  1. Been watching and listening to Brendan for a while now, also seen Brian Ortega's career rise and rise, love the Gracies and I think Rener is an awesome practicioner, a Master in BJJ, amazing teacher, (My teacher is Marter Francisco Mansur so nothing but repect for Rener's lineage) but please Rener, with all due respect brother, let Brian enjoy his shine, this is his time and I know he will be champion and for a long time, let him be, he is so super polite to complaint about the fact you and Brendan do not let him talk.
    Anyway, awesome conversation. But should have been purely about Brian "T City" Ortega.
