there was a recent thread where someone claimed ADCC grapplers would smoke sambists. some of sherdog's finest chimed in. lulz

In BJJ they would.

2005? so he is taping a 40 year old? impressive.

Regardless of his age that is still pretty impressive.

I don't even recognize khabib in that video let alone viera, it's very short.

 

[Slatersan]

The AKA bjj coach is leandro vieira not leonardo. leandro did not win any adcc titles.

 

[Sir Punchalot]

Khabib is the type of guy that makes you feel happy you're not a UFC fighter in the 155 lbs division.

Khabib is terrified to compete in grappling, meanwhile GSP jumped at the opportunity to take on D1 All-American Otto Olso.

Vieira won gold at 2005 ADCC so shut the fuck up

That’s Leandro Vieira, not Leozinho.

He’s still a 3rd degree BB, but different pedigree

 

[BROWNPRIDE]

The eagle is just one of the most impressive mofos ever!

Lol wrong leo bud

Most sambo fighters go into MMA instead of grappling tournements. When Khabib did a BJJ tournement he won.

LOL the UFC lightweight champion in his prime tapped a 40 years old full time professor bjj guy and now sambo is the ultimate martial art because of that. Put Khabib against gordon ryan or kaynan duarte in a grappling match adcc rules and let's see who takes it
