2. Rick McCoy - a Sambo Practitioner and a 2 time National Sambo champion ( I dont recommend this video)

Hatmakers vids are awesome as well as Vunaks.....Mccoy is absolute trash as someone said before....Blauer is also really good him and vu are great at teaching realistic self defense....Kaman is a crazy ass old school Muay Thai fighter a true legend.Hatmakers vids are good for sub grappling and ive never heard of number 5.

Paul Vunak's tapes are great - I recommend them! But if you are interested in them, you should buy them directly from Paul http://www.fighting.net . Click on the PFS Video Boycott link near the top of the page for his reasons.

Just need to mention my background. I am at Gracie Barra, however I have also learned a few tricks basic techniques and concepts from Greco Roman, Judo and HapKiDo. My other favorite art is Boxing. I like to spar with ANY STYLE, since I believe it will get me out of the dreaded comfort zone. Before Gracie Barra, I was at a grappling school, so I began my training with leglocks, toe holds and neckcranks as valid means of submission. While my primary defense systems are BJJ and Boxing, I believe that I should go ahead and buy some videos to fill in the gaps and practice concepts applicable for the street and self defense, because Gracie Barra is ALL SPORT, and that just doesn´t cut the mustard !!!
