nog was amazing at no-gi jiu jitsu, but there are higher-level no-gi jiu jitsu guys, and fabricio is definitely one of them
either way, he's still a legend and i'd love to be trained by him. he showed the world that the era of jiu jitsu is eternal and some of the best ground game in mma at the time.
@TruNikkaz Actually I think Demian Maia is the best at it, but yeah I would say Royce.. but he just used it on people that had no experience with it at all. Roger Gracie, he and Rickson are probably the best Gracies. But yeah Rodrigo Nogueira, Fabricio Werdum, Roger Gracie and Demian Maia.
yes. maia is so amazing. he's another example of the high level jiu jitsu i was talking about
and royce was better than i think lots give him credit for because he did fight lots of grapplers in the ufc and lots of them were huge, but i wouldn't consider him even close to rickson or roger's levels
also, marcelo garcia and ronaldo souza are two more extreme jiu jitsu guys. i wouldn't say one is the best at those levels, but maia is top for sure.
and what i meant about nog showing that jiu jitsu is eternal is right around the time that he showed up, the black belts in jiu jitsu more dominantly trained in gi bjj. and it caused a lot of the jiu jitsu guys to lack dominance that we saw from royce and the like. nogueira was a pioneer of the no-gi world, and showed that wrestling and ground and pound aren't cures for jiu jitsu, and that what the gracies have been saying all this time, is still true.
@TruNikkaz Oh yeah! Can't go wrong with Jason Becker, Jeff Loomis, or Marty Friedman ;) haha, I been playing 9 years. I do Bjj and kickboxing and started Mma now. Awesome I am more into Mma and all that though, do 4 days a week for 4 hours, so school then mma at night, only got 3 days for guitar :(
haha, im the opposite. i do mma training for fun, mostly no-gi bjj. but dont plan on getting in the cage anytime soon.
i compete in grappling tournies, but that's about it and i go all the time. but im mostly a guitarist and if i broke my hands training my ass off for a real fight or duking it out in the cage, i'd be depressed as hell until it came back. regardless, guitar + mma training are def the 2 best hobbies around
@TruNikkaz Yeah I want to hopefully have a future in mma or something. Oh yeah same I don't use a gi at all, much better for getting in the cage. I got my first non-pro Mma fight like end of the year, or start of next so looking forward and training hard! haha, yeah I get guitar lesson once a week so it isnt bad, I would like maybe 2 times a week though. I might be doing 5 nights a week soon starting this k... something karate full contact apart from no punches to the head.
Simply put, he will always be one of the best. But like Wanderlei Silva he is able to remain a contender but sadly will never get back on top. But ya never know... Whatever, he hung at the top of Pride in its prime, thats all an MMA fighter could ever have hoped for.
