One of my fav bjj practitioners, and it's great he really is an intelligent fighter when it comes to things like MMA.. Being interviewed by onthemat.com :Robert about the new gym at Xtreme Couture and his new MMA career. http://onthemat.com/video/watch/7c759bf4fc791ba842aa/Robert-Drysdale-Interview <****** width=395 height=370 frameborder=0 border=0 scrolling=no src=http://onthemat.com/video/embed.php?video=453></******>
I wonder how he is going to do in MMA... He's extremely good from the top and bottom and has a whole series of submissions alot of grapplers tend not to use as often eg Brabos, drop guillotines, body lock.. I'm hoping he makes some waves!!!
Anyone notice his accent is essentially gone? Makes me wonder which one is real, the brazilian or the american one.
Yeah it is totally gone, it wasn't overly thick in his instructional, but it was there. I can attest that living in a new place for any period longer than 6 months can affect your accent, I lived in Canada for a year and a half, and I totally started to sound Canuck with the Eh and all that... Also I lived in Taiwan for a year and my accent changed there too.
