[@Stoic_Jiujitsu]

Hopefully we will see craig jones vs nicholas meregali again.

[@Threewlz]

Hope to see him against the ~second best grappler in the world~ Craig Jones in -99kg and Nicky Rod in absolute at ADCC

[@simpsthreedee3818]

Craig Jones said he wouldn't go against him again, so he can always say he beat him, Nicky Rod would only have a slim chance at best to beat him.

[@Threewlz]

@@simpsthreedee3818 Since VH beat Nick I believe he is more likely to have a chance against Menengali

[@blumpkinspicelatte4580]

Chael Supermatch makes the most sense.

[@jrblookout5567]

Props to Rocha for picking the hardest fights he can. Man is just old and doesn’t have the size for nick or Gordon. Nonetheless props to him

[@kommisar.]

Yeah, people aren't giving him enough credit for that. The man is definitely no wuss.

[@jt-ff3yx]

This match was over before it began.

[@tolgakilic2172]

Wish u did this for Nicky Ryan’s match

[@snypox]

It's on b-team's channel bro

[@ajabisong]

Picasso and Hammons on the mat, is Nicolas Meregali! Beautiful expression of Jiujitsu! JD sums it up perfectly at the end.

[@caglartunca34]

where is the logic in this matchup..the guy is among the best competitiors recently,has significant weight and age advantage over the other..

[@enzzozzardo]

The logic is that they want to build Meregali’s name the same way they did with Gordon. He brags about winning some big names, but they were far from their prime just like Vagner in this case. But, it must be hard to match someone against Nicolas now, there are very few people that could beat him I believe like Craig Jones

[@MBsr5]

Meregali just tooled that Diniz who was 230lbs and a adcc champ. Made him look like a bum,. Who else should he go against? He accepts all challengers. Give the kid credit

[@marci0brasil]

Um cara focado na perfeição da luta.

[@supern0is349]

thx flo for the upload

[@juancarlosheredia9068]

Three people in the event and they don’t share the fights until days after. Share the damn entire thing for the fans all the time!

[@MrBostonStrangler]

Nic’s size, strength, weight, skill set and mind set on a level with Gordon.

[@damianvizar]

Beautiful jiujitsu 🤙

[@Jogo296]

Quem vai parar esse monstro!

[@luizrodrigues7403]

Easy figth for him

[@MarcusVsJessica]

🔥 match 🥋 🤙

Nicolas representa o Brasil no topo do no gi

[@celsocampi2684]

💪Monstergali is tough!!!!👏

[@flimflamdaglimglam]

Yo where do I get one of them hoodies Meregali had on. Shits dope.

[@ItsDave76]

The rematch against Craig will be 🔥

[@FredrikAndersson-zi2tn]

Tbh i think Craig is chilling, don't think he will be back fighting gordon, meregali etc.

[@julianofrancisco2726]

🔥🔥

[@GuilhermeXavier883]

when will happen nicholas vc ryan ?

[@firecamp8392]

🤩🤩🤩

[@alimentodeverdade]

Someone could transcripts the conversation between Rocha’s couch and Meregali at 6:25 (roughly)? I’m struggling to understand it due the surround noise.

[@biomedicoduarte366]

Alguém traduz essa porra por favor 😂

[@BreuXBranco]

Alguém falou groselha pro Meregalli zuando o inglês dele (que é meio zuado mesmo). Ele meteu um "São 25 anos de Jiu-Jitsu vs. 2 anos de inglês, relaxa aí mano, ninguém te chamou na conversa".

[@alimentodeverdade]

@@BreuXBranco valeu meu! Vou escutar de novo. Mas alguém mandou um “…shut up!!!” antes dele falar isso que você disse, fiquei curioso também em saber o que foi… ninguém falaria “…you can’t speak English properly so shut up!” Kkk seria muita arrogância… o que será que veio antes desse shut up?

[@alimentodeverdade]

Caramba! Escutei de novo! O cara falou “you don’t know English enough” e a galera riu… deve ser brasileiro… só brasileiro tem essa mentalidade…

[@BreuXBranco]

@@alimentodeverdade Na conferência pré luta o Vagner falou que o inglês dele era um lixo daí a galera quis fazer virar meme...

[@taskyr819]

John bot talking and just nodding out of approval is so funny

Who's that blond in the beginning? She's perfect.

