    The Gracie Brothers breakdown the fight between Bigfoot Silva and Fedor and explain why it turned out the way it did.

    these guys are taking a not so subtle shot at Fedor's training and style. It's pathetic.

    Fedor destroyed Nog in his prime twice, who was the prototype Brazilian star 5 years ago. Methinks they need reminding of this fact.

    I didn't see any malice toward Fedor. I think you may be mistaking their sales pitch for their merchandise for criticism toward Emelianenko.

    People forget what Fedor did to big guys and how he has beaten previous black belts.

    I agree, he could have trained harder and tried to keep switching up his game but it doesn't discredit him as the greatest ever.
     
  10. Very easy to break things down after the fact. Sambo and BJJ has had just as many great fighters, in his prime Fedor dominated top BJJ fighters, now that he isnt in his prime he got beaten. Hey even I could probably beat the GOAT Ali today, age really catches with everyone.

    These guys forget that BJJ and Sambo came from the same stock and as good as these guys are at submission, Fedor is simply better.

    Its important though to see that these guys did respect fighters win loss or draw.

    Exactly. They broke the entire fight down, and show yet again why they are two of the most sought out instructors in the business. I learned a lot from watching that video. Especially when they explained how Fedor escaped the arm triangle, and pointed out how he snagged half guard. They even showed a way Fedor could have attempted to escape the mount by doing a move similar to the way Fedor was reacting.

    Great video.
