хаха Its amazing intro though. Beating Marcelo Garcia and posting the match is ok, even it was 12years ago, but the comment is more than disrespectful .... I have no words... .
Ive never seen MG to post, said or do something like this and thats why he is so GREAT!
It's so strange seeing Marcelo lose
I agreeQuote:

Obviously this guy has accomplished something pretty incredible and from the other posts I see, he's legit. That being said, he seems like a pretty hostile dude, especially after that introduction. Definitely not someone I'd want to learn from, where as Marcelo is the complete opposite.
Why not match these two up now and see who gets the better of who? :)
And you want to know the weirdest thing? This guy could potentially (if his affiliation/relationship with his lineage is still the same) be considered a member of/affiliate of my team. It says in the description he's certified under De La Riva, who taught my instructor up through brown belt and has a good relationship with him to the point where he's going to come teach a seminar for our team annually. And the picture at the end of the video shows one of the Noguiera brothers to his left, who my instructor also trained with. In fact he recently posted an awesome photo of he and Minotauro from a jiu-jitsu event in Brazil back in 2000 or 2001.
Unless your name is Rickson Gracie everyone loses with the right mindset it only makes you grow and become a better competitor obviously has for Marcelo since he's been smashing everyone for the past few years.
Yes they are from the same lineage. Dustin is actually responsible for bringing Liborio to the US and starting ATT. And its like Pablo Popovitch says all of the time "Dustin doesn't have Submissions, he has Fatalities"Quote:

And I think my old instructor Parrumpinha is going to Best Way soonQuote:
