He had so many sambo matches in brazil that he forgot the rules when he came to America. Thats why he lost to Tripp (Mark or Ron I forget which one beat him).
You know how good you have to be to go 450-0 in Sambo while not knowing the rules? Real good!
Rickson
Hugo was no joke, like many of the LL guys. Always wondered if there was any other bjj guys that could have beat him besides Rickson. Same with Zulu. It was like, “Jiu Jitsu is the best! But only our greatest guy of all time is our only chance.”
Was an 18 year old Rickson really bjj guy they thought had a chance vs Zulu? Doesnt do much for the “BJJ is the best fight” argument.
The true family champ was George Gracie.
In all fairness to Rickson when he lost to Tripp it was because the rules were similar to Judo I believe… he got thrown quick and that was the match. It wasn’t like he was submitted or finished. He claimed he didn’t know the rules but… lol
Does Rickson think hes the best in the world at sambo and judo too? Would he beat everyone at freestyle wrestling if he knew the rules?
Rickson thinks he can beat Channing Tatum at Magic Mike.
Flow with the go
Yeah, I thought that was weird. He conveniently left that part out.
Ahhh the Charlie Z method of record keeping…
I’m currently 480-623-216 by that scale.
How many subscribers you have on YouTube now?
I thought he was being interviewed in Japan and had been asked about his record, and came up with 400-0 off the top of his head.
Which is bullshit. You’ve always been able to finish a sambo match with an ippon-type throw if you remain on both feet and they land flat.
Sly dog picked up another 50 wins while no one was looking.
There was a list at one time of Rickson’s wins.If it was real or not don’t ask me.
Since he don’t include Ron,I’m very skeptical of his statement.
400 & 0 or 450 & 0 is such a round number.
watch you mouff
Great point.
Really? That list was proven fake as soon as it popped up. The names were ridiculous and the dates were unrealistic as well.
Please do better
