It was awesome having Soneca at our gym this weekend. He's a fireball, man. And a legend.
He was telling Me, Sam, and Bobby how when he was competing at 125 lbs he beat Allan Goes, Mario Sperry, and Royler Gracie all in the space of a week.
LEGEND
Super cool. So you roll with him Bmac? He legendary good or what? Very kind words. Very cool of him.
I'm not a big fan of Alan belcher at all, but I do respect his skills. If that guy crushes belcher he's freakin amazing.. I've heard alot about Soneca, good and bad honestly (always good when hearing of his skills) He seems really cool too tho. Not many brazilians are cheering for Eddie.Cool stuff Bmac!
Awesome seminar, Soneca is an awesome teacher and super cool. His attention to detail really helped me take a lot away from the day.
I love Belcher. One of my favorite fighters, actually.
Soneca told me he is still pulling for Royler. He said it was like a soccer match between USA and Brazil. He'd be a traitor to his country to pull for Eddie! He's pulling for Brazil. Kinda like how Eddie says he always cheers for the Mexican boxers
But he was very, very complimentary of Eddie's Jiu Jitsu. He kept talking about how well Eddie uses his feet as grips. He said since we are all 10th Planet students we should pay special attention to this skill of Eddie's and look to emulate it.
Sounds like a super cool guy, it's an honor to have a BJJ legend like him giving me props, I appreciate it tremendously![]()
I thought I'd heard in an interview Soneca sayin the usual stuff that Eddie is disrespectful etc. nice to see him personally set things straight. The interviewer from before must have just said it because he was talkin to Royler lol
