      @@Jake-df2zj probably BJJ practitioners would be more engaging and aggressive in taking the action to the ground(instead of being led to the ground). Another thing would probably be the exchange(punches and kicks) aspect of fighting being more present in BJJ fighters. His death has probably thrown MMA 20 years back. Our luck was Marco Ruas who was talking about that and became famous after becoming a UFC champion. But since Marco wasn't famous in Japan such developments got delayed, IN MY OPINION. Of course this is just an exercise, specially for those who had some contact with Rolls but no one can be sure.

      @@Abaramotorai absolutely nothing would be different in bjj,the popularity of sport bjj rules changed bjj forever toward an almost entirely ground style.Only the gracie university, rickson ,behrings and valente bros are still teaching combat BJJ. Rolls would be just another 70 yr old red belt now,he would have no more influence than Rickson .

      @@scarred10 You missed my point entirely. I was talking about the development of BJJ in MMA around 2010ish. That would probably be reached sooner if Rolls was around. Why, you might ask. Bc the idea that BJJ as it was practiced was enough was something Rolls was not selling. For him BJJ (or just Jiujitsu as we call it in Brazil) was punches, kicks, take downs and submissions. I am one that appreciate how open he was as a BJJ master compared to his counterparts in the 90's.

    I asked about Rolls at a Rigan Michado seminar, Rigan told a story about one of Rolls' students who was built like a gorilla bragging about winning a Judo competition. I don't remember the story exactly, but the student bragged about outmuscling all the other competitors and claimed Judo was bullshit. So Rolls' asked him to back up that claim, and ended up throwing him to the ground a 100 times. He obviously respected the art. Rolls was sick. "Rolls is my ROMEBOY" RIP

    Rolls was the most open minded Gracie , hé has helped to introduce news technics in to Bjj from judo,sambo even wrestling,. It seems like Carlos Gracie didnt learn all from his master, Gracie jj lacked a lot of technics ,for instance before thé fight between Kimura and Hellio Gracie they didnt not now about ude garami. Without Rolls bjj wont be what it is today. There are so manies Gracies pretending to hold shodan in judo but none of them are good as Rolls was.

      True. It's odd that didn't know about the Ude Garami (taugh ti them by a wrestler) or the Gyaku Ude Garami (they learned it after Kimura).
      It really weirds me out as they specialized on ground techniques, so why didn't they learn those techniques. It would be ok if they didn't know about something like the Tomoe Nage but...

    I trained with a brown belt from George Yoshidas school in Manhattan. George Yoshida was one of Kanos Black belts. He taught us Osoto Geri with a sweep that came down like a back kick from a high knee position coming across the mid to high area of the back of the calf. The judoka in this video uses a stiff legged swing. Is the way I was taught called something else, or it's just a different way of doing it with the same name?

    Teach Yourself Judo
    Hoare, Syd
    ISBN 13: 9780844239262
    to practice on my little brother.
    It contains all the basics. Throws, pins, submissions. In my opinion, those 3 parts are equal.
    Judo evolved into throws.
    BJJ evolved into ground Judo: pins, submissions.
    The first UFCs shows the deficiencies of each of the Martial branches.
    BJJ itself shows a deficiency in its own lineage, in a very very short time, in just 1 generation.
    The first UFC fighter that inspired me was Marco Ruas, truly the first modern MMA fighter, from the lineage of Vale Tudo.
    I have to give credit where credit is due. BJJ brings back Judo, and old school catch wrestling that people forgot.
