Erberth Santos Is A Savage, And So Are His Leglocks

Name the most intimidating black belts you can think of. Guaranteed, Erberth Santos is on that list, and with good reason.

At the recent Sao Paulo BJJ Pro in Sao Paulo, Santos won the gold medal in the ultra heavyweight division by beating Igor Silva of GF Team in the final.

The technique that finished the match was a particularly savage-looking leglock that Santos slapped on midway through the match. Not only did he submit Silva, but he also showed great strategy and awareness by dragging his opponent back into the area to avoid a restart and losing the position.

A reminder -- if you needed it -- that Erberth Santos is a freaking savage.
