There are a lot of jiu-jitsu guys that I love. But there are few whose game and intelligence I admire more than Demian Maia. Very much enjoyed this conversation between Demian and one of my favorite MMA analysts Luke Thomas.
one man's journey into a world of chokes, guards, locks, bars, sweeps, passes and strangles.

FloGrappling Previews the IBJJF World Championships
Aside from providing the best video coverage of grappling, FloGrappling's previews of major events are second to none.
One of the best experiences in jiu-jitsu I've had off the mat was listening to their preview of the ADCC in 2019. I was stuck in a hotel room in New York on business and spent almost every free moment listening to the FloGrappling team talk up one of the biggest events on the calendar. I can't remember ever being so excited to watch a grappling event (aside from maybe EBI 1 which debuted the same weekend I just happened to be in L.A.).
With any luck, the Grappling Bulletin's breakdown of the IBJJF World Championships - which start in over than two weeks - will do the same.
