Congrats on a great year! Looking forward to watching you in 2025

Will your opponent at CJI 2 be able to compete in this department?

Should this be a category for next years awards??

Biggest piece and forehead.

Best grappler? Best promoter? Best everything???

Thanks

What’s graped? Is that how they make wine?

@JiuJitsuOracle-lz9yf graped is when there's a banana entering a part of your body...but it's not the mouth...well in some cases yes but that's another strory which btw is very disturbing

@Clesmgram781 The things you learn online... Although not sure why it's graped when a banana is involved.

Calum’s a street fighting legend, like a cross between Ryu and Zangief

​@@JiuJitsuOracle-lz9yfdoes he do any other martial art?

He did, but he’s like a mystical, wise, old grappler. He keeps his powers hidden until he needs them.

It’s definitely in consideration.

I’m not taking any haircut, style or fashion advice from any jiu jitsu players. Get to over 40 with a strong hairline and you can do what you want. Any haircut is great. Having hair is great.

You really should take advice that hairline is as far back as your crown brave the shave shaggy it’s time.. your old enough for it to not look weird

@@MurDrumHD Keep the comments coming. It helps with the algorithm. Let's see how you're doing at this age - enjoy the nervy wait.

@ just say thank you for the comments then, no need to get all triggered because someone mentioned you look like the main character of a sting video

@@MurDrumHD My response kept the comments coming. It worked perfectly.

Good shout. It would be interesting to see if Dorian’s style of passing could keep him away from Mikey’s leg entanglements. And on the flip side, if Mikey could get a hold of him.

You’ll be loving the next year then, with AIGA, Polaris and CJI doing them. 2025 is the year of the teams.

Craig vs Mikey could be fun. Although there's a big weight difference, especially as Mikey is committed to competing at lighter weights even for him. Also, I'm not sure about the exclusivity of Mikey's FPI contract and whether he can compete for other promotions. But the match and the build-up could be entertaining. I wonder if Craig will look outside of grappling for an opponent, maybe a big name from MMA, or a former fighter. - Ross

@@JiuJitsuOracle-lz9yf That's a good point. Maybe Brian Ortega given their run in on TUF in the lead up to the Volk fight.

It'll be a great spectacle with the teams around the pit (or alley as they say in CJI). I think there should definitely be some women's matches on the event and Ffion as P4P #1 should be in one for sure. - Ross

Cheers. We’ve got another chat with Shay coming soon. We’d love to get Big Mark back on. We’ve spoken about those two guys and the likes of Cammy Donnelly who compete internationally. As for shows in Scotland, Stoom has done a good job covering them. - Ross

Thanks. Who would you like us to speak to? I’m up for trying to get more interviews if people want them. - Ross

@@JiuJitsuOracle-lz9yf Eoghan O'Flan would be a good one. In your neck of the woods and always brings the banter. Levi Jones-Leary would also be interesting heading into CJI 2.

@@Shaka_Garami Thanks for the suggestions.

Interviews would be great. Suggestions: Levi, Espen, Shay, Tarik. And please include technique and match breakdowns if you can.

@@Flyingworm An interview with Shay looking at where the grappling game is and where it is heading should be recorded soon. As for the other guys, good shouts. Thanks for the suggestions.

He’s definitely firmly on my radar now. Hopefully he has a muscle sweep tutorial somewhere! Love seeing attacks from closed guard. - Ross

Maybe I’m stuck with it…

We know you've all your own channels but if you ever fancy a chat with us about CJI, please let us know. We'd love to talk to you. Cheers.

Yes - Marcelo on CJI 2 would be great. Hopefully his One contract isn't exclusive. - Ross

Thanks for the comment. I (Ross) will gladly use more football analogies. I’m a big fan of college ball and the NFL. Calum’s all about the NBA. But he’s young and there’s time to convert him. I had a busy weekend (it was championship Saturday after all…) so I’m yet to see BJJ Stars but it’s on the to watch list.

Thank you!

Thanks for the heads up. We'll keep a look out for him. - Ross

Fair points - Kaynan's strength of schedule in the ADCC isn't the best. But, he beat who was there decisively going 7/8 on sub wins. Hopefully someone books Kaynan v Nicky Rod - seems like an easy storyline match. - Ross

Good question. Where are Calum's glasses??? All suggestions welcome... - Ross

The trifecta separation has been decided and will be revealed in the final part. Calum's pretty strong on the #1 Perhaps the way we Scots roll our Rs added to the ear hit...

@@JiuJitsuOracle-lz9yf we'll see... can make arguments for each Always heard it pronounced like Hawnee

It’s a pre-made tier list, I then added a bunch of people too it, Nicky Ryan and a few others were already in it but don’t make this tier list.

Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it.

When it comes to top level BJJ and certainly ADCC lots of guys are on super supplements. Some have failed tests from other tournaments. Some have spoken openly about taking PEDs. Some deny it altogether. We can't know who is and who isn't on PEDs for sure. Or who was and who wasn't. We're not going to guess or speculate. That's a minefield. We're just ranking the greats based on their credentials.

Suggestion noted. We'll look into it for the grand finale of the A+S tiers.

It is tough to get a good system. The first idea makes me think of Antonio Inoki seeing an awful pro wrestling match in Japan, walking out and ordering it to be stopped. Maybe we need a Gordon Ramsay-esque promoter to come out and call off any boring match, then berate both competitors for their inactivity. - Ross

If guys are given the chance to do it right but the consequences are too severe to the opponent if they do it wrong, I think it should be banned. Blame the guys who do it wrong for ruining it for everyone else… - Ross

I reckon rather than the specific rules CJI had a better mat space and a better roster of guys to put on exciting matches. Although as we said on the pod the one scoring thing that we both disagree with is delaying the awarding of points. - Ross

That’s an interesting match and I’d like to see William’s awesome top game v Levi’s awesome guard. But for storyline I’d go Andrew v Levi first seeing as they never met at CJI. William v Kade makes sense as Kade beat Andrew. Or could do an Andrew v Kade rematch with Tye v William also on the show. - Ross

Also Kynan V Gordon will never happen IMO. Gordon isn't gonna be healthy enough.

Guess which one of us rates Rog higher???

Thanks
