That match with Royler was amazing, the fact that he beat him with his own method really showed people he was on another level. I would love to see him in MMA, there's few people utilizing that system successfully and i think he would school alot of top fighters, granted he developed the required skills (striking,wrestling, etc.) Rogan would be Intense lol He would submit someone, walk back to his corner and the go interview his opponent "when did you realise i had you in trouble? alright lets look at the monitor"

Pretty sure that video with Bravo and the students is staged.

What? My life has no meaning now...
but really, was still pretty funny ish...
yeah. it's safe to say that a fighter needs to bring more weapons to the cage than just bjj and if he's not into putting the time into other stuff it'd probably not be a good move. some of the comments posted by people on youtube suggest that the video of bravo choking out that douchebag at the gym was staged as a prank. anyone agree?

Oooh like to see him and BJ roll around or even Aoki ..... haha Bravo and Rogan tag team match with BJ and his mom

I believe Aoki trained with Bravo. I don't know if he still does but if I remember right that's pretty much where he got his skills. Aoki may be a good example of what it would look like if Bravo and Rogan were to fight.

Yeah, Aoki trained w/ Bravo...Here's a vid of Bravo showing the gogo to Aoki...

Description on tube,
Now this is an *** whooping!!! The final score was 15 (Leo) to -4 (Eddie)! Leo Vieira is one of the most aggressive grapplers I've ever seen! From Abu Dhabi Combat Club (ADCC) 2003!

People act like Eddie would just be able to submit everyone in MMA. Not if he cant get them to the ground and then he was to worry about getting punched in the face and elbowed. Lot harder to use Jitz in MMA than tourney style rolling.

That's what I always say, G Bjj is very different than No Gi (ADCC) Bjj, and No Gi (ADCC) bjj or grappling is a whooooooole different world than MMA grappling.

Defintly. I think Eddie would have a style like demian maia, using his striking to just set up take downs and to get in close to pull gaurd. I dont think as of right now he would run through his weight class submitting everybody, just because your elite at one discipline doesn't mean that you'll be successful in MMA. That goes for any discipline, if you go in one dimensional youll be exposed quickly

Does Eddie Bravo pocess any striking to back your claim up?

Not saying right now Eddie possesses the neccessary striking ability, but if he were to enter MMA he would obviously work on developing some i would assume. I used maia as an example of what i think he would end up fighting like if he did enter MMA and trained
Thats fair, but not everyone is comfortable getting striked at and Damian Maia(showed some sort of striking his last fight) doesnt have the best stand up. So if Eddie were able to keep his hands up and throw punches, he might be able to get people down.

I think maia will school Bravo in a grappling match.

I agree i think thats what Eddie would need to accomplish just getting enough striking and defense to be able to intelligently make some sort of transition to the ground. I would love to see Eddie and Maia roll though im kind of torn on that one.

I would like to see that too except for Maia has some pounds on Bravo might be a lil unfair
