Berkut had the pleasure of hosting another amazing tournament last night. A great night for bjj was enjoyed by the spectators as well as the competitors in voth the 75 and the 85kg divisions.

It’s very hard to pick the most exciting fight among the multitude of great matches.

The ACBJJ Grand Prix altered the rules a bit – 3 or 5 five minute rounds allowed for the victor to be dictated via submission or via points. The idea was to mix the old 1930s style matches with the new sub only wave.

The night marked a huge triumph for the Romulo Barral team as his teammates won both divisions – Gabriel Arges and Edwin Najmi.
