    I just watched this video where Saulo fights Richard "Dickie" Martin, who by all accounts is one of the best Master level BJJ fighters in the world and taps BJJ black belts out for fun. I have the up most respect for Mr Martin (I was lucky enough to watch him do a seminar a few years ago, to say he is a beast is an understatement) but the performance here by Saulo is unreal:

    I also know of a high level BJJ athlete, who regularly competes and medals at BB adult level in the "big four" who said at a Saulo seminar, Saulo completely destroyed him.

    He just seems to be on another level.

    So this is a thread to celebrate the wonder and ability of one of the greatest living martial artists and teachers in the world today. If you've any favourite clips or stories chip in!

    i knew saulo was legit when i picked up jiujitsu university, and almost immediately was able to implement back mount and side mount escapes in my next session--without even practicing either escape before hand.

    One if saulos secrets is constant training with one person who knows his game inside out.

    it's probably xande's secret too, constantly rolling with his equally bad-ass bro.

    callsignfuzzy Is not a number!

    In addition to "Jiujitsu University" I'd also recommend his video series "Jiujitsu Revolution" and "Freestyle Revolution". The man is truly dedicated to finding the most effortless way to do everything. It's incredibly impressive.
