Clayton Jones Lovato is not even close to being one of the best black belts to ever compete.. just maybe one of the best American black belts out there.
Rafael KNEW that Roger would go for the cross choke. His coaches, partners and friends knew it. The whole arena knew that. Everybody on Stream watching knew it. Hell, even Grandma Ingrid in Italy, who doesn't even watch BJJ, knew it. But still, Roger was able to use the attack and pull it off. THAT is a well trained tecnique. Irresistable and straight forward. I really like the mind set that is required for this kind of determination.
His technique is obviously top notch. However everyone overlooks that it's his physical body properties that allow him to succeed at it. Listen to Nicolas Gregoriades talk about it.
My professor is a Roger black belt and his former head instructor for several years, and he says the same thing. Roger came to town recently and we got to train and have dinner with him. My wife might be in love with him. 😅 I'm 6'3" and Roger makes me feel small and weak. But he's a super nice guy.
For real. Man, this comment is so accurate. Cross choke, even just the Gi grab early on, the half guard, it's basic but his form is excellent. I honestly think this is worth watching daily
Acho que alguns vão odiar meu comentário, mas direi; Hoje é dificil assistir uma luta como as do Roger Gracie. Hoje é vantagem e queda e amarrar até o final do tempo. A tranquilidade que Roger gracie faz em suas lutas, o básico do jiu-jitsu, enche os olhos de nos amantes e praticantes. Roger gracie, o melhor de todos os tempos. Oss

Amazing how simple he can make the game look. Oh yeah, just take down, pass, leisurely step over to mount and then cross choke RAFAEL LOVATO JR. Like, what.
There's a bit of size advantage involved. Just like when Roger Gracie and Drysdale just ran through Marcelo Garcia like he was a small speed bump. Garcia is prob considered one of the best, but the size difference was just too much to overcome.
I have seen videos of Rafael Lovato Jr. tapping other black belts in tournaments with collar chokes. Then here's a video of it happening to him. As Joe Rogan would say, there are levels to this. Very impressive. Hard to wrap your mind around as a white belt (which I am)!
Sort of. The cross choke you can learn on day one. But the base, balance, patience and knowledge to know what to shut down first and how to stay out of an elite level opponent's guard takes years and years to learn, let alone master the way Roger did. So yes he used day one techniques but also a bunch of other invisible techniques that make his opponent look less skilles then they are.
@@KlgoDomingoOrtiz The main differences between judo and bjj are the scoring, allowed and disallowed techniques, and whether opponents are stood up by the ref. Listing the Japanese names of techniques doesn't make anything about either sport better or worse than the other. It's just weird elitism.
This was at the start of Roger's amazing run during the 2009 and 2010 IBJJF Mundials. He went 2 straight years without losing, going 15-0. Amazing thing is that he submitted EVERYONE except for 2 matches. Romulo had to bow out due to injury in the 2010 Absolute final and Demente lasted the full 10 minutes in the 2010 Super Heavy final, losing on points 13-2. The other 13 ended by submission and I want to say that at least 10 of those were all chokes from the mount. One of the most amazing runs I've ever witnessed.
Alex Wintermantel he’s like Magnus Carlson and chess, he’s purely academic with it and can see so far ahead with his juijutsu that it’s like playing a game, there’s no risk or excitement as he’s played it so much and knows the motions that there aren’t many people who can submit him competitively.
Hes been on the maths for 40 years now, thats just a lightwork to him... this man literally dedicated all his life to this, no pressure, no fear, he simply knows that he gonna win... its strange tbh
Tinha uma faixa marrom aqui na academia que ganhava de todo mundo aqui, ele foi rolar com o Roger na Austrália e o Roger fez ele parecer um faixa branca, finalizou ele umas 5 vezes em 3 minutos, isso no cara mais duro da academia.
Roger is the GOAT. One of leas than a handful who beat Marcelo Garcia and no sign of slowing down. Lovato is one of the top BJJ teachers and competitors. Roger also beat Galvao...Buchecha...list goes on. Would love to see him though I doubt it will ever happen in NoGi vs Gordan Ryan.
I trained w/ Roger regularly and submitted him twice out 5 times. He did win the other 3 matches. Roger is the name of my MMA / BJJ practice dummy, he has a sneaky rubber guard.
I think some people over look Rogers size advantage. When technique and skill are close. Size can make a big difference. Roll with someone only 15-20lbs bigger in muscle. You will feel a very significant advatage in strength and power. One factor in his sucess is he usually has the size advantage. He's very skilled and technical. Just saying his size must help him out power opponents.
Roger is a little terrifying in his calm relentlessness. He reminds me a bit of Yoel Romero. Just so calm and skilled he can walk right at you and you dont want to touch him.
I'm a white belt, this is really helpful. You take them down, then mount and then choke. Got it. My coach has been wasting our time with all these other moves...
Coming from a judo guy its nice to see an actual takedown and not just fall on your ass..and also to see roger actually control his opponent first then go for submission..just that mount alone would be almost impossible to get out
In the final of the jiu-jitsu championship, Xande Ribeiro got his revenge and beat Roger. Xande said that Roger smiled when they announced his victory against Lovatto, then this made Xande furious, and he said to himself that Roger Gracie would only beat him if he killed him. Xande win.
The moves are being described as "basics". I would say they are the fundamentals. Roger has dissected these moves into micromovements and perfected them. You should watch John Danahar's clip where he says that "Roger Gracie is the best traditional BJJ practitioner ever". I truly believe that he would have even won over Rickson.
Watching Roger is like when the agent in the matrix says “hear that? That is the sound of inevitability”.. except Neo does get hit by the train 😂. Everyone ends the same with Roger
Rafael is one of the best black belts to ever compete, and Roger just casually mounts and cross chokes him. My jiu-jitsu sucks, lmao
Clayton Jones Lovato is not even close to being one of the best black belts to ever compete.. just maybe one of the best American black belts out there.
@@jitsuNaja just look at his competition and you can see why I would say that. He isn't the best, but he is part of a very small circle of elites
Lovato is an elite guy no doubt. Current bellator middle champ.. The guys a legend.
To me that's what makes Roger the best, he makes rolling aginst other world class athletes look easy
Mind you JACARE SOUZA is considerably smaller than those guys and managed to get the W over Roger twice.
Rafael KNEW that Roger would go for the cross choke.
His coaches, partners and friends knew it.
The whole arena knew that.
Everybody on Stream watching knew it.
Hell, even Grandma Ingrid in Italy, who doesn't even watch BJJ, knew it.
But still, Roger was able to use the attack and pull it off. THAT is a well trained tecnique. Irresistable and straight forward.
I really like the mind set that is required for this kind of determination.
2009? Stream?
Ingrid isn't that very italian name
Grandma Ingrid is the real OG!
@@RylzMunkister it's a joke, bro w
His technique is obviously top notch. However everyone overlooks that it's his physical body properties that allow him to succeed at it. Listen to Nicolas Gregoriades talk about it.
The lesson I take away from this match; you can NEVER practice the basics enough.
My professor is a Roger black belt and his former head instructor for several years, and he says the same thing. Roger came to town recently and we got to train and have dinner with him. My wife might be in love with him. 😅 I'm 6'3" and Roger makes me feel small and weak. But he's a super nice guy.

