Real oldschooler with very impressive merits. BJJ lineage was a bit difficult to google, but diploma and pic in gallery with Rick shows first connection and found some really old mentions online connecting Rick and Kazeka, as well as this pic https://www.instagram.com[...]eTB/?hl=en . All combined good lineage, sufficient evidence and a very legit dude!
