Didn't know Antonio banderas is badass

Hespect!

Most people don’t realize that Rickson left MMA for good after Rockson died. He might’ve had a little left in the tank but the loss of his eldest son was devastating!

His face is stuck like this😡

Joe HOGAN!!!

rickson was very lucky he wasn’t on the same era as master renato laranja...

...i could listen to Jean Jaques for hours... Such a humble, relaxed guy! Real warrior!

You know a guy is good when Jean-Jacques compliments them.

Back in the 90's Rickson and the Machado's had the best BJJ studios in So Cal.   It's grown so much, but glad to see one of the best (Jean Jaques).  He is very humble.

1:18 I have actually seen Rickson so this.  The biggest guy in the room (power lifter/bouncer) chose front head lock.   Never stood a chance.  Rickson tapped him in less than 2 minutes with the strangest arm bar I ever saw.  Then he let the next guy pick a position, then the next guy, again and again, 10 straight guys, took a break for a few minutes and then came back and did ten more.  He wrestled every single guy in the room who wanted a match at his seminar that day.  So around 50 matches.  All of us chose our starting position.  Some guys he fought with one hand in his belt, some guys he set a limit that they could not lose unless he arm barred their left arm etc etc.

The worst hair interviews the best hair.

All the local NJ pizza joints have a guy that looks like Rigan.  I know theyre Italian, but still I watch my manners just in case.

I was lucky enough to get my blue belt under Rickson Gracie, it was so incredible to get to roll with him and Rockson

The Machado's are great instructors, I trained with Rigan, Jean Jacques and Carlos. I feel fortunate. Great guys.

I’m not a massive MMA fan but I really enjoyed this podcast. The pace was great .

The importance that Rickson put on breath control and health, and animal instinct, is very simiar to old school Chinese Kungfu's emphasis on breathing, chi kung methods and animal kungfu concepts.

It's always cool to see things come full circle.

O cara consegue ter um sotaque carioca com americano kkkkkkkkkkkk

Rigan Machado was probably biggest challenge to Rickson, most likely due to his size. He was the biggest and strongest Machado brother.

They conveniently always fail to mention the greatest BJJ fighter 27 time champion Renato Laranga ! 😁

Jean Jacques Machado is so awesome. What a cool dude.
