The more I hung out with Mr Sperry the more I liked and respected him. I felt like he was revaling his philosphy on the game to me. It was easy to see why people called him both 'the machine' and 'zen machine'
Saulo Ribeiro is back in Rio training hard for a string of up coming fights. He just shared the podium with his brother Alexande at the Arnold Gracie Tournament. Now we caught up with him working his wresting with Darrel Golar and working out with Paulo Carouso.
Chachorrao, translates to 'Big Dog' in English. His real name is Ricardo Almeida. He is Renzo Gracie's top Black Belt. He is Renzo's top sparring partner and he has helped Renzo prepare for his most recent victories. We caught up with him while he was in town working out with the guys from Gracie Barra for the Abu Dhabi trials. He's what he had to say.
We saw Nino almost everyday at Gracie Barra. This guy loves to train. I've gotten a few emails asking if we could interview Nino. Well we were on step ahead of you. We hooked up with him and kicked back. Nino is kinda a quite guy, but we still got some good stuff from him.
We caught up with Macaco at Copa Pacifica where he dominated his match there. This interview was translated by a friend of Macaco's from Japan. I think a little information got lost in the translation. Enjoy.
