Cobrinha is on another level, looked like he was operating on a low gear and never appeared to be using a high level of physical effort.
Great fight. That kneebar looked rough for Rader.
Thanks
Awesome. Their matches always end up looking really similar, which I think is pretty cool. Really shows how styles make fights. Cobrinha has had 3 matches against Rader, no submissions, and Cobrinha is the 2nd best guy in the world at that weight class right now, after Rafa. Rafa and Cobrinha always have tight matches, yet Rafa has been able to finish Rader 4 or 5 times always in less than 1-2 minutes.
They both fought a good match. Cobrinha/Rader matches are always awesome.
I thought that RNC was super tight. rader gave up 2 points but may have saved himself by going out of bounds. Last year at the no-gi worlds finals Cobrinha got that same RNC locked in with 10-15 seconds left in the match and Rader held out. Kneebar looked very tight, but Rader doesnt really tap to arm or leg locks. He's so damn stubborn. He pretty much only taps to chokes, or goes to sleep.
not too sure on Rader's hairstyle
sick match
