Buchecha Highlight Reel

Move's like a light wieght...strength like a heavy wieght. Top 5 favorite grappler.

Does he compete in a lot of nogi comps? I've seen a lot of gi

Buchecha competed in the Ultimate Absolute tournament in NYC a couple of years back, that was no gi and it had Galvao, Magalhaes, etc.

Yeah Vinny subbed Buchecha in that tourney. I feel that the gi is def Buchechas comfort zone.

yes plus Buchecha is a whole different beast now compared to back then. I am a huge fan of Vinny and Galvao but I think Buchecha will have his way with them both at this point.

His Speed is amazing... His Fight Against Roger at Metamoris was awesome too.

Dayum that's fun to watch.

Also, the music in the video makes me feel like I drank a 12-pack of Red Bulls.

Yeah he did, I forget what it was but I know it was a leglock that had both of Buchecha's legs trapped, might have been a heel hook or some sort of variant. Vinny did very well against some top level guys in both Ultimate Absolute and ADCC.

They spent much of that match in 50/50.

As much as Buchecha may be better in the gi than nogi. I think this is more-so a case of Vinny being outstanding at nogi. That is where Vinny can excel to insane levels - not so much in the gi - but nogi, he can beat anyone in the world. I believe Buchecha has improved since that fight; however, and it would be awesome to see them go at it nogi again.
