i hope to see him do well this year at adcc as he has been around for quite a while and i don't think he is well enough known considering his level of skill/talent
i want to say he's been at the last two but came up short to leo viera and kron (obviously two of the best)
I enjoyed watching him compete at ADCC trials, he's a smooth operator for sure. Very calm and collected.
his match with cummings may be one of the best matches of all time.
Yeah I'm ashamed to say that most of my Enrico Cocco memories involve seeing him during the 1st day of various ADCCs. He's had matches that I can remember with Kron Gracie, Leo Vieira, and JT Torres.Quote:

I would say he's top 3 in EBI, beating Cummings at the ADCC trials says ALOT. Plus he had Kron in a deep heel hook in ADCC 2011.
I'm in love with the Cocco
I think I first saw him in a video the Avellans put up of him heelhooking a BJJ black belt in a tournament when he was like 16.
As a pure no-gi guy, it was definitely satisfying to see him beat such a well known BJJ black belt in the 2011 ADCC trials (nothing against Shawn Williams...he seems great).
His match with Kron was awesome. I'm amazed he didn't become more well known after that.