[@sumosteve665]

Out-freakin-standing!!! Now THAT is technical Jits.....

[@FredrikAndersson-zi2tn]

its quite easy to apply technique when some is 30% smaller then you

[@MangoBums]

vagner looks much smaller no?

[@sharulrahman3748]

Give him Nicky rod

[@tombeans2204]

if Nicholas wasn't so try hard in his interviews he probably would be a really likeable guy, hes probably really funny

[@alexdrastico7840]

Didn't stand a chance

[@andersnilssondvm]

Nicholas missed the beginners class where blue belts would teach him to never cross the legs on the armbar XD

[@FredrikAndersson-zi2tn]

why shouldnt u do that? :D

[@andersnilssondvm]

​@@FredrikAndersson-zi2tn Exactly. Ronda rousey and many top Judokas have had great success with it and so has many top grapplers against other top grapplers. When doing the armbar from bottom position it is easier for oponent to spin out when stacking because there is no head control when crossing feets. From top position the armbar can be crossed behind oponent far shoulder to prevent hitchhike escape or to prevent oponent to move away from you. With the crossed feets you can then pull them back into your groin. So usually not crossed feets on the sides of the far shoulder ( crossed feets connect by the neck or by the armpit/ribs) far arm should be trapped with the crossed feets. Or else you can get stacked or hitchhike escaped. As a beginner better to skip crossed feets tiol one learns when to do it. As an expert you just wear your oponent completely out and you do the armbar how ever you like XD KZbin: BJJ Mistakes - Armbar Crossed Feet and BJJ Techniques: Crossed Feet by John Danaher I hope this answer your question.

[@FredrikAndersson-zi2tn]

@@andersnilssondvm solid answer, thanks bro!

[@veteransowhat5669]

It's not talking or script.

[@amerhdidou7696]

meregali loves to talk english more than jiu jitsu i think

[@josephavila6226]

Weight n size were a bigger factor than skill in this match

[@DonGately]

also age.

[@MrDEVILDOG]

Why did he even face Rocha? He should be facing the top guys have him face Craig or Kaynan now.

[@323trunks]

He just submitted Kaynan in his most recent fight. I am thinking it’s only going to get more difficult in finding a willing opponent the closer we get to ADCC.

[@rorkan138]

Anyone wonder if New Wave brought on Meregali so he wouldn't get matched up with Ryan?

[@simpsthreedee3818]

Not really, Meregali went to them.

[@rorkan138]

@@simpsthreedee3818 If that's true then yeah. I didn't know who went to who

[@marky1846]

Why put 6 cuts of the arm drag in...?? How weird.

[@strider7008]

The back-and-forth like a boxing press conference is just cringe. Please dont try to conor mcgregor our sport.

[@igorminissale60]

Makes me mad that new wave guys can be so good at bjj, but so fucking disrespectful and without any sportsmanship. This feels exactly like the reflection that the media is telling us . This is not what the people want . Ever asked yourself why Musumeci is the most loved one ? He can beat some of the best in the world by doing it RESPECTFULLY . Cmon man, we can be better than this .

[@Pol-jj7my]

THIS. It's like the opposite of what BJJ or any martial art is supposed to be. It reminds me of the Cobra Kai in the old Karate Kid hahaha

[@jrblookout5567]

Rocha is a stud, but he needs to let go. He can’t compete with the top 5. I know He would beat my ass I’m not delusional.

[@kommisar.]

In all fairness, he took on a guy with a serious weight advantage.

[@vanyakapetanovic4018]

Rocha was talking so much shit and ended up dominated the entire time. The confidence came from where dude sucks.

[@simpsthreedee3818]

He knew his only chance was to get into Meragalli's head. Didn't work.

[@FredrikAndersson-zi2tn]

''dude sucks'' hes in the very elite in the grappling world, how much do you suck if u say he suck? xD

[@vanyakapetanovic4018]

@@FredrikAndersson-zi2tn You are right I dont know why I said that I am sure he is incredible I am just saying after all that he said he put a sucky performance. I suck for sure hahaah

whys meregali pretending hes only been training 2 years lol

[@tombeans2204]

hes so cringe, try hard jiu jitsu is very awkward.

[@Pol-jj7my]

Why is Meregali so full of himself? Wrong attitude for a martial artist.

Boring… not a spectator sport. I’ve been training 10 years and can barely stay awake watching
