This is maybe what pulling guards for or in the real world. Walk the fuck away.
Before you fucking just get fucking smashed out here. You know what I mean? Thinking you're something you ain't.
Fucking get my neck. Let's go. You can't take, I will give you my back just to fucking get out. I don't give a fuck, man. That's great. That's great. I always like, honestly, when I, when I'm like, when I'm just at the dojo, like girls or smaller people, right. I try not to smash them. Right. And I'll tell them like, Hey, if I get on top, just fucking sweep me. Right.
Stay on top of me the whole time. And I just fucking let them go at me. Yeah, I would just pretend that I'm weak.
Hey, your Hickson is great, by the way. You've seen Choke?
I have not seen Choke, but I just finished his new book, the dark one. Dark? Hickson came out with a new book. I just audio-booked it the other day.
Yeah, but he's got the Breathe book, but he just came out with a new one. I just listened to it last week. You know what I mean?
I got to.
I know. I've heard that. For a martial artist? I've heard that.
Yeah. When he was testing me for my purple belt, he was like, Yes. Yes. Yeah. When I lay on the ground, I am flat. He's like, when you lay on the ground, you are not flat. You should roll more. I'm like, I know you know enough English just to call me fucking fat. You know what I mean? But God damn it. You should roll more. Yeah, I should roll, yeah.
And he's showing me like rolls from side control, getting out of stuff because I am more round than I am flat. And it's kind of like, you know, fat guys should roll more. It's hard to stop, you know what I mean? Right. So he had, there's some real fucking wisdom in there. You know what I mean?
But it's like, I always like how like they know enough English to assault you, but they'll say it like their way. You know what I mean? Yes.
Yeah. No, it's just real talk. And that's what he does.
I am the only person. So, okay. I had to do the paperwork. You know, there's other like big time Hickson black belts out there that kind of police up all everybody. So when you go to worlds or you fight, you know, like these guys and they told me they would, they'd get me under their paperwork. But literally I did the paperwork with IBJJF and I sent it to Hickson and he filled out the paperwork.
But like, I didn't know I sent him the paperwork and it's like one of them forms where you just sign it with your finger on your phone like super easy I sent it to Hicks and I was like hey coach we got a form we got a sign and he's not he's not a member of any of these organizations anymore so like I didn't know how this would go. And they're like, sent me a fucking paper copy.
And they're like, have Mr. Gracie sign this signature. Right. So I, I text it to Hicks and I'm like, Hey coach, can you sign my paperwork for worlds real quick? And he texted me right back. And he's like, Hey champ, I'm looking for a printer. Now, as soon as I find one, I'll sign this. And I was just thinking, Fuck, I don't even know who's got a printer.
I don't even have a printer in my fucking house. Like, if Hickson's looking for a printer, I think he just told me no. You know what I mean? Right, right, right. Like, fuck. And then, like, a couple days later, he sent it back to me signed, right? I think probably his wife was like, oh, Hickson, yeah, look. You know what I mean? I just didn't think – I think he kind of didn't know.
But he got back to me and then they sent me – I had to do this a few times. And then I was the only guy – I'm the only belted guy fighting under Hickson in Masters right now. Wow. Yeah.
Yeah. And then I would say this for jiu-jitsu for me is like – I'm so glad it is where it is these days because back in the day, I mean, think about this. Back in the day, I travel all the time. I'm in a different dojo fucking weekly. You know, I might be here for four days. I try to get three days of jits. I'm in fucking Waco. I'm going to fucking places.
I've been in 26 different dojos this year like doing jits. Back in the day, that was fucking criante. You know what I mean? Fucking monsters in Portuguese. Right. Right. Because you don't have no loyalty. You don't have no fucking. And the reality is like, yeah, I'm just never home. Right. I don't want to be unloyal to anybody. I'm loyal to everybody, but I just want to get rounds.
