150lbs to be correct.

The whole idea of martial arts, and specifically BJJ, used in Vale Tudo (Anything Goes in Portugese), was the ability to fight larger and stronger opponents. Helio Gracie is 145 lbs, he would fight opponents my size and bigger, and win.

Minotauro is the best Heavyweight BJJ guy in the world, and proved once again, ZZHHOO ZZZHITTSU rules.

Now back to Sapp, you do know he beat Ernesto Hoost, right? With minimal training he was taking out top K1 guys who's been fighting for years.
