If Eddie really loves his students he'll break into tears (like Marcelo does here around 8:20) when he opens his new 10th Planet HQ.

cool video, thanks :cool:
Gotta love that guy!
Can't wait to get in the city for a visit. The place looks great.
Wow, what a guy. :)
Such an awesome dude!
Anybody know if he plans on doing mixed martial arts ever again?
hey is such a sweet sweet dude ! Awesome vid
I can't see why he would. His name carries so much weight in the world of grappling that he'll never have to do MMA in order to gain popularity or anything. It's just like how Eddie said he never wanted to do MMA, but he thought about it simply to make money. At this point, Marcelo is never going to have to worry about making money.Quote:

Im surprised he doesnt have more schools around the country with his accomplishments. I guess he is kinda young still.Quote:

It's impossible to be a douchebag and be the best Judo, BJJ, MMA ect fighter in the world. Douchebags will find it easier to brag about their skills when it's almost also transparent they are self conscious trying to convince themselves of their skills, and how bad ass they are, and in the end everyone loses. It's only sad and unfortunate for humanity to have self conscious people like that in it. I guess if you're the great, or the best at something you don't need to tell everyone, do you?
Rock on marcelo you're amazing!
ya, well eddie loves me so much that he touched me in a funny place when there were no other witnesses.
i'd like to see marcelo do THAT!
Nothing beats rolling to Twisted Sister. :)
Thanks for that awesome video! I had seen a previous picture of Marcelo giving his opening day speech, with Ric filming it, and I knew we were in for a treat in a few days.
Ric also took this great picture of Marcelo getting his academy ready. (I added the text, but I just stole it from a bjj shirt)

Eddie seems like a great guy- I'm betting on a couple of tears when he opens up.
I just hope someone can document it- I love these types of grand opening types of videos.
Thanks ;)Quote:
