I was prompted to this video on Sherdog, surprised I didn't find this here.
Keenan Cornelius of ATOS Jiu-Jitsu against Gianni Grippo of Renzo Gracie NYC battled it out in the finals of the brown belt absolute division at the 2013 IBJJF Boston Winter Open.

What caught my eye was the double C-cup that could have gone to truck @ 3:45, if only Gianni had have watched MTS.
;)
it's wierd seeing him with no Lioyd Irvin logo, up next on medal chasers episode 4 live from DC lockup featuring maldanado, shultz, and potentially Lioyd Irvin. lesson one, defending the back against multiple attackers. lesson two, how to make a shank from a tooth brush, lesson three, how to make grilled cheese with a iron and news paper. lesson four, if i'm half black & half latino, or just a mut mixed with all kinds of shit, what prison gang do I join ?
stay tuned for episode 5, how to avoid turtle position in the shower !

Yeah the leg drag while stomping on the bottom leg is super dope.Quote:

I see what you're saying though. I understand Keenan didn't really establish this position, but I feel this image really shows what I feel like the "leg drag position" is. Rafa isn't really stabilizing on the hips here, he's starting to go to the back, but it's the best image I could find.

I thought about it too. Agreed. Leg drag has become a position to be controlled. Settle over his hips and keep his thigh trapped to advance control.
whats with the green and yellow belt? sorry we dont really use belts where i train. It cant be just to rep brazil, right?
