This is a mini-doc from six years ago that a couple friends and associates of mine did on Joe Taimanglo. Heading into his match with Caldwell it's quite obvious very few stateside fans knew just how formidable he is and how skilled he is at submission grappling and BJJ. This doc is more of an insight into his personal background and humble beginnings but it delves a little into his BJJ pedigree too. The guy is a Pan-Asian Games BJJ Gold medalist and BJJ brown belt. The fact that so many people were surprised that he could catch a wrestler (albeit an elite one) like Caldwell in something slick actually surprises me. I always knew if he was gonna win, it would be by KO or submission.
