    Roger won that mental war. All the rest was consequence. It is incredible, that he made someone, like Buchecha look like a rookie. And make no mistake, I'm a big fan of Buchecha as well. Big respect for both legends.

    Lex, I know nothing in the real world about bjj but I'm a huge fan of it and have favorite matches I watch over and over. This one the most. I have always wondered how dannaher would explain the ending sequence which I find so brilliant but don't know why. I never dreamed we'd get to hear the master himself break it down. I so admire your slow curious pace and each question you asked. And so well explained that someone like me can grasp every concept. I have a martial arts and wrestling background so that does help, but consider this analogy: it's like a masterpiece in art ( I'm a professional artist by the way). Anyone in the world can appreciate its beauty but they don't know why. A professional or the artist themselves can point out exactly how they produced such and techniques they used. Like a magician showing you a trick then showing you how they did it. Bravo. That was special, and any time I feel like I can't make it, I go watch Roger take care of business! From the moment he grabs buchechas belt, it's over.

    Quote from an 11th century monk on humility: “Humility is true knowledge of oneself as one is”. Roger really embodies this when he states, plainly and without malice, that he knew going in that his jiujitsu is technically superior to Buchechas. It would be fake humility and a lie if he were to have said otherwise. He’s so badass without acting like a badass.

      He was smaller and weaker though. Buchecha is taller and was over 240 lbs. And Roger isn't a tool like the majority of the other family members. He's a humble, respectful dude.

No 6'4" lb. 220 Lb, man has any right, ever saying, hes the smaller and weaker opponent. How many smaller players did Roger, beat, through out his career? IMHO.

      How is that an excuse? It would be an excuse if he won. All he's saying is he's proportionally strong for HIS size, which is big, but not extraordinary strong. Seems pretty reasonable.

  • @jennifermackinnon6982

    Lex is a scientist yet has to have kilograms converted to pounds for him. As in when Roger has to tell him how much Buchecha weighed!!! Something doesn't make sense here. Scientists study solely in the metric system. How could this be? It's like an economist not understanding interest. Someone better check Lex Santos.
