I'm guessing he's training both. As Metamoris 3 gets closer I'm sure he'll focus more and more without the gi on. Royler has never had a big online presence or lots of training/rolling footage out there so it's mostly guess work. The guy won 3 ADCCs back to back without a point scored on him, was one of the first of the old-school BJJers to go heavy on the foot locks, and he was the first to write a no-gi instructional book on submission wrestling. A lot of the shit in that book isn't basic either.
Royler is more no-gi friendly than a lot of people assume.
He better be working in the gi. Everyone knows the gi makes you better at no gi.
he wont have any grip strength if he only trains no gi so I hope he is focusing on pistol grips to tighten his game
eddie should be doing the same
