Lyoto Machida and Junior Dos Santos rolling on the mat in an open training session to promote Machida’s Dojo’s all-new branch in Belém, Brazil.
WELL junior is looking good on the floor…. even though hes rolling with a much smaller lyoto machida…. get my boy fabricio werdum in there and lets see how fast werdum would put them to sleep ;P
Santos couldn’t get top (Machida gave his back @ 2:15) against a smaller Machida and Machida didn’t look like he was in much of a hurry and Machida got and regained dominant position several times. I predict Junior won’t be taking anyone down anytime soon.
@dddddddddddddddddddd
You put Werdum with JDS and you will see ears wiggling again.
I shouldn’t be need ing to say this, but that is just a TRAIN. All these “predictions” are pointless, and yes, werdum is much more accomplished on the ground then JDS. It’s obvious !
why the hell is Lyoto doing this s*** and not preparing to fight Jones right now??
I’m not sure how you think guys prepare for fights, but this is it… not hitting tires with sledghammers and running hills dumbass.
Like Chael said, JDS got his BJJ belt from the Nogueira Bros. aka a Mickey D’s Happy Meal. Explains his suckage on the ground.
Frank Mir proved that.
Good video for Velasquez to watch… if only he can get Junior down to the ground.
they are training here guys this is probably 40%. if you have ever gotten to any level in bjj u would know to train light and practise technique. try training instead of having an input for something you have never done.
Both of these guys are stand-up fighters so all they need to know is how to get out from a bottom position. If they master a few sweeps and are experts at submission escapes, they will be fine.
Two True Warriors right there!
I knew that as soon as I saw Machida on top everyone was gonna be startin’ something. You guys are ridiculous. I am glad for freedom of speech.
Not to mention, this was to PROMOTE Machida’s gym, so of course JDS isn’t going to try to tool him in front of a camera, he was there to help Machida and his gym look good.
If you notice Machida is wearing gloves JDS is not.. this was training for the Bader fight (Machida’s gym has been open for a while) JDS didnt get a black belt for no reason.. why show your ju jitsu when your boxing is so crisp? work to your strengths

didnt frank mir loose against jds?
machida wins
VERY light rolling here.
@1999,
Yea but he also snapped nog’s arm like a twig, which is what he is referencing to.
They were just going light guys. None if that represented their ability. They were just rolling light gettin some work in.
@LoneRonin — hmm.. why would Lyoto be grappling with JDS..a 6’4 heavyweight..oh, that’s right. maybe because he will be fighting 6’4 Jon Jones soon! That’s why.. Lyoto IS preparing. ![]()
