   It looks like they have all done this with Travis before. Either that or they are all high level BJJ players with decent standup. I’m not sure how much better I would look against a former Olympian.

   Saulo and Xande are both judo black belts along with being BJJ world champs. Heavy top pressure games most judoka would enjoy. A lot of their students end up emulating them.

   I like seeing videos like this when he’s going against guys that are clearly a step below him because you get to see the setups so much easier than when guys at his level are competing on the world stage.

   Travis is out-gripping those guys.

   1. He grabs his opponents lapel with his left hand (he’s a righty btw).
   2. Tries to grab the left sleeve of his opponent with his right hand to pin it down.
   1. When his opponent is focused on breaking his grip on the sleeve he deliberately releases it and goes for a koshi-guruma or ippon-seoi-nage.
   3. If he can’t pin down his opponents left hand he gets an overhand grip with his right hand. Afterwards he releases the lapel and grabs the other sleeve with his left hand.
   1. From the overhand grip he goes for an uchi-mata (he also did a fireman’s carry once because his opponent did stiff-arm him).

   Step (1) and (2) is basically Koga 101 and a great way to throw seoi-nage from an upright posture without dropping to the knees.

   It took me 30 seconds to realize I don’t think I’ll ever be this good at grappling. Beautiful randori.
