- The legend Rickson Gracie talks about the difference in cultures between the Japanese and Brazilians. We also dive into the critical aspect of learning for this white belt generation, and the JJGF purpose for the progress of the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
man, if everybody could listen to what he has to say... the guy is a fountain of knowledge. A true master
Rickson is just fkn brilliant. Whenever I hear him speak I spend the next few hours consciously having to force myself not to speak in his voice, shit's contagious.
+Straya Mate Yes indeed. Master is very humble in person too.
The Well Spoken Bogan haha, yes! I love the way they say jiu jitsu
Interviewing him you have to be self aware of the legend in front of you. Thanks for stopping by.
The Well Spoken Bogan yer i know were yer comin from,so humble,the best of the best,he seems to demand respect without asking for it,true legend.
Rickson is not a fighter - he's a WARRIOR! Listen to him and you may actually learn something. There's far moe to life than fighting...
Rickson is a role model for the sport, what a legend!
+McBryde Mats He absolutely is. Thanks for your comment and checking out the video.
Mr. Helio it's gone,we still have Rickson. He is our father now.
What an Honor to Interview Rickson Gracie, One of the Best Ive seen.
Hey guys. I appreciate the comments here. Let's keep it without insulting each other. Thanks...
I am glad the Gracies realize that there is a difference between jiujutsu for sport vs jiujutsu for self defense which was the original aim for their art much like the japanese jujutsu was
+Mario U (emokid64) Thanks for your input and viewing the interview Mario!
Ricksons a true master and a genius
+Bill Moua yes Bill. Thanks for stopping by.
Rickson Gracie is always amazing to listen to
TheRealHero1 thanks for the viewing time and he is an amazing man.
Sakuraba has developed a similar, almost mystical reputation in Brazil. He is very respected, and in a different way than Rickson. When he arrived in Los Angeles to graple Renzo.- The BJJ community showed up just get a glimpse of one of the gratest lutadors in history. when he entered the arena limping, and smoking everyone was stunned.Maia said 'hes the man. No one could touch him in his prime."
Fantastic interview. Rickson Gracie is a true master of his art...so much to learn from him.
+tpl555 Thank you for watching and your comment. I appreciate you tpl555.
Just his vocal tone gives me chills
HookRightGoodnight Agreed. Thanks for peeping the video out HookRight!
what a great man..you can almost see the aura of power around him
that being said jits isnt enough for high level mma..hes gonna run into someone he cant get to the ground with great striking,
That was the fastest 32 minutes of my life. I felt like I wanted it to go on another 3 hours! I also see you did a Gokor interview that I'll watch next. I would have sold my soul to see them fight. I would have found a way to put up the big money they were asking for back in the day if I could have. I didn't know there were actual talks a few times until they were already past. Great interview!
Timothy thank you for the very kind words. I appreciate you and hopefully more interviews to come...
Amazing interview! Thanks to you and to Master Rickson Gracie
Thanks Carlos and I appreciate you...

Aneron88. Thank you for watching, subscribing and your kind words. I do my best to field questions that we would want to hear in fan and journalistic method.
awesome interview. i agree 100% what he said about changing certain rules to make it it more effective. this is the main reason why i train in BJJ is to be effective not to win medals....screw the medals in my opinion. i want to be able to defend myself on the street.
Vien, great point. I also want to thank you for your viewership sir...
thank you 4 bringin it,
much love from the netherlands!
keepupthegoodwork
Praises your way Harold!

Rickson is the man, great interview and great job letting him speak and asking relevant questions
Thank you The Dean. I appreciate you watching the episode.
Rickson is aging well.... I trained with a guy that grew up with Rickson, he said without a doubt Rickson was the best...
+funkyflights Great to know. Thanks for watching the interview funkyflights.

Carpejkdiem. Thank you for your kind words. Honestly, I was asking myself "how am I going to interview an idol/legend?" But when the camera/radio signal is on; I become a broadcast journalist. Blessings right back at you! Regards...

