Rorian and Rickson gather together some of their top teachers/top belts and head to Coronado Island to grapple with US Marines.
This was like a pizza delivery for Gracie in Action. You don’t have to come to us to try your luck.
We come to you for the butt kicking. “Special delivery–a submission…Tips are appreciated.”
The Marines look at them and wonder: “What are these skinny guys in kimonos going to be able to demonstrate to us?”
Rorian asks for the strongest Marine. They have him put a headlock on the Gracie’s smallest representative. The man in question was only a purple belt who weighed about 155. And then the action starts.
This is a late-night video I shot in 2011 of Master Luis Heredia, born in 1962. The light was nil but the story is special.
Luis “Limão’” Heredia owns Maui Jiu-Jitsu and has over 15,000 former and current students. He spent his formative jiu-jitsu learning years in his 20s as Rickson’s “younger brother.”
His is a 5th-degree Master and has won the Pan American Jiu-Jitsu Championship 5 times.
