    Ric - 10 years a blue belt. Sounds like a film!

    Congrats.

    Do you know if Marcelo will ever do Metamorris? I know he said he has back problems in the Stuart Cooper film, but that was probably shot a while back now.

    While I don't pretend to speak for Marcelo, my best guest is that he's totally focused on raising his daughter and on training his students to be world champions. He's had a lot of success so far. I believe at least 6 of his students have won the Mundials/Worlds. I don't think he has any interest in competing at this time. I could see maybe years from now him doing something like Mario Sperry, Fabio Gurgel, Renzo Gracie have done in terms of a superfight, but I really don't think anything like that would happen for several years.

    Thanks Ric, at least new videos of Marcelo rolling occasionally appear online - I'm quite happy with those. I think my favourite ever roll is him rolling against Rafael Lovato Jnr - that's like a mini-Metamorris on its own! So much to learn from that one.

    b.t.w. I became Purple recently too - have just updated my profile. I spent just 2 and a bit years at blue belt. You make me feel bad for getting it so quick
