Weidman won that match. The most amazing part is he just started training JJ in 2008. This is 2009. Shows how great of a talent Weidman is, and how good of a BJJ trainer Matt Serra is
Hahahaahahah I tought this was Ricardo Arona...the midget jr version lol looks like him soo much....by the way Ricardo Arona is the goat in bjj abudhabi look him up he's the best ever
Unlike other point Jiu-jitsu tournaments. ADCC is all about submission & wrestling which is very welcoming for grapplers of any discipline like Sambo, Judo, Wrestling etc. It's not strictly Jiu-jitsu. In fact Jiu-jitsu guys had to adapt to ADCC rules where you get points from takedowns, sweeps, and throws. As a result Jiu-jitsu practitioners also learned how to wrestle. Chris already got the wrestling part covered he just needed a bit of Jiu-jitsu knowledge to counter Galvao's submission techniques
On mat number two we have a winner, Glover Texiera. Really gives you an appreciation for how long that guy has been relevant, he's been around longer than Weidman and just had a championship this year unlike Weidman who hasn't been close to one for a very long time
You are right, but Weidman was Middleweight Champ, too. I mean, maybe he's not "relevant" nowadays, but he had his time. That's enough, I would say, this man is 38 now, he has to prove nothing anymore. 🙏
Weidman broke his foot. Like, it snapped, like his publicity is from fighting, so if he doesnt fight, Chris won't be in the news. I don't know what you want from him? Rob a bank? So he can be on the news....
@@stevend481 a high level wrestler can transition to high level submission grappling relatively easily. Body control and mechanics are all there to be a savage at the sport. Especially learning under Matt Serra.
Dude was literally a UFC champion, NCAA D1 and trained by Matt Serra. If he is a bad grappler.... The level of grappling in MMA is usually much better than the level of striking.
okay why is nobody talking about the fact that Weidman practically won again someone who is considered one of the greatest in this sport with 1 f**** year of jiujitsu?
@@marcoduvall4404 yeah you both lack it. The fact that he did so well is so king and incredible. If you threw Andrei in a wrestling match after 1 year of training he would get raped
@Dave he was also beating Rockhold as well. He doesn't attempt that absurd wheel kick and that's a W. It's more mental errors than anything. Look what he did against Lyoto who fought at 205 as well.
Chris could have absolutely been an ADCC’s champ if he had never went to MMA EDIT: Just to be clear for everyone, yes he absolutely made the right choice going to MMA. All I’m saying is he definitely would have been an ADCC Champion if he decided to commit to grappling
Bruh Chris won purely off pressure and position awareness he was never in too much danger but he was able to land himself into a couple really good positions
@@TheRealEricRose wrestling and BJJ are both grappling arts. Only a person that sucks at both will act as if there is no carry over between them. Stop fan boying.
How about those D’arce attempts? That was close. Galvao got a sweep or two and then points for getting to Weidman’s back. I think. Weidman got points for a takedown but not sure. Galvao went to his knees instead of standing which may have been a way to avoid giving up a takedown. I am not real clear on ADCC rules.
For all those guys who say Chris won please tell me where he won, I don't see a guard pass a sweep or even a take down in bounds, I saw Chris show alot of pressure and scramble out of danger, Andre swept him twice and held him down took a beautifull back take to arm lock attempt and threatened the sweep and his back throughout the match. to chrises credit he had Andre's neck in trouble but to no avail. Andre was also alot smaller.
Andre was deep in a darce and a Peruvian neck tie . Andre could not put Chris in danger a single time . He had no real submission attempt the whole match and kept getting swept every time he tried to take Chris down. Not to mention Andre was exhausted and Chris looked good at the end. This is coming from someone who hates Chris wiedfag
he had multiple sub attempts locked in, takedowns, and his whizzer alone embarressed galvao anytime they got a hold of each other. are you blind? he had andre rolling around like a pregnant cat for 10+ minutes.
Points count at the last five minutes of the match in which galvao took his back at some point . After that weidman didnt manage to pass his guard or score by any other way.
Galvao should be embarrassed by this match. Makes it pretty obvious what a guy like Bo Nickal could do if he focused on grappling. Weidman after one year of jiu jitsu pushed a champ to his limit lol
Jiu-jitsu is not westling my people that's why Galvão won. But very good fight for Weidman he showed lots of power and explosion but even better Galvão cause he was all the time doing guard against a westler probably heavy than him and for more than 14 minutes. I saw a Weidmann a bit lost in many situations and Galvão patiente as a very good jiu-jitsu fighter has to be.
The sole reason weidman has been able to install that choking position was because of the referee reset when they got out of bound, galvao initiated a sweep and they ended up resetting, but the position they ended up was still a dynamic position where no control was established; the thing is, they had to restart and thus all the momentum that galvao had during the sweep attempt was gone, plus the position and grips were unclear so the referee have placed him in a really shitty spot ( from half guard to an half guard with the knee passed, almost the ending sequence of a knee slide pass ) and in a static position with no momentum with every grips and controls in favor of weidman; thats why they contested so long the resetting position, it wasn't fair at all, plus weidman agressivity trying to establish a better position during the reset made it even harder for the referees. From a technical point of view galvao is clearly the superior player here, his victory stands logically
@@jonasjorgensen8759 the first half is no points so they encourage athletes to go hard for submissions. Then after the half way point. The points kick in. Andre though getting dominated was on bottom. Swept to top position and held it for 3 seconds of control. Honestly if Chris had played the rules better. Good chance he would’ve won. But that one sweep killed him.
After watching all his matches and contrasting them with Gordon’s, I see Juicy Andrea getting absolutely cooked in his match with Gordon. Boy better fake an injury while he still can.
I have a feeling Gordon is going to get hurt in the Heavyweight division and then still do the super fight and get out pointed. He's taking Galvao too lightly by doing both. Pride comes before the fall.

That Chris guy is tough I think he will be a champion someday
Weak sauce
These jokes are so lazy
i still feel like Chris was the best technical wrestler in MMA, because of his take down skills without using the cage. His single leg is unmatched
Thank you!!!! I thought I was alone. He rarely used the cage
GSP was the best wrestler with a non-wrestling background.
@@doctorgonzo5358 definitely. Weidmans first Silva fight camp was actually with GSP and wonderboy
@Dave he was definitely beating Yoel pretty easily before being caught with the knee.

Chris Weidman had all : strengh, explosion and cardio.
Salve prós Brs 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
How did Chris loose that match? Clear winner IMO.
The first half of the match is no points .. the second half he never secure jiu jitsu points .. he was heavy top pressure but no points for that ..
Wrestling has a really heavy carry over to jiu jitsu. Matt Hughes, Tito Ortiz, and Ben Askren made it very far in jiu jitsu as well.
And Jake Shields
how in the hell he won the match!!!!!!!
Points count at the last five minutes of the match in which galvao took his back at some point . After that weidman didnt manage to pass his guard or score by any other way.
What ??? Galvao won ??? why ? he was almost darced and choked many times ... that's really weird a point system.
Weidman dominated all along.
Galvao fights for the rules.
Really good match
galvoa can play the point game, nice to see a necktie tho
its all he got
Chris widman such a relentless athlet . Never give up atitude great example of opponent
Reminds me of the rodriguez brothers !! Always pushing forward
Galvao should be embarrassed by this match. Makes it pretty obvious what a guy like Bo Nickal could do if he focused on grappling. Weidman after one year of jiu jitsu pushed a champ to his limit lol
