[@ishakaimen1576]

Caio I respect you. You are a big name in Bjj, But Keenan didn’t say he doesn’t like being a part of team. He said he doesn’t believe in meaningless hierarchy, and rightly so

[@michaellaviola3125]

3:08 haha Mikey and Tammy are thinking " ahh shit, not this story again".

[@LukiHatesMexicanGroundKarate]

Here is your "like"

[@DOOMLORDHOKAGE]

coming back a year later...yeah that's exactly what they were thinking lol

[@carpejkdiem]

Thanks for all your efforts and the awesome peaks inside these great schools. Great Journey to observe. Blessings

[@Kareem_Alcindor]

From a dude that used to encounter Terra in various trainings and competitions, he allegedly was a tyrant with an erratic behavior and boorish ways. That comment about Keenan seems to indicate that. It's easy to criticize someone when you run your own gym.

[@ippolea]

Kareem Alcindor he always looked like that to me, and I don’t even know him.

[@joaomoreira1402]

Unnecessary stab at keenan lol

[@ramirospinelli6453]

Keenan must be the most misquoted guy in the universe xD

[@LukiHatesMexicanGroundKarate]

He was respectful in everything. It would be great if Keenan trains at his academy

[@marcuskartsounis8421]

Don’t think it was a stab I think it was a reference to a recent comment he made in an attempt to make a positive point

[@ippolea]

Steve Mazzagati yes but he doesn’t need to name Keenan, u can talk about teams and their importance without talking about somebody.

[@dna8269]

and then flo purposely puts it in the video to light the fire lol

[@nonot911]

I'm so jealous of Reid and Chase's job. Seems so cool to just get to explore and experience training with all these GOATS

[@flaviolourenco6505]

Really nice Vlog ! Congrats guys, you are doing a lot for the sport

[@blackdogbones9900]

Really unnecessary stab at Keenan. Wasn't his choice to leave Atos him and Andre came to a disagreement and he was asked to leave the team so now he's stuck in limbo. Keenan's just doing what he needs to until he finds a new home or hopefully starts his own gym.

[@Hekilikaua]

agreed. That was uncalled for.

[@ffetter]

Mention someone name's saying you do not agree with some opinion is not a stab. He criticizes the opinion and did not diminish the person.

[@tekal85]

Last thing I heard was that keenan was selling the stuff he learned at Renzos.

[@piotrek3580]

And now he runs Legion 🤙

[@tricyclemishap]

Ah...wished you had spoken with Kristina Barlaan. A missed opportunity to showcase the greatness of her. Nice vlog tho.

[@jufeione150]

Awesome guys .. Thanks for the content

[@fuckbeingbroke2]

Amazing Video 😇

[@jessierodriquez8576]

He literally spoke about having that squad that gives courage, honesty, sticks together and tells it like it is. No bs. He’s humble and has master and taken big names out on comp. Much respect to Caio.

[@JPlynnio]

Road to Worlds is fkg awesome

[@adamhatton7579]

Keenan probably felt uncomfortable being a unique and interesting individual within a Brazilian Cult.

[@laelsombra]

Nice outfit Reid 👌

[@andymandel]

The uploads lol I cant handle it boys

[@jaimeivantamayo]

Is this Caio, the same one that is a huke for Faria in is foundamentals course?

[@DividendRaptor]

Why is he talking about loyalty and team when he ran away from Cesar Gracie to go to Brasa?

[@DividendRaptor]

@Lucas Nascimento rofl

[@bruceallan04]

Changing team is not the same of believing it's not necessary to have one! I don't really know about what happened in between Galvão and Keenan... But let's try to understand so that we can understand if what Caio said is on tune

[@Flo-xi9cg]

Even had to build a gym at home to have proprer training camps, few years ago… changed his mind🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️😂😂😂

[@DividendRaptor]

@Davon Vanstory that was part of it too but he wanted to create his own association as well.

[@sapateirojiujitsuhonolulu5386]

isn't the DLR with the locked hands grip illegal in IBJJF competitions? there is a picture of the exact technique and grip in their rulebook pointing out its illegal. Caio knows what he's talking about so I'm confused here...

