Me too man. It also makes me feel old because I remember being in my mid 20's and seeing Rafa and Gui destroy elite black belts when they were in their late teens, and now they're retired? i know Gui retired young but it still makes me feel old.
There are probably some really good grapplers at purple and brown right now that have never trained during a time where they could have seen Marcelo Garcia compete live. Maybe even a couple of black belts assuming they were naturals that lived in the gym.
