Man in the Absolute he may not have even scored a single point. He definitely didn't score in his Absolute finals match. Calasans is mega frustrating. I've always liked him. he can have blistering hot matches or boring as fuck matches and you never know what the fuck you're gonna get from him.Quote:

He's also the last guy you ever want to bet on. He usually either goes to the finals or loses his first match. So he won this ADCC Absolute division this time but last ADCC he got darce choked by some random European guy in the first round.
I loved his Te Guruma of Roger Gracie he hit one year.
right? and i think he was also upset in that tournament in Chechnya where the mendes bros had their superfights.Quote:

That's right! I forgot about Chechnya. Yeah he did lose you're right. My favorite Calasans match is probably versus Buchecha. Crazy match. This ADCC was weird in general. barely any subs compared to usually. But I vut off the final. it was too boring and I was exhausted.Quote:

Even his guard work is so based around getting to that single. I'm a huge fan. I was especially impressed with was how against disengaging opponents he was still able to go from his butt to hit feet and grab them, take them down, and get onto their backs. Also IMO he's the best pressure passer ever no-gi at those tiny weights also. Always going for the kill. So fluid and fun to watch. He's awesome.Quote:
