Vinny Magalhaes: The Perfect Combo of Old and New-School Jiu-Jitsu

Vinny Magalhaes is one of the best grapplers in the world, and he'll compete on this weekend's Submission Underground presented by Chael Sonnen and FloSports. 

The ADCC winner is a technical and dangerous grappler with a long history in the sport. And as he's focussed the last few years on an MMA career, he feels his style is well-suited to the EBI-rules that Submission Underground will use. 

Even though I've competed a lot in the gi, I feel lately my game has moved toward more the submission than the points system.

"Vinny is one of the few guys that bought into both schools of thought, the old-school jiu-jitsu – Saulo Ribeiro, Rickson Gracie – and now this new wave, the 10th Planet, Eddie Bravo's rubber guard... Vinny can do it all."
