The Grapplers Perspective

#38 - Jacob Rodriguez - Jay Rod: Pound For Pound, I Was Better Than Nicky Rod a Year Ago


Listen Later

Expect to get the everyday perspective on Jay's first impressions of the UK, his recent Polaris loss, his ADCC reflections, his thoughts on steroids, growing up and training with Nicky Rod, his competition prep, Craig's chimp strength, the B-teams best kept secret, why John banned him from training with DDS and much more. 

Jacob Rodriguez, commonly known as Jay-Rod, is a professional grappler out of B-Team Austin and ADCC -88kg silver medalist. He is a former folkstyle/scholastic wrestler who first gained notoriety in the sport of Submission-Grappling/No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu after his performance at the ADCC (Abu Dhabi Combat Club) United States Qualifier in 2022, a tournament he won while holding the rank of blue belt in BJJ, a rare achievement also accomplished by his older brother, Nick Rodriguez (2019).
