Comprido talks smack... again.

Wow, what a fully fleshed out, well developed, researched and cited perspective on physical fitness and health. That's the only thing I hate about martial arts in general, is the culture of presumed knowledge. Too much saying random stuff and pointing at your belt or your trophy case. That's actually what drew me to Eddie's instructional, he logically explains his perspective on everything and how he came to the conclusions that he has. He doesn't just say, "I tapped Royler." whenever someone argues with him.

Guys thats speak like this are full of contradictions......

Its bad for you or its cheating/performance enhancer.......you can't have it both ways.

I think he is just trying to get some attention. He knows Eddie has tons of fans and in his other dumb ass video you could sense the envy to Eddie's success.

He could have done a better Public service announcement against drugs rather than spending half the time talking about Eddie.

Being a sheep is the true sign of being a coward, NOT when one man rises to challenge the powers at be, to push for change. Eddie Bravo is no idiot or coward!

Yeah, I speculate that he's gotta discredit Eddie because he said RG doesn't work then Vinny Mag basically showed how effective it is if done properly on one of the biggest grappling platforms out there.

The crazy thing is, RG has a bad name because a lot of dudes think RG is just pulling your leg up so most people see "RG" fail because guys aren't doing it right. During ADCC a lot of guys in the chat kept mentioning RG whenever a guy would pull their leg up. I'm like, "no dude, that's not RG. He's not hugging his knee. He doesn't have his leg in the right spot. He needs to learn it right." BUT when somebody who actually KNEW the system (Vinny Mag) he makes it work. Go figure.

But I mean, hey, the longer they stay ignorant, the better we get, the more medal/trophies we take home until they accept that it's time to adapt.

I can totally see him believing in what he's saying. I don't think he's necessarily PR whoring and I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt, and trust that he actually thinks he's helping by making his statement. The problem though is that he's just making a trite shallow unsubstantiated statement that my mother could have pulled out from her hat without even using google. The only difference between my mom and Comprido is that wall of medals behind Comprido's back. Though respectable, a wall of medals and a black belt don't comprise a cohesive argument.

The underground has a thread on this if any of you want to put your two cents

Just sparked and followed Jack's link and saw that thread and another about Rogan smoking pot as well. In the Rogan thread I found this little gem.

didn't want to pass it up, as I surely would have forgotten about it.
