Murilo Santana is far from the most physically imposing man in BJJ, yet the middleweight has some of the most stifling pressure passing seen in any weight class. Once Murilo enters top-half it’s all but a forgone conclusion that he will put grind out a pass – no matter how long it takes, he will methodically work his way throgh the position until he's reached his goal.

Those looking for a masterclass in how to smother and dominate their opponents need to look no further than Murilo’s matches at the NY Pro with Robson Gracie Jr. and Nathan Mendelsohn. Sit back and enjoy the grind!
