loss'. The 400 wins were not sparring, but tournament wins. As a Black Belt, other than the Tripp loss, Rickson has never been defeated or submitted.

[TheSchnozwanger]

@TENNSUMITSUMA Ron Tripp jerkoff.

[TENNSUMITSUMA]

@TheSchnozwanger

yeah and ass wipe?

[TheSchnozwanger]

@TENNSUMITSUMA ron tip LOL

[TENNSUMITSUMA]

@TheSchnozwanger

1 didnt need the caps

2 im willing to bet a trillion dollars that you didnt even chuckle inwarldy much less laugh out loud

[poganla123]

what you people that are saying jiu jitsu has evolved need to realize is that people evolve with jiu jitsu. rickson still teaches and train jiu jitsu which means he is evolving with jiu jitsu. rickson is killing this dudes no-gi and he is going about 30% and i bet there were no no-gi tournaments this early days

[kanguesso]

BJJ is still evolving and has evolved a great deal since those days. That is Rickson rolling with dudes who had completely no idea what BJJ was and this was almost 20 years ago. The game is faster now, more technical and the competition is very, very stiff! That is why i just laugh when Gracie lovers suggest that Rickson is the Greatest BJJ player of all time. In my opinion Marcelo Garcia would whoop that ass! That is simply my opinion.

[poganla123]

@kanguesso looool thats hilarious. the reason why people say rickson is the best is because high level dudes that are multiple time world champions like andre galvao, rafeal mendes, roger gracie, leo viera rolled with him recently.....like couple of years ago and they say he is head and shoulders above them technically. im not saying rickson will beat garcia however, im just saying why people say rickson is god

[kanguesso]

@poganla123 I would imagine they'd say that, after all Rickson is part of a family that introduced BJJ to the rest of the world so there is really no surprise there.

[poganla123]

@kanguesso that could be true, but this is everyone saying it not just a couple

[NicoGF]

Wtf was that sound 1:37 ? :-)

[ceroeck]

how come he always fights these losers with no specific doctrine wearing those silly tights. one problem with the gracies is they choose who to fight very carefully.

[918Anon]

@ceroeck This is only a training session. Stop being bitter

[poganla123]

@ceroeck dude they are rolling not fighting.

[JiuJitsuMind]

Imagine rolling with Ricksonin the infant years that Jiujitsu was here in the states... the game has evovled so much
