No Holds Barred: Kid Peligro on Why ADCC 2011 Was The Best Ever
On this audio edition of No Holds Barred, host Eddie Goldman once again speaks with our colleague and correspondent Kid Peligro.
After covering the 2011 ADCC World Submission Fighting Championships, held September 24-25 in Nottingham, England, Kid has declared that this was the best ADCC event ever. Started in 1998, the ADCC World Submission Fighting Championships is the most important and prestigious grappling event in the world.
We spoke with Kid Peligro by phone Saturday about this event. He discussed why he was so positive about it, how the matches both were exciting and showcased an array of submission techniques, the significance of the successful use of many leglock and footlock submissions in this event, the incredible performances by Absolute champion Andre Galvao and many others, how this event helped fulfill the mission of ADCC, the relation between MMA and grappling, the predominance of lowest common denominator techniques in MMA today, what grappling can do to increase its popularity, where ADCC 2013 might be held, and much more.
