Marcelo definitely. He is so smooth with his passing and he always looks for the finish. Once he has the back it is game over. He also is the very definition of technique over size. In summary - I LOVE HIM!
Cyborg Abreu, Eddie Bravo, Marcelo Garcia, Jeff Glover, Braulio Estima, Franjinha Miller, Rafa & Gui Mendes, Vinny Magalhaes, and Cobrinha.
IMO there is a really good grappler who is a very underrated grappler, people make fun him a lot yet every single person could learn from because he crushes everyone no one has yet had a proper answer to his style.Quote:

I watched the GSP Diaz fight and watched basically 5 rounds of gut wrench control and Diaz having 0 escapes from it and I thought to myself god damn that looks powerful and as long as you gable grip below the bottom rib and watch kimuras and get good at switching sides you're pretty safe, like its really fucking annoying and you look like shit when caught in it
My student Kevin won gold at NAGA because on everyone he faced he gut wrenched them they couldn't escape despite there best granby, kimura and kneebar attempts and that counts as side control in NAGA
If you watch his fight with BJ Penn you'll learn some tricks on stopping rubber guard.
He is beautiful to watch, as long as you're studying his controls I think people forget how hard it is to dominate positions on top level grapplers and Daiz is a very skilled grappler and the only thing he could say about the gut wrench was that GSP was cheating and had a spy in his camp which is why none of the escapes worked
