Q & A (Ask me anything)

[Brian Debes]

Straight up, you vs the guy you invented the rubber stamp ; Were you able to beat the “Rubber stamp” at first by switching sides before coming up with the muddy waters path (I mean any, not just reliably or witch way is easier)? And how long did it take you to come up with muddy waters from the first time you felt the rubber stamp? Same day, same roll? Or a lot longer?

Eddie in your book (I think it was) you pointed at that conditioning was an issue for you leading up to the fight with Royler - or at least I think I recall you specifically mentioning your strength&conditioning coach. In the roll at Marcelo's on YT you seemed to gas pretty hard.

Are you going through a specific conditioning regime for the Royler fight to ensure that your cardiovascular fitness won't be a factor in the fight?

AMA great idea. If a genie gave you one wish to make something happen for the 10P system what would it be?

No genie needed for that. It's happening right now

[Eddie Bravo]

What were the biggest hurdles in your bjj journey, and how did you overcome them?

And, what are your favorite munchies for when you're stoned?

The biggest hurdles were being too cautious when competing. Experience and Jean Jacques got me thru it. I eventually got infected with the confidence he had for me.

Filet o fish & Hot fudge sundae with triple fudge no nuts

Yes, I tried working weak side RG but after maybe 7 times of getting stuck in chill dog is when I decided to stop forcing crow bars, which worked sometimes, and I decided to figure something out from New York. I knew I had to hide my right leg before going to chill dog, so New York crackhead all of a sudden went from being an obsolete position in the RG to a crucial position

Yes I am, Jean Jacques is torturing me with shark tanks. Gonna do extra conditioning starting 4 weeks out, sprints, stairs etc.

How do you feel when you see High-Level non 10PJJ guys playing Rubber Guard, Lockdown, etc?
