I don't think Werdum is overrated. Werdum, Demain Maia, Jacare and Roger Gracie have the best BJJ in MMA. Only thing about Werdum is that his wrestling is not good. I did not state Werdum is over-rated, I stated Seanus is over-rating Werdum. He's a solid HW. who's biggest advantage (other than his technique) is his length and recovery once getting tagged. He can beat anyone but can get dominated by someone who employs a conservative but chippy top game. And it's inexcusable for someone at that level to have nonexistent take downs, regardless of the kind.
There was no way he lost to Mark Munoz. That was a crappy verdict. I completely agree. Maia is tons of fun to watch and his willingness to test his striking is another reason why this is so.BJJ is a solid discipline and I'm still waiting for For4 to come up with some known names. Where in my post did I write Polish bjj players are "known names?" What constitutes a "known name" in your definition?
Eh, he's the World Champion and a great benchmark, that's what. He's synonymous with BJJ That person doesn't exist in Poland and I never stated they do. But probably Maciek Polok is going to be that person down the road. Marcin Held is going to be that person. I honestly have no idea what point it is you're trying to raise. I'm losing patience with you in that you seem to be angling for an argument. What are you actually trying to get at?
Look at the original post, the point you seem to be taking issue with simply isn't there. I'll condense it for you so that it's easier for you to understand: the bjj grass roots movement is really starting to produce some strong international contenders. You're going to see better and better guys competing for Poland in the future.
Do you compete here? Do you train here? Do you follow international tournaments? It's pretty impressive to see so many guys have stuck with it here for years.
