World Combat Championship 1995 full event

renzo great guy in person

renzo does seem cool but he does lose his temper.
once he was cornering almeida (who held guillotine seconds beyond the tap) and marquardt hit him after the fight was stopped… renzo kicked him in the face

yeah I was in a band with a Brazilian drummer…SUPER chill dude…then I did something to piss him off one time in a van riding home from a gig..MAN the death stare I got. Then the next day I apologized and he was back to the It’s All Good Man…person, lol.

Paulson was only in it, because Chad Stahelski (training partner of Paulson) the man who went on to direct John Wick , had a stuntman job coming up the following week , so Paulson took his place.

Yep that’s him. I just read the various letters Bozetepe sent to the Gracie’s and then I watched footage of Emin - he would have lost badly to Royce .. I think Rorion would beat him too .. but yeah, Boztepe seemed very confident when he wrote his letters

Who’s I’ve never seen that.. he kicks his students opt after the guy Taps? Das boolsheet

Great event .. Didn’t get to watch it live. My older brother had coworker that watched it and mad a vhs copy. The only thing I didn’t like was the stupid striker bracket

Another Ratt mma event that rarely gets talked about was MARS - Martial Arts Reality Superfighting.. it had an 8 man tpurnament with Bustsmante and Tom Erickson and a super fight between Oleg Taktarov and Renzo Gracie .. this was a fight I was hyped for - a true battle between 2 great grapplers and Renzo knocks him out with an upkick :upside_down_face::upside_down_face:

Whatever happened to Levine? He ran a pretty good org for awhile there

Erik should have just gone full MMA and choked him out.

….until he isn’t, lol.

Oh, yeah, MARS was pretty cool. Though the Bustamante-Erikson was frustrating because Erikson refused to go to the ground with him. They finally had to call it a draw.
