Rigan competed this day in 3 competitions in the one venue, at the time it was a state or national championships for wrestling, judo and sambo. He entered all three and as he was on the mat in one he was called over to another to get on the mat and fight. If you or I or anyone else for that matter tried it we would fail miserably. He placed in all three either first or second. Much respect to Rigan Machado.

@19thaman79 I train but im not at your level yet,i train for about 2 years now.In Croatia Bjj exists for about 6-7 years so its still a very new sport/martial art.I train at Werdum Combat Team.And ofcourse i agree with you,every martial art and especially every grappling martial art mix very well with each other.I also apologize for the bad mouthing :)
@pcjudosambo Yeah i know,but considering how skilled Rigan is i wouldn`t be suprised if he defeated top level fighters either.Rigan is not a "normal" Bjj black belt.
i dont see sambo vs bjj here if bjj guy isnt thrown left and right then they are not on the same skill level put Fedor Emelianenko vs beginner bjj practitioner and bjj guy would be choked and armbared 10 times. what that proves? that proves nothing
You calling Rigan Machado a newbie at BJJ? Besides, sambo and judo dudes tend to toy with BJJ dudes at standing up grappling, since that's their emphasys.
Atahan Demolition Lol, I didn't post anything from wikipedia here, kid. Didn't you know there's more to information research than that? Post your sources of research if you want to prove me wrong on this point. That's essential for winning a debate, didn't you know it, child?
@pcjudosambo The fact of the matter is Tripp threw him and won, there was no true test of skill like in BJJ where if you though me, let's see if you can take me on the ground. You put those guys who are younger against Rigan who is older and fatter, and he would probably bust their asses if the gay ass ippon rule isn't applied,
A luta perde até a graça por conta do "comentriasta"...kkkkkkkk..quebra essa porra .... kkkkk " Canto tá?!?! 0 x 0 .... 0X0 ..poraaa. tão robandonessa merda... Bora Rigão quebra essa porraaa....kkkkkkkkkkkkkk

Machado brother's having fun. My master Jean Jaques in the background. Oss!!!
@ 2:20. I've never seen a throw so perfectly executed like that.
That's one skinny Rigan right there.

Amazing throw at 2.20
@19thaman79 Yes it is,openned up around 5 years ago here in Croatia :)
@19thaman79 He really is,he learned some Croatian aswell so its real fun listening to him saying it :)
the last guy got his arm jacked
7:00 I've never seen an armbar attempt and defense like that haha.
Deu uma aula de jiu-jitsu prós russos
@paulholcroft99 yes i know that, there;s a ranking system
who did he beat in the first match?
it was Mark Densberger, a looser that's now in prison. great Greco-Roman wrestler, but big time criminal!

@pcjudosambo In other words you're saying Rigan basically faced Bums, right? Perfect!
@19thaman79
No problem,i just thought you are one of those regular trashtalkers,guess i was wrong :)
Ребята это самбо?
Rigan is the man!!
@pcjudosambo I meant to say there are NO rank belts in Sambo
WTF, Rigan was being screwed every time.
Caramba!! quebra quebra..kkkkk
@vitorshaolin . mmmmmmm i dunno, rickson tapped him out twice in competition.
maybe a close second.
complete domination
haha.. 2:19 in - that guy got owned...
@pcjudosambo Yeah i know,but considering how skilled Rigan is i wouldn`t be suprised if he defeated top level fighters either.Rigan is not a "normal" Bjj black belt.
wow.... Rigan was tonk as hell
How good was that throw at 2:20! Loved it :D
Rigan's a monster :-)
OMG So many interuptions.... freaking rules.... learn em before competing...
@znjfl yap, agreed.
i dont see sambo vs bjj here
if bjj guy isnt thrown left and right then they are not on the same skill level
put Fedor Emelianenko vs beginner bjj practitioner and bjj guy would be choked and armbared 10 times. what that proves? that proves nothing
+Timba246 actually fedor got dominated by BJJ practitioner named Ricardo arona

+MrAlepedroza why are you posting something thats in wikipedia ? are you trying to be a smart ass? cause you really got exposed Imao

+MrAlepedroza you're a bitch you dont know shit really so u have to look up on wikipedia i told you you're fake

its because a submission isnt the end of the match...they keep accumulating in points
Makes no sense
Anyone who talks shit about BJJ takedowns, look at this video, esp, the second match+
