[@jorgepaulobarrelinfilho8476]

7:25 foi épico...

[@jrowlandj]

Love to see the show of respect at the end of the match. These two men are top-tier competitors, both want to win so badly. Afterwards though, is time to show you are a man. Much admiration and respect.

[@frostymourne]

Good fight. Good throws. Nice stand up. This is where the cross training of Bjj and judo really shines.

[@gund360]

muito boa a transmissão, obrigado.

[@thebuzzcjc]

2 of the BEST! I love watching either of these guys..

[@alexkellyrodrigues]

2020.... acho q foi umas das lutas mais duras do Rodolfo Dois monstros ..

[@fernandomarques3297]

[@mzambo666]

the 2 of them are just masterful fighters...Thanks for the upload.

[@brotendo]

10 more seconds and Xande would've had the points for passing. Damn.

[@rodmachado171]

[@RafaelRamos-kq2hy]

Altíssimo nível !!!!!

[@jodylowe8476]

Two of my fav GOATS

[@PauloBerni699]

Excellent comments. Everyone I knew in judo who gave BJJ a real go, meaning more than just an occasional visit, never returned to regular judo training, myself included. I think most of us came to the same conclusion you wrote in your 100 percent-correct assessment.

[@enialio]

puro spettacolo!!due campioni!

[@diegoromerosoutobrasileiro8304]

Única coisa chata é a galera gritando Xandi o tempo todo véi kkkkk ! São 2 feras ae !

[@egorredstarbjj1158]

DOPE! I think some fans of Xande filmed it

2 Monstros

I'm very impressed about the level of respect they give to each other, I'm proud of being a jiujitsu athlete

[@vozdaesperanca5325]

[@judgedredd7533]

Very good fight!

[@slick222]

Monsters. Xande needed 20 more seconds to finish the pass! Rodolfo is one of the GOATs!

[@Kumagai1976]

[@HAHUAHUAH]

Cara que giro foi aquele 7:01-7:04 Tenho que aprender JJ show demais!

[@visceral_mente_falando]

Xande Ribeiro é um monstro

[@dailywakeup69]

I love the respect towards these guys

[@aurojunior]

Caralho... como luta esse Xande!!

[@JohnRaymondWilliams]

about them both being BB's in judo, what's your source?

[@jnspinola]

Epic fight!

[@maxnogueirajunior]

2 Feras

[@DettoniLopes]

Que guerra fudida! Good match!

[@Voodoofreak35]

I love their style of Jiujitsu: no guard pulling or playing the 50/50 position. Always start the fight standing up and trying to establish a dominant position by throwing and then go to the ground.

[@piotrnoname3269]

Chad Lin guard pulling only for pusses

[@jeje80001]

very good

[@nerraw2b]

The sequence from 7:01 to 7:20 was sick!

[@luissoares3430]

Só os brutos 😝 oss

[@lucassicilianoabv]

Qual nome dessa queda que o rodolfo usou?

[@aurojunior]

mais 10!

[@bornfedslaughter]

Lets go shongee

[@anarchic_ramblings]

You might also note that the whole concept of the 'black belt' is an invention of Jigoro Kano's. There is no universal law that means that wearing a black-coloured obi has to mean you're an expert. At the Kodokan (where the 'kuro-obi' originated) achieving the level of shodan (1st degree Black belt) merely signifies proficiency. It's roughly equivalent to a BJJ blue belt. Have you ever studied judo? What level is your bjj out of interest?

[@anarchic_ramblings]

Yes, there are such rules in Judo competition, which mainly exist to penalize passivity (note that passivity penalties also apply in BJJ). The leg touching rule is a very recent addition to IJF comp rules and only applies to direct attacks, not counters and combos. And yes, I think guys who are experienced in nagewaza and less expert in newaza will generally not pull guard in BJJ comps. Check out Koji Komuro and Dave and Dan Camarillo who all bring high-level judo into BJJ competitions.

[@hoppy760]

the guys at this level have their own students and followers in the crowds.

[@alexkellyrodrigues]

rodolfo fodastico sou seu fa cara

[@andrecarlos1100]

Dois monstros do jiujítsu.

[@Madmac79]

[@enomtramos]

Rodolfo vieira e o melhor!! Samos gfteam de sangue parceiro!!

[@rafaeltupinamba8187]

Rodolfo vc é top!! Até mesmo na humildade!

[@adrianocorreia1643]

Show de fight

[@carlosescoto6941]

That was crazy when xande landed on his feet to prevent the 2 pointer from the butterfly sweep of his opponent

[@iistyleszii]

Carlos Escoto they still get an advantage

[@adrianocorreia1643]

Luta linda sem amarraçao esse sim bjj.

[@Nfahred]

What is the name of the judo throw at 2:43??

[@Lana17082000]

seoi-nague muitoo lindo!

[@Smoochy44]

I'm not certain, but I'm pretty sure the people near the cameraman were rooting for Xande Ribeiro...

