tdhumphr Yeah that kind of strength is gnarly.

The way he walk off after that is scary... If you look closer, seemed like he already knew that he would won lool, a truly Master..

@@ancestraljns1747 was thinking the same thing

In all of his fights, his grip strength is apparent. Once he gets attached to you, you cannot get him off.

Shame he didn't have access to an "Origin 🇺🇸 " gi back then lol 😊🥋

Inevitable. Thanos.

Sem dúvidas, um gênio

Roger só ganhou pq o outro perdeu

Every great Athlete had both talent and physical advantage over the others competitors. Mike Tyson had shoulders so strong that his head barely moves when punched. Ted rinne have great judo AND also a very tall and strong body. Same with Phelps. My point is, may athletes born with talent and work their asses to be the bests at their sports, but there is some of these that also born with physical advantages that take then to another level. (Sorry for any incorrect word or grammar concordance, I'm Brazilian).

@@raymondrocco6251 I guess we'll see when he competes at mundials/adcc.

@@user-yx1qk4sk5t is that MMA??

Craig Jones - isn’t that the beauty of Jiu-jitsu? It allows a physically inferior person to be competitive with someone with superior athletic attributes?

Lucas Batista yes and there are disadvantages to those body types too that have to be accounted for, Mike Tyson does not have a long reach so he must operate inside, Teddy Riner cannot as easily do throws like Seoi Nage that require getting under the opponent and as far as Phelps goes he has to move all that mass through the water quickly

When both athletes are wearing the same color gi one of them puts additional belt to distinguish athletes

The nogi equivalent is an 80s sweatband on the ankle.

David Dugan drysdale was that man back then. He choked Marcelo that year and he was on top of the world .

Chandiwira Beza wow I didn’t know that ...roger beat him easily imo

David Dugan I mean has 10-20lbs Of muscle and an inch or two of height on drysdale in this fight . He technically should have won . People are so scared of making mistakes against roger they maybe try 70-80% on him and he takes advantage of it. If he wants a grip he pretends he doesn’t . If he doesn’t want you to have a grip he tries to pretend to be ambivalent . Roger wins psychologically before he ever chokes you. All he does is stay in position where you can’t use angles or leverage or grips against you and he only engages you when he can do those things to you . The way to beat him is to bring pressure and of all things you’d have to throw him and find a way to stay top without being swept. Traditional wrestling takedowns won’t work but he’s been easily thrown by guys with good stand up .

Chandiwira Beza yes true , that is how buchecha had some success plus he was much younger . I started Jiu jitsu at 35 in 2007 , I am 48 train once a week , my neck is so jacked you wouldn’t believe me

David Dugan yessir . Buchecha did well too but roger knew he had some tendencies that wouldn’t serve him well. There was some basically genius level guy who posted a video here on KZfaq about how roger won that last fight too and it was amazing. 12 years of Jiu jitsu and some of the concepts he talked about were so obvious but high level I just had to scratch my head. Makes you realize how a lot of Rogers success is just sheer intellectually driven . He’s smart and he uses it

Gaz do wey proten

Mais acho que alguém da própria família deve conseguir vence lo.

Human 😅

Came to the comments to see if anyone else mentioned it

Lmao, ol sergeant shitty pants was having a tough match.

It’s the drysdale syndrome

Interesting point for sure. BJJ is just about technique though, it’s about using what you have an as an advantage and for Roger that’s his height and limbs. Also he literally ripped a gi so his strength is probably ridiculous

In bjj skills can beat strength and size. But if u a 6’4 190lb Gracie, that pretty much does it innt?

The best answer is... He is the G.O.A.T End of History. Lol

Skoll, style, and body type

He did fight Marcelo and choked him out about as fast as Drysdale

I’ve heard people say the same thing about soccer, and it’s usually people that haven’t played and don’t understand the rules. So, I have to ask. Have you trained Jiu Jitsu? I’ve only trained for a couple of months, but feel like I have enough of a basic understanding of takedowns and what immediately follows to make those long times of standing and getting grips very intense and interesting. This was a great match from what I could tell.

@@middleclassboardgamer it doesn't take away the fact it was soooo slow, regardless of any rules, I get it that it would be enjoyed by their own sportsmen but it's not very dynamic to watch.

jay morris I’ll grant the “dynamic” part, but it’s still intense and fun to watch in my opinion.

No one walks around like a swimmer pool.

I know it's three years later... but still, comments like these are so dumb. 1. This is sport BJJ. The Gi is a uniform. It molds the techiniques used and the strategy. American football players wear a helmet and shoulder pads, and no one says, "That's lame, no one walks around in shoulder pads." 2. Even if you wanted to compare this to "street fighting", a Gi is WAY closer to what people actually wear. A jacket, sweater, heavier flannel shirt, etc... are all not dissimilar to a Gi. Especially in the sense that you can use those pieces of clothing to get grips. 2a. On the other hand, no-Gi is about as unrealistic as you can get in a real world fight. Who walks around wearing skin tight spandex? Unless you're at the beach I guess...
