Then again, I saw him tap like most of the browns that he faced at the 2005 BJJ Pan Ams held in Carson, CA. Plus he won the North American Absolute Division to the 2005 ADCC, right? He's good, but not in the top 20 grapplers in the world or anything.
He has also been submitted by a purple belt as a brown belt.........by ankle lock. I guess his freakily flexible feet didn't help him that time. But give him a few years, he'll be up there with the best of them. He has beautiful jiujitsu.

when i added jeff glover, i was talking about top competetors at their level.

I have seen him several times and he is very very good, and for sure he isnt one of the best grapplers in the world, but he is extremely talented and with time he is going to become an awesome competetor

you forgot feijao e leo santos two of the best bjjers ever (both much superior in BJJ then bj penn, matt serra, daniel moraes, ,rolls, etc) , plus I didnt see thales leite there, and shembri wasn't a meio pesado when he did BJJ compt

saying that if you putt "old timers" like romero cavalcantti yould put dede pederneiras e wendell alexandre. I would even put jair "lobo mau" lourenco in there, but I am biased

from all these guys that you left out, I guess you are not a NU fan...
