I have just recently started getting more intersted in BJJ. My question is who are the top " pound for pound" grapplers out there right now. I have heard of Roger Gracie, Jacare, Royler, who are some others that can be considered the best? If there is a thread that was done recently a link would be nice.
Roger Gracie Jacare Marcelo Garcia Pe De Pano Andre Galvao Marcio Feitosa Ricardo Veira Daniel Moraes Xande Ribeiro Saulo Ribeiro Royler Gracie Shaolin
i heard of this 3 stripe blue belt who is pretty AWESOME i think his name is Michael "JACARE" Darcy.. hes almost a purple belt with 2 years of training and hes really technical... HAHAHA oh and he is a PIMP
It does say top BJJ players and since Monson mainly competes no gi grappling, while he's still a top name, he's not really a BJJ guy if he doesn't compete in BJJ tournaments. If we were going to include ADCC winners people could add Mark Kerr and I don't think anyone would have considered him a BJJ guy. (he may be retired but so is Saulo these days). We could add in Dean Lister too however again he doesn't compete in a gi these days that often. I'd add Eduardo Telles and Braulio Estima in there.

Why do people keep leaving Leozinho off??? The guy is a perennial Mundial champ and ADCC champ. Let's also add: Fernando "Margarida" Pontes Damien Maia Leo Santos
