  • Our first episode on Renzo Gracie was centered around his contributions to Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. In part two we focus on the legendary stories surrounding him. Whether it’s live tweeting a street fight or walking into the favelas of Rio to find his stolen black belt, we savor the adventures of Renzo. Grab a hot cup of cocoa, dim the lights, wrap yourself in a cozy blanket and enjoy some Renzo bedtime stories.

  • Intelligent, passionate, technical, wild, tough, hilarious, all of these traits are contained in Renzo Gracie. It is unusual to have these characteristics in a single person because they seem to be conflicting with one another. That’s what makes Renzo so fascinating. One moment he can be in a fight where he shows grit and brutality, twenty minutes later he is in the locker room smiling and laughing with his opponent. On top of his complex personality, he has also produced some of the best jiu jitsu and MMA fighters of all time.

    This week we talk about a master of martial arts and one of jiu jitsu’s most entertaining characters.