Indeed and thanks for watching LyricallyDemonic!
Wonderful interview, and even more props for answering the feedback in the comments section. (And we all know how sketchy the comments section can be). Great job on the interview and the questions. Something about Rickson's voice is just calming.
Christopher you're the man bruv! Hopefully I get to meet the good folks and thanks for the view and share.

Thanks for watching Matthew!
Rickson is the man. I totally agree with his words.
Bruno thank you for checking out the video and I appreciate you.
I found myself nodding stupidly at everything Rickson said ahah bringing my face close to the screen too LOL. Fuck me im fanboying way too hard
Understandably so brotha. Thanks for stopping by!
Great video thanks for posting.
Les thank you for watching and I appreciate you!
Solid interview. Great questions accompanied with deep answers
Professor Rickson's ideas tell me that he is a very wise man and knows what he is doing. I would definitely vote for him to be the first Planet Earth President (but I think he wouldn't like that idea anyways )
Maxim, again many thanks more to come!
Great video. When the professor brings up his dogs, they are important. We ask a little more about his babies...lol!
Thanks for watching Jason.
Parabéns Rickson
Great man, true master....
off the hook...
the mestre explaining his wisdom, good job man!!!
respect
Thanks for checking out the video Harold!
Mario Sperry said watching Royce Gracie compete was like going to a museum of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
Thanks for the comment David!
I just started BJJ last month. I just got done watching "choke". I am now fully infatuated with GJJ/BJJ and want nothing more but to excel and progress in it. Im 27, and I wish I started younger, but I am in good shape and have a ton of passion for this. I enjoy it more than anything in my life so far...
+sunny bono Great job and good luck Sunny Bono. Thanks for stopping by!
Love, desire, and passion are ALL you need to be great. Train hard, listen close, relax and have fun. You'll get to where you want to be. It WILL be HARD. Embrace that and you'll be black belt one day. I came back to my MA at 28. Got my Black belt in 7 years training 4 days a week, 2hrs per class. Now at 42 I am the successor of my dearly departed Uncle/Grand Master's dojo. I wish you ALL the success in the world my Martial Arts brother! Oooss!

