Marcelo rolls with Jake Shields in the gi

I'm hoping they have a no-gi roll between the two up soon.

Coooool match up. Had they been rolling for a while before this filming..? Jake looks shattered at about a minute in. Marcelo ties him up in guard, and sets up the butterfly hook so nicely. His base is awesome. Phone Post

They competed in no-gi before. Marcelo got a guillotine on him

I know. I'm talking about a no-gi sparring session on mginaction.

Jake's BJJ looks really good. Marcelo's skills are ridiculous.

I was rewatching sub x the other day and was thinking it would be cool to see them roll in the gi I swear Iam psychic sometimes Phone Post

Sub Phone Post

Jake actually gave him hell. He does not look very fun to roll with. Looks like the type if dude that goes 100% all the time. I got tired just watching that and also pulled my shoulder. Phone Post

Interesting to see Marcelo play his oma plato game so much. He has not really used that so much lately.

 Jakes pretty good. I would imagine he makes Marcelo pull out all the stops

Heels to the face in trying to get out of the
armbar is such a douche move, not surprised he
did it though

Just tap and move on, no need to foot stomp your way out.

 yup. like i said, i can't train with dudes like that. fuck that nonsense

Ridgeback -  It was very satisfying watching that dickhead tap out.

That was awesome!

You can see Jake sense of balance is outstanding, and Marcelo got him with basically the same sweep 3 times.

This vid is also great for explaining the using strength argument, both guys was using a lot of strength and power but at the right time. It becomes confusing for a lot of people including myself about the strength issue, it's ok and needed to use strength, just use it at the right time and the right manner.

I didn't really like the way Jake was using his legwork to escape the almost arm bar, however, i understand his mentality, he is a pro fighter very tough and he is not going to give in without a fight to escape a sub, i don't think he was trying to stomp, but trying to get his leg over Marcelo to gain leverage to aid in his escape.

Nice vid.

Jake is super cool. He's been a friend for a long time and will be back to train again Phone Post

Marcelo is amazing.

His butterfly hooks probably feel like forklifts
