This week we welcome back Tom DeBlass to OMR. Tom is a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu based mixed martial artist fighting for Bellator. We discuss his upcoming fight with King Mo on the Nov 15 Bellator card. Outside of MMA Tom is a successful grappler. We discuss his very controversial match with the legend that is Rodrigo “Comprido” Medeiros at the most recent IBJJF NoGI Mundials. We discuss how a rematch between his student Garry Tonon and Kron Gracie might go and whether Tom would like to see that happen on the tatami or in a cage! We had to discuss what the upcoming Renzo Gracie and Kazushi Sakuraba match means to Tom and the Renzo Gracie/Ricardo Almeida Association. Finally, Tom gives some great advice to anyone looking to improve their training, how to become a better training partner and much much more.