[@frostymourne]

@ericc2 I know that BJJ do includes Judo throws for BJJ, if you're telling me indirectly that BJJ's throws are as competent as Judo's is like saying Judokas should be dominating all these tournaments, if you're telling me that these 2 are not Judokas either that's wrong too, both of them are BJJers and Judokas, they have belts in both martial arts. But no, the Judokas dominate in Judo matches and the BJJ players dominate in these matches, my point is a cross training in Judo and BJJ will result in the BJJer with a stronger take down game. To perform throws like this requires a hell lot of training from Judo, there are many Judo throws in competition which aren't clean either, like drop throws etc etc. It's obvious Both of them cross trains in Judo. Have you watched Xande's video where he Randori with one of Tenri's best Judoka? The reason why both stand up because they know a good throw would get them ontop without having the hassle of passing guard, and this match proves it. That a combination of BJJ, Judo and whatever wrestling they cross trained results in this.

[@vinigm]

Thank you

[@piotrnoname3269]

Roy Muk In my bjj gym we are training Judo and wrestling techniques.

[@Maximums300]

linda luta, a forma com que os dois lutaram foi ecepscional, porem, rodolfo ribeiro atualmente é na minha opnião o melhor lutador de jiu-jitsu que há :) ele se destaca entre os meus favoritos, que são: Ramon lemos, andré galvão, RODOLFO VIEIRA e não podendo faltar membros da familia gracie Rickson e mestre Helio Gracie.

[@jiujitero18]

Os dois estão de parabéns ! Uma verdadeira aula de jiu-jitsu, porém MAS UM MINUTINHO E O RODOLFO TAVA FRITO EM ! Mas, regra é regra !

[@paulcarrola]

Lets go Shawn Gee!

[@pauloamorim3924]

Rodolfo vieira é um trator cara é monstro

[@zoinnbjj4607]

AONDE GFTeam Passa faz show

[@D1ieg0]

Rodolfo é fantastico , quando ele quer entra em queda ele entra e leva !!

[@JIUJITSUMX]

i want to see Rodolfo vs Roger Gracie it would be an epic fight

[@anonymousreviewer169]

7 years later, and still no match-up between the two. What a loss for the world.

[@dastrn]

Great match. The proper winner is Xande, but the advantages were given out to liberally to Vieira in those throws. Anyone can see that 5 or 10 seconds more would have meant points for passing the guard for Xande. Still, great match, and my hat's off to both of them.

[@kamananui1]

good gosh..probably his white belt students that just joined the class and think they are his best friends..."Xande can i take your go home and wash it for you"?

[@tiagoliberatimoreira9558]

que luta dura Rodolfo muito forte xandi Guerreiro o Rodolfo teve muita sorte se tive se mais 10segundos iria pontua a passagem de guarda

[@marcioassis1612]

Fora que o juíz inventou a queda para o Rodolfo, convenhamos, aquilo não foi queda nunca.

[@MarcosDaniel-cl8ss]

Gostei da umildade dos dois

[@teekay201]

did they not award the guard pass because time expired?

[@csbarman]

Xande and Rodolfo are Black Belts on JUDO FYI

[@ruyjose6015]

Americano torcendo é uma m...kkkkk! Só..."Xandiii"...kkkkk Brasileiro é o Rei da ginga mesmo!

[@thos1618]

Coach told me Xande hasn't had his guard passed in 15 years. Immediately put in Xande vs Rodolfo VIerira to see if the claim is true.

[@36424567254]

tbh the claim is kind of meaningless if you turtle and end up giving up your back rather than accepting your guard got passed, like many competitors do.

[@luizcalvacanti6937]

Rodolfo is so explosive and such a beast. Juat beat Xande is really big deal!

[@lucasaves]

rodolfo é foda demaais!!!!

[@TeeteringBulb]

Damn, that was close!

[@sukiyaLocal]

Love this sequence 7:18

[@christaylor920]

30 more seconds and Xande would have had that pass. Incredible match.

[@anarchic_ramblings]

Probably because nagewaza is way harder than newaza! I do both and there can be no doubt that learning ground-fighting is a lot easier and less frustrating than learning to throw. Plus it's hard to find good judo clubs outside Japan. And all that stuff about stalling and illegal grips is while true, doesn't mean jack. All the guys at my gym do that and I throw them around easily.

[@lisandroleite8044]

Rodolfo é Muito Monstro.

[@ristrofone4878]

caraca olha a queda que o cara deu

[@c0mputergenius7]

the mat space looks bigger than normal

[@diego85749]

como é o nome da queda usado em 2:42 ???

[@joelsongaldino5089]

Morote seoi nage!

[@eumaia777]

Bonito de vê o Xande rolando, joga justinho, o Rodolfo ganhou por causa das quedas no começo, se tivesse mais 3 minutos o Xande tinha passado a guarda e levado luta!!!

[@victornascimento363]

Qual é essa queda?

[@Engenheiro.michel.sousaa]

Morote seoi nage

[@augustomma2008]

Xande foi o pé no saco do Roger e o Rodolfo o pé no saco do bochecha,estilos muito identicos!

[@pablochallenger5014]

GFTeam 4ever !

[@ETiDeQuenVesSendo]

is pulling guard forbiden or they just liked the standing game?

[@Delta3angle]

Lluvia_Mmf Would you want to be under either of them? Two of the best passers in the sport, neither wanted to play guard.

[@ETiDeQuenVesSendo]

NDNguitarguy i dindn't know that both players' technique is passing guard- thank you