Thank you for watching Rich.
Really insightful interview.
Phill B Thank you Phill B! More projects to come this fall!
I'll stand by.
Thank you sir.
thanks for sharing PlugOneTwo
Thanks for watching Yan! Happy new year!
Dude, good interview. I like all the old school guys. Journalism are stories either good or bad.
Thanks G Figueroa!
Great interview with a legend. One critique I would make is that you insert some comments at times, instead of letting Professor Gracie talk it out. Just my two cents, and heck, I'm not the one with the honer of capturing this interview. OSS!
Thanks for stopping by and work is in progress.
PlugOneTwo I respectfully disagree with this comment. When you have somebody like Rickson Gracie speaking, let him talk as much as he likes. The man is a legend and doesn't waste his words, so why would you want to add comments...
I was actually thinking that I love your approach to this interview, you let him talk and gave him gentle direction when you wanted to steer the conversation a different way. Great interview with a legend.
Legend
Priceless Learnings wow
+Faceless Void Yes! Thanks for stopping by Faceless void...
love Rickson Gracie true gent and legend
Thank you for taking the time in watching Cosmic Bono...
Well, this guy knew mayweather would win the fight :D
Amazing interview, thanks to both of you!
sarimavired Thanks watching and commenting brotha!
Everything he says about Brazil is the same truth about the Philippines. Growing up here so many people live in poverty but still they enjoy having parties and being happy in their situation. It's just how it is
+beatrice lim Thanks for posting and adding insight Beatrice.
Great interview
+JesusisGOD Thanks and I appreciate you watching the episode!
I struggle with his comments on cross academy training. "why should i give you my time and love"... you can keep the love but I will pay you thousands of dollars to show me the techniques. I played football for over 10 years and would play for different teams and representative areas in the same year. After years in BJJ there seems to be this fading idea of it being some sort of secret. It's a sport at the end of the day, and a academy is a business with customers. Sometimes I want to roll and train with my friends across town.
+scott123 thanks for your input Scott123.
Very enjoyable interview.
+WestcountryDude Thank you so much WCD!
bravo fantastic interview
Anoop thanks fot he kind words and checking out the episode!
plug one two im interested in helping rickson develop the software which he mentioned to network his school to the rest of the world mma schools..big project ,,see if you can ask rickson if he be interested in me assisting him develop it. my family owns a small software development company,,,
Will do Anoop
Great interview :)
Thanks you and I appreciate you Darragh!
Another great interview... The one with Eddie Bravo is great too!!! I wonder why Rickson picked Joe Rogan over Eddie?? hahahaha... That must be great to talk to the masters and legends like that.... Thanks for posting and sharing!!
Thank you for watching GH1505150 and I appreciate you!
Main cultural difference between Japan and Brazil, in Japan, they respect the guy who's beating their guy, in Brazil, the brazilian team insults the opponent all fight long, just learn 3 words in portugese : "filho da puta", which mean "son of a bitch"... now, just watch any Gracie video, MMA, dojo challenges etc, and just count how many times you'll ear "filho da puta" by the brazilian camp...
+Debiruman1666 I agree it's a cultural thing and that japanese people tend to be way more respectful. But think about what master Rickson said, brazilians are very emotional people. If you're a fighter, you know that in a fight there are millions of emotions going through your heart, and millions of thoughts through your mind. It's normal to shout that kind of insult (and we have many more in portuguese, believe me). But in another environment, even a competitive one, brazilian tend to be polite as respectful too.
This is the jj man !!! but I was interested when he said 'we feel be in a box in American ' .. maybe Brazilian people must to feel be in a box too, with strong rules and severe penalty for anyone.
Victor Yamanaka Thanks for watching man!
Rickson Sensei..
+Iron Heart Indeed iron heart. Thank you for your viewership.
Great interview. It would seem to me that any type of competition JJ is nearly mutually exclusive from combat JJ. And although reforming the rules may make the sport more exciting and slightly more realistic (to a real fight) its still a long way from a street situation. Certainly the mission of trying to get the JJ schools to refocus on the true meaning of JJ and its self defense applications in combat is a worthwhile endeavor. I just don't see a significant correlation in "that goal" versus modifying sport JJ current rules. After all, the over riding philosophical principle behind Gracie Jiu-Jitsu is "survival". Certainly that principle in no way fits into being successful in competitive JJ. I respect Rickson's opinion more than just about anyone in martial arts so I would appreciate anyone that has insightful feedback.
I found it very interesting when he sais biggest jump should be from white to blue
Yes and in a way i don't doubt him. Thanks for watching fulaan1
Thank you i oike this video
Thank you for watching Jemuvegen
Amazing stuff
Thank you for watching and stopping by WLB! Merry xmas!
Good interview. Question: How did you accomplish the shifting camera angles? Multiple cameras? Thanks.
5 cameras. 4 on sticks and one roaming. Thanks for stopping by TM!
half-filipino dude watching this in 2015
+rewtr Thanks for watching man!
6:00 I Love the Idea that BJJ is a Chess Game..
Thanks for watching Mark!
i hope that jgff will work with ibjff, they have some sort of database of competitors i think
Can't agree more stalling is killing jiu jitsu
Yes. Thanks for stopping by keyboardbeats.
please guy's before talks about Rickon English. ...dont forget he's not american...but Brazilian. ..so try you guys speaking portuguese....
I m tkd black belt but wants to learn jiu jitsu but there are no gracie jiu jitsu classes in INDIA
+abhinay singh I'll ask around Abhinay. Thanks for stopping by!
Great interview! But, I wanted to know what type of dogs he has. He wanted to tell you. You didn't ask. lol good work, messing around.
Gary Papelian Haha! Thanks for the comments and taking the time to watch the video Gary!
Rickson is spot on about stalling !!!! I think the exact same about mma now, more so the UFC !!!!
the UFC does not show mma the way it was meant to be, it has turned into a joke to be honest. look at Miocic... beating hunt, he musta stalled a minimum of 20 times. I think he leaned on mark against he cage at the end of 1 round for about 15 seconds without even moving or trying to attack or advance positions.
when people understand this they will notice it a lot more. stalling is not fighting. stop idolising guys who stall like gsp etc. these people exploit rules to win and do not win based on the actual FIGHT which is totally against the whole point of why mma fighting started. it makes me sick to see referee's allow guys to lay and not advance position or strike. the ufc has the KINGS of stalling. I feel like if I paid to watch that shit I would be sick to my stomach that I pay to be entertained and have to sit and watch a guy dry humping a leg. the fighters are PAID to entertain !!!! if they don't then they are basically sticking a middle finger up to anyone who does pay to watch it !!!!!
5 min or 10 minute submission only (no points) , if time expires.....sudden death, first point wins
Thanks for your comment and watching the interview airmaxbri.
lyoto machida and ricks on sound the same
Bryan Truong So true. Thanks for watching Bryan!
oss
Oss!
How have you been brother? It's Gerard lol
Good pare how are you?
00:02 min
Rickson fights falling asleep :-)
+Nicolae Cioloca thanks for checking the video man!
I dont think his right. A person can study Bjj in the morning and sricking at night. That is what Wanderlie silva did, That is how they train in the Chute Boxe- Kicking ,punchung and later BJJ. Silva came out of there and was a great muay thai fighter-Knoxking out many of his rivals and a great Bjj fighter.
I fear his wisdom
Thanks for watching grassy knoll.
PlugOneTwo For sure, man. I dig your interviews
Thank you brother!
Try legend!!
Good interview but not sure about saying "correct" constantly to Rickson.

