In its 10th anniversary the BJJ Worlds had the greatest Absolute field ever, names like Roger Gracie, Ronaldo Jacare, Saulo Ribeiro, Braulio Estima, Xande Ribeiro, Andre Galvao and many, many other stars fought in front of a sell out crowd.
The figts were great and exciting, highlights were Roger gracie submitting every opponent he faced including Saulo Ribeiro in the semifinals - Saulo officially retired in front of the appreciative crowd with a speech and a cerymony in which he gave his belt to the victor Roger. Ronaldo Jacare, who beat everyone he faced including an in form Andre Galvao in the quarters by 6 x 2 (look out for him next year in the Absolute), and Braulio Estima in the semis to earn the chance for a rematch with Roger in the finals. Other highlights included Xande Ribeiro v Estima quarters finals, a festival of high level moves and sweeps with Braulio winning by 7 x 4 in the end and Eduardo Telles v Cranivata.
war echt eine beindrukende leistung vom roger. :halbyeaha er hat echt so ausgeschaut als wuerde er mit anfaengern rollen. das heist er hat nicht ausergewonliches gemacht, sondern seine basics durchgezogen. jeder weis wie schwer es ist jemanden zu submitten wenn er eine gewisse erfahrung mitbringt und einfach mal zu macht. Bei guten leuten ist mir esbis jetzt nur immer gelungen, wenn ich sie ueberascht habe (keine standadt technik, es schnell durchgezogen oder sie gelockt habe) und das wahren einige der besten black belt`s
