Marcello Garcia

I know it is pure grappling and not MMA but his control and movement are phenomenal. Several things made me shake my head in awe. He makes the grappling look effortless against high level grapplers. Like a snake in that he gives no space and punishes opponents for giving space. When there is no space he creates it and captialises by sweeping and attacking. Like a ball in that he seems compressed. Rarely do you see him long in the leg for more than a fraction of a second. Like a rucksack as you are going to carry his weight and thus expend more energy. Like a ghost because he seems to sweep with consummate ease and evades attacks with almost a contempt. Like a wet blanket because he is always on you. All of him is on you