I like how he said the country have a big lack of education. Yeah , including him...
The martial artist has to adapt to the martial art , not the opposite.
It's not because you're brazilian that you have to forget respect and say that your challenger is a son of a b... , a motherf..r...
One thing the Gracie will never understand : the practice of martial art teaches you to respect yourself , to respect others , including your challengers . It teaches you humility and kindness , 2 things that the Gracie absolutly don't know.
All the asian real martial art master have those qualities.
The Gracie are doing fight sports , not budo , not martial art. In their "method" , there is no education , no philosophy , no way (do) , nothing that could make you grow and become a better person , except if your basicaly a stupid punk thug.
P.S: I WON T ANSWER ANY COMMENT LIKE : THE GRACIE WOULD KICK YOUR ASS ' , etc...
Great post man, I am 100% with you on this one. And it's sad because they could have brought so much more to the martial art rather than just winning some UFC/Pride fights and then make a fool of themselves by disrespecting, complaining about the referee's decisions, accusing their opponent of cheating, bending the rules to their own advantages...
Why Rickson's ears are perfectly ok ?
nobody good enough to grind them into the mat?
epicfluffingfail ikr, but to be as good as him, you have to fail sometimes while you spar..
My Prof also has good ears and doesn't wear headgear. I'll have to ask him tonight. Will report here later :D
epicfluffingfail thank you mate ;)
My prof, being the humble guy that he is says: "I've been lucky". I asked him about Rickson's ears and he says: "Hard to put pressure on Rickson".
i suplexed rixon gracie in CARLSBAD KALIFORNIA
NEW rule no jiu jitsu on your back shit in the first round people want to see stand up fights and teeth knocked out broken jaws type of shit .Jujutsu in the first round is boring plain and simple you still have 4 more rounds for that shit
too scared to face sakuraba
Either way, thanks for watching it man...
