Not sure. Im at work rt now and they block youe tube...but Derrick from HQ (Think he is a brown belt) is the guy who posts all the other vids from Marcelo's Site...maybe he knows the trick?
My Bad, not Derrick his name is Nathan "Máquina"...I posted on his wall to see if he could do it.

Great job Kevin!

Looks like it didn't post as an embedded vid - I got no other ideas of how to do it
It's because they use an swf wrapper.
No direct access to the actual video.
nice guard work kevin
Yo Kev...not only did you survive you did better than most of those young bucs man (jake shields, JT, ben askren). Props to you brother and what an honor...
I'm pretty sure this is the first time I've seen one of these clips of Marcelo rolling at his school and him not tap out his opponent.
Great Job Kevin!
Thanks everyone. Wish I would have done better...but he is AMAZING!! So heavy, strong and his base is unbelieveable. It was an honor to roll with him...I felt pretty good with the Gi on (last time was 2006/2007) so where better to learn what Ive been missing these past 5 years then from the master :) Wish I lived closer to NYC so I could go everyday. He is truly a great champion, humble guy and excellent teacher. I suggest being a part of his online site MGinaction.com...holds me over till I can get up in person once a week.
Great job Kevin. I subscribe to Marcelo's site and u did way better than most of the guys I've seen him roll with.
Thank you Rob. Its not easy grappling with someone you admire...to me it was like a free throw contest with Jordan..you wanna do well and you want him to think you are good all at the same time, and in the back of your head your thinking, I cant believe Im rolling with MG :) ...with Marcelo you know deep down that if you make one mistake, its over and you are playing catch up the rest of the round. Once he has you in a bad spot its rough getting out. Beyond that, you could play everything perfectly and he will force you to make an error...I learned more from that one round then an entire year of training :)
That was an awesome display Kevin, you have a super solid game
The fact that you didn't get tapped is pretty damn bad ass Kevin, I'm proud of you man :)
Thank you...I can see where in the vid I made 3 crucial mistakes. Subtle, but enough to have to play catch up. Once you fall behind on him, its a daunting task to try and get that ground back. My first error was at around 2:06...I played the frame instead of escaping my hip and he got to half guard then at 2:54 I did the same when he was knee on belly and gave up the mount. Then at 3:29 (ish) I recovered guard from his mount/side control and I let him control my left pant leg and he immediately went to side control again....back to the drawing board :)
Great job man!
can only paid members view it? It wont let me watch it.
Thats badass coach! You went 5 mins with the best grappler ever! You didnt tap and didnt appear to be in any serious danger and still humble enough to point out 3 points of the video where you felt you could have done better. This is why I drove an hour each way a day to train with you. i cant wait to get back stateside and get back to training!
Everyone who knows you has been shouting it for a while now Kevin your skills are way underrated and underestimated Im proud of you brother this video and your schools proformances latley speak for themselves keep up the good work
Nice job Kevin!
Kevin is there video of you and Marcelo rolling no-gi?
Thnx everyone...and no, no video doing no Gi yet....but I go weekly n if I'm lucky enough to get the chance to roll w him again, n he vids it, and it makes the site....ill post it for sure.
I read about this thread over on mginaction where someone said there was a guy named Kevin Green who was claiming he rolled with Marcelo and had never been tapped and couldn't be tapped by him. Upon checking it out, I am happy to see Kevin is claiming no such thing, but am shocked to see all the comments praising him for not getting tapped including a comment by Eddie Bravo. As a member of mginaction who has watched every single one of Marcelos rolling vids and more than once to and has based my game off of his I have to tell you Marcelo is going extremely slow and easy in that roll. I live 5 hrs from his school and have been training there quite regularly for over a year and have been fortunate enough to roll with Marcelo many times. I sometimes get tapped 5, 6 or even more times in a round and sometimes not at all and let me tell you its not because of anything I am doing that changes the outcome. The guy is the best grappler in the world and how anyone could think upon watching that video that Marcelo was even trying is beyond my understanding. Anyone that is half way decent has gone with guys they could tap easily, but because they are working different parts of their game or are allowing the other guy to work a little bit they choose not to go hard. I can only hope for the OP's sake he is lucky enough to go with Marcelo when he is going harder to experience getting tapped many times with ease. Trust me when I say I am not trying to be disrespectful to OP. I am only a purple belt myself and don't think I am anything special. I was just amazed to see some of the ignorant comments here that in my opinion are disrespectful to one of the best and nicest grapplers ever.
