Ever heard of Ahmad Reese?Ricco Rodriguez was the heavy weight UFC champion. He had won ADCC Submission Wrestling World Championship in 1999. Silver 2000 Abu Dhabi 2000 ADCC World Championships (+99kg) Bronze 1999 Abu Dhabi 1999 ADCC World Championships (Absolute) He had wrestled in high school. He had trained with the Machados and won many of their events and many BJJ events in general. He was quite frankly their best student at the time. He was at the top of his game. He was the star. He was seemly unbeatable. He was not competing that day. He was too good to be competing. He was the guest of honor above all of us mere mortals. Then the annoucer after telling us of all his accomplishments put out a challenge to anybody in the audience if they would dare grapple this monster of a man. Ricco was 63 285 pounds. Who would dare grapple this man. Well, there was one man that stepped up to the challenge. Ahmad Reese. 5 foot 8 at best and around 195 pounds. He looked like a midget next to Ricco. But Ahmad Reese had one thing going for him. He knew leg locks. He had trained with leg lock experts including Gokor. A bit of inspiration for the guys competing soon. youtu.be/zpUropMLcR8
