Absolute legend! I saw Buchecha commenting on this fight in a podcast and he said he felt he didn't prepare as well as he should have, even as well as he did for the first match. He really felt it after he tried to take Roger down and couldn't. You gotta respect him for doing it in a room so full of Gracies, specially Kyra being the organizer. There is no one like Roger though.

Do you remember what Podcast that was? I want to hear it

He the goat in gi

[@user-gx3wq5kb7j]

And thanks to his I did not prepare he FOREVER be number 2.

[@mrsandhu19801]

Buchecha just won double gold at worlds. He couldn't be any more better prepared. He was at the top of his game!

[@Harambe691]

First gi choke I’ve ever learned. It takes an absolute master of the basics to pull it off at the highest level of competition

[@thewoo205]

This was an “I’m Him” performance if I’ve ever seen one.

[@whoanellynelnel3874]

Roger's head control changed my game, especially to control stronger training partners

[@M4A1MG42]

A well produced and well commentated breakdown. Thanks for the content

“I’m 36… at the end of my career.” Hobbyist starting in his thirties: 🥲

[@ippolea]

Whats even more crazy is the fact that he had his 10th and last world title at 28-29.

[@tommym321]

I was 36 when I started! I’m a black belt now but at 50 years old and a small guy it’s hard af

Youl always be the best ❤❤❤

[@mikeb.7845]

I can't believe it was 7 years ago my man! I remember being so geeked up for days before the match. I knew the pressure got to Buchecha, he never made that blue belt mistake before. All grace to the Gracies. Osss By the way, this decision was pre-planned. BJJ could not allow a Gracie to be an all time #2. Documentary upcoming.

[@koslim]

the greatest ever that stepped on the mats..he is the reason half of us got addicted to bjj...

[@vincespell]

You must be from a younger generation! Royler, Leo Vieira, Shaolin, Fernando Augusto "Terere" De Silva, Jacare Sosa, , Renzo Gracie, Rickson Gracie, Saulo Ribeiro and Fabio Leopoldo Silva (Who personally taught me the Ezekiel Choke) are the ones who inspired me! However Roger Gracie Gomes did carry the sport on his back for awhile!

[@Paul-mq5yn]

he's a class act

[@Macktube]

I wish you also had him break down his 1st match at Metamorris where Buchecha did better

[@Hazama91350]

Roger lost the first one

[@ippolea]

@@Hazama91350 there was no points, officially it was a draw.

Wasn't this in the 80s ?

[@gibbacool2009]

What a disgraceful act the Gracies storming the mat even before the referee lifts Roger’s arm finishing the match …disgraceful behavior by the Gracies as many times before !!!

[@KerryFairbanks]

Agreed, it was pretty rude to crowd the mat as the opponent is literally still recovering from a severe choke

[@ginorodrigues1982]

Fine to acknowledge that, but if so, Let’s also acknowledge that Renzo went to check Buchecha first before any celebrations.

[@Hazama91350]

You lost the first fight "hoger" we all know this

[@MBsr5]

He had Staph and antibiotics the week before the 1st and was verified during that event, still didn't lose. This one he was healthy.

[@renatolaranja52]

And he completely outclassed him the second so who cares

[@cornfedninja]

Whoger?

[@fishingforfun2926]

when the pick him up it took me back to the 90's when this happened all the time.
