This guy looks pretty sharp. All around good skill.

Decent technique, I just cant stand all the stopping, I liked his takedowns, he has a good eye for openings. The kick that dropped the guy in his spot was very nice ( 51 sec mark ).

Just seems to me, someone who isnt going to turn and run or stop all together will instantly give him a hardtime... his gi seems a tad too big also : )

That's kinda like a couch potato saying that Michael Jordan had a reasonable jump shot under pressure.

Biamontti fought for a good period against the best point fighters in the world. He's known as an aggressive fighter with sweeps/takedowns a speciality.

Personally I always enjoyed watching his fights. You never quite knew what was going to happen next.
