The sweep at 7:40 was so impressive.

[@Malouco]

C.Duncan Sutherland I like braulio at 3:40

[@monkeyx17]

holy shit that was amazing

[@yevgeniyzharinov7473]

I hardly find that particularly impressive.

[@alexcheloo786]

i'd like to see you land that sweep on a world class black belt.

[@ibrahimhakan]

Tried this on bleu belt bb judoka almost worked. He was shocked as he normally never get sweeped even from upper belts.

[@tenshunn]

Its rare you get to see Marcelo under such good pressure and passing attempts. Lovato is a stud and does a great job of hanging with the p4p goat.

[@TheAverageGrappler]

I love how never ending jiu-jitsu is. I watched this right when it came out and missed so much. Watching it again, and its blowing my mind.

[@RikTikkety]

The second I saw that sweep at 7:38 I stopped watching and came to the comment section. I knew that's all people would be talking about. Marcello is fkn ridiculously good.

[@naldebol]

I still have night mares about it. I call them nightmares because they just keep happening and I wake up. I hate that.

[@manson8866]

Ha! no shit thats exactly what i did. except i rewound it a few times first

[@oo1602]

Read my mind

[@jon-umber]

HAHA same here. Was going to mention it with a timestamp if I hadn't read your comment first.

[@andersonsilvaelonmusk364]

Me too,exactly

[@awfully.average]

It's very good to see that RLJ uses every step in his passing DVD

[@alexcochrane5815]

This was AMAZING. Both Lavato and Garcia. Another Level.

[@TheArtofGuitar]

I've never seen Marcelo work so hard. Bravo!

[@rufioswitch2132]

Against a heavyweight black belt world champ 😂

[@Presence_o_Mind]

2:50 and 7:30! Wooooooohh!!! 3:50 was tight too! Such technique shown by these two living legends of the art.

[@bodyzone360]

Wow the pressure by Lovato is amazing

[@jonathanhernandez3292]

Rafael was really making Marcelo work hard for it. Very technical

[@ChristopherOden]

Re-watching this now as a black belt, and there are so many subtle movements that I missed when I first saw this footage!

[@Kmartee]

I like that you linked to another video so we could see the sweep, that's a true hero move man

[@mandownog]

Sick! Madd respect for both guys. MG still a beast, nice to see Jr's game evolve

[@rc1096]

Don't see Marcelo in deep half very often. cool roll

[@paolo2012]

Gained a ton of respect for this guy lovato...how impressive was this

[@bk3896]

This is what I love about BJJ, you can find the best in the world, rolling with the best in the world on any given day.

[@jasongoyer]

I love both of these guys styles. Two of my favorites.

[@abadinis3420]

I think I had to watch that Baseball Slide Hook Sweep about a dozen times. Really nice!

[@marcuseverettebjj1049]

beautiful display of BJJ

[@Zionsol777]

now that is some hi quality BJJ the sweep by Lovato at 3:45 was awesome as was Marcelo's at 7:40 I'm only a blue belt, but I can recognize greatness...

[@paolo2012]

Marcelo started turning it up in the second half...these sweeps he's hitting are so sick, esp the one in 7:40

[@titantowingrecoveryllc4092]

Manne Feroz on Fri ko òiquu1u8uu21u1u you 88 ok i u8akwjii ik I 8ii km wiuuujuyuu

[@selfcensorship]

Lovato was just rollin' as usual...he's pretty chill during most of the match.

[@hillerm]

Wow, a bunch of nice sweeps.

[@rojofish504]

Maaaaaaan! What a great roll. Both of these guys are great. Would be a privilege to learn bjj from either

[@jeremiahharper8059]

This is about as outstanding as it gets.

[@curtis8559]

That was awesome!

[@mrmeeks85]

Awesome, thanks for this

[@scottnelson7256]

Awesome Video!! Two Legends!!

[@NicktheBlkBlt]

The man, the legend.

