I watched this a few days ago and it's been my home page since. These guys are p4p best in the world IMO. I actually just came on right now to see if anyone was talking about this.
What an amazing match. So technical!
Thaks for the vid, bro! Those guys are so sick!
The best in the world right now people. Start taking notes.
Please tell me they're making a book called "Rubber Spine: The Art of Passing" or "Rubber Hips: Where'd Your Guard Go?"
I wanna clone to grapple!!
How about Gui's rolling sweep at the start. That was awesome.
Amazing x guard escapes and tremendous balance, makes me wanna start up with the balance ball :)
Does anyone know if they were going at it 100%?? They are brothers, right?
They're brothers. Their 100% is odd. Their strength lies in their technical abilities. Not strength wise. Technically, they are going 100%! I rolled with Rafa during the Atos camp and he doesn't use much strength. It's more of a technical flow. Pretty much the epitome of the BJJ concepts. When we rolled, he was like a cat and I was a ball of yarn for him to play with. I barely got a sweep on him from deep half. The rest of the time rolling was spent with Rafa on my back. These brothers are genuine bad asses!Quote:

The agility and balance they have makes strength seem completely unnecessary. It's hard to follow in terms of points because they are so smooth (and also so similar looking in the same clothing), you barely realize someone just got swept. They are something to aspire to...and how old are they again?
Watch Rafa vs Cobrinha, or Rafa vs Leo Vieira in ADCC 2009. That is Rafa at 100%. I don't think Rafa and Gui were going 100% in this match.Quote:

Rafa Mendes was 20 when he won ADCC 09. Guilherme is older but not by much.
