WHO’S COMPETING ON THE BJJ STARS VI CARD?
Felipe Pena – an ADCC absolute champion and a multiple time IBJJF World Champion – had won the previous BJJ Stars heavyweight title earlier this year, by winning against Luiz Pena, Erich Munis, and Gutemberg Pereira; all in one night. His adversary for the heavyweight title, Patrick Gaudio, is the 2020 European Open Champion, and has won matches against Erberth Santos, Lucas Barbosa, Victor Hugo, and others.
It’s set to be an exciting match, that will certainly feature lots of top-level grappling.
Lower on the card, there is a really exciting No Gi matchup between Matheus Diniz and Lucas Barbosa. The two have met in competition previously, for a number of times. Diniz won their last encounter… But it was Barbosa who won the first four!
Also, the two-time ADCC champion Yuri Simoes will meet the IBJJF Gi and No Gi World Champion Mahamed Aly, in yet another No Gi match.
