yeah, I've been doing them myself for a couple years, but that wasn't why I posted this.

I've never seen anyone kneeride an opponent in a World Championship match quite like this before :new_silly

You don't understand. I'm trying to be a dick here. Just go with it.

I heard at my gym from a guy who was there that the guy "went for his knee", which could just as well mean heel hook for obvious reasons. So the guy clowned him. Then again I'm at home now so I should probably just watch the damn thing.

Figured there had to be something...damn, just goes to show that not all black belts are created equal...or even on the same planet...or even the same damn species.

That was impressive, really fucking impressive.

He doesn't suck; Galvao is just that good.

His open guard pass has enlightened my soul.

I like the 'sitting on your little brother mount' right after it :tshirt:

this is what you show people who think BJJ is all about laying on each other and not much else. when there is a big difference in skill and someone is getting pwned it can be great to watch.
