“Hélio Gracie made comments that he never wanted to teach a guy bigger than 175 pounds. That Jiu-Jitsu wasn't for the big, strong guys, it was for the smaller and weaker people to be able to defend themselves against those big, strong guys. When you teach those big guys you're basically teaching them how to beat you.”
