List is an absolute joke, plain and simple.
Braulio dosent get an honorable mention? Jacare probably should have made the list. Other than that your picks seem solid to me. Thank you for posting.
Aoki should definitely be much higher on that list.
The Loge - Having Aoki at number 9 ruins that lists credibility. The rest of the list is rather disjointed as well but Aoki should be at the very least in the top three (number one IMO).
.
Jacare & Maia
Is ronda that good or is her competition that new to bjj ..,,
Fuck that list
WhereInTheWorldIsRicardoArona - Haha just cause his last name is Gracie
Ha ha.... No... Not really because of that.
Thanks for taking the time to do this. If people disagree, do your own list or at least be respectful. Content like this adds to the discussion on here. Why bother just pissing on it by saying 'list is a joke'. Come up with an alternative and contribute.
Thanks OP.
irishrottie - No maia on the list but you put in roger gracie? at no.1? Who has he tapped in the top 10 ten....even top 20?
Its isnt just about submissions but also positions.
Also Ronda is a judoka not a bjj player, maybe change the title to best grapplers.
ronda does train BJJ however she is a Judo player too. Her game is not purely Judo.. It's not the Top ten MMA fighters in MMA its the TOP 10 BJJ players in MMA.. Maia hasn't had a sub since 09 -
badboy92 -joe lauzon
Love Joe he should def make it on the honerable mention.. This is a tough list that can go on forever..
Is this the most decorated bjj player in MMA list or best bjj for.jiu jitsu list?? Pretty big difference imo
Mma*
now after his first MMA fight and win Braulio Estima need to be considered as one of the best BJJ fighters in MMA today.
Stupid list is stupid
No jacare? Cant take list seriously.
Purgey -The Loge - Having Aoki at number 9 ruins that lists credibility. The rest of the list is rather disjointed as well but Aoki should be at the very least in the top three (number one IMO)..
Nate ahead of Aoki? While Nate would beat Aoki in MMA Aoki has better grappling skills.
I don't think you really understand BJJ and I'm going to guess you've never really done any yourself. Submissions are not the end all, be all of BJJ. Maia hasn't found a sub in a long time but that is because all his opponents do is defend. His sweeps, passes and positioning are all flawless. Having him omitted from the list removes all credibility. Same with Jacare.
Lauzon should be in that list. And amazing as Drysdale is, he has yet to fight any worthy opponents.