virou judo
Concordo
Roger was the best representation of the Gracies.
Amazing how simple he can make the game look. Oh yeah, just take down, pass, leisurely step over to mount and then cross choke RAFAEL LOVATO JR. Like, what.
If he were 50 pounds lighter he wouldn't have made it look so easy.
@@hubster4477 That's a lot of lbs
There's a bit of size advantage involved. Just like when Roger Gracie and Drysdale just ran through Marcelo Garcia like he was a small speed bump. Garcia is prob considered one of the best, but the size difference was just too much to overcome.
Lovato was heavy weight, Roger was super heavy so not a massive difference 🤔
I don't know what the exact weights were, but Roger looks a lot bigger, stronger. Good big guys usually beat good smaller guys.
He just beat Lovato with what you get taught on day one
My instructor called this choke first one to learn last one to master
I have seen videos of Rafael Lovato Jr. tapping other black belts in tournaments with collar chokes. Then here's a video of it happening to him. As Joe Rogan would say, there are levels to this. Very impressive. Hard to wrap your mind around as a white belt (which I am)!
My opinion: he breaks down the most basic techniques to the finest details. All his basics are done to perfection which makes him lethal.
Simply the Best - Lovato, JR is amazing, and look at Roger handle him...wow!
Sort of. The cross choke you can learn on day one. But the base, balance, patience and knowledge to know what to shut down first and how to stay out of an elite level opponent's guard takes years and years to learn, let alone master the way Roger did.