[@garyking4032]

Great to see guys at this level rolling together :)

[@grakkerful]

That was beautiful. God damn.

[@natanaelitinho]

I can't believe there's actually people who dislike this video

[@yevgeniyzharinov7473]

i can

[@danielolivares6814]

That sweep at 7:40!

[@joopsnoop]

+Daniel Olivares I was about to type the exact same words as you wrote and saw your comment. :) Very sweet.

[@andremudinbjjduarte]

Very good!!!👏👏👏👏👏

[@rolandotoroacuna]

Marcelino Grande Mestre. dez. obrigado pela luta.

[@tim707max]

Song name?

[@blaneries8925]

dominik cruz will dethrone conor lmao

[@artesuave8018]

HAHAHA! christ that was funny

[@vrk3315]

Geniuses at work!

[@TonyFernandezjkdjedi]

What a match, any love for Lovatos mounting of Garcia within the first minute?

[@Niko-Marino]

Hell yeah! Thats my prof.

[@GiuseppeMandaglio]

Fantastico!

[@nathanjones2363]

Thats as high end as jiu jitsu gets. Marcelo is a god. Bare in mind lovato is still actively competing. Garcia basically a full time teacher and prob could still dominate most of the high end competitors

[@mustafau6508]

Nathan Jones Khabib will tap him out

[@mustafau6508]

GordonFreeman if you have nothing nice to say or nothing constructive to say then don't say anything at all our minds are too calm for the storm of your hatred

[@NinjaWarriorDude416]

I never seen that weep at 3:45 before. I had the honor of doing some MMA rounds with Lovato.... once he got me on my back.. or even on his back.. it was over :( He actually started off boxing before he did BJJ. Congrats on your recent MMA wins, Lovato. Osss!!!

[@del1000005]

Wow...perfection in grappling.

[@Mangustoafg]

Muito Bom treino. raros conseguem treinar assim Co MG.

[@ProtoAlphaDog]

Anyone else notice the head fake right before the sweep? He’s incredible at hiding his moves.

[@kozerkf]

Really good video both are great fighter.

[@denverstapleton7621]

this is sweet!! Lovato looks like Van Damm lol

[@Crinjoso]

Marcelo es mucho Marcelo!!!!💪💪💪💪

[@camillo1234]

why dont they publish the clip where naranja submits him twice ?

[@muthafookerable]

forever...

[@plcoelho]

8:13 - Roll to guard....flawless...

[@comardelgado]

Lovato is no joke!!

[@rafaelleocadio8471]

Alto nível

[@Darrand101]

i could watch this for hours

[@lange1512]

Art.

[@joealias2594]

It's so impressive how Marcelo is able to stay steady against someone whose arms and legs are so much longer than his. I often feel like he looks at 8:27 ish, all tied up by the other guy. I'll have to try to channel him next time.

[@gabrielm622]

Two of my favorite grapplers here!

[@joopsnoop]

+Gabriel Montoya For me, not two of, but THE two.

[@Presence_o_Mind]

+joopsnoop Definitely! The are my two top favorites, as well. Just amazing and inspiring practitioners.

[@wrm215]

thanks for next lesson from marcelo :)

[@Bluelaker81]

cool to see him attempt it.

[@saviour29]

very well said. . . this is true. . .

[@eifelitorn]

give MG some love @ that hook sweep at 6:20

[@Zaffe123]

What's the name of the music?

[@markbullock1636]

Sick vid.

[@nicholascamacho5852]

the x guard sweep! sick

[@christianhartig2938]

What a clinic in technique

[@Pabloosiro]

Level: God.

[@HerreraCam]

JiuJitsu Excellence right there. That damn MG, though.

[@crocfixio]

jesus christ that sweep at 7:42..mg is god !!

[@drumtravelfun]

God. Damn.

[@mubarkqardas46]

Hey Rafael what happened to your pressure passing system here? :o

[@whatsupbrown]

Nice...

