      Yeah I went into this video thinking "I bet all Calestine has is leg locks." After that ten seconds I literally thought, "he does not have only leg locks." 😂

    They should probably consider making the featherweight belt a little smaller in the waist. That thing looks like it could fit George Foreman comfortably... just saying.

    I wouldn't say he was a dark horse coming in to this because he is really good but it is cool that the alternate pulled out the win. I'm sure Geo was in the gym the next day already training for the rematch.

    • @bjj_hero
      @bjj_hero  6 лет назад +1

      Still Rolling I agree, but I definitely think he was a dark horse to the mass jiu-jitsu audience. He had a great performance.

    • @StillRolling
      @StillRolling 6 лет назад +1

      BJJ Hero yeah had I not seen him get some big wins in the past I would have been very surprised. Not saying I still wasn't a little. Training partners help make the fighter, no wonder these guys are so good.

    Three comments:
    1. Raphael hasn't won EBI but I ALWAYS think he will. Dude is a demon.
    2. Geo seems like the nicest dude in all of jiujitsu, competing with Marcelo Garcia for niceness champ.
    3. I knew the results from like months ago and I was still nervous watching final match.

  • @pinksupremacy6076
    @pinksupremacy6076 6 лет назад +2

    I think Geo had a tougher draw through out the tournament. This is not taking away from Calestine's amazing performance but Ashley Williams and Domingos were two of the top dogs in this tournament and Geo drew them both. Sometimes it's like that though.

    • @bjj_hero
      @bjj_hero  6 лет назад +1

      I think it was a pretty even draw on both sides. Williams and Domingos are both tough, but I personally think Hayden and Davila were two guys that could have also won on any other day. Specifically Hayden, coming off a great ADCC trials performance this past year where he beat Nicky Ryan among others.

    • @drtyzr2977

      Douglas Gustavsson you do know Eddie himself organized the bracket.... something to think about.

    • @ChrisPagliuca
      @ChrisPagliuca 6 лет назад

      Edwin (Junny) normally competes at 135lbs and won thr Kasai 155lb qualifiers, I believe all matches by sub. He also went to 3 draws at Kasai at 155lbs with Gianni Grippo, Celsius Vinicius and Enrico Cocco. All ADCC vets. Mike Davilla is one of the top guys on the entire east coast, beat Barrett Yoshida last EBI and went to the semi finals for both EBIs he competed in. And Jason Hayden is a savage. Took silver at ADCC trials, subbed Nicky and nearly beat Justin Rader for a spot at ADCC. He also finished Domingos not that long ago. Domingos is legit, and Ashley Williams looked solid, but his last two EBIs he lost first round and Geos first match was some random guy who looked like he had no business being there.

    • @BrandonGiordano
      @BrandonGiordano 6 лет назад +4

      Kilban Kilban Possibly from overtraining? Same shit happens to Cummings. I know from experience sometimes overtraining can weaken your immune system. For someone like Geo who's game involves a lot of movement losing your stamina can have a significant affect.

    • @juanalvarado4720
      @juanalvarado4720 6 лет назад +4

      Geo had the stomach flu and was puking in between matches. Not from overtraining but the flu has been going around badly in the area of the county where he lives.

    why did Ben Eddy fight against Nick Honstein for the bantamweight title at EBI 15? I thought Chad George won the "CJJ worlds" for the Bantamweight title....so it should have been Ben Eddy vs. Chad George at this event.... can someone explain please?

    • @christianadams211
      @christianadams211 6 лет назад

      CJJ and EBI are two different belts more like how there is the world championships and then the Olympics for wrestling or the million different comparisons I could make with fake wrestling their stupid fucking belts.

    • @bjj_hero
      @bjj_hero  6 лет назад

      Nick Honstein was the EBI CJJ Bantamweight champion from winning the inaugural tournament at EBI 11. He beat Chad George in the finals by subbing him with a twister.

    We've been training nothing but leg locks and heel hooks specifically this whole year. While I do know they're incredibly important, especially nowadays, I sure hope the hype dies a quick death; heel hook specialist fights are the most boring fights to see.

      Then stop the leg attack and make it a war?....Don't get me wrong, I love a grinding back and forth battle (this defines most of my own matches) but I'm getting quick finishes and getting paid until someone stops me if that's my game.
