Rolled Up/Interview Thursday: Samir Chantre



As I recently read about Samir Chantre's rise to prominence, becoming 2010 NoGi World Champion and beating Zak Maxwell via DQ at the recent Las Vegas Open at the IBJJF podium and as he was featured on IBJJF TV's most recent episode, today's interview comes in the form of a Rolled Up Episode from Budovideos and has some sweet stuff from half-guard.

Click HERE for the video and support Budovideos. Their coverage of the IBJJF and broadcasts (technology glitches aside) of the Pans and Mundials has only brought more Jiu-Jitsu to the masses and to us hardcore fans as well.

Samir discusses how he got into the sport (his brother, shocker, right?), his progression to black belt/faixa preta, and his move from Brazil to the USA.