[@LorenaBittencourt32]

I love Marcelo ...very good Jiu Jitsu

[@hypekillacsplaya]

i just started jiu jitsu, how long your hands stay sore for??

[@markjohnson4688]

What weight classes are these two?

[@HelloJapan05]

Lovato is awesome

[@ameliatom999]

7:38 and sequence there after is amazing!!!

[@ironwill4706]

Got to see them compete in Houston tourney in a 4 -man ... yes of course MG won

[@ffbarnette]

So I certainly liked the sweep at 740 but what kept Rafael from posting at 622? just the speed at which Marcello was sweeping, maybe Rafael was keeping it playful, did Marcello have some way of stopping the left hand. just trying to figure it out I use a lot of the arm drag grip but I never sweep that direction

[@PandarenMaster]

Marcelo is keeping it playful, if you watch their match Marcelo 14 - 0 then submits him at the end with arm bar. Lovato did not let go of the gi to post on that sweep at 6:22

[@mason2376]

it looks like rafael's left hand had possibly gripping marcelo's right lapel, marcelo went for the sweep in that split second and rafael couldn't post. It's hard to see this at the first angle, but once marcelo is on top you can see Rafael's left hand gripping the right lapel.

[@mason2376]

and marcelo swept rafael to rafael's left. this made it difficult for him to post his hand and have structure to achieve base. He posted on his elbow briefly with the grip in his hand, but the momentum for the sweep at this point was already too much. this just shows how high level they truly are, tooth and nail right up until the sweep, pass, back take, or submission is achieved.

[@counterhit121]

Looked like a check sweep at first and once Marcelo saw that Rafael was so committed to that top grip that he didn't respond to the check, he went through with it.

[@daniyarlessov5606]

High level

[@Presence_o_Mind]

Is it just my phone or is this video muted?

[@kwak76]

never took bjj but quick question is common for them to start rolling form the ground? Why not start standing and go for take downs?

[@tempesta1229]

space and potential for injuries.

[@MYKOSS1]

Sweep at 7:38 is just beautiful to watch!

[@IamJacksColon4]

no sound?

[@Nees1]

sound?

[@3Daver]

@5:55 Marcelo is like "fuck this belt GAME ON"

[@bingowoohoo]

!!! flying butterfly sweep! haha

[@mattmgarza]

We al know Marcelo is amazing, but this Lovato Jr. guy, I'm not familiar with him, but he's amazing in his own right.

[@mikejohnson7768]

The leverage advantage that lovato has!

[@laistar]

Anyone know what gi Rafael is wearing? Sick gi.

[@scnarb]

It's incredible watching these guys roll, even after a few years of consistent training, as a decent blue I can barely follow most of what they're doing. As for the gi, it makes your escapes better and increases your overall awareness and ability to feel things. Your guard will improve with gi work. It's not required to be a great grappler but it has it's benefits. Plus it's great for the street.

[@bravesirgallahad]

Yeah definitely helps develop escapes with the friction involved

[@bravesirgallahad]

Are you still training 7 years later?

[@subzero6190]

I would like to see Marcelo Garcia handling/rolling kabibh

[@milothomas4266]

Wow

[@carlosalvesassejur]

Raspada, passagem de guarda e joelho na barriga no final do treino. Marcelino sinistro.

[@sylver76]

Marcelo's classes run $200/month (1 year agreement) but space in NYC is very very expensive, especially considering that MG is right next to time square.

[@andreamarchetti3917]

cool

[@RainstormOfPiss]

No sound?

[@ratherbesurfing1865]

wikid man!!

[@drmgnmlk2]

i thought the same!

[@ajones68]

Thats my bread and butter! love it.

[@rivercityninjas]

Wow that was wild I just love watching these all stars move on the ground. I think my jitz got one stripe better just from watching them

[@Vaios1981]

wow
