Rickson's thoughts on the evolution of the art/critique of competition/MMA, his take on jiujitsu as he ages, "invisible jiujutsu," modern competition-centric techniques, and so on.
Fascinating stuff that should give people an appreciation of BJJ as a gendai Budo versus combat sport:

Hi Kit,
Thanks for posting this one -not got time to watch at the moment but I'm looking forward to doing so; no doubt it would have passed me by without your post.
All the Best,
William

There's a common sound to this interview which is echoed by many of the top BJJ guys but sadly it's a message which is often missed by many because of the general (not entirely unwarranted) perception of the art as being tied to mma and practiced by meat-heads.
All the Best,
William
