I wonder if Rafa has considered MMA. Im sure right now he is happy to be building his BJJ legacy, but later on ... he could be a force.

I know he is a guard player, but the way he flows so easily, I don't see that GnP would last very long before he had you all tied up. I mean, if he can gramby halfway to turtle, hit an omaplata on the roll back, and then quickly go from on his back to attacking a belly-down armbar to the back, then even peppering shots from on top would be a dangerous proposition. Plus, that was Justin Rader. Imagine most MMA lightweights or welterweights trying to defend that.

ADCC '11 was my introduction to Rafa Mendes. Since then I've seen a lot of his footage and he's no friggin joke. Damn. I love the way light guys roll. I wanna have that style.

Man, check out his ADCC 09 stuff if you can. His match 40 minute war against Cobrinha is one of the best matches of all time, and the way he subbed Patino, Rader, and Vieira were all awesome.

He had some amazing matches at the Worlds this year too.
