Ricardo Arona vs Saulo Ribeiro ADCC 2001 Quartes-Finals

[TeeteringBulb]

0:57 looks like the easiest thing in the world. Beautiful!

[FraldinhoBJJ]

Seriously, Ricardo Arona is a BEEEEEAST. look how he handles a 6 time world champion and two time ADCC champion in ribeiro. saulo is insanely masterful. i saw this fight a long time ago then studied up on saulo and now that i see this arona impresses me soooooo much more. fucking crazy dude.

[fuckingkimura]

@FraldinhoBJJ I know!! I think Arona can do much more!! its really the greatest shame that he lost to Rampage, nobody expected that and certainly not Arona, that fight destroyed his soul. He lost the will to compete, but he could have done SO MUCH MORE in MMA! He is the only person to beat Fedor and Wandy in their prime, and when Jon Jones beat Shogun, the first person that comes up on my mind is Arona, I really think Arona can beat Jones with his absolutely beastly BJJ

[FedorByRape]

@fuckingkimura didn't beat fedor buddy

[fuckingkimura]

@FedorByRape lmao I am the biggest Fedor fan boy, but I know who won the fight, Fedor does too.

[PaperNun]

This is why I don't do Gi. There clinching is terrible!! This is No-Gi you have to learn how to clinch and hold. Great match though.

[Godsmasher22]

what was Saulo's record at ADCC, did he ever win one?

[titoyteeure]

@Godsmasher22 yeah he won one even two

TOP FIGHTERS but arona's a monster!!

[Rentehninja123]

I loled at Saulo's picture at the beginning. Looking off to the side like whateve's but this Ricardo Arona is beast. Starting to pay a lot more attention to his matches. The dude has crazy balance and always seems to get to just the right position before the other guy does. His control and strength are spot on. Damn!

[Blackshinobi352]

This is weird because the way he rolls and teaches now is totally different it's like watching someone else

[Nathanmp3]

Saulo eh o Cão! lutando

mas o arona eh o Tigre!!

[smitaay]

Saulo is the man, but Ricardo is just a monster. I had seen this before, and remember that Saulo turtled up a lot. I just watched it, again, to see what he did after he had turtled. I think it's impressive that he could survive against Ricardo with the size difference. They are both awesome.

arona e passador!! bota qualquer guarda ae que ele passa.vlw aronaaa

[jiujitsurs]

@jer1901 O Arona não chegou a passar a guarda do Saulo. O Saulo perdeu, mas pela diferença de peso e idade, era mais do que obrigação do Arona de vencer esta luta.

[TriangleJiuJitsu]

arona's top control is ridulous

[yurimisaki06]

porra tomou um amasso do arona..........kkkkkkmas eh isso ae mesmo lutõ!

[Sentinel3007]

A rare loss for Saulo
