Thread: I just realized

    I just realized

    After watching the ralek/saku fight that some of the gracies are finally starting to adopt striking into their arsenal. Honestly I believe that someday, at the rate that the gracies are reproducing, someday soon a gracie with no ego is gonna come along that decides to spend as much time studying other arts, like muy thai, karate, pjj, and wrestling as he does bjj.

    and that will be a scary fucking day

    I don't think they need to start teaching without the gi unless it's in preparation for mma or no gi competition. I'm sure BJJ is evolving just as fast with the gi, maybe even faster since they're so many incredible competitors who swear by the gi.

    It's going to be interesting to watch how far Roger and Rolles jr get with sub par striking and incredible jits.

    Rolles is going no where but Roger is actually improving quickly in his striking. He doesn't have the head down bull rush approach like the other Gracies seem to stick with.

    saw ralek throw some decent head kicks in the saku fight but man his standup game needs some work. at least it's a departure from the days of feinting a kick to the knees then running head down into their opponent lmao.
