Grippo joins us to discuss his opponent change for Who's Number One, his experience competing in Kazakhstan, and his journey on the UFC BJJ reality show.

• Sharing the recent change from facing Owen Jones to Max Hansen at Who's Number One
• Breaking down why he felt confident against Owen's leg entanglement game
• Reflecting on the surprising quality and camaraderie at the AIGA tournament in Kazakhstan
• Describing a tough loss via leg lock that served as a valuable learning experience
• Revealing behind-the-scenes details about the UFC BJJ reality show, including competitors staying in hotels rather than the house shown on camera
• Discussing the innovative UFC octoball and why its no-reset format improves jiu-jitsu as a spectator sport
• Explaining his transition from obsessive drilling to ecological dynamics training with Keevan
• Reflecting on why adaptability and openness to new approaches has sustained his career