[@LukaRBJJ]

It is. But he uses it in a way that the leg is in its natural position and being torqued. I believe if you just pull lateral and pull to expose the back is different. We should investigate.

[@andresmaldonado7356]

He has talented students.

[@JiuJitisuReal]

i stopped at the tenth "you know" haha

[@miguelcandido6962]

O Mussumeci é da acadamia do Caio Terra ?

[@timetter7062]

wow calling out the samurai KC

[@BrunoCAGAS]

3:00 - 3:47 eh assim que um lider fala meu sem enrolação sem gagejar espero um dia treinar ai Oss

[@thefitgm335]

Hey, let me deny my students water, while throwing shade on Keenan. I don't think the person who only eats Snickers and other candy for their meals should be giving life advice.

[@goldtiger808]

Bro- Keenan transcends BJJ, the guy is amazing for the sport. Ask Romulo Barral about that...real people, no BS. Atos has a good vibe, good people- but it was time for him to move on. Good Vibes, roll hard.

[@mism2897]

Terra's speech seemed very cultish. He still seems like a very insecure human being.

[@silahim79]

Wasn't Caio without a team for a long time before he created his?

[@michaellaviola3125]

yea I think he was even training under Cesar Gracie, then left to train with Carlos condit, not sure on all the details tho.

[@diegobattaglia5894]

O Caio Terra foi formado em qual equipe? Alliance?

[@ramon1930]

Brasa.

[@88hopkins]

What’s the black gi Reid has on?

[@thegoldenonethelomo]

its from vhts

[@Josephmgo1]

Has anyone been to a Caio Terra seminar? How was it?

[@joaoluizsn]

There's a lot of feedback on his methodology on Reddit and unfortunately a lot of negative stuff

[@stefanocioni2587]

Amazing videos guys. Come to Sydney some day! Gracie Alexandria. Big gym lots of talent

[@degeemonhansou6698]

I don't think he called out Keenan. I think his point sounded off. Keenan got kicked out of atos. He said he doesn't need a team after fulltime at this point in life. Caio is reminding his team it's about the right fit and to look after each other.

[@FreshFr33ze]

Reed looking like a long boarder. Malibu’s the other way bro 🤙🏼

[@aromero9243]

What happened to Keenan at Worlds? DQ for no show!

[@Hekilikaua]

He posted about it; injured his shoulder against Lo in his absolute match and pulled out of his weight division. He posted about it the night before.

[@aromero9243]

@@Hekilikaua I had no idea black belts could do absolute before their weight division

[@Hekilikaua]

You guys didn't interview Tomoyuki Hashimoto who was training there!

[@degeemonhansou6698]

he doesnt speak english and there's no translator.

[@kevinm2832]

A lot of Yukis guys go to Caio.

That armbar you showed by Hudson when talking about the 50/50 armbar was from SLX, I think. Great shit nonetheless.

[@alexbambamextra]

Not the fist time Caio throws shade at people - when did Keenan said he didn't believe in being part of a team?? SMH

[@ramirospinelli6453]

Mikey has the weirdest frame i ever saw.

[@JPlynnio]

Make road to ADCC

[@FF1542]

Is that weird AL?

[@mitsigan100]

Oh my god after Gui Mendes saying 10 okays per sentence now there is CT saying ''you know''. Maybe when you get your black belt you choose a phrase to repeat over and over.

[@Darren_Tay]

Plenty of people already got dips on Oss as their black belt phrase. I already picked mine, it is the same as Nate Diaz's word replacement for people or humans.

[@elenchus]

it's because people give BBs a lot of space to talk and ramble, and the BBs discover a sudden need to fill in awkward gaps while everyone's listening. I remember when one of the students in my old judo club got his BB and he started developing things like this subconsciously.

[@henriquefrancisco300]

Two portuguese speaking people teaching in english to full grown ups or kids. Thinking on the fly, having to relate and process incoming information from your athletes is no joke. Even english speaking people giving open talks with no crowed interference struggle a bit to either to pace themselves, or to remember a specific word/term, or to study their audience. Now you pick on a brazilian repeating a common phrase over and over. I suppose its your right to do so.

