Great display of discipline PJ. Thank you for respecting such a legend as you did. True class. Haisam needs to learn some of these lessons from you. Peace
richie is a class act man, kept his composure when haisam was looking like a little kid. nothing but respect for richie going over to try and talk with rida. glad ridas team knew he was in the wrong
Super dirty fighter smh boogeyman is a class act. Can’t stand rolling with people like this. Like he ain’t throw that elbow on purpose with the sweep smh.
This was the first time I saw this fight, and I have to say I lost every drop of respect and sympathy towards Haisam (that I didn't even knew I had to begin with). And that's so true, I can't stand to roll with ppl like Haisam. Injury risk is pretty high. 😅
QUINTET is easily my favorite grappling competition and there's so many great grappling competitions. Thank you, FloGrappling, for making this accessible!
@@TheUpgrade101 You sure about that? I distinctly remember Craig saying on the B Team video of the quintet preview mentioning Haisam on Team Sakuraba as a "fellow teammate." That video was uploaded 8 days ago so it seems like you're just lying for no reason.
@@shaneroberts2492 bro what are you talking about "spazzy white belt". It's competition and its high pace and high intensity. It isn't about soft. chilled, relaxed rolling. The elbow was not intentional. These things happen all the time
Not to defend his poor attitude, but to be fair, someone as competitive and skilled would be frustrated when your opponent is just hiding in his turtle shell till the time runs out. That is the sport and its fair game, but I can understand how Haisam felt too.
Richie at two elbows from Haisam. He can't contol his temper, and showed nothing but disrespect to his opponent, opponent's team, his own team, the fan's there watching, and a bad influence to kid's who may be getting into grappling. Sakuraba was go watch coming in on short notice.
My only complaint is the short time limit for each match, and the way they handle a tie breaker. Also feel cages are better suited to prevent going out of bounds and needing stops for stand-ups or repositioning.
Commentators: this new haisam, he's calm, he's technical, it's almost like we're looking at a new fighter... Rida then rocks richie in the mouth with an elbow, super aggressive collar ties and then just starts shoving. Then after going the distance, walks away from his team crying. That's some embarrassing shit. Learned nothing from training with Craig i guess...

I was happy when Haisam joined B-Team and he seems pretty nice in their videos. But this was a pretty embarrassing performance. Maybe Martinez gave him a reason to be that upset but I did not see it.
@@martymiller6565yeah a couple days ago. I recommend not looking up the results until they post the video. It’s going to be very action packed in the final
I love the format that quintet provides. I wish that more organizations adopted this style here in the states. Imagine the same weight restrictions, however, I go against local teams with a representative from each belt. So I would be the black belt instructor, choose a brown belt from the Academy, a purple belt, and so on. That would be awesome.
In the end you would get a lot of brown and black belts competing with blue belts. Carlson Gracie was famous for shenanigans like these, putting monster brown belts against blues. Competitition dude
Well, our guys compete regularly and are known at there belt rank. I’m not saying your wrong, but our Blue Belt just took IBJJF worlds (at adult). …and most of the meaningful academies in our (Bay) area, from CTA to Gorilla, also have well established schools/teams. Especially with the guys within the IBJJF ranking system. So I don’t know.
I’m not sure if people know but Eddie is broken . I also think the usage of juice has saved sakus body over the years . I could be wrong but I remember listening to a podcast where Eddie talked about injuries and It made me think if I wanted to continue jui jitsu .
There is a cowardice when it comes to disqualifying people in BJJ and I don't get why. I am a fan of Rida but he should have gotten a warning right from the start for the slap and immediately disqualified for the elbow. This is not MMA, and that nonsense makes things personal. Complete class from Boogeyman, dude stayed composed even though Rida deserved to get punched in the face.
ok, i am a dick, i wasnt happy that sakuraba was competing. but that was a great defensive showcase and the embrace after the match with PJ almost made me cry. sakuraba is living fucking legend.
Probably angry with both Richie and the referee. The interlocking fingers shenanigans, the almost constant backing away from Richie (he can just stall since 10th Planet was in the lead) and the ref standing them up while he has a dominant position. Rida really needs to learn to control his temper better. Opponents are going to be annoying/shady occasionally, but that doesn’t make okay to storm of pouting like a child afterwards.
I said holy shit out loud when i saw sakurabas name and face in the thumbnail, a fucking legend competing in my favourite jiu jitsu tournament, fuck yes
Who would’ve thought that Sakuraba would beat all the Gracie’s but Ralek 20+ years ago. Then go on to compete Jiu Jitsu all the way in 2023!!! Gracie’s brought jiu jitsu to America, so it’s just wild to see it from this perspective.
O corpo envelheceu mas o Espírito Samurai permanece forte e firme lutando com lhe restou. E você vê isso nitidamente quando o cara quase sem respirar, claustrofobia, sem força contra oponente mais jovem, mais ágil e não bate num triângulo de mão encaixado .
Saku was instrumental in my inspiration to start practicing MMA, I am so grateful to share the mats with that tough old bastard
Great display of discipline PJ. Thank you for respecting such a legend as you did. True class. Haisam needs to learn some of these lessons from you.
Peace
First time seeing you compete, you handled this perfectly. There are competitions outside of competition and you won. Absolutely fantastic sir.
There were a couple of times you could’ve yanked on subs but you didn’t. Well done man
Na próxima sakuraba te vence
If your last name was Gracie he would have smoked you. Be grateful.

100% something about team vs team + the ruleset
Perhaps but I wish they'd tie.flat Earth to the competition a little bit more since Eddie bravo is involved
yeah I really like the team vs team and the announcers sound so good
There's just something about the format that makes each match a real scrap compared to IBJJF or even ADCC. It's really great to watch!
I know PJ was taking it a bit easy on him but Saku's speed and coordination for his age and mileage is insane. He has some wild genetics.
A legend and always a beast. Loved the sportsmanship between the two at the end.
That was so amazing!!!!
That was art! Thanks PJ!
Felt the same. Started easy and then seemed like he genuinely was sub hunting at the end but Saku was extremely crafty.

More fight leagues should post their matches to youtube. It's a great move and gets more people into the sport.
Amazed at Boogeys restraint and sportsmanship after Haisam’s classless performance. Like Nicky Rod said, “emotions make you weak”
Haisam definitely let his emotions control him and the unsportsmanlike behavior he showed definitely isn’t a good look for him
He was getting thrown around like a fuck doll. What do you think he could do.

Richie threw a couple bananas at him the evening before
@@oldironsides4107there’s no way that’s true lmfao what
hes had a string of losses, think he just really needed a win. oh well, sure he will learn from all this
Black people they always are an issue
I think the organizers should let Haisam cool off for a season or few.
or all of them so he can try his hands in mma lol
Yeah he seems like a dumb spazz
Haisam couldn’t finish an old man half his size. Then acts like a punk. 😂
I've met boogie in person. He's massive and extremely athletic. Also a competition bboy.
Used to train at boogies gym, you are severely underestimated that dudes abilities.
You had to say half size? Why? To make some non-effectual point. Boogie is huge. He may not have the muscle mass of Haisam but not too far off.
11kg difference isn't exactly half his size. And Richie didn't get anything done the entire match.
