Ha! Wasnt' that Frank Cucci's Vale Tudo?? That gym looks like the one my cousin fought in up there KO'ing his opponent in 1R with a right cross ... the guy low kicked and landed forward right into the cross. I also met Fernando Salvador at that event then and he is a BJJ black belt today, here in North Carolina.
Was like a flashback seeing those old school mma gloves with the "red cross" on the wrist...they were $29.99 i think...got a pair for my brithday in '97. Good times!
Love the speed. Talk about getting off the X. Almost feel sorry for the other bloke, he didn't know what he was getting into. You can see why they went to the cage. You almost went out of the ring under the ropes a couple times. Nicely done.
a jiu jitsu chant after he won using a catch wrestling move!!!!!!! hmmmm........thats bout as bad ass when vitor would knock a guy out using boxing, then all the brazialians would scream jiu jitsu. crazy
yeh thats quite a silly thing to say. Nobody yelled ju jitsu when vitor won with boxing ever. I dont think brazilians would ever even chant jui jitsu lol. A leg lock is a leg lock believe it or not several people can think of the same way to twist a leg so it hurts its not like one person thought of it and then after that nobody else can
The difference between your line of thinking and a BJJ black belt's is that he can apply it in any positon he finds himself in w/o Thinking of when or how to apply it. Sure anybody can do a leglock WWE style. That's not to say that it's an effecive one that'll end the fight.
what are you talking about? I was saying to the other guy that diff styles can have the same technique without anybody copying anybody... I wasnt talking about any kind of application of the move
ROFLMFAO "I don't think would ever chant jiu-jitsu lol" are you SERIOUS???!?!!!! ROFLMMFAO!!! Watch some old UFCs and Vale Tudo matches. Especially MARS or WCC, Extreme Fighting, etc. They used to chant, "Jiu-Jitsu" ALL the time when one of their guys won!!
LOL Sorry, I know you're probably new to MMA, but that statement is just too DAMN FUNNY!!!!!! LMAO
lol no no im not new to MMA. But i did only watch the ones that were accissible to me. And ive never heard that haha it sounds embarassing. Silly me was thinking of now not the past. Would they still do it now? and im right with nobody chanting it for vitor im sure lol
Ahhh no worries, man! It's all good. If you ever do get the chance, those were some seriously good fights. Lots of "Style vs Style" but good none-the-less. As far as Vitor, I believe they *did* chant Jiu-Jitsu in his first couple of tournaments in UFC, but I am not sure. It's been so long since I saw his old heavyweight fights, but would be nice to see them again. It is a shame he backed away from his raw speed and power that he had from his boxing skills. Keep training and enjoy the vids
Its hard to find them now without knowing the specifics like whick fight you're looking for. Vitor frustrates me now. He has kinda the same thing as tito developed. If he doesnt absolutely dominate in the first round he just deflates lol . Peace dude
Yeah, they have the John Hess fight here, and prolly the Randy Couture fight, or at least highlights from comps, on here. THe good ones were his steam rolling of Tra Teligman, Scott Ferrozo, or even when he was the first one to hand Tank a TKO loss. Yeah, I would agree with those. lol THey have both deviated from made them great, I just hope they get back on track soon. Looking forward to seeing Tito fight again (some day)
LOL still funny to think that somehow, legs locks, strikes, throws, etc are NOT a part of Jiu-jitsu!!! LOL And I am NOT REFERRING TO STRAIGHT BJJ!!! I am talking about Jiu-Jitsu, the ancient art started in 10, 000 BC which is were almost all arts developed from. (And not in Japan, but actually historians figure it started in Egypt/Africa) It is ALL MARTIAL ARTS to me! ;-)
BTW, they would chant "Jiu-Jitsu" because that was their MAIN style, and hence.. the chants!
Roy Harris learned them from Nick Baturin, sambo guy, Kesting got his from Paulson.
Catchwrestling is where many modern leglocks originated from, if you read sambo manuals from 1930's you see that they mention Catchwrestling as a source for the new system, called SAMBO.
That impression of Royce was better than Royce could do himself! lol :) Mad props to one of the best coaches in the world! Sweet heel hook! This is vintage, I loved the jiu-jitsu chant at the end, totally awesome!
Lloyd - that was some FAST shots, my man!!!

yay for a great effort at passing guard....and then decisively attaining victory with such an un-stoppable heel hook!!!
It was his takedowns, though, that were truly impeccable...

Dude, catch wrestling doesn't have the monopoly on leglocks. BJJers use them all the time. Ex- Roy Harris, Stephen Kesting, plenty of others.
Besides, catch wrestling is like the cake. It's a lie.
