Kron Gracie & Tom DeBlass Brown Belt Match at 2008 Pans

Kron Gracie & Tom DeBlass Brown Belt Match at 2008 Pans

Here is a rare match that has just been released by the IBJJF. Kron Gracie, son of legend, Rickson Gracie, facing Tom DeBlass in the absolute of the 2018 Pan Championships.

Both DeBlass and Gracie had won their respective divisions that day and met at the Pan.

As a brown belt, Kron Gracie was on fire and had an incredible win streak with 51 straight submission! A world record.

Kron received his black belt from the hands of his father just one week before the 2008 IBJJF world championship. His black belt debut was a nightmare… Kron was submitted by Sergio Moraes, of Alliance, in the first match of the middleweight division. Sergio had two takedowns, and it was a tight match until the moment where Sergio passed Kron’s guard and even mounted. Sergio submitted Kron with a choke and celebrated wildly. Outside of Brazil, Sergio was unknown to the world BJJ scene at the the time. This victory over Kron made his name.

You can see DeBlass working his trademark half guard and deep half guard game but Kron was having none of it that day.
