What does Eddie think of Braulio Estima ?

[Lenegan]

I know Eddie speaks highly of Marcelo Garcia and all the grappling greats.

I'm just wondering what he thinks of Braulio , as it could be said at the moment he's one of, if not the best grapplers in the world.



Thoughts anyone ?

By the way I'm a big fan of Eddie and his awesome system!

I'm thinking Eddie probably thinks he's one of the top players in the world, and subsequently respects him.

As everyone should, thats a baaaaaad dude.

Yes Braulio is awesome. I did a seminar with him at Dave Coles' gym in the UK a few years back ; gutted I didnt make the most of it beacuse I was so hung over and sleep deprived!

I'm curious too. Right now I have Braulio as the best no-gi grappler on the planet. I'm sure it can be debated, but seeing as how he moonwalked through his division and the Absolute at ADCC in '09 it's pretty hard to argue. I also really would like to learn his modified footlock that he broke Rafael Lovato Jr's foot with. He used that to sweep and pass Marcelo Garcia's guard which allowed him to get a crazy arm triangle/RNC combo for the win. And obviously everyone knows about his crazy Inverted Triangles.

Lucky bastard! Has he taught you guys his straight footlock? I know his brother has a vicious one as well!

I agree with you , he was incredible at ADCC. I'm going to be teaching his inverted triangle next week in my class, its beautiful! Only wish I could pull it off when someone was not being compliant ha ha ha

The achillies lock? yeh he has, i use that all the time! i really like the choke variations he shows us aswell. Victor used to teach at my academy too before he opened up his own one. Prety lucky to have such top guys with a school so close to my house!

[Sarah-Jane & Del Christie]

Victor is amazing also...trained with him and Ramone & Richie at the 10th Planet Social last Sunday...brilliant session

Braulio is awesome! One helluva guy and funny as hell! Had me rolling the whole time! He showed me that triangle from HG and that sweet ass achillies lock, ohh and a very simple high percentage wrist lock
