His stand up is a little sloppy but his Jiu Jitsu is sick!!!! He trains under Javier Vasquez and Ralph Gracie. Watch out for him in the top featherweight rankings soon!!!

the kid has dynamite in his hands. he is just coming off of a win of Micha Miller where he KOed him in under 1 minute. Grispi also out-classed Mark Hominick and was able to submit him in under 3 minutes after a dominating performance. "The Fluke" can win on the feet and on the ground and i am really interested to see how he progresses and how far he will go. he is only 19 (turning 20 in a month) so he definitely has a bright future to say the least.

Jose Aldo looked pretty good at FW in his fight against Pequeno. He's got great striking and I imagine his jits is pretty good to since he's out of Nova Uniao.

Jose Aldo for me, he has really good striking and he is a BB in BJJ. There's so many great fighters at FW, it's just that they've had so little fights that no one knows about them.....yet.