When people ask “what is fundamental jiujitsu?” Send them this link. That control Roger has is ridiculous.
His stand up striking , into a move/takedown is incredibly smooth as well.
The fundamentales of bjj is judo, this match was kumikata, tachiwaza (ashiwaza) and osaekomi, to finalally get jimewaza
Very impressive. That doesn’t happen to Lovato very often.
Domingo Ortiz the takedown looked like deashi harai to me
@@KlgoDomingoOrtiz The main differences between judo and bjj are the scoring, allowed and disallowed techniques, and whether opponents are stood up by the ref. Listing the Japanese names of techniques doesn't make anything about either sport better or worse than the other. It's just weird elitism.
Lovato is a world class bjj practitioner that I respect and Roger made this match look easy... Roger really was one of the best to do it.
Tyler Goodrich crazy that he can finish guys like that with cross collar chokes. That’s day one white belt submissions right there.
This was at the start of Roger's amazing run during the 2009 and 2010 IBJJF Mundials. He went 2 straight years without losing, going 15-0.

His mount is the best. Simple and effective old school bjj
Love roger’s jiu Jitsu. Everyone knows exactly what he’s going to do but know one can stop it
its like see your deth coming, but nothing to make
Roger expects to win ever time. Almost looks like he is annoyed by the sport
hahahahaha that's the face exactly.
He doesn't look like hes happy to win. Kinda pisses me off a bit
Alex Wintermantel he’s like Magnus Carlson and chess, he’s purely academic with it and can see so far ahead with his juijutsu that it’s like playing a game, there’s no risk or excitement as he’s played it so much and knows the motions that there aren’t many people who can submit him competitively.
I thought it was just me. He looks like, naw I really don’t wanna be here, my Mom drag me out the house. So I’ll just destroy everyone for fun.
Hes been on the maths for 40 years now, thats just a lightwork to him... this man literally dedicated all his life to this, no pressure, no fear, he simply knows that he gonna win... its strange tbh

É impressionante como um faixa preta de qualidade não consegue fazer nada contra o Roger. O cara é monstro mesmo. O melhor que já existiu sem duvidas
Reminds me of my first day. Hanging on for dear life.
He makes it look so simple to submit one of the greatest grapplers ever. Absolutely extraordinary.
The true GOAT.
Jiu-jítsu raiz, e simplesmente eficiente! Roger Gracie, simplesmente perfeito. Oss
A takedown straight from the judo yellow belt level. Because it works.
Even if sasae it's simple, the timing it's perfect, Roger Gracie Judo it's excellent too.
No such thing as yellow belt technique.. they are all black belt techniques, the belt is your understanding level of it. Mastery.
Sr. D I think it was ashi barai not sasae since sasae u sweep the front of the foot not the side
Roger era o mais brabo, uma pena que parou de competir
A calma e cautela com que ele defende e ataca é impressionante.
Isso é Jiu-jitsu, finalização, Oss Mestrão Roger
O cara sabe tudo que o Roger vai fazer mas ele é tão preciso que não tem como evitar
@@natanneto9855 pôs é, como pode isso?
@@carlosalvesassejurnão sei. A técnica do Roger é muito apurada. Até um faixa branca sabia o que o Roger ia fazer ali.
This is an amazing performance because Raphael Lovato Jr is a fucking good jiujitsu guy. He’s one of the best of his entire generation.
A calma do Roger é impressionante. Já ganhou ali
The level of confidence Roger has is just out of this world ☠️
The best of the best. Beautiful simple and effective bjj. Roger is a real legend and an inspiration for bjj practitioners
Undisputed GOAT... crazy what he was able to do to top level black belts
Simply the best
Hespect, Hoger. They way he walks after submitting RLJR.. UTTER SAVAGERY
He's the heal deal
Obrigado
Makes it look so easy.
Lovato is one of my heroes. I'm sure even he'd admit that it was a "what can ya do?" type of situation with Roger. Damn!
Que aula...derrubou, foi dando pressao, sem pressa, sem.firula, do jeito que tem que ser
Made a world class beast look very ordinary
Roger is the GOAT. One of leas than a handful who beat Marcelo Garcia and no sign of slowing down. Lovato is one of the top BJJ teachers and competitors. Roger also beat Galvao...Buchecha...list goes on. Would love to see him though I doubt it will ever happen in NoGi vs Gordan Ryan.
Simples e eficiente! Sem frescura de berimbolo!
I grappled with Rafael back when he was just 16 (purple belt) and I was new to BJJ. I remember he had a grip from hell.
Old school = no guard pulling
To actually see a takedown is awesome instead of butt scooting.
I agree... there are schools out there now that require your to know how to Butt Scoot as Blue Belt requirement...
xGarrettThiefx I vouch for that they have us practice butt scoots like everday
@@lewhitey2544 Really?
Badr Saber he pulled guard on Buchecha and beat him.
I can only assume it's pronounced "Hoger"
Hafael and Hoger. Also Honaldo, Honaldinho, Hodrygo. But just Pelé.
Before I watched this I knew exactly how and it would end, and how fast it would end. Power and position rule the roost every time.
Roger = GOAT
Thanks
O cara utiliza o Jiu jitsu básico com muita perfeição. O Jiu jitsu na sua origem é isso.
He made it look so simple 😊
Fucken high level right there ! Beautiful to watch !!
I trained w/ Roger regularly and submitted him twice out 5 times. He did win the other 3 matches. Roger is the name of my MMA / BJJ practice dummy, he has a sneaky rubber guard.
Wow Roger just ran thru him
Love the DQ announcer on the PA.
Leon Tan "YOU HAVE FIVE MINUTES"
Roger is proficient in using the judo style, emphasizing hand fighting and gripping. I learn a lot from watching him fight.
Takedown-side control-mount-choke amazing
Dominou a luta toda, Rafael Lovato é monstro e ficou totalmente indefeso. Roger GOAT
So you aren't allowed to strike or kick in this style of fighting? Jiu Jitsu if I'm right?
Correct. Brazilian jujitsu. It's highly effective even against people trying to strike.
I think some people over look Rogers size advantage. When technique and skill are close. Size can make a big difference. Roll with someone only 15-20lbs bigger in muscle. You will feel a very significant advatage in strength and power. One factor in his sucess is he usually has the size advantage. He's very skilled and technical. Just saying his size must help him out power opponents.
Roger Gracie vs. Gordon Ryan
Roger é Roger 🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇🇧🇷🏆🥋😎
Wonder what lovato jr, a multi world champion, was thinking as he realized he was about to be choked out by this move
Roger is a little terrifying in his calm relentlessness. He reminds me a bit of Yoel Romero. Just so calm and skilled he can walk right at you and you dont want to touch him.
Roger Grace simples e eficiente como sempre
Tem que respeitar!

