7:53 young female blue belt about to whoop Gringos ass! That is Beatriz Mesquita who later became multiple time world champ in Gi (IBJJF) and won ADCC a few times as well!
and 29:25, Bruno Panno was the one who brought gracie humaita to Maroubra/Bronte in the eastern suburbs of Sydney. Today he is still the Head Coach of Gracie Humaita in Alexandria. Royler is known to pass through from time to time. Oss
Igor was my first BJJ coach at Fabio Prado Jiu Jitsu in Fairfield, CA around 2011. Crazy seeing him on here. I second guessed if it was him until they said his name.
Yes, I do. I haven't been able to train at a gym in a few years due to my career. I haven't been to the Ralph Gracie location, but Fabio still has a gym open in Dixon. My former coach Sonny Ramos has a pretty good gym in suisun called T4L. I liked it better because it had other arts such as: wrestling, muay thai, kaju kempo etc. The Ramos family are the ones that brought kaju kempo to the state from Hawaii. Good people too.
@@ked4 I used to train at Ralph Gracie Berkeley and at Fabio Prado when I was going to school in Vallejo. I got my blue belt from Fabio back in 2015. They were very different but great schools. Ralph Gracie was straight to the point, you started with 30 min of calisthenics, some technique, and then rolling. There was pretty much no talking, no sitting out rounds, you are there to train. But it was a room full of tough rounds. Fabio Prado was way more relaxed, do a quick warmup, get to instruction and drilling, gets some rounds in. Lots of laughing and music to go along with the instruction. The cost was also a big difference. In 2015 it was like $160 a month for three days a week at Ralph Gracie Berkeley and if you went to open mat that counted as a day. I also had to pay bridge tolls which were like another $60 a month. Fabio Prado was $100 a month for unlimited. Costs have probably changed at both. At the end of the day I would try out both and see which gives you a better feeling.
Yes, they're a joke and they're ruining the game. Today's high level grappling matches consist of two guys sitting on their butts with legs entangled trying to leg lock each other. Like "f*ck guard passing and dominant positions, I'mma heel hook ya brah".
@@kiraPh1234k Yeah, maybe, and maybe that's why wrestling is the dominant discipline in today's MMA and BJJ experts are vanishing from the sport. Why leg lock finishes are so rare to see? Oh, it's not so easy when punches are involved? What started as a fighting style to prove superiority against other disciplines, ended up as a p*ssified and lazy sport.
@@FerDensetsu "Pussified" is absolutely wild. When muscemeci dominated iminari in his ONE debut, it was leg focused and iminari too extreme damage while refusing to tap. Disagreement is one thing, but you've got to be genuinely stupid to call a sport that will permanently maim you "pussified"
Because time has moved on. Now all the martial arts are integrated. I remember watching this when it came out over 10 years ago it was an awesome series
I would love to see a remake of this show but I wouldn't want Discovery or History channel producing it. I don't want the goofy shit like Doug pulling a car with his head. It's not 2007 anymore. People have generally more knowledge about martial arts. No one has the tolerance for the mystical stuff anymore. I just want to watch people train different styles, maybe having more than a week to train as well. But you would have to find the right hosts, not just good fighters but people good on camera. Jimmy and Doug were great hosts.
He has a podcast/channel here on RU-vid, and there's a playlist on his channel where he talks about behind the scenes on Fight Quest. Apparently, while they were there in Rio, Jimmy got super sick because the producers made him swim in polluted water that they didn't know was sewer runoff from the favelas 😅 poor Jimmy.....
lol I love how Rickson doesn't do anything. He's like "yeah I'll come down from LA, say a few words, watch this white guys get their asses beat, get paid".
All of theses black belts coaching these two and in their matches they coaching each other. Shut up and let the instructions come from their coaches. Lol
@@SINdaBlock411 But I'm not, so nice try bud, but I'll ask this, how do you know if they are "mcdojo"? Have you trained with a Gracie? Have you trained with any BJJ at all? I think you're just a typical keyboard warrior who's running his mouth over the Internet, just like the others! 😂
@@SINdaBlock411 Troll? Says the guy who just said Jutaijutsu is better? Yeah, you are joking, you think anyone's gonna take that comment seriously? Than you're truly delusional
