#TBT to that one time I attempted a Berimbolo 🤦🏻‍♂️ @ibjjf 2012 Mundials & had to immediately resort back to what I’m best at, Omoplatas 😁 I could have done a better job working towards the finish once I hooked his leg, but I made some mistakes & my opponent defended very well. Always tough battles with the beast @dimitriussouza ✊🏼

This segment aired on Father’s Day last week here on our channel 4 local news. Thank you to @dbuckingham4 for doing such a tremendous job telling our story 🙏🏼 I’ve been through a lot this past year, but through all the ups & downs having my parents, my love @deeana6, & my @lovatobjjmma family gives me the strength to persevere & keep climbing as high as I can possibly go!!!

So excited to see my brother @xanderibeirojj back in action on Friday!!! Arguably the most complete technician that has ever stepped on the mat, he is truly poetry in motion.

Posted @withregram • @timeless_jiujitsu The legend @xanderibeirojj 💎 is making his return to 🥋 competition this Friday @f2wbjj! Xande has provided us with so many incredible technical masterpieces over his nearly 20yrs of Black Belt competition, here is one of them. #TimelessJiuJitsu

To all the amazing dads out there, THANK YOU!!! Happy Father’s Day 💙

No better way to end a fight camp than doing the last round with my father ♥️ Over 25yrs training together & we are still at it. If I can survive him, I can do anything 😁💪🏼🏆 Thanks for being there tonight dad. Love you!

This is my very first highlight video ever 😁 Featuring my first few years as a Black Belt including my special 2007 when I became the first person to ever @ibjjf Grand Slam 🥇🥇🥇🥇 Lots of Brabos & Kimuras, not as much Mount. My game has evolved so much since then, but I’ve always been a submission hunter ⚔️
•
Interesting thing about my match against Hulk this Friday, I am the first person to ever Grand Slam & he is the last. His was in 2018 over a decade after mine. It will be a battle of the ages literally 😉

This clip is taken from @riccardoammendoliabjj new show on @flograppling. I had the pleasure to be his first guest last Friday as we broke down the story behind some of my classic matches as well as the mindset & techniques that helped me be successful. At the end, I had to show some love to all my opponents because without them I wouldn’t be the martial artist I am today. I’ve learned from every defeat & every victory. I’ve learned about my flaws technically & also my flaws mentally. As I’ve grown as a competitor, I’ve also grown as a person & none of that would be possible without the man standing on the other side of the mat/cage. 🥋🙏🏼

It’s Fight Week!!! @f2wbjj @flograppling #LovatoxHulk #TeamLovato

Little #throwback to a video I made a few days before my @bellatormma title fight. I visualized that moment & carried a picture of the belt in my bag for over 3 years since the day I signed with them. Your thoughts, when backed by definiteness of purpose, persistence, and a burning desire are very powerful things. See it, believe it, & never quit!!!