[@hartake6667]

hah dude @7:03 - how scary

[@oilver1980]

Pretty sure that was weird al

[@noturnleftunstoned72]

I don't think Caio is into 'turtles' :)

[@alexeykosorukov112]

it's impossible to listen to Caio for more than 5 seconds, he poorly attempted to give a speech of "wisdom" after stabbing Keenan that went absolutely nowhere and the students were like: wtf is he talking about...

[@ericespinoza5322]

Alexey Kosorukov I was trying to find the message but it just seemed very foggy. Must have been a stabbing at Atos as well.

[@ryang9973]

Ironic that mikey has left now

[@carlosmartin429]

There is no indication that he was talking about Keenan, he was just giving general good advice. And Keenan might not have a specific team, but he has a strong community supporting him and multiple gyms that accept him, thereby he now has a much larger team than before. Loved all the training session vids.

[@anonoumos]

he literally named him 2:20

[@Flo-xi9cg]

Man, caio terra himself changed team many times in brazil, even training at home with guys from tons of teams… Than in the US, also changed because he was teaching at Gracies gym, i don’t blame himself but speaking about someone who can not defent himself in front of students, and you did exactly the same thing in the past… it is kind of weird… Even more nowwhen the Musumeci went out ( who also changed of teams several times)

[@seanmacfarlane3814]

Caio is the man!!

[@jorgearispe6581]

He's definitely wrong at the part of sharing food with a friend. No one like that lol

[@theshiv5288]

So what’s with the host looking more and more like Weird Al Yankovich ?

[@zacharywhite3570]

How do people become work champions, like how do these guys afford to just train jiu jitsu all day everyday

[@joaoluizsn]

Winning brings eyes to their content meaning selling instructionals, sponsorship and fight deals, good investment and the good old teaching classes way also can't be left out

[@nickhaloski8576]

These comments always make me laugh. Everyone knows a better way to train yet how many world champions have you produced? If that’s not your goal great, that is the goal though of everyone in this video. As for the Keenan comment, at CTA the slogan is literally one team. I feel bad you guys don’t know the benefits and comradery of a team. It wasn’t a stab at Keenan it is the principle that CTA is founded on, when the tide rises all boats float. It has nothing to do with being in a cult, he isn’t asking for undying loyalty and cross training is always encouraged

[@whip_pan]

Keenan got kicked because he is drug free and has his own academy... that is online

[@Cosmopolitm]

Everyone needs a team, not a sect

[@matheusmarques7009]

A lot of people getting hurt for Keenan lol. Caio was very respectful and made his point, you guys should stop crying so much

[@alexacosta62]

why did he even make that speech, mikey and tami looked so uncomfortable

[@noturnleftunstoned72]

Terra, you know your past. You are a very difficult person to work / train with. Be cool baby.

[@BadWolfMMANashville]

Why do ppl care if he said something about Keenan. Is Keenan scared of Caio? Keenan is a big boy and can defend himself.

[@johnl6075]

Its disrespectful. And it runs in a lot of BJJ schools. The whole religion/church/cult of BJJ.

[@BadWolfMMANashville]

Nobody knows what went down between them. Oddly enough this isn't the first team that Keenan has left. Oddly enough it's never his fault. I just think it's odd people that are not Keenan are coming to his defense without really knowing what happened. I think the fan boi culture of bjj is worse than the cult culture.

[@elenchus]

@@BadWolfMMANashville It's just KZbinrs commentators that watch videos more than the practice, if they practice at all, with a need to deify their various heroes in order to live vicariously through their victories.

[@BadWolfMMANashville]

elenchus ding ding ding we have a winner!

[@freman75]

Caio's attention to detail is actually crippling for students, there's not only one way to do things, we have to give students the freedom to find what works best for each one of them.

[@Catchsilver007]

Everyone in that gym seems like they are hiding behind an egotistic personality. BJJ is not all about competition, where's the self defense aspect. I believe for you guys to push BJJ forward and to truly respect it, you must respect the true orgin of the sport, the Gracie way.

[@katheryne7700]

Well said 🙌

Some Brazilian bs rant to begin the class.