Roger king 🥋
The fundamentals are the fundamentals for a reason.
Dominação total. Jiu jitsu básico eficaz.
O Roger gracie só faz o básico e funciona. É um mostro no jiu jitsu.
2:57
Alguem gritou: trás a calculadora...
Kkkk
Será que era pra somar os pontos do Roger? Os caras são foda kkkkkkk

Perfect execution of BJJ Fundamentals. Komi-ashi @1:20 into a stack pass, to a inside leg pin to mount and finally a 4/4 collar choke....
I thought it was Kosoto Gari

You should watch John Danahar's clip where he says that "Roger Gracie is the best traditional BJJ practitioner ever". I truly believe that he would have even won over Rickson.
The fundamentals....bring home metals... lol keep it simple...B.J.J.🤗😊
I'm always amazed at how easy Roger and Marcelo make it look when they roll with other black belts.
tclass99 *world f'ing class black belts
Roger's game can be summed up in 2 words: *Basically Destructive*
What’s even crazier is coral belt master Julio Cesar perreira is reffing the match
Wow.. Now that was Jiu-jitsu. Calm, effortless.
"Pega a calculadora, seu Juiz!" Kkkkkkkkkkkkk rachei
How did the ref in the background keep concentration?
Roger has some of the best wrestling in BJJ (he's trained with GSP and others). That takedown lead to the easy victory.
That was judo.
treino jiu jitsu e me Inspiro no jiu jitsu do Roger.. só o basico q funciona
Ô Jiu do Roger não é um Jiu coml atual...
Um arroz com feijão que lhe consagra toda vez ! Oss

Just another day at the office for Roger
Eu só fico calmo assim como o Roger quando o salário cai na conta KKKKKKKKKKKKKK
Eu sentado aqui na cadeira ja sinto a pressão da montada do Roger, pqp!
Jesus, he makes that look so easy!
Rojer was so dam good that it's even boring to watch, is like getting is not even trying.
Incomparável!
Nice ! True masters
Strip the grips and walk away. Strip the grips. walk away.
I’m new to jujitsu only a month in training so don’t kill me but is that some kind of baseball bat choke?
Everyone knew Roger specializes in that specific choke. However, once the deep collar grip is achieved, Roger will finish the match via choke.
Please explain why they still compete in a gee... sorry for the mis spelling of gee
Roger Gracie, the GOAT, shows up to fight looking like a judo black belt that is trying jiu jitsu for the first time 😅
Was there some beef there?
Roger makes it look so easy.
Roger é um ET 👾👽
i feel like the cross chock is the first thing you learn and the last thing you master.
Feet glued to hips. No escape.
